"Work?” Jenny shook her head. "You are not a team member, as you've not passed my assessment.
Therefore, I won't arrange any work for you."
Jenny added after a brief pause, "If you insist on doing something, then you can do the chores if you're willing to."
"I'm not! I’m a perfumer. I know my role and what I should or shouldn’t do." Lily said bluntly, "Although cleaning isn't a degrading job, it's not one I should be doing. Since you need three days to determine the content of my evaluation and there is currently no work arrangement for me, I'll await your news, Ms. Gray.'
Lily smiled faintly before continuing, "Oh, and if you haven't come up with suitable content for my assessment in three days, I'll assume I’ve passed your test and can officially begin working.”
Jenny did not expect Lily to counter her response, and Lily did not even put on a show. Jenny had assumed that after being suppressed, Lily would try her hardest to impress her, even if it meant doing odd jobs like chores.
It was true that perfumers' hands and noses were essential and needed to be protected. However, Lily was in a position where she needed to curry Jenny's favor, but she still refused to bend down.
Jenny was a little angry at her attitude, but she could not help but look at Lily differently.
Lily attracted a lot of attention when she left the room. The others outside did not know what Jenny and Lily were talking about and only saw Lily leave the building shortly after she came out. There were suspicions that both of them argued, and Lily resigned. This did not bother Lily. She wanted to use these three days to solve her mess with Nathaniel.
As soon as she got into the car, she received a call from an unknown number.
