Everyone's preferences and needs were firmly grasped, and the last one to receive a gift was Daniel, whose gift was different from everyone else's—a bottle of perfume. It had a peculiar fragrance; the top notes were light and fresh, while the base notes were calm and tranquil.
Daniel also prepared a gift for the meeting. He prepared a bouquet of flowers. Last night, Levin suggested that, in addition to the flowers, he should also present a brooch. After all, a necklace or the like would be too valuable, and giving such a gift at the first meeting would seem too assertive. A brooch, on the other hand, would be more subtle and not lack sincerity, without giving the impression of being oppressive or taking oneself lightly.
