    Lily turned to look out the window, unable to continue the conversation.

    A whileter, they arrived at the venue where the final round of thepetition would be held.


    Lily wore a tailored suit, so it would be easier for her to move around.


    Lily was not nervous about thepetition anymore.


    Maybe the sudden kidnapping had relieved her of her tension.


    Compared to thepetition, she was more worried about her health now.


    Recently, she realized that her body was bing different, like something hidden inside her had


    been unlocked.


    That hidden power within her threatened to break free, especially after being kidnapped.


    She wondered if it was because her mind was not focused on her work these days or if it happened


    because she left Nathaniel and MN Inc.She grew up with the influence of the Lodge family, and she


    learned somebat skills from them.


    Although she was not considered exceptionally talented back there, her abilities were enough to fight


    off those who had never received proper training.


    However, it was easy for her to defend herself against those three internationally wanted criminals, and


    that was not something she should have been able to do.


    The urrence puzzled her, but she had no time now to search for the answer.


    Maybe because of the kidnapping incident, everyone’s attention was on her when she stepped into the


    venue.


    Since Giselle was Lily’s assistant, she could not enter thepetition hall and could only wait outside.


    Upon entering the venue, Lily straightened her back and walked over to her seat before she nced


    around her surroundings.


    Everyone had a certain level of skills to enter the final round of thepetition.


    Other than Lily and Mnie, none of the other participants were from Hydend.


    There was a reason why Frank, or rather perfumers from other countries, looked down on the people of


    Hydend.


    Despite being such a vast nation, there were rtively few renowned perfumers from Hydend.


    Although a few were quite talented in this field, their skills were nothingpared to the other


    perfumers at the international level.


    Those who made a name for themselves in the industry either migrated or joined the researchbs of a


    foreign country, causing a loss in the pool of talent in Hydend.


    This made Lily ufortable.She would not say that she was an extremely patriotic person.


    Still, her emotions of being a representative of Hydend would flow naturally when she was in a


    foreign ce, facing all the unfamiliar faces when she had the looks of a Hydend woman.


    She was here to represent Hydend in thepetition.


    She felt she was partly responsible for how Hydend was looked down upon.


    She must win today’spetition to prove everyone wrong! However, she did not see Mnie


    anywhere in the hall.


    Initially, she thought they would be engaged in a heated argument again today, with Mnie insulting


    her in any way she could.


    That was something Mnie would do for sure, but it was surprising to Lily that she was nowhere in


    sight.


    Mnie was notte for thepetition, but she did not have the chance toe.


    That was because a group of police officers stopped her at her doorstep.


    At that moment, she was about to leave home in extravagant attire, hoping to gain fame and glory by


    winning thepetition.
