Chapter 1575: Chapter 1575: Bluff and Deception
As Yigol Mamet and Xaviera Evans were chatting, Caleb Mamet slowly walked over, his tone indifferent: "The Powell Group and Julius Powell have signed a contract."
Xaviera raised an eyebrow: "I knew it already. With Jacob Powellâs personality, how could he possibly give up on this project? Julius Powell took the initiative to propose an investment, giving him a chance to try, so Jacob had no choice but to sign the contract."
"Xaviera already knew!" Calebâs voice was calm, but in the next second, he suddenly leaned down and whispered in her ear, "Do you know there is one more thing?"
Xaviera instinctively asked, "What is it?"
Calebâs smile was profound, "Xaviera should know that there are two genius perfumers in the perfume field, and one of them is Twilight."
Xaviera: "..."
She already knows that Caleb is Twilight, so it was a bit awkward for her to hear him mention that name.
Xaviera paused for a moment, and Caleb looked at her with a smile, "You and Quinn have met Twilight, and Quinn knows very well that Mr. Twilight will not help her."
Of course! Caleb would never help Quinn Powell!
"As for the other genius..." Caleb deliberately dragged out his voice, with a hint of enchantment, "Do you know?"
Xaviera swallowed hard, the corners of her mouth twitching slightly.
Caleb casually said: "The other one is called Mandy. Xaviera has such a talent for perfumery, so she must have heard of this name! And I think Xavieraâs work is very similar to Miss Mandyâs!"
Xaviera: "..."
She squeezed out an awkward smile, avoiding Calebâs gaze.
"There has always been a legend of Mandy in the perfume world, but no one seems to have seen her true face or knows who she really is, and Quinn is taking advantage of this to announce..."
Xaviera pretended to be indifferent, picked up the flower tea on the table, and took a sip.
Caleb continued, "Quinn announced outside that Mandy is her intimate friend from her boudoir and that she learned perfumery from Miss Mandy."
Upon hearing this, Xaviera choked on her coffee and coughed violently.
Caleb smiled, his eyes full of laughter, and asked softly, "Xaviera doesnât believe that Quinn and Mandy are friends?"
Xavieraâs face turned red, and she snorted angrily, "Quinn has no shame! What intimate friends? How can she have the nerve to say that?!"
"Sheâs talking about Miss Mandy, why is Xaviera so agitated?" Caleb leaned lazily back in his chair, his pale brown eyes mocking.
Xavieraâs angry expression on her face suddenly froze: "..."
"How can Xaviera be sure that Quinn is lying?"
Xaviera thought that of course Quinn was lying, because she was Mandy, how could she become close friends with Quinn? Even if she were to make friends with a dog, she would absolutely not be friends with Quinn, itâs so unlucky!
But...
Xaviera had a complicated expression, it wasnât that she wanted to deceive Caleb, but that she couldnât tell him about her identity as Mandy yet. She hesitated for a moment, and squeezed out an innocent smile she thought she had, "Aiyo! You donât have to think about it, of course Quinn is lying! If she really knew Mandy, why didnât she mention it earlier?"
"Oh?" Caleb let out a low laugh.
Xaviera inexplicably felt a little panicky, not daring to look into Calebâs eyes, and blurted out, "Iâm just annoyed that Quinn always parades around under someone elseâs name and deceives people!"
Caleb smiled and stroked her head, whispering in her ear, "Mrs. Mamet is so indignant, anyone who doesnât know better would think you knew Miss Mandy."
Xaviera denied vehemently, "No! Donât talk nonsense! I just feel that Mandy, being such a genius, wouldnât be friends with someone like Quinn. I... "
"I got it, Mrs. Mamet." Caleb doted on her by pinching her cheek, interrupting her words.
She suddenly felt as though Caleb was coaxing a child.
After a moment of silence, Xaviera couldnât help but ask, "When did Quinn say she and Mandy were friends?"
How come she hadnât heard this news?
Caleb whispered, "Julius Powell invested 800 million dollars in the Powell Group, so the Powells naturally had to show their strength to the investors. Just at this time, someone discovered that the perfume made by Quinn a few years ago had a style very similar to Mandyâs, and then... "
Caleb handed his phone to Xaviera, "You take a look."
Xaviera took it and saw that a perfumer had posted a comparison of Quinnâs work over the years with Mandyâs work from a few years ago, and was astonished to find that the similarity between the two reached 75%.
The choice of ingredients, the persistence, and extension of the scent were very similar, and after this post, netizens began questioning her for plagiarism.
