His secret spoiled wife (Lily and Alexander)

Chapter 228

“No! There are too many people at the lab, and they‘ll see you. Even if the perfume is a success and I

use it to enter the competition, the organizing comunittee might use our relationship as an excuse to

disqualify me,” Melanie said as she frowned

She moaned in frustration and asked, “Can‘t you just try to fix it without following me into the lab? Why

don‘t I bring those failed samples for you to look at?”

Frank nodded, “Sure, I can do that. However, the results mirlit not be optimal. Eitlier I‘ll be able to figure

out what‘s wrong in one go, or this might take longer, maybe more than ten tries.”

This was going nowhere as if Melanie got caught in an endless loop. If she had rejected Frank‘s offer to

come with her to the lab, he might not be able to figure out what was wrong. Then the perfume would

fail, and Melanie could not use it to participate in the competition.

On the other hand, if she allowed Frank into the lab without caring about Nathaniel‘s feelings, she

might also get disqualified since the organizers could use this as evidence that she cheated. Melanie‘s

frustrations were growing as she sat there, pinching the bridge of her nose.

Frank looked at her and opened his mouth to speak slowly, “I‘ve got an idea. It depends on whether

you‘re willing to take the risk”

“What is it?” She questioned. She was willing to do anything now. “If I remember correctly, you‘re in

charge of the lab, right?” He asked.

Even though she rarely sliowed up at the lab, she was still the director. Melanie nodded, “of course. I‘m

the research director, after all!”

Frank smiled, “Then you get to decide when we can go into the lab.”

“You‘re saying we could...” “We‘ll get caught because too many people are in the lab during the day.

So, why don‘t we just go at night?” Frank stopped and smiled at Melanie wickedly.

Melanie instantly understood what he meant. It felt like a knot had gotten untied in her brain, and she

could suddenly think again. Many went in and out of the lab during the day, but most would leave after

working hours.

Since she had access to the lab, bringing Frank along was not a problem. The duo could figure out

what was wrong with the formula, and Frank could even start producing the perfume independently.

With his help, Melanie could ensure the process would be smooth. By that time, she would not have to

worry about not being able to succeed or obtain awards. However, as Melanie met Frank‘s gaze, her

heart fluttered nervously. She still had other concerns, especially being alone with him.

“I‘m just trying to come up with suggestions. You‘re the one who decides. I‘m more than happy if you

would help me sleep well tonight,” Frank announced as he placed his hands behind his head, not the

least worried. “You better hurry if you desperately need my lielp,” he reminded Melanie.

Melanie was silent for a moment. She clenched her fist, weighed the pros and cons in her mind, and This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

nodded solemnly, “All right! We‘ll do it tonight. I‘ll bring you to the lab, and you‘ll help me fix the

problem. This perfume must be successful!”
