Dear Sweetheart Chapter 484
Chapter 484
“You’re wee, Ms. Gand. I didn’t really do much anyway. Right, I’ll be on my way now!”
“Bye!”
Rayna waited until Emerald hailed herself a taxi before getting into E’s car.
“What’s the progress on the investigation?” she asked while switching on her phone.
“Ms. Evans did manage to find something. The perfume that Egret Scents releasedst month wasn’t
created by their own perfumer,” E replied.
Rayna’s eyes lit up when she heard that. “Did their perfumer buy it from someone else?”
“No.”

“No? So, they didn’t create it, nor did they buy it from someone else. Then where did he get it from?”
Rayna asked in confusion.
E told her everything that Suzie had managed to find out about.
Suzie had contacted one of Glory’s employees and said she had breached thepany’s non-
disclosure agreement by handing their perfume to a rivalpany. Suzie then said she would give that
employee a second chance to make things right.
In order to maintain a clean employment record, the employee contacted her sister, who was working
for Egret Scents, and asked for her help. As her sister was working in the production team, she was
able to befriend the perfumer rather easily.
Egret Scents profited greatly from the sales of that perfume. Because of that, the perfumer became
famous and ended up letting his ego get to his head. Two days ago, he got drunk at thepany party
and let it slip when the sister asked about it.
The perfumer said he received a perfume sample in the mailst month. He didn’t know who sent it to
him, but he found its scent incredibly unique. As his higher-ups were pressuring him toe up with a
new product, he recreated that perfume sample and submitted it.
The perfumer was a little nervous when the product was firstunched. However, he stopped worrying
when everything went smoothly after theunch.
After providing Rayna with the full story, E added, “Ms. Evans looked up that perfumer’s courier
records and found out that it came from a small town in Norwal City. After heading over to the location
stated on the address, Ms. Evans discovered that it was a vacant house with no telephone line. She
then made a trip to the courierpany and asked a courier about the package.”
Rayna arched an eyebrow in response. “So many days have passed by now. That guy probably
processes tons of packages on a daily basis. Does he even know who sent it?”
“Apparently, he does. The courier said he remembered a married couple having an argument when he
went to collect the package. The woman even gave the man a p across the face. ording to the
courier, the woman looked extremely frail and seemed that she had been really ill. She wanted to mail
the package out, but the man kept trying to stop her. The woman was still yelling at the man even after
the courier left with the package.”
That was when E recalled something and handed Rayna a few photographs. “Ms. Evans checked
the surveince camera footage around that couple’s house. She managed to get us these
photographs. Have a look and see if you recognize them.”
As the pictures were taken from a surveince camera, they were rather blurry.
Even so, Rayna could recognize Vivi and her husband almost instantly when she saw the photographs.
That was when Rayna finally understood everything. “I was wondering which one of our perfumers had
betrayed us. Who would’ve thought I was the one who caused all this?”
Vivi wanted to get her revenge on me, so she sent that perfume sample to Egret Scents’ perfumer and
had himunch it before us! If Gloryunched its product afterward, Egret Scents would be able to
use us of copying its product. That would ruin Glory’s reputation as well as my own.
Unsure of what she meant, E asked, “Do you know this couple, Ms. Gand?”
“I do. This woman is the one who sued me for attempting to murder her,” Rayna replied coldly while
tearing the photograph to pieces.
That piqued E’s curiosity. “Why would she withdraw thewsuit, then? Could this be another one of
her tricks? How about I send you home, Ms. Gand? We’ve already suppressed the news, and we
now have the truth. Egret Scents won’t be able to sabotage us even if they try.”
The look in Rayna’s eyes grew increasingly colder with each passing second. “No, take me to the
office. I made this mistake myself, so I will clean up after my own mess.”
“All right. As you wish.”
Upon arriving at the office, Rayna had E contact the perfumer while she washed up in the bathroom
of her office.
There was a shower area in the police station, but Rayna had never used it for fear of being targeted
again.
It had been over ten days since Rayna hadst showered, so her body was all filthy and stinky.
She chose toe straight to the office because she knew she had toiletries and fresh changes of
clothes in her office. On top of that, she had a lot of work to take care of.
After Rayna cleaned herself up, put on a fresh set of clothes, and blew her hair dry, E brought their
perfumer over.
“Is there something I can help you with, Ms. Gand?”
Rayna handed him some test strips and pointed at the two bottles of samples on the table. “The one on
the left is the product that Egret Scents releasedst month. The one on the right is ours. Go ahead
and test them both.”
The perfumer instantly understood what Rayna meant to say. “I’ve been following the news on this, but
I didn’t dare say a word as thepany didn’t seem to be doing anything about it. I know the exact
form of our product, so I’ll just test the one from Egret Scents.”
“All right.” Rayna nodded.
The perfumer proceeded to test Egret Scents’ product.
It wasn’t long before he realized something. “Egret Scents’ perfume smells just like ours, but there is a
slight difference in the base note.”
“Yes, I noticed that as well,” Rayna said.
She had tested Egret Scents’ perfume back then and noticed something different about it even though
it smelled the same. “So, the issue lies in the base note, huh?”
The perfumer nodded. “The three distinct elements that make up a fragrance are top notes, heart
notes, and base notes. Base notes are especially important to a perfume, and our perfume has a rather
unique base note. It’s only avable in Faulkay and costs a lot. I’m guessing Egret Scents’ perfumer
either didn’t notice it or reced it with something else because of its high cost.”
Rayna breathed a sigh of relief. “Regardless, we’ll finally be able to resolve this issue.”
Because Egret Scents had attacked first by using Glory of stealing their product, Glory had suffered
huge losses as its stocks had taken a direct hit.
She needed to resolve the issue as soon as possible, or the headquarters might fire her as
punishment.
Rayna had the perfumer leave before summoning E. She had E contact Egret Scents’ perfumer
and the person in charge. She also told the press that they would be holding a press conference.
After that, Rayna ordered some food and listened to her babies’ heartbeat using the B-scan ultrasound
device.
She hadn’t been eating or sleeping well during her stay at the police station. Her babies moved a lot
less throughout the past few days, so she was a little worried about their well-being.
However, with all eyes on her, she couldn’t possibly head over to the hospital for an examination.
Rayna breathed a sigh of relief when she learned that her babies were breathing.
A few momentster, E came into her office with a few bags of food in her hands. “Ms. Gand, I just
received a call from Ms. Brenn of Newfirm Media. Apparently, Ms. Brenn was rushing back to testify for
you the moment she found out about thewsuit. However, the airport staff imed there was an issue
with Ms. Brenn’s visa and detained her for a few days. They confiscated her phone and only gave it
back to her when they released her today. She called me as soon as she could.”
