Chapter 1278

However, the plant was so precious that she did not feel safe relying on the books alone. She

meticulously recorded its daily changes on paper in case she made any mistakes.

She even thought about asking Anastasia about the origin of agarwood and if she had any experience

growing it.

Before she decided whether to visit the woman, she received a guest instead. Olivia approached with

an armful of snacks and toys for Galen, and he smiled as he saw her.

Nonetheless, Olivia’s mind was elsewhere. After hugging Galen and having her face smeared with

spittle, she hurried to the garden to see the precious plant.

"Oh my! It's agarwood!"

Although she knew Lily would not make a mistake, she was amazed to see it. The rare plant was

young and small, but based on its condition, it was the best of the best.

"Is Mr. Russell the one who got you this cool thing?" Raising her brow, Olivia grabbed an apple and

took a bite.

Lily shook her head. "How would he know about a plant like this?"

"Hey, how could you say that? Didn’t Mr. Russell gather those valuable materials in our lab from all

over the world? He might not know much, but he’s willing to make an effort, okay?"

Olivia used to side with Lily instead of Alexander, but now she "betrayed" her.

Awed by how Alexander had meticulously taken care of everything from the studio to the equipment,

she thought Edward could not hold a candle to him.

'Why can't Edward learn anything from Mr. Russell? Especially after spending so many years with him.’

She had since become Alexander’s loyal fan and often took his side.

Not paying attention, Lily focused on her beloved plant. She carefully cut away some unwanted leaves

with a pair of pruning shears.

"You told me you wouldn't be going to the research institute anymore.

Were you serious?"

Olivia did not hear it clearly over the phone due to a bad connection and wanted to ask her about it in

person. Since Lily had not gone to the studio for two days, she could only come over.

"Yes!" The pair of pruners snapped together as Lily spoke.

"Still, didn't you say you were close to making it work? It's not your style to give up now! Also, has the

research institute agreed, or have they found a replacement?"

"I'm backing out, whether they agree or not."

Lily sized up the plant to ensure there was nothing else to prune and looked over her shoulder. "Isn't it

better now that I have more time in the studio? As you said, we haven't had a new product for quite

some time."

"From how I see it, the agarwood has taken all of your attention lately, and the new product would have

to wait."

Olivia shook her head, but she was not too bothered by it.

Lily was hardworking and highly productive. Besides, all their previous perfumes were still selling well.

Olivia was surprised, though, to see her decide so quickly to drop out of the project after she had been

so interested in the research institute at first.

"Yes, we'll have to wait." Getting up, Lily said in a trance.

'It's not because of the plant. I feel the research institute won't give up so easily.'

Suddenly, the phone rang.
