Flash Marriage: She becomes Mrs. CEO after the Failed Dowry Talk

Chapter 632: Beyond One’s Control

Nora realized that Finnian was not interested in matchmaking; it was likely arranged by his family.

She was not in a position to interfere and could only let things unfold, leaving it to fate.

When they settled the bill, the cashier informed them that the account had already been charged to the owner’s name.

Nora joked with Jasper Sinclair, "Mr. Sinclair, you really have a lot of influence, even letting me freeload."

"There are plenty of opportunities; make sure to seize them."

With Jasper Sinclair’s stature and status, everyone outside scrambled to say: I treated Director Sinclair to a meal!

Even if the meaning is somewhat twisted or a concept switch occurs, it doesn’t matter.

For ordinary people, catching a glimpse of someone from the Forbes billionaires list is as difficult as ascending to the heavens.

One has to admit, this is the charm of capitalists.

Inside the elevator, Nora and Jasper stood side by side.

Outside the elevator, Finnian Lawrence’s gaze swiftly swept over them, and when their eyes met, they nodded in acknowledgment, bidding farewell.

Then, the silver doors closed.

As they got downstairs, just as Nora opened the car door, someone chased from behind.

"Nora."

It was Finnian.

He looked anxious, with his tousled bangs showing he had jogged over.

Nora’s gaze fell on his shoulder as she asked, "Do you need a lift?"

"No need for a lift, but I have a favor to ask you."

"Finnian, you’re being too formal."

In Nora’s heart, a bottle of emotions was overturned, feeling a mixture of sentiments, and she could roughly guess what he wanted.

The next moment, Finnian’s words matched what she had in mind.

"Please don’t tell Lily about today."

"Are you going to confess to her yourself?"

"When the time is right."

"The matters of feelings between you two, I’m an outsider, not suitable to interfere, but don’t let Lily be too upset."

At this point, Nora didn’t know what he was thinking and could only hint as much.

Jasper stood aside, listening, never uttering a word from start to finish.

Then, they parted ways.

Nora’s emotions were slowly soothed by the afternoon breeze.

As the car drove onto the highway, the Hunan restaurant and Finnian’s words were left far behind.

For the next week, Nora began focusing on developing new products again.

Additionally, she visited an OEM factory every day for inspections, with Yvonne Winslow arranging her schedule, repeating the same routine seven times a day.

Despite such an intense workload, she managed to come up with a new formula.

Nora named the new formula: "Letter."

It sounded like a name full of romance and longing, with a top note of vibrant bluebells, a middle note of sweet pear, and a base note taking a 180-degree turn with ebony replacing the sweetness, making it more lasting and profound.

The launch for "Letter" was scheduled for mid-April.

The day after VK’s release, the Woodward Family launched theirs in succession, creating a competitive atmosphere.

Unfortunately, the Woodward Family’s mainstay was only Rora.

The other perfumers basked in her spotlight, and Rachel Woodward, as the biological daughter, also relied on Rora.

She was willing to work hard but lacked the talent for perfumery, so she could never outmatch Nora.

At this moment, she was sitting in front of her computer desk, staring at the sales figures.

"Why is there such a big gap? Was the initial promotion not effective?"

Rachel Woodward was emotionally agitated, lashing out at her team, losing her usual image as a wealthy heiress.

Even Rora, having been with her for half a year, had never seen her so angry before.
