Chapter 1 The Formula

Lavender's POV

All employees are busy with their respective jobs. They are the people who continue to serve the company Daddy left. I went straight to my late father's office to check out the sequence of schedules I would make. It was arranged by Miss Kim, his beautiful secretary.

It laid out on the table the folders containing the signatures and even the schedules of those I would attend. In the meantime, I adjust the things that are being put to be nice and neat. I intentionally fixed it because I was looking for something, it was Dad's perfume formula. I will not let the staff find it because it is confidential.

Miss Kim came back a second time, then she noticed my diligence. I just let her watch me do what I do. I smiled back and even winked at her. I told her not to worry because I was fine.

She finally came out of the office. I leaned back in the swivel chair. I took a deep breath then sighed. I looked up as I closed my eyes.

I wonder where Daddy wrote the formula of his perfume? How can I get the right blend without it? I got up and went to the laboratory. I went to the empty table to start making another mixture to get the smell of it.

I've used a lot of solutions but I still can't get the mixture. I was bored so I stood up, I removed the white coat. I went to the office table first, I took my bag then I went out. I hurriedly got in my car and turned it on.

I ran it fast because I wanted to snack. When I parked the car I hurried to the Coffee Shop. Coincidentally I received a message from my friend so I focused my attention on my cell phone exactly as I was inside.

Suddenly I bumped into a man. His shoulders are broad, elegant, and handsome. I apologized to the man for the collision. When he saw my face he noticed I was wearing goggles that I had forgotten to remove earlier when I left the lab. He smelled my perfume and pronounced the name of the flower used in it.

I was surprised by what he said but when I spoke he quickly said goodbye to his friend at the counter and then left the shop. I followed him but I could not reach him yet. I went back inside to continue buying snacks and coffee. After I paid I was brought to an empty table.

While having coffee I could feel the fragrant and cool breeze of the air. I miss this freshness here in the province. I've also been lost here for a long time. When I finished, I went out and left the coffee shop.

I came across a very nice farm that belonged to my Daddy. The extensive Flower Farm was to pick the different types of flowers used in making perfume. I laughed in sadness because until now I hadn't discovered my Daddy's formula. The only thing I had was the last thing he did.

I put it around my neck as a necklace just like a tube, ignored because it was just small. I'm careful because it's just my dad's weird blend. This perfume is what I want to release the smell in the laboratory to be able to release many finished products.

Daddy is deceitful, I used to be comfortable with his health but he didn't tell me what he feels.

He sent me to Boston to study there, leaving him alone while manage his business. I sighed and there I noticed that time had passed. I didn't regret the time because I relaxed my mind.

I went back to the laboratory and I was greeted by people who are diligently discovering the formula. I help but I can't smell all kinds of flowers in the exact smell of my Daddy's Atmosphere Perfumes. I will continue to search, maybe in my office. From the laboratory, I entered my Daddy's office.

I read books, researched everything I could read where Daddy wrote but still nothing until I got tired. The day ended quickly until the workers left. Miss Kim also said goodbye to me. I was the last to leave the building, I thought about taking a walk before going home.

My feet carried me to the promenade. The air is fresh which is fun to feel. I close my eyes as I lean my back on the long chair. Less than five minutes later I was leaning back when someone suddenly sneezed behind me to my surprise.

I looked at the source of the voice, I realized he was the man I met at the Coffee Shop. He didn't even look at me but sat on a bench next to where I was sitting. He sat quietly and looked away. I approached him to make friends.

"Hello, I'm Lavender," I introduced myself. Then turn to me.

"Nice to meet you," I said as I reached out my hand in front of him.

He accepted it but immediately let go of my hand. I just smiled at him then sat in his chair. He just made me sit down and didn't say a word.

"How are you, Lavender?" He asked me.

"I'm good you?"

"I'm fine. Thank you very much."

"You're welcome."

He invited me for a walk and I immediately agreed. I immediately stood up to walk with him. He told me his name was Jack. His name suits him because of his good looks. We continued walking while telling the story, I noticed that I was the one who spoke the most.

We didn't realize it was night so we decided to eat. After we ate we said goodbye to each other.

"In all my future is in the company, I am thankful because there is Daddy's staff who do not give up. They continue to invent to bring out the smell of such perfumes." That's what I always thought.

After I parked my car in the garage I went straight inside the house. When I closed the door, I immediately turned around to go up. I didn't expect anyone else to be here in my house. I was just surprised when he suddenly spoke.

"I've been calling you before, you're not answering my call?" He scolded me.

I didn't answer first but I went to my office here at home. I put down my bag then I spoke. I raised my cellphone enough for him to see it.

"I left my cell phone, I was just walking in the park and then I went out to eat," I explained to Steven, my boyfriend.

He said nothing but to walk away from me. He bent down to go straight outside and finally rode home. He left me standing while watching his car take off.

I sat in the swivel chair, I blew air. I am crying when I think of Daddy. I still remember when we were together, he made me feel his love. Everything was made and customized for me because Mommy went home to heaven first.

"I love you so much, Daddy and I miss you so much," I tearfully closed my eyes holding my necklace containing his last scent.

I prayed that he would guide me to continue the business he left behind. It's not a joke to run a company but I can handle it for him.

"He was my inspiration," I said to myself as I wiped away my tears.

I got up to go up to my room. I cleaned myself to sleep. I am alone in this house, I am the only one living. I am Daddy's heir because I have no siblings.

We also have a house in Boston where I lived while studying and when I started working. I rushed here to manage the company and to see more of Daddy's property. Right now I need to sleep first to get some rest. I lay down and let drowsiness visit me.

While everyone was busy in the laboratory I hurried out. My car took me to the Coffee Shop. Upon arrival, I went straight to the counter with Jack's friend. I would ask him if Jack had a number I would call.

After I heard his answer I was depressed because he also didn't have a number on him. I took his address so I could go. He said he was working but I was naughty, I wanted to go. Jack's friend did nothing but give up.

I wasted no time until I got to the place. I was amazed here at the place and thank you for visiting where he works. Many people go for walks with their families. I rolled my eyes but I haven't seen him yet.

There are many flowers of different types. I smiled at the beautiful colors. My eyes searched for Jack until I saw him. He is holding a bunch of flowers.

I hurried into people to get close to him. When I got closer I hurriedly brought the strips I was carrying to his nose, smelling the solution made in the laboratory. With each smell, I asked what flower was used which was immediately answered. Excited, I repeatedly sniffed the three strips I was carrying until he was bored.

I walked away for a while so that he could plant the flower he had brought first. I speak as he plants. I told him I needed someone like him who was accustomed to the smell of flowers. He was surprised but he didn't ask any more questions.

I waited for him until his break time so we could talk in-depth. I told him my purpose. Because I saw his job I offered him a job with a good salary. I told him to think carefully about what I said.

Since I was not in a hurry, I gave him my calling card with my full address. I was about to leave the place when I noticed that my necklace was gone. I was confused so I went back to Jack's flower garden. I looked around to find my necklace.

Confused, I scraped the plants Jack had planted until they were all uprooted. I don't care if people looking at me. I cried as I continued what I was doing. When I finally saw it, my tears flowed as I locked them in my palms.

Jack shuddered to see how I looked. I just bent down and stood up. There I saw that my dress and the heel of my sandals were muddy. I hit it and I finally left that place.

It was as if I could still hear their laughter. I just cried again. When I shook my necklace I whispered that I didn't want to lose it. I got to my house and immediately took a shower. I put on new clothes before going to the lab.

Steven greeted me. I immediately asked if anyone had hit the right smell of Atmosphere Perfumes. He hasn't answered me yet but I know he hasn't, I just swallowed.

I said goodbye to Steven to finally enter the laboratory. I sat down at the empty table to continue the invention. I stood up to check on all the employees, they were all doing their best to discover the formula. I was shocked to see that Steven was not in the lab.

I went to his office. He's Daddy's Vice President and he's my boyfriend now. I saw him talking on his cellphone but I could not hear what they were talking about. I didn't bother him, I left and went back to the lab.

The next day I went to Jack again to say hello and ask him about my offer. When his boss saw me he mistaken me for his girlfriend. Jack just laughed at the boss. We moved away from the people for a moment so that our voices could not be heard.

He hadn't told me to grab my offer yet but I just let it go. Just as importantly I offered him and he still had the decision. I just said I was waiting for his decision. I finally said goodbye to him as well.

I'm going straight to my house. I'm just here at home, I'm going to the laboratory tomorrow. I just called Miss Kim to supervise them while I was out of their sight. I thought if Steven had gone earlier he would have replaced me shortly.

I am currently at the top of my house, I just finished getting dressed because I am about to enter the laboratory. Because it's too early for me I'm still going to do everything I do here at home. Suddenly I heard heavy footsteps and someone called my name.

The voice was still far from me so I went out. I ran down the stairs continuously with someone calling me. I answered because I knew it was close. I was surprised to see Jack.

I smiled broadly because I knew he was accepting my job offer. I'll introduce him to the business first and get around here at home first. I could hear him praising the stuff and I just let him go because I saw he was enjoying it. I took him to the laboratory to start our work.

I first introduced Steven, my boyfriend. I told him there was a new employee who would help us explore Daddy's formula. He agreed because there was nothing he could do. After I toured and introduced him to the staff, I gave Jack a white coat and goggles that we both wore. We went to the vacant table to start brewing.

As we do the work because of Jack and I's mistake we laugh. Since our tables were far away from other staff, we could no longer bother. We both work more productively. The more we formulate that formula we still don't get the smell I want.

While Steven is always in the office, he only enters the laboratory when a formula is developed. I just let him because he is Vice President and his attention is always on his cell phone. Sometimes I just see him leave when Jack and I walk past the table. I'm not affected by what he does because we're just working.

Gone are the days that the scene was like that. We did a lot of the process but still didn't discover the smell of Daddy's perfumes. I still don't lose hope, especially now that Jack is there to help me a lot. I will continue to explore Daddy's formula.

I explained to Jack that Atmosphere Perfumes is the leader in providing perfume products throughout Asia. Large orders in markets including malls. So I did everything to keep Daddy's perfume name as I thanked him. He nodded at me and said he understood me.

The employees were happy to be with Jack because he was kind. It is obvious to Miss Kim that she admires Jack because he is hardworking and reliable. Everyone is happy when at work. Steven pushes when the staff is having fun even at break time.

I just let him because he was always in the Office. It's not like I'm helping the lab bring out the original mixture. His pushing didn't hinder Jack and I's work. We just concentrated on what I wanted to discover.

To reduce my haste and confusion because I wanted to explore Daddy's formula, I went out to inhale the air. I took a walk in the yard to relieve my stress. I was too beautiful and young to worry about Daddy's business. I remembered Daddy and Mommy again but I just smiled secretly because I knew that everything would be fine too, especially the business that Daddy left.
