Chapter 688


    When Alexander answered the phone, Lily was close enough to hear what was being said even though


    he did not use the loudspeaker. It was a Call from the headquarters of the La Beaute Group.


    Asurge in refund requests came in at thepany''s mall outlets in the past three days. It did not


    matter if the item was brand new, secondhand, or had been bought long ago, as customers still brought


    in theirints about it.


    Management at the malls has warned La Beaute Group that if the issue was not fixed soon, the stores


    would be shut down.


    “Are you serious? Why do you need to consult me about issues like this? Is the PR team that useless?”


    Alexander replied coldly. It was not because Alexander did not know what to do but because La Beaute


    Group was a vast global corporation in which everyone had a role. This issue was a nightmare for the


    public rtions team, so they were the ones who had to deal with it.


    If they called the director for every urrence, he would be unable to delegate his job properly and


    would be burnt out very soon. Though Alexander did not sound angry over the phone, it was evident


    that his tone was cold.


    The person on the other end gulped before continuing, “T-The PR team had started handling this issue,


    but since this involves Ms. Christian, w-we wanted to ask for your opinion...”


    “Ask for my opinion?” Alexanderughed coldly, “Since when had the PR team be sox and


    hesitant in doing their job? Handle? Tell me how they’re nning to handle this issue?”


    It was impossible that the PR team would do nothing, but the person on the phone was so hesitant to


    report to Alexander because this involved Lily.


    “Mr. Russell...” he paused for a while before continuing, “The PR team wished to ask Ms. Christian to


    take a break for a short time. The criticism about her is at its worst now, and we think it would harm Ms.


    Christian more if she continued to work. We have dispatched representatives to each shopping center

    to engage with shoppers and mall management.


    ““We have also reached out to specific departments that could test our products’ raw materials and


    publish reliable reports about them. The media had been contacted to hold a press conference once


    the reports are out to provide the public with an exnation.”


    To be fair, the PR team did an excellent job nning their proposed solution. They would have put the


    responsibility squarely on Lily''s shoulders and sacked her if they had not learned of her rtionship


    with Alexander. After all, she was primarily responsible for damaging thepany''s image through her


    carelessness.


    “Since you''re so confident with your team’s solution, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and do it! ”


    Alexander remarked and hung up the phone.


    After obtaining their boss''s approval, they could finally set their n into motion. After hanging up the


    phone, Alexander noticed that Lily was staring at him.


    “I''ll leave for Brown City tomorrow. You should use this opportunity to take a break. After so many


    things that have happened recently, you must be exhausted,” Alexander said to Lily while looking at her


    lovingly.


    “Can Ie with you?” She asked suddenly. Alexander was taken aback by her question as Lily


    exined, “I meant to the press conference. Can Ie with you? I''d like to exin the incident with


    the recording personally.”


    “The recording...” Alexander had meant to ask her about it but was side-tracked as he was interrupted


    by so many things happening at once


    “Right, I was meaning to ask, about the raw materials.Js it true that you could add something to it?”


    Alexander was not a professional perfumer, so he was unsure if it could be done. He had never heard


    of anything like this before.


    This was why, when her recording was exposed, it caused such a huge controversy.


    It was after all, unheard of that people could be poisoned by some raw materials in their perfumes. To


    the average consumer, this could not only jeopardize their health but also cause danger to society!


    “You mean putting poison into the scented candles?” Lily smiled, and her cell phone rang as she was


    about to continue exining.


    Initially, she wanted to ignore the call, but it kept ringing incessantly, so she frowned and took out her


    phone from her pocket. Her frown only deepened when she nced at the caller ID.
