Chapter 305: Counterattack
o’clock.
Nora Northwood locked herself in the fragrance lab all morning, still buried in recording formula data.
She took off her lab coat, already surrounded by the mixed scents of various essential oils.
With only a month left until New Year’s Eve, Nora was preparing to create a new scent for the New Year series.
At noon, Jasper Sinclair picked her up to return to Southwood Court.
Having been in a state of intense work lately, Nora decided to give the whole studio a half-day off.
After the New Year, she plans to arrange a team-building activity.
Downstairs at the mall.
A pure black Maybach had parked at the roadside, and Nora headed straight for the back seat.
Seeing her arrive, Jasper Sinclair temporarily put down his work and took out what he had bought on the way, "Your favorite strawberry cake. You’ve been working hard lately."
Nora fastened her seatbelt and eagerly opened the cake box, sweetly saying, "Thank you, husband."
Louis Hayes, at the front driving position, thought to himself: What a sin, what a sin!
Then, the car’s engine started.
"Have you figured out how to deal with the issue on the forum?" Jasper Sinclair asked.
"The usual way, let it ferment on its own first, wait until all the problems surface, solve them all at once, and take the opportunity to run an ad."
Nora had repeatedly found this method effective.
The car merged into the darkness of the night, and before reaching Southwood Court, Nora had already finished the strawberry cake.
She looked at the road, lit by scattered lights, and asked in confusion, "It seems quite congested today."
Jasper grabbed a tissue and wiped away the cream left on the corner of her mouth.
He asked again, "What would you like for lunch?"
"Why? Is President Sinclair going to cook himself?" Nora’s eyes were mischievous. She realized it’s been a long time since she had a proper meal cooked by Jasper.
"That’s something to consider."
Hearing this, Nora raised her eyebrows slightly, her whole being radiating joy.
Jasper playfully twisted a lock of her hair around his fingers.
Stealing half a day of leisure.
Half a day passed quickly.
Nora began investigating the person behind the anonymous posts, initially thinking it might be related to Yuna Hughes.
Upon further investigation, she discovered Yuna was busy preparing for the launch of a new brand, likely not having time for such petty tricks.
The person behind it seemed to have bought internet trolls; any article with the VK title was met with criticism and derogation, with the rhetoric repeatedly using the same phrases.
After many days, Nora finally "reopened for business" and officially launched a counterattack.
She logged into the official account and responded under a particularly harsh comment.
"According to your description, our studio suspects you haven’t used our products. Our staff has contacted you via the back end to offer you a complimentary bottle of our fragrance. We hope that after using it, your opinion of our products and brand will change!"
This comment was pinned to the top.
Some netizens noticed the anomaly and raised questions: "You haven’t used their stuff, yet you keep badmouthing them. Were you hired by the competition?"
It must be said, netizens’ thought processes and the direction of public opinion are easily led astray.
After this comment was posted, more and more people realized something was off.
Among them, some were curious about how well VK’s fragrance really worked and impulsively placed an order.
Unexpectedly, the store’s sales rose by one percent all of a sudden, catching Nora off guard.
The theme for the New Year series had already been decided, giving her plenty of spare time and energy to engage in a long-term battle with the person behind this.
