Jaylene hesitated for a moment, her expression subtly changing.
"The Rosaceae family isn''t only roses. It''s simr to how peonies and herbaceous peonies are in the
same family, Paeoniaceae. Having an allergy to peonies doesn''t mean being allergic to herbaceous
peonies. They''re separate species," she hurriedly rified.
"Ah," Ste nodded in understanding. Then, she inquired, "Jaylene, I''ve noticed you seem unaffected
by these flowers now. Has your asthma improved?"
After the incident earlier, Jaylene was cautious in her interactions with Ste.
‘Why the sudden interest in my asthma? Is Ste trying to use it as an excuse to kick me out of the
fragrance department?'' she thought.
"I think it''s getting better. I''ve never been sensitive to pollen, which is essential for working in the
fragrance department," Jaylene replied cautiously.
"Is that so? We''ve known each other for less than a year, yet I''ve seen you have attacks twice, even
with medication on hand. Is it really wise for you to continue in the fragrance department with this
condition? While work is important, isn''t your health more significant? If you were to copse due to this
illness, Dad would surely me himself for allowing you to join thepany," said Ste.
Jaylene would not let Ste use her health as a reason to oust her from Caline. Quickly, she
responded, "Ste, you''re overthinking it. I wouldn''t be here if I weren''t medically cleared. The doctor
has provided me with reports confirming I''m fit to work in the fragrance industry."
"Is that so?" Ste scrutinized her for a moment before asking, "So,Content is property of N?velDrama.Org.
fragrant flower pollen doesn''t trigger your attacks?"
Jaylene nodded. "That''s right."
Flowers weren''t her allergens, so they don''t cause attacks.
In fact, Jaylene had been seeking medical advice everywhere while the Saun family took care of her
over the years. Her condition has improved greatly.
Apart from a minor incident atst year''s charity banquet, where she identally came into contact
with an allergen, she had not had an attack in two to three years.
The most dreaded aspect of asthma is the allergen. Jaylene''s allergen was identified long ago. As long
as she avoided contact, she would not experience any major symptoms. She had managed her
condition very well.
Ste looked at Jaylene. Her expression grew colder as she said, "That''s good to hear."
Saying this, she quietly saved the recorded audio. Since Jaylene said she was fine, she would not give
her the chance to use her illness as an excuse.
Despite Ste''s repeated statements that she did not like roses, Jaylene still left a few stems here,
iming it would improve her mood.
Once Jaylene left, Ste picked up a small spray bottle and sprayed water on the roses.
Then, she sent a private message to the flower shop owner: [Next time, please don''t send such fresh
flowers.]
The owner replied: [Why not?]
Ste texted back: [Just send the flowers left over from the previous day at a discounted price.]
The owner was speechless. She had not seen anyone pursue a girl while being so stingy.
Once Jaylene left Ste''s office, Darcie called. She had just gotten off the ne and learned about
today''s events from na, so she contacted Jaylene.
Her advice was clear: maintain a low profile, let Ste do as she pleased, treat her well as instructed,
and avoid open confrontation.
The thought of being humiliated today made Jaylene extremely ufortable, and Darcie''s instruction
to endure it only made her more upset.
She could not fathom why her mother was so wary of Ste. ''Even though Ste''ste mother founded
Caline, wasn''t it mom''s efforts that led it to its current state? Why should we tiptoe around Ste just
because she joined Caline?''
"Do you hear me?" Darcie asked over the phone.
