"Miss Esther, I'll go down and see what happens." Anya got up and headed for the door.
"I'll come with you." Esther had a bad feeling. She felt this incident had something to do with Anya.
Rose Scent was an old brand. They never once had an allergy complaint, let alone a serious accident like this one. Anya just launched her new product yesterday but out of a sudden, a commotion was heard today.
When she went downstairs, she saw a woman about forty or fifty years old fighting with Mila. The woman brought someone with her who was of comparable age.
"Ma'am, let's talk inside while drinking. Don't make a fuss here like this." Mila said patiently.
"My daughter has an allergic reaction after using your perfume and now she has to be hospitalized. How can I be patient and talk about it carefully? Hurry up and bring the person responsible to meet me." The woman did not want to listen to Mila's explanation at all.
"I am the person in charge of this shop. If your daughter is allergic to our products, we will take responsibility. What perfume did she buy?" Esther asked as she stepped forward.
The woman looked at Esther from toe to head, "You are well dressed and luxurious, but how can you be so cruel like this?" She shouted, "My daughter heard that Rose Scent launched a new limited edition product yesterday. She immediately bought it. But after using it, the doctor said that she had allergies and poisoning all over her body. Why are you selling poison?"
"If you don't give us an explanation right now, we won't be leaving. We will insist on closing your shop!" The other woman shouted.
"Yes! Your shop must be closed!" She shouted with a rage.
"Ma'am, I am very sorry about your daughter's condition. But please cooperate with our store manager. We'd like to see the notes for the perfume that your daughter has allergies to. We have to make sure that the product is really from our shop." Esther calmly said.

"I couldn't find the note, but my daughter bought the poisoned perfume bottle from this shop. I didn't bring that bottle today. I'm afraid that if you take it and give it to you, you will destroy or change it. I will lose my evidence." The woman said worriedly.
Anya had never been in this kind of situation. She couldn't even see the woman's daughter and didn't know what had happened to her.
But why was the mother so sure that the perfume was causing the allergy?
Anya didn't know what happened, but today's commotion was caused by her perfume. Someone claimed to have been harmed by the perfume she made and held her accountable.
"Ma'am, if it is our fault, we will take responsibility But you couldn't find the receipt and didn't mention your daughter's name. How do we make sure?" Anya said patiently.
"Ma'am, if you don't give me the notes or the perfume, we can't solve the problem even if you make a fuss in this place." Mila persuaded.
The woman then looked at her friend. The two of them looked at each other and said, "My daughter is named Wina. She came to this place yesterday afternoon to buy perfume."
As soon as she got her daughter's name, Mila immediately ordered several employees to check registration information.
Due to an egg-breaking event at the shop yesterday, all the visitors who got the prize had to leave their personal information in the shop so Rose Scent could send the prize.
If this woman's daughter had really come yesterday, her name would have been written there.
After that, the woman mentioned her daughter's cell phone number and the information was correct.
Wina did come to buy a bottle of perfume and get aromatherapy gifts from golden eggs so she left her contact at the registration.
"Ma'am, we found Miss Wina's purchase, but we still can't confirm that the allergen comes from our perfume. If you can't give a perfume bottle that causes Miss Wina's allergy, you can call the police to investigate." Mila took the initiative to involve the police.

"I heard that the new product you launched yesterday was made by someone named Anya. That woman is very cunning. She persuaded Aiden Atmajaya to cancel his engagement to the Tedjasukmana Family for her. Aiden can do anything to protect her. It's no use if I call the police." The woman said angrily.
Her friend also got angry, "You shouldn't let an inexperienced student make perfume. Are you guys doing this on purpose?"
People were seen to start to gather and joined in witnessing the commotion. Some people took out their cell phones to take photos and some of them also recorded and held live broadcasts.
Whispers of their comments were heard.
'Rose Scent perfume was made by an inexperienced student.'
'That's really creepy. Will my skin be destroyed if I use it?'
'Esther hasn't launched a new product in a very long time. Looks like she's out of her mind.'
'Right. otherwise, she won't allow someone who hasn't graduated to make perfume.'
'I heard that the perfume that was launched yesterday is made by Anya. Never mind allergies and poisoning, even if the user dies, Aiden can still defend her.'
…
Anya's face turned pale when she heard everyone's comments.
The woman could not prove that her daughter was indeed poisoned by Anya's perfume, but everyone believed her words. Everyone believed that she, who had done it, poisoned others by using her perfume.
"I know you are rich and powerful. I know I can't fight you. But I really love my daughter. My daughter is still lying in the hospital. As long as you give compensation money for my daughter, I will immediately leave this place." The woman said while half begging.
Upon hearing this, Anya immediately whispered to Esther, "Miss Esther, we can't give the money to her. If we give them money, isn't it the same as admitting that there is something wrong with my perfume?"
"What? That perfume is yours? Are you Anya who caused my daughter to have allergies?" When she heard Anya's words, the woman immediately guessed Anya's identity.
Anya looked panicked and unconsciously stepped back, "Ma'am, there are no allergens in my perfume. We can't trust you because you don't want to give us the perfume and don't want to go to the police."
Hearing this, the woman immediately felt angry, "You shameless child. You left my daughter lying in the hospital and now you are accusing me of threatening you. I will kill you!"
The two middle aged women rushed towards Anya and wanted to beat her up.
"What are you waiting for? Hurry up and stop them and call the police!" At Esther's orders, the shop clerks reacted immediately and stopped the two middle-aged women.
The two people couldn't catch Anya so they accidentally dropped all the perfume on the shelf on the floor.
"You want to sell this poisoned perfume to people? You scammers!" Then, the woman turned towards the people who were watching the commotion, "Have you seen it? Don't buy anything from this shop. If you already bought it, return it and ask for your money back. You could get allergic, poisoned, or even die!"
