Faye glanced at him. "Aren't you busy today? Why are you here so early?"

"I've concluded my work for now. You, on the other hand …" Cedric stared seriously at her. "I heard someone is picking on you."

News sure traveled fast, and Faye tugged the corner of her mouth, not knowing what to say.

"If you don't want to take this order, I will handle it for you." He studied the resigned look on her face adoringly.

She batted her eyes and raised an eyebrow. "It's fine. I can handle this."

"Alright, then." Cedric nodded and opened the car door for her.

The young girl who came to speak to him hadn't left, and Cedric frowned at her. He closed the car door and was about to head to the driver's seat when the girl approached him again.

"Handsome, since your girlfriend is here, I can explain everything to her if you don't want to upset her. I just want your number to complete my mission."

The girl was in a sleeveless top with a white mini-skirt that outlined her curves. Her fair skin and do

    Back in the office, it was already past six. After waiting for over half an hour, Anastasia's patience wore thin, and she vented her anger on Jamie. Jamie held her temper and handled Anastasia calmly. However, Anastasia didn't let Jamie go because of that and started yelling in the office, picking on Jamie at every opportunity. Employees in the office had yet to go off work at six, and as they listened to the fuss Anastasia was making, they started whispering to one another. Everyone knew that Faye accepted an atrociously high-paying job, and anyone who could afford to pay that much couldn't be easygoing. Someone from the secretary department had said that "Ms. 200 million" came, looking smug and malicious. She was clearly someone hard to deal with and likely came to pick on Faye. "Ms. 200 million" was a nickname they came up with for Anastasia. After all, there weren't many who would spend so much on a gown, especially not in Jeorgia. Anastasia was the first person ever, a

    Though Anastasia said she wanted to view the design in five minutes, ten minutes had passed by the time she returned to Faye's office after composing herself. Faye apologized to her with a smile and even asked about her injuries. Anastasia's expression darkened further as she glared daggers at Faye. She knew that Faye did it on purchase. Faye was clearly acting that way because she knew Cedric was there to back her up. "Cedric has to be blind to fall for such a pretentious woman," Anastasia thought. Faye ignored her glare and led her into the meeting room before showing her the design. "Ms. Streep, you want to see the design, right? It's all ready. Don't hesitate to voice your questions or concerns, and please let me know if amendments are needed. I promise to make them as soon as possible to hand you your gown thirteen days from now."Listening to Faye's seemingly respectful tone, Anastasia felt appalled, knowing that Faye was trying to toy with her on purpose.

    Faye expected Anastasia to nitpick and find faults, so she wasn't surprised when she heard these questions. Instead, she smiled. She wasn't afraid of Anastasia's attempts to cause problems. On the contrary, she would be more concerned if Anastasia didn't raise any objections now and did something behind her back afterward. Faye patiently explained the inspiration behind this design and some basic principles. She systematically addressed all the questions Anastasia had raised, but Anastasia was still displeased. With a dark expression, she said, "So, you're telling me your design has perfect theoretical support and fully complies with the requirements. Is that what you're saying?"Faye smiled and replied, "I wouldn't dare to say it's perfect. It's a matter of personal interpretation. After all, this gown is customized for you, Ms. Streep. It's only perfect if you find it perfect."Anastasia stood up and said coldly, "Sure, you did indeed create this design according to my requir

    Anastasia was startled. She quickly looked toward the large screen and saw that the design draft was replaced by multiple frames, each corresponding to a person. Most of them were foreigners, including a young man who stood out due to his youthful appearance and black-framed glasses.The conversation had been in broken English by the foreigners. The young man, who had remained quiet so far, spoke, "Ms. Fischer's design not only perfectly aligns with the theme's requirements but also introduces strong design elements beyond the theme. It's a masterpiece. I once designed something similar when I worked at Allure Designs, and it sold for over three billion at an auction ..."Yes, the speaker was Felton, also known by his designer alias, Camerson Jones. He continued with a smile, "Ms. Fischer rarely designs gowns, but when she does, her designs are exquisite. I can't imagine what this client can possibly ask for if she's not content with this design."Following this, several other for

    This was her first time kissing him in secret, but she was bold in doing so. Jamie wasn't in the office, but she could come in at any moment as they were in public.However, seeing how Cedric insisted on staying with her until he fell asleep on the couch, her heart melted. His breathtaking features lacked the usual seductiveness and majesty. With his eyes closed, it gave him a childlike, innocent appearance instead. His lips were enticing, and she felt it would be a mistake not to do anything to him. Without hesitation, she leaned in for a kiss. The soft sensation caused her heart to race, and she licked his lips. It tasted sweet, which was exactly the taste of the man she loved. She smiled and was about to move away when a hand reached out to hold her head in place. Shocked, her eyes widened, and she panted when she met Cedric's enticing eyes. "Oh no! I've been caught! My cool image is gone!" she thought. Faye blushed, and her breath quickened. She instinctively tri

    When Faye arrived at the office well past midnight, the entire building was still well-lit. The offices of the CEO and chief designer on the top floor were particularly luminous. Faye strode toward Lincoln's office and heard him shouting as she entered."What else do you have to say for yourself? Landon, I regret telling Ms. Fischer to give you a chance. I should have told her that you're narrow-minded, dim-witted and that you'd do anything to undermine me!"Landon's expression darkened as he raised his gaze. "What are you trying to say, Lincoln? That I'm responsible for this?" He sneered. "Why would I do anything to jeopardize the reputation and future of Light Moon Designs? Do you take me for a fool who doesn't know between right and wrong?"Lincoln scoffed and glared at landon. "Who else could it have been? There are only a few of us who know about this. When Ms. Fischer inquired about your reliability, I assured her that you're dependable at work and would never mess aroun

    Reading the comments that criticized Light Moon Designs, Faye smiled and put away the tablet. She then turned to look at Lincoln and Landon. "What are your thoughts?" she asked.Lincoln calmed down and took a deep breath before responding."I agree with you, Ms. Fischer. Allure Designs intentionally timed their new product release to coincide with ours. Over the years, they've been in competition with Light Moon Designs, but we've always been ahead of them. "Allure Designs can't compete with us in terms of brand position and market reach. The only thing they have over Light Moon Designs is the high price of their products."He continued, "To justify these prices, they openly pledged to exclusively offer Cameron's designed dresses in limited quantities, a move that considerably restricts their expansion and growth."While branding products as limited editions could indeed elevate their prices, the limitation in quantity would naturally decrease their profit margin.In contrast,

    It was practically impossible for someone not to take action when faced with relentless attacks from others.Faye smiled as she leaned back on the couch. "I have my own plan. Since they want to drag Light Moon Designs down, let's first feign ignorance and wait until tomorrow."With that, Faye got up and walked out of the office. Lincoln, on the other hand, was becoming increasingly anxious—especially when he saw the situation escalating on Facebook every time he refreshed the page. Topics related to Light Moon Designs had increased to five or six with every refresh. At this rate, Light Moon Designs could be in serious trouble tomorrow. "Ms. Fischer ..." Lincoln hurried to catch up with Faye, desperately trying to keep her there.At that moment, Landon returned from the restroom. When he saw that Faye was leaving, he asked nervously, "Ms. Fischer, where are you going?""Home." Faye crossed her arms, her tone indifferent. "This time, our enemy came well-prepared. The situat

    Faye had made arrangements for Jeorgia, while Cedric started an investigation into what the Anderson and Garcia families were doing. Faye knew that this was a trap and that nothing happened by coincidence. However, she didn't know what the culprit's motive was. She didn't have to wait for long because she received a phone call from Tracy later that afternoon. "Faye, you could've come at me if you were upset. Why did you target Grandma? She treated you well, yet you killed her over such trivial matters. Are you even human?"Faye smirked. "Since when do you care about her, Tracy?""What are you talking about? That's our grandmother. You did this, didn't you?""Would you believe me if I said I didn't do it?" Faye sneered. "Don't think that you can do anything you want just because you married someone rich. Faye, don't even dream of getting your murderer of a mother out! I won't let you. You better come back to Jeorgia, or this won't ever be over."With that, Tracy hung up.

    Clark's words only enraged Flora. Eleanor abused Faye when she was a child, which led to Faye getting sick repeatedly. She even allowed Lizzie to go into their home to poison Faye while Flora was at work. Faye suffered through so much hardship at the time and came close to dying. She was already poisoned when she was pregnant with Faye, which meant Faye was born with poison in her body. Though Flora tried her best to counter the poison, Faye was still more frail than ordinary children. Eleanor knew that Faye wasn't Clint's child, so she had always been displeased with her. "Had I known that she's the kind of person who can harm a child, I would never leave Faye with her." Rage filled Flora's eyes. Just as she was about to leave, Eleanor started coughing on the bed. Clark shouted and ran outside to get the doctor. Until the doctor arrived, there were two minutes when Flora was alone with Eleanor. It wasn't until the doctor arrived that Flora found out Clark didn't even

    Lizzie and Clint were momentarily stunned, confused by Tracy's words. "I just received a call from Uncle. He said that Grandma passed away and we need to go home."Clint jolted and collapsed onto the ground. "What?"Tracy smirked. "They can't reach you or Mom, so he called me instead. We need to go home right now.""Ha! So what if she's dead? She doesn't see us as family, so why should we go back?" Lizzie scoffed in contempt. Eleanor disliked her right from the start. If Eleanor didn't stop her from marrying Clint at the very beginning, Flora would have never gotten married to Clint. Though Eleanor helped get rid of Flora in the end, she continued to mistreat Lizzie when she finally married Clint. Eleanor resented Flora for being too strong-willed and disrespectful. However, she looked down on Lizzie for not being as talented as Flora and incapable of bringing more profit to the Brown family. She kept comparing Lizzie to Flora and bossed her around. Lizzie remained patie

    "Damn it! Damn it! It has to be Faye! This has to be her doing. Damn it!" Tracy pushed everything on the table to the ground. Her face twisted viciously with anger. Over the past few days, scandals about her have circulated on the internet. Even information about her age when she started sleeping around and the number of men she slept with for money was released. Evidence of her plotting to steal Anthon away and bring down the Lynch family was released as well.

At the moment, he didn't need to pay to obtain attention. After Tracy declared her innocence, everyone considered Ethan a jerk who heartlessly searched for an excuse to divorce Monica.

"Tracy, look at what you've done to your boyfriend.""She stole Faye's boyfriend and sent Anthon's family to prison. Now, she's here destroying Mr. Garcia's family. He lost everything because of her. How interesting," Clark chimed in. He still remembered how Tracy insulted him when he tried to ask Ethan for money. He held a grudge. Tracy's expression darkened.

"I'm sorry, but they are not my relatives. Please handle it according to the law." After hanging up, she looked at Cedric, who was waiting for breakfast. She hugged him from behind and said with a smile, "Guess what interesting scene I witnessed last night?"Cedric turned his head to study the triumphant look on her face. He smiled.
