Chapter 454 Negotiating With Helga

Melodie’s tone was gentle as she talked about Austin Institute, full of nostalgic memories. She chuckled and said,

“Speaking of which, my husband and I actually met at Austin Institute.”

With that, she looked up at Darrin with an affectionate smile, and Darrin responded with a grin.

Freya’s gaze briefly flickered as the conversation wrapped up. She pulled Radley aside, away from Darrin and

Melodie. Far from the couple, Freya’s expression turned serious. Things have gotten more complicated.”

Melodie, or rather, Danna, wouldn’t be foolish enough to fabricate details about her school. While identities could

be falsified, an institution like Austin Institute had numerous students and faculty. Darrin couldn’t possibly ensure

that everyone who attended with her kept silent. Moreover, Austin Institute was a renowned school with a diverse

student body. It wasn’t just Florinians who studied there; it attracted elites from various countries. Darrin couldn’t

possibly silence all of them.

So, there was only one possibility-Melodie had genuinely attended Austin Institute, and the stories about the ivy-

covered walkways and the like were true.

Freya sighed and massaged her temples. “Danna has been missing for a long time. Someone must have helped her

along the way, enabling her to attend school, undergo plastic surgery, and alter her voice.”

Was this series of actions orchestrated by Darrin?

Radley stood by Freya’s side. “Let me investigate this. Don’t worry. Even if I can’t find anything, I’ll make her

disappear.”

Freya shook her head. She used to harbor a deep hatred for Danna. Even though time had passed, she still held a

strong aversion toward Danna. However, she no longer felt the kind of heartache that would prevent her from

thinking rationally. “No need. Our goal today is about Wonder Aroma. I need evidence. As for Danna, we don’t need

to deal with her right away.

If Danna intended to settle in Caltun, there would be plenty of time for further investigation.

Freya scanned the room, recalling that Helga had arrived late to the annual meeting. However, the seating

arrangements made by Donnelly Group were based on status.

Freya and Radley were seated in the middle of the first row, while Helga occupied a corner in the last row.

As soon as Freya spotted Helga, she walked over briskly.

Helga was holding a glass of champagne, attempting to converse with a wealthy young man Her smile looked

somewhat forced.

Freya walked up behind Helga and gently tapped her shoulder.

Helga jumped in surprise, then turned around to see Freya. She furrowed her brows and cast an arrogant glance at

her. “Miss Kaufmann, what can I do for you?”

Now that Freya was suspected of plagiarizing her Bitter Blossom fragrance, Helga felt she had the upper hand and

naturally adopted a more aloof attitude. Moreover, she had the Donnelly Group backing her; things were different

from the past now.

Freya went straight to the point with a smile. “Helga, it’s been a while. You still enjoy socializing as much as

before, I see

Helga knew that Freya had noticed her earlier attempt to strike up a conversation with someone, and in the past,

when she was working on TV shows, she had tried to get close to Freya to leverage the Kaufmann Group’s

influence. However, Freya had never given her the chance.

Helga chuckled. “Who do you think you are to still talk to me like this, Kaufmann? I thought you were here to plead

for your brand. Since you’re not, step aside. I don’t have time for idle chat with you.”

She attempted to push Freya away, only for her hand to be grabbed by Freya. Applying subtle pressure, she held

Helga’s wrist firmly, causing Helga’s hand to tingle. Helga glared at Freya.

“What, are you going to fight me here? Aren’t you afraid I’ll call for help? There are plenty of media reporters

around!”

Freya glanced at the reporters on the edge of the event and suggested, “Let’s find a more private place to talk

then.

“I don’t want to talk with you. Let go of me!” Helga retorted.

At this moment, their argument had attracted the attention of a sharp-witted reporter.

The reporter picked up a camera and discreetly aimed it at Freya and Helga.

Freya squinted at Helga and said, “Are you feeling guilty? Helga, if you had nothing to hide, why wouldn’t you talk to

me? Don’t worry, I won’t resort to violence.

Helga clenched her teeth and said, “We can talk whatever you want to talk about right here!”

Freya’s eyes gleamed faintly as she replied, “About reconciliation, of course. Are you sure you want to negotiate the

terms here?”

Helga’s eyes lit up. The Wonder Aroma product launch was approaching. Is Freya attempting to bribe me, seeing

she’s at her wit’s end?

Helga’s mind started to work quickly. The Kaufmann Group and the Monaghan Group were both influential and

wealthy. Even if she demanded a substantial sum, they could afford it to protect Freya’s reputation. However…

Helga gazed at Freya. This woman had nearly ruined her career. While she now had Donnelly Group’s investment,

her reputation in the industry had been tarnished. The Fragrance Lab’s perfume sales had plummeted in the past

few months, and despite the outward appearance of success, she felt empty inside.

Helga wanted to ruin Freya even in her dreams, but the latter was the heiress of the Kaufmann family and also

Professor Harlan.

Freya had an impeccable reputation, received official commendations, and even though she couldn’t provide any

evidence to support her claims of Fragrance Lab copying her Wild Wood formula, the public. overwhelmingly sided

with Freya.

It was an utterly unfair situation!

Helga fixed her gaze on Freya. She wanted the money, and she wanted to destroy Freya too.

Thinking about the items she had brought in her bag. Helga nodded. “Alright, I’ll go with you.”

The two women crossed the banquet hall, and when Freya saw Radley about to follow them, she shook her

head at him.
