Secrets Of The Neglected Wife: When Her True Colors Shine Read Online Free

Chapter 1217: "Ms. Clarke's eyes - hazel, I think - remind me a bit of Mr. Morgan's."

Laila, her nerves tightening at the sight of the woman in the fishtail dress, quickly stepped forward to introduce her to Allison and Kellan. "This is our company's perfumer, Yasha Bowen."

The mention of Yasha's name instantly triggered Allison's memory of the strained relationship between Aröme Tower and Diamond Feather. She gave a small, polite nod.

"Hello, Ms. Bowen. It's a pleasure to meet you. I've heard that your perfumes have truly defined an era." Kellan offered a brief greeting as well, his demeanor calm.

Yasha's smile was subtle, yet carried layers of meaning.

"Hello. After seeing you in person, I can see that your reputation is well-deserved."

Yasha had little interest in men and scrutinized Allison closely, her eyes narrowing slightly. She had heard the rumors about Allison's genius - how she was not only celebrated in Ontdale but also made waves in both the fragrance and design industries.

"Ms. Clarke, I understand you're here to discuss a collaboration with Diamond Feather." Yasha's gaze was dismissive, tinged with condescension. "While I'm personally opposed to this partnership, I suppose I'm curious to see how it turns out. Good luck."

For Yasha, this collaboration felt like a futile endeavor. Over the past two years, many had attempted to work with Diamond Feather, only to be rejected.

The employees behind Yasha murmured among themselves, casting skeptical looks at the pair.

"Isn't this impossible? They're just wasting their time."

"Those at Diamond Feather are so arrogant. They know nothing about perfume, yet they act like experts. It's laughable."

"But it's true that they are well-known in the industry. I've heard they're notoriously difficult to please."

Allison had done her research before arriving, so she remained unfazed as she listened to their discussion.

"I know that the perfumers here at Aröme Tower are incredibly skilled, and that you, Ms. Bowen, are a legend in the field." She met Yasha's gaze with unwavering calm.

"But times change. We don't want to see Aröme Tower fade away into obscurity, becoming nothing more than a fleeting memory."

Kellan let out a soft snort, his voice laced with contempt as he added, "In my opinion, anyone brave enough to challenge the status quo is to be admired, while those who scoff are simply revealing their own cowardice."

Yasha's expression darkened for a split second.

She could feel the sting of their words, laced with sarcasm.

"Well, then, I wish you the best of luck." With a final, mocking smirk, Yasha turned and walked away.

Once Yasha and the others had departed, Laila let out a quiet sigh.
