Chapter 168: Chapter 168: Patting the Little Face~
Ivy Kensington’s heart tightened, and she hurriedly signaled Chloe Ford that she needed to go out to take a phone call.
Chloe Ford hadn’t initially seen Ivy, and this glance left her stunned.
Sasha?
Is this person Sasha?
Chloe Ford was terrified at heart. Seeing Ivy’s lack of reaction, she grew anxious and simply walked out first, saying: "Sorry, I need to take a call."
With that, she ran off with her phone in hand.
"Mommy, help, sniff sniff..."
On the other end, Ronnie was pitifully begging for help.
Ivy’s heart clenched upon hearing this but then heard the little girl say, "Uncle Julian brought a big doggy to our house, Mommy, it’s so scary sniff sniff..."
Ronnie had been chased and licked by a dog on her bottom when she was little, so she was terrified upon seeing dogs, let alone Julian Hawthorne’s hound.
Upon hearing this, Ivy was finally relieved—it scared her to death; she thought something had happened to Ronnie.
She comforted, "Ronnie, Little Buddy won’t bite you. Just reach out and pet its face."
Ronnie, with tears in her eyes, looked at the huge creature in front of her. Hesitantly, she reached out her little hand.
Little Buddy immediately extended its tongue to lick her; it was showing friendliness to Ronnie!
Ronnie was instantly less nervous, "Little Buddy, woof woof woof..."
Soon, laughter of Ronnie playing with Little Buddy could be heard.
Ivy couldn’t help but laugh on the other end of the phone too, and after chatting for a bit more, she hung up the call and prepared to return to the pharmaceutical room.
However: "Sorry, once you leave the pharmaceutical room, you cannot re-enter the venue, as it’s considered cheating."
The staff blocked her way.
Ivy understood that this was the rule, but since her pills were already made, she wasn’t worried about not having a product.
So she stood outside and waited.
Soon.
Everyone in the pharmaceutical room had completed their products.
Nina Shaw looked at the pills in her hand with confidence; hers were undoubtedly the best!
At that moment, Ivy’s product was brought out.
Almost instantly, Nina Shaw caught a faint, refreshing fragrance.
It was emanating from Ivy’s product!
Her pupils shrank, and Nina immediately realized something—Ivory’s was better than hers!
In the pharmaceutical world, pills that emit a unique fragrance upon production are extremely rare, yet Ivy managed to make it...
For a moment, Nina felt as if ants were crawling inside her heart, immensely uncomfortable.
No... She didn’t want to lose to Ivy again...
Her eyes darkened, and Nina watched as the staff walked past her with Ivy’s product, pretending to twist her ankle, she bumped into them.
"Pa!"
A light and heavy sound echoed as the staff’s tray fell.
Nina apologized, "I’m really sorry, it’s my carelessness."
She spoke as she bent down to pick up Ivy’s pills.
The staff didn’t fuss, only said, "Please exit the venue quickly."
"Okay."
Nina cooperated and returned the pills to them.
Before long.
Everyone’s products were presented before Master Gard.
A unique fragrance lingered around everyone’s nostrils.
In merely a few seconds, Master Gard accurately picked out the pill with the cedar scent.
In an instant, Master Gard was both gratified and delighted.
That girl was truly a talent worth cultivating!
He merely gave her cedar, and she managed to maximize its usage; after all, cedar scent blending is extremely difficult...
"It’s her!"
Master Gard affirmed without hesitation, just based on this fragrance alone, he could conclude this was the best product of the event, undoubtedly!
