Chapter 180

With a chuckle, he looked at Alexander Foster and said, "Alex, Mr. Gao has a young lady in his house who’s only three years older than you. She’s at the perfect age, sensible and intellectual. How about considering her?"

Alexander responded politely, "I prefer younger women."

Master Benson was immediately reassured, "That’s right, when choosing a wife, it’s usually better to choose one younger than yourself. It gives a different feeling. Alex, my granddaughter is twenty-three this year, two years younger than you, which is just right."

Robert Foster chimed in at the right moment, "Gentlemen, my brother is not interested in anyone over the age of twenty-two or under the age of eighteen, so there’s no need for introductions."

The two Masters frowned and asked Alexander Foster, "Alex, is this true?"

Alexander’s face was warm and pleasant, "It mainly depends on the person."

At that, Chloe Collins couldn’t resist glancing at him again.

This time, her gaze met his squarely.

The Masters glanced at each other and, after a few exchanges, understood everything.

They promptly stopped discussing the matter.

By then, the performance had moved on to Raine Nolan.

She sprayed perfume on a few handkerchiefs, had a servant bring them over, and explained the fragrances to the distinguished guests present as they took turns smelling them.

Chloe Collins ate her food quietly, listening to the grandfathers across from her who had finished smelling the fragrances and were praising their uniqueness.

Sophia Ford took the perfume bottle to support her eldest son, sprayed it heavily on her and deeply inhaled, praising it profusely.

The scent quickly overpowered the other odors, and entered Chloe Collins’ nose.

In an instant, a slight expression of concentration appeared on her face.

Simultaneously, confusion appeared on the faces of several perfumers at the next table.

Someone murmured that the scent was a bit strange, but couldn’t pinpoint why.

Camille looked a bit pale, turned his head, cut off Raine Nolan’s words, and asked her directly about the primary ingredients of the perfume.

Raine Nolan felt somewhat satisfied and said slowly, "Four ounces of Agarwood, two and a half ounces of Golden Fragrance, and half an ounce each of Bergamont and Stone Mushrooms Musk, and..."

She paused, not wanting to reveal the remaining ingredients.

All because they were unusually odd.

She laughed and said, "And some of my unique fragrance essence, that’s how it was made."

As soon as the words ’unique’ were mentioned, Camille should no longer inquire.

So she thought.

Just then, someone started coughing.

It was Sophia Ford, who thought the scent was lovely and had sprayed a lot of it. She held her forehead, complaining of dizziness.

Chloe Collins stood up: "Get her to the hospital immediately."

Everyone looked at her with curiosity.

At this moment, Camille also stood up, looking at the perfume bottle, "This perfume is poisonous. If inhaled in large amounts, it can cause coughing and dizziness. It would be more prudent to get her to the hospital."

Raine Nolan abruptly stood up, "Impossible! That’s the correct formula!"

Camille was very serious, "Does it contain quaker buttons and hemlock, yes or no?"

Raine Nolan’s pupils suddenly contracted.

Both of these are poisonous plants, but they also have medicinal uses. However, one must be very careful about their dosage and application methods.

When she first saw the ingredients, she thought it was strange. Why add such bizarre things? However, her mother’s words made her trust Joy Taylor, so she had not questioned it.

Perhaps combining these could neutralize their toxicity.

She thought that Joy had run tests, so it must be correct.

Hence, she had not been overly suspicious.

Now, watching Sophia being taken away, she was panic-stricken.

"I... I didn’t know, I thought the quantities were correct. If the dosage is right, there shouldn’t be any problem."
