Married To My Billionaire Stepbrother novel Chapter 240

Chapter 240: Acting Cute

At the event hall, all the guests were enjoying the event, even after the interruption.

"I told you she could handle it," Silvia said.

Victor frowned. "Don’t act like you know her."

"Maybe I do," Silvia teased with a smile.

"Then you are mistaken," Victor retorted, ready to move away while Silvia didn’t stop him.

Standing by his side, she could feel his anger when Faye was insulting Natalie, but he had masked it well behind his calm expressions, as the skilled actor he was.

Mia’s parents came to them and couldn’t help but praise them.

Mia’s mother immediately hugged Natalie and said, "I am sorry. I almost doubted you today for the first time."

Seeing the sad face of a woman who had always treated her well, despite what others said, Natalie replied, "It’s alright, Aunty. That Faye is to blame."

"My mother is so innocent to fall for swindlers like Faye," Mia said and looked at her mother. "It’s alright."

"You two did well today," Mia’s father said to both of them and then looked at his daughter. "I had been worried about how you would fight against these crafty business types who would try to pull you down, but it seems like I don’t have to worry anymore."

Mia smiled. "Thank you, Dad."

Morris patted his sister’s head. "I can truly be worry-free now," he said, looking at Natalie. "Together, you two are amazing. I am sure soon this business world will have two strong women rising."

Both of them thanked him for his generous praise.

Many guests personally came to Mia’s parents and praised them for having children like Morris and Mia. Everyone was already aware of Morris’s capabilities, but seeing Mia today made them all recognize her own strengths.

As they busied themselves with the guests, someone finally asked, "Ms. Natalie, why did that woman, Faye, say the perfume for men and women is the same, while we could clearly smell it’s totally different?"

"When I was making the perfume, you must have noticed that I filled the same perfume into both bottles," Natalie said, to which others nodded.

"Though the perfume was made the same, before filling the bottles, I added two different chemicals to them, which are transparent and odorless. These chemicals made the perfumes different for both genders, but when it’s still in the bottle, it smells the same because the added chemical is odorless. So, what must make those perfumes change their smell?" Natalie asked.

Ms. Taylor smiled as she understood already, while Natalie explained, "The particular chemical in a men’s bottle or women’s bottle has the ability to change the perfume’s odor once applied to the skin. It blends with the unique, subtle scent your own pheromones carry and makes that unique scent more prominent. That’s why, when you all were going to test the perfume, I asked you to use it on your skin."

"No wonder I liked the scent immediately and found it so unique," one guest commented.

Everyone was delighted to hear the explanation. Each guest was gifted a set of perfume bottles as a thank-you gesture.

Ms. Taylor and Mrs. Summer approached Natalie.

"I will, but probably in a week," Natalie replied. _{freewēbnoveℓ.com}
