The next day, Nina started working in 'The Fragrance '. Ella was so happy to have her there. As the new head of the technical department, it took her some time to learn the basics amidst her trials to come up with a new fragrance. Nina knows what she is doing and she is open to suggestions even from her subordinates. Her down to earth nature earned her a good name in the company. And on top of her own charismatic personality and beauty, the new scents the company launched into the market based on Nina's formulas became a huge hit in the market.
'The Fragrance' company monopolized the Fragrance market almost under just a week's time. What more, the company is receiving so many orders, that they had to increase the production to their full potential. They held another meeting to purchase new machinary to increase their production. They finalized an area where they will be opening a new production unit. Nina was informed about everything, but she gently requested Ella to keep her away from the administration side of the work. Ella laughed at her request and even placed a wet kiss on Nina's cheek, much to Nina's surprise.
"Nina, look at this" Ella all but ran inside Nina's cabin with barely restrained excitement.
Nina jumped a little when Ella rushed in unannounced.
"What happened?" Nina asked with a laugh.
Ella placed a stack of papers on Nina's table and pulled Nina out of her chair and started dancing. Nina followed suit with laughter. They both danced like loons for a while until Nina started to get out of breath.
"Now I need something to cool my body" Nina slumped in her chair and fanned herself.
Ella is so excited that she whirled around and laughed out loud happily.
"Now I am curious" Nina asked with a smile.
Ella sat in a chair opposite Nina and pointed at the stack of papers.
"Take a look" Ella said with excitement.
Nina looked at the papers with a frown. She didn't understand a bit except the amount that is listed in the bottom of the last page. Nina's eyes bulged out of her sockets when she saw the amount there.
"Hundred million dollars?" she whispered with shock.
Ella nodded happily.
"Yes, just our profits over this one week. Our perfumes are selling like hot cakes. Our company has never seen this kind of profits since it was established forty years ago by my father-in-law. What's even better is that, we received orders worth more than two hundred million. Nina, this is a huge hit. We placed orders for new machinary and finalized a site to build our new production unit. I never thought that I would be able to turn this company like this after my husband passed away. I thought that I might lose this company forever. This entire credit goes to you" Ella said softly and honestly. She is not at all feeling jealous that Nina is taking the limelight. But instead, she is happy that her husband's dream will not be shattered.
Nina smiled tenderly.
"Ella, things will not remain the same forever. And moreover, we are a team remember? It was your idea to drop free tests near all the retail outlets to introduce our fragrances to the mass public. They all loved it and appreciate our affordable prices as well as elite high end marketing strategies. Your marketing and restocking our retail chains is the key to this success. If a team is successful, then the credit goes to the entire team. So it's not just my credit, it's our credit" Nina said logically.
