Chapter 464

Upon entry, Raine Nolan didn’t say a word and simply sat by the window, messaging on her phone.

Vanessa Brooke, with no mind to grade papers, asked her, "Raine, is that gossip going around true?"

Raine’s vacant gaze slowly regained focus, but was still void of any brightness.

"I don’t know..."

Vanessa Brooke frowned, moved to her side, and asked softly, "How can you not know?"

Raine lowered her head, "It just happened, I don’t understand if my family did this for sales..."

Vanessa Brooke understood instantly what she meant.

"So, you mean, you are the sacrifice in this business war?"

Raine shook her head, her face still filled with confusion, "I don’t know...I’ve followed my mother to study perfumery for more than ten years, I’ve never made a mistake and won many awards, the International Fragrance Alliance even offered me an olive branch...Ms. Brooke, I don’t know why something like this happened today."

Vanessa Brooke exhibited a look of sympathy, "Ah, it’s something unavoidable. You can’t even clarify it, but I still believe in you—I have been using that perfume and there’s no problem. Those rumors are just hearsay."

Raine was surprised that Vanessa Brooke would say this.

"Ms. Brooke ... thank you."

"What are you thanking me for? You are my most prided student. If I didn’t believe in you, I would be doubting myself. Take a good rest and adjust your mindset. Your classmates won’t remember this for long. Besides, winter vacation is coming soon. Your outstanding performance in the Winter Camp will make everything easier next semester."

Raine was not comforted at all.

She felt that she might truly lose a lot this time.

The Carsons were not a family to be trifled with.

Although she didn’t mean to harm anyone, she did make that perfume. If the Carsons held her accountable, she...dared not think any further!

Vanessa Brooke went to wash some fruits for her, while she continued checking her messages.

[Mom, will I go to jail?]

[I heard the Carsons have a high status in Corynthia, what if they do not spare me?]

[I had no idea that perfume was poisonous at first, I’m innocent too.]

After sending a series of messages, her mother finally replied.

[Mother: You won’t go to jail. No matter how powerful the Carsons are, they can’t interfere with the Collinses. We have already done our utmost in negotiation. You are not the mastermind, and nothing will happen to you.]

Raine was reminded of news about people committing suicide by drinking pesticide.

She rejoiced, right, she did make it, but did not force Gilbert Carson to use it, nor did she poison him herself. How could she be blamed?

Based on this point alone, indeed, she should not be condemned.

Once she realized this, she became sanguine, took a bite of the fruit that Vanessa Brooke had washed for her, and said: "So sweet."

Just as she finished speaking, her phone vibrated abruptly.

It was a notification of her being kicked out of the group chat!

On a closer look, the Fragrance Association kicked her out of the group chat!

The group admin was the Chairman, who specifically messaged her privately.

[Miss Raine Nolan, in light of the Vice President’s feedback, it has been discovered that there are significant issues with your conduct. After due discussion, we unanimously feel that you are not suitable to stay in the Fragrance Association. We wish you better prospects in the future.]

She... was stunned!

Such a trivial Fragrance Association, dare...really dare...to kick her?!

She gave a forced laugh, rendered speechless, but also furious!

"Raine, what happened?"

Raine’s anger turned into tears, she said, "Ms. Brooke look, they’re just blindly following others."

Vanessa Brooke glanced down at the message and her face darkened.

"No worries, it’s just a small association; can it be compared to the Collinses? If it makes you happy, we can ask Mr. Collins to set up an association specifically for you. Such a small place can’t accommodate us anyway."
