His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 578

There were no clues from the handwriting. As Lily read the letter, she felt the organizer had invited her to play detective. 'Is this a test?'

She smiled, put the letter down, and picked up the small vials. They were just ordinary perfume bottles. Although the letter mentioned making at least two different scents, six bottles were prepared.

They seemed confident that Lily would accept this challenge. However, she began to wonder if those who made it into the Perfumers' Society had also gone through this.

Whatever the case was, Lily decided to fully utilize the whole week to take a good look around the yard and familiarize herself with the environment.

There were all sorts of plants in the yard. Indeed, it was as the letter had said. However, they all seemed very common. There was a shed in the backyard where the supposed laboratory was. Although it had quite a few pieces of equipment, it still was not the complete set.

Indeed, this place was strange at first glance, but now that Lily had had a proper look, nothing was out of the ordinary—even the plants and the equipment were nothing unusual. With that said, it was challenging to come up with new fragrances if Lily were to rely on the things she had around her.

As fellow perfumers, they should know how hard this test would be. Was this dilemma a part of the test? At this moment, Lily decided to go out to take a look at her surroundings.

She was about to leave when she realized the person who helped with her luggage had locked the main door. Lily had no means of leaving. She took out her phone to make a call and realized she had no signal.

On her way here, Lily did not recall it being in a remote area. There was no way she could not get a signal in the city. The only reasonable explanation was that there were signal jammers installed here.

‘Did they honestly have to go this far for a test?’ It sparked Lily’s curiosity about the person who wrote the letter.

"Mr. Russell." Edward was hesitant as he looked at his boss' face.

"Is there still no news?" The voice was so cold that it sent chills down the back of anyone who heard it.

Edward shook his head. "I can’t trace it. However, madam has indeed arrived in Kingsland. That's for sure. It's just…"

"Tell me!" Alexander's voice was cold and stern. He had reached the end of his patience.

"Yes, sir!" Edward hung his head. Although he was surprised by the news, he still truthfully told Alexander everything. "The Perfumers' Society said they did not send out such an invitation, nor have they invited madam over. So…"

'It is all a fake. I have no idea who sent the letter.'

If this was true, no one could predict what would happen next. Edward did not dare even to think about who was bold enough to send an invitation under the name of the Perfumers' Society. Most importantly, they could not tell it was all a ruse.

"I've been under the radar for too long, haven't I?" Alexander said as he slowly looked up at Edward. The sharpness in Alexander's eyes could slice one's neck. Edward had seen this look on Alexander before, and it was frightening.
