You're The Best Medicine For Me

Chapter 40: Sabina Learnt from Others that There Was Someone Looking Like Her

In the VIP resting room…

Sabina’s father and mother, George and Olivia Thomas were receiving Mr. Stewart.

As they lauded their own daughter, Sabina, greatly to him, Mr. Stewart laid eyes on her work and he

was moved to the point that he wanted to keep her as his disciple.

After Sabina had lost sight of Bryan, she came back to the resting room looking disturbed.

When Olivia saw her daughter return, she immediately stood up and held her arms with a wide grin,

“Sabina, Mr. Stewart has seen your work. He’s quite interested in you and he wants to know your

opinion on following him tutelage. He will be able to train you until you become a masterful blender of

perfumes.”

Sabina heard this and almost instantly her gloomy face was gone. She directed her gaze on a middle-

aged man sitting on a sofa.

He was dressed in loose-fitting black overalls, and his hair was combed stylishly. He had a glasses and

a thin figure, but his smile was somehow very down-to-earth.

Sabina hurried to his side and greeted him with an astonished expression, “Stewart, do I really make

the cut?”

Mr. Stewart’s full name was Arthur Stewart.

Sabina purposely chose to call him “Stewart” because she wanted to get as familiar as possible to this

world-famous perfumer. She wanted to gain his liking so that she could become his last disciple.

Mr. Stewart had announced to the public that this mask banquet would signal the end of his

professional career. From that moment on, he wouldn’t dabble in the business anymore, so there would

be no new work from him. However, he would choose a talented youngster from this banquet to be the

last disciple he would train.

He would teach everything he knew about the business to this last student.

Arthur lifted a bottle of perfume on the table and smiled, “Are you the one who blended this bottle of

perfume?”

Sabina narrowed her gaze and there was a flash of dark light in her eyes.

That bottle was indeed orchestrated by her, but she didn’t own the formula.

She nodded with an earnest smile, “That’s right.”

Arthur produced a satisfactory smile and commented, “This perfume was light to the sense and it

carries with it the scent of morning dew. This is great for calming the unsettling heart. Where did you

get your inspiration from?”

Sabina put on a faint smile and replied with full confidence, knowing that she knew the ins and outs of

this bottle, “Stewart, I was inspired by the morning dew. Every drop of this perfume is born from every

droplets of morning dew that I have collected, and those morning dew have to make the cut of my

serious expectation. They had to be on certain flowers or leaves, and in the process of producing it,

every droplet was separated according to their sources. In fact, I didn’t mix in any artificial flavoring,

and this wouldn’t suit a woman anymore. I specially created this for my love because he loves the faint

aroma of morning dew. It could help him relax and ease him into sleep.”

When Arthur heard all of her words, there was a flash of astonishment on his face.

When he first encountered this bottle of perfume, he had a feeling that it was something he had known.

After Sabina had introduced the origins of this perfume, he slowly recollected that a girl had spoken the

same words to him in the past.

Every droplet of dew originating from different flowers and leaves would culminate into a type of

perfume that could recreate the effect of early morning. One could search for escape from a stressful

working life through this perfume.

He never thought that there would be two of a kind in this world.

Arthur suddenly launched into a guffaw.

George and Olivia exchanged a glance.

Sabina asked with a suppressed smile, “ Arthur, what are you laughing about?”

“I am enthralled because you guys are too alike!” Arthur then lightly shook the contents of the perfume

with his hand.

Sabina was perplexed at his answer, and she hated most when someone compared her to someone

similar.

After that incident from six years ago, Sabina would often had nightmares that Shirley would come

back for her dear life in the form of a ghost.

She tried to fake her calmness, “Stewart, who do you think is alike with me?”

“She is also your age, and she used to create perfume using morning dew, like your creation here. The

methods are the same, and the smell is the same too. If there’s a chance, I would let you meet her. She

is one of my proudest student.” Arthur said with obvious delight, “However, your perfume lacks

something. If a chance arises, you two need to have a good talk over this. With that, you can create an

even superior perfume.”

When Sabina heard this, she could feel her body shudder, and a chilling cold crept to her heart. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

How was that possible?

Not only the methods of creation were alike, even the smells were the same.

In this whole world, only Shirley was capable of concocting such a similar perfume, and only she alone

knew the methods to concoct one like this.

Due to the faint and almost nonexistent scent, Sabina even ridiculed Shirley that no one would take a

fancy to such a perfume.

To this, Shirley replied that someone would like it. At least, she liked it herself very much.

Therefore, who was the person mentioned by Mr. Stewart?

“Stewart, is the person who is so similar to me my male or female senior?”

With a laugh, he replied, “Don’t fret, my student is a female. Although she is quite an uptight person,

she is very caring towards the newcomers in the business. Oh, that’s right, she has the same family

name as you. Her family name is Thomas.”

When Sabina heard that they shared the same family name, her palm immediately felt chilly.

That disciple of his bore the Thomas name, and she had concocted an eerily similar perfume, not to

mention their similar age.

There wasn’t something so coincidental in the world, unless…

Shirley didn’t actually die.

But how could that be possible? She had destroyed her face, and she even stabbed her and pushed

her into the ocean. There was no chance that she would be able to survive that.

No, no, no…

It couldn’t be Shirley. This must be some crazy coincidence.

Olivia noticed that there was something strange with her daughter’s expression, so she immediately

inched closer to her and held her hand, “Mr. Stewart, let’s go and get something to eat.”

“Alright, let’s go. I want to announce my final disciple too.” Arthur got up and returned the bottle to the

original owner, “Work harder.”

Sabina resumed her usual expression in an instant. She accepted the bottle with joy, “Thank you,

master.”

When Arthur heard her addressing him as her master, he couldn’t help letting out a fit of laughter.

George and Arthur both emerged from the rest room.

Sabina suddenly stopped in her tracks and looked back at her mother, “Mum, did you hear what

Stewart has just said?”

Olivia frowned, “I think you are being too sensitive.”

“Mum, I still want to apologize. I was too young and ignorant at that time. If I didn’t drug my sister, she

wouldn’t have gone crazy and destroyed her own face… and also jumped into the sea. If sister

somehow survived, that would be great.”

Olivia’s expression changed drastically as she recalled how much hardship Sabina had gone through in

the Moore family. At the thought of her daughter’s unruly behavior, she sighed, “Sabina, I know all of

your grievances.”

“But, if Shirley really returns, I… I am really afraid that she would tell Bryan that I was not the one doing

it with him at that time. By then, would Bryan and Madame Moore vent their anger at our family? Just

when dad’s company is doing so well…”

When she talked about this, Olivia said with a deadpan face, “There is only one Miss Thomas in the

family.”

“But, my sister…”

“I never disclosed to the public that I have another daughter anyway. Even if that bringer of misfortune

returns, she won’t become the second young lady of the Thomas family. You need to focus on your

career as perfumer. By the time you can concoct a perfume that can put Bryan into a reassuring sleep,

you would be immovable.”

Sabina snickered secretly in her heart. Her mother was right, as long as the Thomas family never

acknowledged Shirley as one of their own, it wouldn’t matter even if she returned.

Why would Bryan and Madame Moore believe a stranger out of no basis?

Nobody had proven that there was a second daughter in the Moore family.

Despite that, whenever she thought about Bryan’s attitude towards her lately, she would be unnerved

for no reason.

At that moment, Olivia tugged her arm to signal her to look forward, “Bryan is there…”

Sabina followed Olivia’s line of sight and saw that Bryan was bringing along a woman, and he was

moving through the crowd. For some reason, he was no longer wearing a mask, and his handsome

features were on full display…
