Chapter 14
Seraphina finally said, “They said you were having an affair behind my back and you set me up!”
Julian’s face suddenly darkened and he snapped, “What are you talking about?”
However, facing Seraphina, Vivian didn’t realize what Seraphina meant for a moment. Facing such a direct and severe accusation, Vivian subconsciously felt guilty and instinctively dodged Seraphina’s eyes.
Hearing Julian’s voice, Vivian came back to her senses and echoed, “Yeah, how could you believe that? It was a slander!”
“Sera, we’ve been together for so long. Do you need anyone to tell you about our relationship? How could you believe such a boring lie? It’s too upsetting,” said Vivian.
After saying so, Vivian looked aggrieved. Her eyes were red and tears were about to fall.
Seraphina thought it was a pity that Vivian wasn’t an actress.
However, Seraphina could also act!
Her mouth was flattened, and she lowered her eyes in depression. Seraphina pretended to struggle with puzzlement and said, “But it’s not just them. People outside always said that
you and Julian…”
“Seraphina!”
Before Seraphina could finish, Julian interrupted her sharply and grabbed her arm, saying, “Are you a fool? How could you believe the rumors? You keep saying that someone said this and people said that. Do you have ears but no brain? Do you know who the others are, who we are, and who you should trust?”
Julian was furious, as if he had been greatly insulted, and cursed Seraphina.
Seraphina thought, ‘Well, I am a fool indeed. Otherwise, how could I be fooled by these two people for so long?’
But the more Julian looked angry and guilty, the more amused Seraphina felt. She had thought that Julian and Vivian might simply admit their affair when things had reached this point, but she didn’t expect them to be so stubborn.
That was fine. Since they wanted to act, Seraphina would accompany them to finish the play.
“But now that things have been like this, why don’t we just announce to the public that

First Love is a work jointly developed by Vivian and me?” Seraphina suggested.
“No way!” Vivian refused immediately and decisively. “After what happened yesterday, who will believe it? This will do nothing to save the reputation of Prosperian Company. We can’t do this!”
At first, Julian hesitated for a while, but when he heard Vivian’s words, he immediately echoed, “That’s right. That’s not going to work. And you know that you have a history, and
your reputation is not good. If we announce that you developed First Love together with Vivian, it means that we were wrong last night. We can’t do this! Absolutely not!”
“What are we going to do then?” Seraphina asked.
Seraphina guessed that they would not agree. She was just curious about how they would solve the farce yesterday.
“Seraphina,” Julian called out. Holding Seraphina’s arms, Julian said in a low tone and stared at her seriously, “I’m sorry, but you have to do this.”
“What do you mean?” Seraphina raised her eyebrow and looked calm.
“I’ll give a press conference, then you should come out and say that you were out of your mind and wanted to take credit for First Love alone. Then you should apologize to Vivian. The company will forgive you, and it’s over,” Julian said.
Julian said quickly as if he had thought about the words many times in his mind.
Seraphina didn’t retort but still looked embarrassed. “But Aroma Delight…” she murmured.
“You can just ignore them. Have you signed a contract with them?” Julian asked.
He frowned and was unhappy at the thought of Aroma Delight.
The point was that Julian had no idea when Seraphina got in touch with Aroma Delight.
Seraphina shook her head and said, “No.”
“That’s good. Since you didn’t sign any contract with Aroma Delight, you can change your mind. It would be merciful of me not to sue them for libel!” said Julian.
Then Julian patted Seraphina’s arm with one hand and said, “Seraphina, you are too simple to know the complexity and dirtiness of the business world. We did it for own good. We don’t want you to get involved in these shi tty things.

“I’ll take care of the business with Vivian. You can just concentrate on making perfume. Isn’t it your favorite thing? Isn’t it wonderful to be able to focus on what you love?”

Mon,
Chapter 14
Seraphina looked at Julian. He had been brainwashing her with such words so that she would be willing to help Julian and Vivian regardless of the reward.
But at this moment, they still wanted to use Seraphina to take all the blame for them in the name of her good.
If Seraphina admitted to stealing the formula, it would be impossible for her to work in another company. Stealing would be a lifelong stigma. Seraphina couldn’t stay in this circle for the rest of her life.
Julian asked Seraphina to do this, not only to protect the reputation of Prosperian Company and Vivian, but also to ruin Seraphina’s reputation. In that case, Seraphina had no choice but to work for him in the future.
Seraphina thought, “You wish! What a plan!’
