I Became His Sweetheart by Bright Eyes

Chapter 414 Miss Yancey

“The first fragrance is called, Snow Between the Brows.”

Melanie stood under the spotlight. Holding the microphone, she began to explain her fragrance

concepts.

“With this fragrance, I want to convey the emotions between people.

“Love is an eternal and unchanging topic. I used rose thorns, bitter orange flower, and night–blooming

jasmine

for the top notes. For the middle notes, I used grapefruit, juniper berry, and clove. For the base notes, I

used

labdanum, dragon’s blood resin, frankincense, and rock rose. I aimed to create a feeling that brings

extreme

joy and despair.

“The initial impression is alluring floral fragrance, with blooming flowers so beautiful it suffocates. The

subsequent whiffs are like medicine, sweet with a hint of bitterness, making people alternate between

feeling

happy and sad and feel that they are unable to grasp at something. The lingering fragrance at the end

is

intense and profound, like poison, growing stronger as emotions deepen.”



Listening to her explanation, several judges couldn’t help but pick up her fragrance and smelled it

again,

followed by nods of approval.

One person, familiar with Cyrus, couldn’t resist saying to him, “Your disciple does have extraordinary

talent.

She has indeed captured the feelings of difficult–to–control emotions.”

Cyrus proudly stood with his hands behind his back. “Why else would I take her as my disciple?”

“The second fragrance is called, You Are Like the Moon,” Melanie continued.

“For the top notes, I used pear, bergamot, clary sage, and gardenia. For the middle notes, I used

geranium, lily of the valley, and benzoin. The base notes include Texas cedarwood, lovage, and dry

amber. This is the

antidote I formulated for the previous Mystery, a remedy for that tormenting emotion.

“I want to express that love originally has no solution. Instead of struggling, reminiscing, and entangling

yourself in the whirlpool of emotions, it’s better to let go, enjoy happy moments with your loved one,

and not

ask whether it’s fate or calamity.”

Spontaneous applause erupted from the audience.

Someone said, “Well said! When I smelled Snow Between the Brows, I felt like I was lost in the clouds.

When I



smelled You Are Like the Moon, I felt an instant sense of liberation!”

The applause continued for a while, so much that Robert grew impatient. He glanced coldly to his left

and right, and the applause immediately dwindled. No one dared to praise Melanie anymore.

“Her fragrances are always ethereal, and not grounded at all. She uses ingredients from international

fragrance giants, making her scents naturally clearer than others. Unfortunately, the prices are absurdly

high!

“If the fragrance industry promotes itself based on high costs, what will ordinary people use? Perfumes

should be accessible to the general public. High–end individuals attending high–end occasions usually

use essences, “Aiden said. Seeing Robert’s signal, he immediately took the lead in questioning

Melanie’s perfumes.

1/2:

+15 BONOS

“The purpose of this competition is indeed to create fragrances for the mass consumer group,” Robert’s

assistant chimed in as well. “From the beginning, the organizing committee emphasized strict

adherence to the competition rules, aligning with the event’s purpose. Therefore, judges should

consider this dimension

when scoring.”

The judges exchanged glances.

Some judges hade been able to perceive Melanie’s intended feelings in the fragrances earlier, resulting

in

lower scores.



Fragrance perception varied among individuals, so differing scores weren’t surprising. After Melanie’s

explanation and after they smelled her fragrances again, two judges were already regretting giving her

lower

scores.

However, Robert’s intention seemed to be to lower her scores further.

Robert, who had let his assistant speak for him earlier, finally spoke up and continued to be assertive.

Judges, think about whether you want to reevaluate the scores.”

Joseph frowned, but he didn’t look up. It brought forth a tense atmosphere.

Cyrus’s assistant clenched his fists in anger, muttering through gritted teeth beside Melanie.

“That Robert! He really thinks he’s invincible! He knew that when the organizing committee repeatedly

invited him to be the main judge, Mr. Joseph wouldn’t openly contradict him, so he intentionally

targeted you!”

Melanie also knew that the situation was unfavorable to her.

She didn’t care whether it was the second or third prize. The scores had already been announced, but

they were dragging her out on the spot for questioning and demoting her. It was humiliating!

The judges looked at each other. They knew they couldn’t offend Joseph, but he didn’t give any

indication on his stance. At the same time, offending Robert was not advisable.

What should they do? Should they change the scores or not?

Just at this moment, a woman’s voice came from the VIP seats behind the judges.



“I actually think that Miss Jones’s scores for Snow Between the Brows and You Are Like the Moon are

too low.

Her voice was pleasant, but it also carried unquestionable authority.

Melanie looked in that direction, and saw a woman sitting in the middle of the VIP seats. She had

gorgeous makeup and a graceful appearance. It was difficult to determine her specific age, but one

thing was for sure-

she was impeccably well–maintained from head to toe.

As soon as she spoke, all the judges in the front row turned around, stood up, and greeted her with a

mix of friendliness and respect.

“Miss Yancey! You’re here too?”
