Chapter 360

Author: Walking on Clouds
Mark almost burst out laughing. "First of all, while the company doesn't promote the comic as much as Aralyn's, we're not too shabby with it either. They should meet your needs."

He noticed Avery's eagerness to explain and raised a hand to signal her to stay calm.

"Secondly, if the comic you're managing is really as amazing as you claim and can bring significant profits to the company, the company will naturally increase its promotional efforts later. You can rest assured about that."

Avery was still dissatisfied.

Mark continued, "Let me put it this way—when Aralyn's comic first started, the company didn't pay much attention to it either. She was the one who posted short storylines every day, gradually building up her readership.

"Avery, think about it carefully. Even the woman Mr. Hughes favors received this treatment. And you expect your author to receive a better promotion than her? Do you think that's realistic?"

Mark looked at Avery's increasingly unpleasant expression, re

    "When she sees her boyfriend being intimate with someone else, she'll definitely question Julian. No matter how much Julian loves her, he won't be able to tolerate a shrew always confronting him hysterically."Luna revealed a triumphant smile. "Over time, their relationship will surely fall apart. I'll use this opportunity to take advantage and swoop in. So what if Julian is aloof and doesn't like to interact with people? In the end, he'll still fall for me easily."Avery smiled widely. "Why hasn't that day come yet? I can't wait any longer."…After ending her conversation with Luna, Avery turned on her computer. She created accounts on various platforms and began uploading Luna's work.Mark said he needed to see the results of Luna's comic, right? Once the comic was posted, it wouldn't take long before it attracted a large number of readers.She would then bring the concrete data to Mark and show him how good her judgment was and how poor his was for promoting Aralyn's utterly

    Although I didn't know who left the comment, I could sense that the person was deliberately steering the narrative. They were trying to make readers think I was at fault in this marriage.However, they used mutual affection as an excuse. Did Luna's actions not count as interfering in someone else's marriage? Did Shayne and Luna being together not qualify as infidelity?I didn't refute her. I replied calmly, "So, what you're saying is that once you're married if your husband gets involved with another woman, they'll have done nothing wrong as long as it's true love? That it's still right even if the man betrayed his marriage, and the woman hurt the man's wife with her selfish behavior?""Obviously," the other person replied in an instant.Upon reading this, I couldn't help but laugh derisively. I typed on my phone at a leisurely pace and replied, "By your logic, what's the point of marriage? Isn't marriage meant to bind two people together, ensuring mutual loyalty?""But don't you

    What disappointed Luna the most was that no matter how much she tried to stir things up, the fans only expressed doubt. They unanimously chose to demand an explanation from Aralyn.All Aralyn did was have a brief discussion with her in the comments, but it was as if the fans instantly understood her thoughts and continued to stand by her unconditionally.A hint of jealousy flashed in Luna's eyes.If the incidents that occurred after the marriage couldn't bring Aralyn down, then what about those that happened before the marriage?Luna smiled maliciously as she proceeded to upload a video filled with implications.In the video was a woman who, after going abroad, didn't break up with her boyfriend. Instead, another woman forcefully inserted herself into their relationship, causing the couple to part ways. Later, when the woman returned to the country, she rekindled her romance with her ex. However, the former mistress accused her of ruining her relationship.…The narrative shif

    Julian walked faster upon hearing that. Although Mark was very curious about the details, he understood that it was a private matter between Julian and Aralyn as a couple. It would be rude if he went over to eavesdrop on them. As such, he suppressed his curiosity and returned to his own office.…Julian pushed open the office door, walked over to me, and asked, "Are you feeling okay?""I'm feeling great." I then stared at him, confused. "Why do you ask?"He held my hand and said, "Mark told me someone was insulting you. I was worried you'd be upset..."I chuckled and replied, "Oh, you're talking about that. It's nothing—just something Luna stirred up. I resolved it easily and even dragged her down in the process. Now, more people are criticizing her than me."Julian's worry eased. "You're not angry?"I responded confidently, "Things have already reached this point. Getting angry won't solve the issue. It's better to take the opportunity to think about how to turn a crisis into

    Everyone thought I made sense and began to criticize Luna. "What's wrong with her?""Was ruining someone else's marriage as a mistress wasn't enough for her? Now she's repeatedly stirring up trouble in the victim's comment section.""Is she nuts?"My mood gradually improved as I read everyone's comments.I lazily leaned back on the couch and calmly thought about Luna. She provoked me because she was jealous that I had so many fans who liked me, right? She was trying to incite my readers into betraying and hurting me.Her goal was to make me stop drawing, but life wasn't that simple. The more she wanted me to quit making comics, the more determined I was to continue. I was also determined to constantly improve the comic's quality. Whether it was the story or the art, I wanted to improve.Only then would more people like me, and Luna would become even more angry.I planned to use this approach to frustrate Luna and make her suffer before she gave birth. I considered it interes

    Shayne was here to seek justice for Luna, so he naturally had no intention of hiding it. "Luna," he answered without hesitation.Julian didn't have the time to keep track of what happened online, but he could more or less guess what was happening. It was probably about Luna stirring up trouble for Aralyn online.However, it failed. Since Luna wasn't willing to accept her failure, she got Shayne to stand up for her. Julian crossed his long legs. There was an obvious sneer on his handsome face.Shayne took a deep breath. "Mr. Hughes, this matter has nothing to do with you. I don't want to take out my anger on the innocent, so please hand the phone to Aralyn.""She's my girlfriend," Julian replied, always quick to defend Aralyn. "Mr. Pearce, I've heard a bit about the feud between the two of them today."Shayne saw that Julian wasn't cooperating, so he asked, "So, you want to protect her?"Julian sneered. "Obviously. She wasn't in the wrong from the start. Wouldn't it make me

    "What? Do you think she's easy to bully because no one's protecting her?""No," Shayne quickly responded."That better be the case," Julian replied disdainfully.With that, he immediately hung up.…Hearing Julian's voice, I slowly walked out of the cubicle and stopped in front of him. "Was that Shayne on the phone just now?"Julian didn't intend to hide that from me. "Yeah. After Luna failed to get you in trouble and got criticized, she probably felt upset and called him to complain. He believed her."As he spoke, he wrapped his arm around my waist and pulled me onto his lap. "He wanted to stand up for her."I asked disdainfully, "Are both of them out of their minds?""Yeah," replied Julian as his other hand held mine. He gently caressed the back of my hand and continued, "I don't get it. He's clearly constantly protecting Luna. Where does he get the audacity to say that he loves you?" I sneered and said, "I don't think he has feelings for me at all. He's deliberately sayin

    Luna thought eagerly that as long as she could get Julian, then everything Aralyn was enjoying now would become hers.It would be nice if that day could come sooner.…Julian picked a small restaurant this time. He also ordered their signature dishes.He then introduced the restaurant to me. "This restaurant was recommended by Mark. He said the food is really good, so I thought I'd bring you here to try it."The dishes were served.I took a bite. The cooking was just right, and the flavors were incredible. I nodded in agreement, "It's indeed delicious."Seeing that I was genuinely satisfied, Julian let out a sigh of relief. "I'm glad you like it."I hummed in response and continued eating."Mr. Hughes, is that really you?" A young girl, likely just out of college, suddenly appeared and skipped over to Julian.She had a look of disbelief on her face. "The last time I promoted my parents' restaurant to you, I thought you wouldn't like such a small place. I didn't think you'd

    Julian chuckled. "Not eating breakfast until now is bad for your health.""I don't think I've been working for that long," I said as I picked up my phone to check the time. It was 10:10 am. I instantly felt a bit baffled.Julian's lips curved into a subtle smile. "For the sake of your health, you should eat some breakfast. I made scrambled eggs and some sides. Come downstairs and eat before you continue working.""Alright," I agreed immediately.I knew that skipping breakfast was bad for my health. Besides, as an adult, I should set a good example for the younger ones.Otherwise, if they saw me skipping breakfast, they might not want to eat either. That would be a problem.I walked downstairs alongside Julian."People used to call me a workaholic, saying my mind was always occupied with work. But you seem even more deserving of that title than I am." Julian sighed.I joked, "If I hadn't met you, I probably would never have found a boss as good as you. So, of course, I have to s

    "How much is the internship salary for each employee? If they exceed their task requirements, how much of a commission do they get? You have to figure all of this out yourself. Once you have thought through these questions, your company will be ready for official operation," Danny concluded.Alice nodded, somewhat understanding. "Thank you, Dad.""You're welcome." Danny looked at Alice, feeling that the girl he and his wife had always cherished and protected seemed to have finally grown up.The corners of his lips curled up unconsciously. "If you run into problems you can't solve, you can always come to me. I will definitely help you.""You're the best, Dad!" Alice remarked playfully."Of course. You're my only daughter. If I don't treat you well, who else would I treat well?" Danny said proudly.After chatting with Danny a bit, Alice returned to her room. She took out her phone and sent a message to Joseph."I've written a lot of stuff. How about we meet tomorrow to go over eve

    "If they're truly talented, they wouldn't need to take over the company. They might as well go find a job elsewhere. After all, it's more promising than working for us. The only people you can hire are those unqualified yet overconfident ones," Joseph remarked, smiling.Lucas sighed. "Why did you come back? Need something?"Did he suddenly realize how tough it was outside and decide to return home for an easier life?Joseph took out a notebook and said, "Of course! I want to start a company. We already have a project. But we don't know how to manage it, so we wanted to ask you first."As Lucas stared at Joseph, he realized that Joseph had really improved after being away from the family.Before, when he tried to get Joseph to join his company, Joseph always said he wasn't interested.But now, he wanted to start his own business.Lucas sat down and shared all the knowledge he had accumulated over the years.Joseph didn't bother filtering what was good or bad; he just wrote every

    "Otherwise, at the slightest disturbance, we'd start worrying about what we'll do in the future if their company goes bankrupt.""That's true." Joseph imagined himself running a major company and becoming number one in the industry, surrounded by people treating him like a star.He couldn't help but smile. "Alright! We'll do as you say!""Then go home and ask your dad how to manage a company. Remember to take detailed notes so you don't forget the most crucial and important points. I'll ask my dad as well. Don't worry. I'll write everything down."We'll have a discussion afterward. For the parts that are the same, we'll follow them. For the differences, we'll combine the best of both," uttered Alice.Joseph responded excitedly, "Alright."He had been troubled emotionally, thinking he shouldn't waver for another woman just because of what Alice said.But now, his mind was entirely focused on business.He believed that once he succeeded, women would naturally come to him and purs

    But when he saw the high prices, he suddenly felt like it wasn't worth it. A regular apartment only cost a few thousand dollars a month. One night in a hotel cost tens of thousands of dollars. It was enough to rent a place for a whole year and even hire a housekeeper to clean up the place.In the end, Joseph booked a hotel for 200 dollars. After checking in, he realized that while it wasn't as luxurious as the expensive ones, there wasn't that big of a difference. It was still inhabitable.…Alice had finally found such a good way to earn money, so she wanted to take full advantage of this opportunity. Even though she was already very frugal with her spending, and her salary and bonuses from the company were quite high, she had to admit that making a lot of money on her own still made her feel really happy.As she lay under the covers, her mind was filled with thoughts of how to expand her and Joseph's business. She also thought of how to make more people aware of them.However, A

    So, Avery choosing another man was the reason he was so upset. Joseph suddenly stopped in his tracks. However, he remembered that Avery had never actually said she loved him. It was Alice who said it.It was because he saw Avery trying to please him that he naturally assumed Alice was right—that Avery had a crush on him.Joseph had a vague sense of unease. He turned around and went back to Alice's house. He raised his hand and rang the doorbell. "Hello?"Upon hearing this, Alice walked to the gate with a yawn. "What is it?"Joseph stared at Alice as he asked, "I wanted to ask… Avery has never loved me, right?"Alice was stumped by his question. How did he figure it out?She looked away, feeling a little guilty.Joseph's voice rose. "So, you've been lying to me from the very beginning? Why did you do it? Was it for revenge?"Since she had been exposed, Alice had no intention of hiding it anymore. "Yeah, why else? You suddenly found a woman to date and called her my substitute. Y

    "However, you need to let me finish. Being handsome is important, but it's not the most important thing. You and I both know that."Joseph was still very upset. "Yeah?"Alice continued, "A man's career is also very important. The reason she chose someone else now is probably because your career isn't successful enough. If you became the CEO of a publicly listed company right now and approached her, she'll think she hit the jackpot!"Joseph sneered and replied, "I get it now. When I return, I will do everything I can to build my career. Once I've succeeded, I will find her and tell her about the great man she missed out on!"Alice awkwardly looked away. If he went to find Avery, she would be confused because she never liked him in the first place. However, Alice dared not say that. She merely smiled and said, "Then work hard!"Joseph was still feeling miserable.Alice thought that in this state, Joseph was particularly suited to working for her and helping her make money.

    However, Joseph saw Avery open the door. She then wrapped her arms around the man's neck, standing on her tiptoes to kiss him.Joseph felt like he had been struck by lightning. Didn't Avery like him? Why was she so affectionate with another man? Could it be that she was stringing him along?Joseph quickly turned around in a panic, took the elevator down, and left the building.…The man heard the noise and turned around. He looked at Joseph's retreating figure and asked, "Do you know him?"Avery shook her head and replied, "No."The man smiled and said, "Then he must have gone to the wrong floor. Avery, I miss you so much."Avery pulled the man into her room forcefully. She then slammed the door shut behind them.…Joseph ran out of the neighborhood. However, his face felt a little cold. He was crying.He had been abandoned by his family, and his friends weren't generous with him. He once thought there were still people who loved him, but the only person who secretly liked

    Alice knew she could help. She knew her friends were inexperienced, so when they started their businesses, they were full of passion. However, they suddenly realized they didn't know what kind of projects to do once they had secured the venue, hired the people, and wanted to start the project.Alice thought that starting with them would be a good option. Sure enough, after sending out her message, she received responses full of complaints about how hard entrepreneurship was, how they were completely in the dark, and had no idea what projects to pursue or how to find business partners.She actively messaged them, carefully confirming their needs, and then passed the information on to Joseph one by one. Once Joseph received the information, he found that a large portion of it perfectly matched his friends' projects. Even if his friends were not working on related projects, he would find other people who could work with them.The both of them were very happy once they ensured that ev
