Spoiled by Mr Russell (Lily Christian and Alexander) novel Chapter 77

Chapter 77

On their way over, Nathaniel told Melanie to get everyone who worked at the lab to gather there. By dawn, everyone rushed to the lab, not knowing what had happened, but they could guess it was something huge from the urgency.

Knowing that it was an important matter, Melanie became severe at work she repeatedly analyzed the components of the essential oil she brought back from the factory and compared them to the formula. There was just one thing she could not understand; the reason the finished product differed so much from the previous batches.

Although Melanie had been unconcerned about work for the past two years, she still had the basic skills and knowledge it took to be a perfumer. From the analysis, she was sure there was nothing wrong with the essential oil components. Where was the problem from then?

Nathaniel did not mention the problems with the essential oil and finished product to the lab‘s employees. He just told them the company had received a new order, and he had to make arrangements with the current personnel through an assessment. He told the employees they needed to take a test to differentiate the essential oil components from the previous and current batches.

The employees were unsure why they had to take such an assessment but simply obeyed Nathaniel‘s orders. They were busy working on the task, but none had yet to make any discoveries. Nathaniel did not have much hope for the outcome of this assessment because most of the employees were fresh graduates. Back then, the company had Lily handle everything, so he was not in a rush to train more talents.

Moreover, training these talents needed a considerable sum of money. Few people could succeed as perfumers, and only the capable ones would get hired with high pay Nathaniel‘s company was just a medium–sized one, and he did not see the need to spend on hiring so many talents back then. Lily, who was capable and worked free of charge, was enough for them.

However, he did not expect the woman he thought he had controlled to leave them overnight!

While looking around the labs, Nathaniel had his brows locked in a frown. Time was running out, and if they failed to find the problem as soon as possible, the factory would not be able to complete the orders on time. If the finished products did not meet the requirements, they would need to compensate a vast amount of money for breaching the contract.
