“Forget about it. I know she's a perfumer. Maybe she made the perfume for herself. That's why I can't find it," Brittany said disappointingly.
Arianna shook her head. "Look at you, giving up easily. Why didn't I notice before that you’re not persistent in pursuing things you want? I wonder how you chased after Alexander for so many years."
Initially, Brittany knew there was no woman by Alexander’s side, and neither in his heart, so she firmly believed she would have a chance, that they were soulmates. However, she noticed how Alexander looked at Lily and instantly lost all the confidence she had gathered for years.
Alexander had never looked at Brittany how he looked at Lily. Not even once.
"Whatever, I can't find it, and I don't know how to make it either!" Brittany self-deprecated. What was she thinking? How could she win a man's heart with a bottle of perfume?
"Are you stupid!" Arianna said while grabbing Brittany, "You don't know how to make perfume, but someone does! Is that woman the only perfumer in this world? She's not the top perfumer, but if you think the perfume might be useful, look for it! Also, you can find someone better to make a better perfume. It's not necessary to have the same perfume as hers.”
Brittany had to admit that Arianna's words touched her heart very much. She would have already given up, but when Arianna said this, she started to think again, ‘Arianna's right. There were many perfumers other than Lily. There are so many top perfumers, so it’s not impossible to get a better perfume. It’s just a matter of price.’
"But...it may not necessarily be because of the perfume..." Brittany said hesitantly.
"You said it may not be, but it may be too. You have insisted on it for so long, so you have to take the opportunity to try it. How do you know if it will work if you don’t try? Since things have already come to this, you should go for it, am I right? "
Every word of hers made Brittany's hesitation disintegrate bit by bit.
"Do you know any top perfumers?" Brittany asked after some thought.
