Chapter 1450: Chapter 1450: Know When to Stop! Chapter 1450: Chapter 1450: Know When to Stop! “Xaviera, just because you’re my sister doesn’t mean I will favor you or allow you to disrespect Quinn! Don’t be so selfish!”
As Jacob’s words battered her, a chill ran through Xaviera’s heart. She stared in shock and sadness, “This is clearly–”
“Enough! No more words!”
Jacob interrupted her emphatically. Swinging Quinn up into his arms, he headed upstairs. Before leaving, he issued a command, “Zhang, take Xaviera back to her room and let her reflect on her actions.”
Xaviera stood where she was, watching the retreating figures of the pair. The disdainful voice of the maid reached her ears, “Miss Evans, Mr. Powell wants you to reflect in your room. Please go back, and let me advise you: know when enough is enough.”
Despite her rage at the time, Xaviera chose not to pursue the matter further, holding onto the faint remnants of their kinship. Eventually, she wrote a few more perfume recipes that also mysteriously disappeared. Soon after, she saw Quinn theatrically showcasing her stolen recipes to Jacob.
Xaviera knew Jacob wouldn’t believe her, so she didn’t push it. During that period, she wrote over twenty perfume recipes, all of which were stolen by Quinn.
The dream shifted, and Xaviera saw housekeeper Zhang sneaking into her room and taking the perfume recipes to Quinn.
“Miss Quinn, she has written a few more recipes. Please have a look.”
Quinn lounged weakly in her chair, a faint smile in her voice, “These recipes are worthless to her, but if I take them to the competition, I can truly showcase their value.”
The dream ended there, causing Xaviera to wake up with a start, her heart pounding.
Now she finally understood why her memories had suddenly returned — the fragrance competition had dredged up her buried past.
So, it was Quinn who had stolen her perfume recipes!
She immediately sent a message on her phone and received a quick reply: [Quinn Powell has won two consecutive championships in the Fragrance Competition, but unfortunately, due to health reasons, she hasn’t participated in the last two years.]
Xaviera had previously served as a judge, but had never encountered Quinn. It seemed that Quinn had entered the competition after Xaviera had left. Quinn didn’t actually know how to create fragrances, so she stole Xaviera’s recipes and laughably won two championships.
Xaviera had one doubt. In the dream, she had found out about Quinn’s thievery and had even acquired evidence. Why hadn’t she exposed her publicly?
She closed her eyes and began to remember the scenes from the dream. Each perfume recipe she created had a special ingredient with a unique scent, and the perfume that resulted from these recipes was not perfect.
If she was still the judge in the Fragrance Competition, she would have surely caught these imperfections in Quinn’s perfumes. The combinations of ingredients were harmonious except for one or two incongruous ones. Only the chairman of the Fragrance Association and she could have detected this, but unfortunately, the former chairman had died and she was no longer a judge. As such, no one pointed out this flaw.
Quinn, armed with these stolen recipes, had won the championship twice consecutively.
Xaviera suddenly laughed, rose from her seat, and went to Caleb’s study, “Caleb, I’ve decided to participate in the Fragrance Competition!”
Caleb raised an eyebrow, looking at her, “So quick to decide, Mrs. Mamet?”
Xaviera blinked at him, “Yeah! I have it all figured out. I have my recipes ready, and I’m confident that I will win the championship!”
The competition rules stipulated that out of thousands of recipes, only two hundred would be selected. These would then go head-to-head in a series of eliminations until the final ten were chosen.
Xaviera felt that this method wasn’t fair. After the previous Chairwoman, Mrs. Algoma, had passed away, these new rules were established. However, since she was participating in the competition, she would follow the rules regardless of her personal feelings.
Xaviera put a perfume recipe in front of Caleb, “What do you think about this recipe? It should do well in the competition, right?”
Caleb glanced at the recipe and smirked, “Mrs. Mamet, I’m quite aware of your secret. What I am curious about is why you suddenly want to participate.”
Xaviera gave him a meaningful smile, “How can I take revenge without participating in the competition?”
If a thief can be a champion, now that the rightful owner has returned, shouldn’t that thief step aside?
Xaviera filled out the application form, submitted her own competition fragrance recipe online, then drove to the Fragrance Competition venue and handed in a bottle of her self-made perfume.
