His Precious Love

“Bullsh*t!” Felipe defended himself. “It’s clear that you were the ones who stole our product and modified it. And now, you’re attacking us, the original creators?”

Marcelo added, “Ms. Garland, you said you would provide us with an explanation. Is twisting the truth in front of the reporters supposed to be it? You accused our perfumer of stealing the perfume, but how did he do it?”

“Mr. Saunders knows very well where he got it.” Rayna flashed a slight smile before flipping the document on the table open.

It showed the record of Felipe accepting a delivery last month, which was sent from an old residential area in Norwal City. The delivery man had also noted down that the package contained perfume.

The sight of the document contents caused Felipe to panic as he explained nervously, “It was just a delivery of perfume I bought on the internet. How could you accuse me of plagiarism based on something like that?”

“What about this?” Rayna retrieved a recording pen from her pocket.

Once Rayna played it, Felipe’s drunken voice rang out. He was telling someone that he had struck gold in a delivery that he had received.

The sound of his own words drained the color from Felipe’s face. “Ms. Garland, you’re really despicable to—”

“Take a listen. That’s your own voice. I didn’t force you to do anything.” Wearing a faint smile, Rayna said to the media, “Glory has never stolen any of Egret Scents’ products.”

One of the reporters asked curiously, “If you didn’t plagiarize them, why were they the first ones to bring the product to the market? Mind explaining it to us, Ms. Garland?”

“I’ll do so in a while.”

Ella brought forward another document, and Rayna opened it to show everyone. It contained the formula for the perfume Felipe was holding, Glory’s purchase contract for it, and a non-disclosure agreement.
