Chapter 411 Unannounced Visit

It was cold in Imperia in November.Fortunately, the office was equipped with heaters.However, everything outside looked desolate. And the wintry breeze threatened to slice one's face should one venture outside.This morning, when Joey and Monica arrived at the workplace, they heard Selena's angry voice from her office."We signed the contracts months ago and you're bailing out? You agreed to accept the wooden logos, and now you won't? If this is a joke, it isn't funny."Joey patted Monica on her shoulder and walked toward the office.Monica then disappeared into the kitchen.Inside Selena's office, Joey sat down on the couch.With one hand on her waist, Selena looked at Joey and continued to bark, "You're telling me right now that the coordinator had no right to accept it on your behalf? Fine. I had your written approval, with your signature and company seal."I also keep a record of our conversation. This is a breach of trust and I will sue you for it!"Joey was confused a

Chapter 412 Collusion

Joey nodded. "She's Brook's wife."Monica wore a grim expression upon hearing Joey's answer."Brook's wife?" she repeated subconsciously."Shirley and Emily are twins. Emily is the elder twin, and Shirley is the younger twin," Joey explained as she invited Selena to have breakfast together.Sitting on the mat, Selena snickered, "Both are cowards. They hired people to sabotage us instead of fighting us fair and square."Joey patted her shoulder to console her. "Don't let them get to you."Before long, the conversation returned to the betrayal of Evy.Monica walked toward the door. A lot of things were going on in her mind.After breakfast, Harrison made a surprise visit. He looked tired but happy."I've convinced the board, but you two must come to my office for a meeting now." Harrison sat on the sofa and said keenly."Sure, no problem about that," Selena agreed.Harrison turned to her and asked, "So, should we go now?""Before I go, can I tell you something? You've heard w

Chapter 413 Is He Into Yvonne?

"Achoo!"Selena suddenly sneezed when she was presenting the partnership's prospects to the shareholders.Joey immediately pulled some tissue papers out for her."Please excuse Selena. Eldeville and Imperia have different climates and she hasn't grown completely acclimatized to it," Joey apologized.The shareholders were understanding enough to look past the mishap.Selena rubbed her nose and continued with a frown. "While the consumers still know about your brand, your designs were dated, like from a decade ago. Those who purchase your clothes are no longer young."Joey continued to show slides of Pixie's past collection. She paused when she saw their summer collection from last year.Many of the designs from last summer were actually unwanted designs taken from Locker's warehouse. Someone inside the company must have bought those stagnant goods from Locker behind the shareholders' backs. They then got rid of Locker's logo and stitched Pixie's on top of it.Suffice to stay, Pi

Chapter 414 You Won't Impress Him

Zachary's blunt response rendered Joey speechless.Inside the restaurant, both parties sat not too far from each other at different tables.Joey and Harrison talked about Evy's betrayal."We used good fabrics. I'm sure the sales will be good if we come out with a new product. Anyway, when we make the announcement tomorrow, we will have a surge of popularity. But you must reconsider the price range of your clothes, be them cheap or high-end products."High fashion makes a lot of profit, but selling a large amount of affordable, cheap clothing will generate a sizable revenue too," Joey told Harrison courteously.Harrison nodded. "I agree. Once we announce our collaboration, we will adjust the price. Emmen has tons of followers but they mean nothing if they do not buy our products. I'm planning to target the general consumer this time. What do you think?"Selena then said, "I'm glad we are on the same page."While Joey and Harrison were engaged in a fruitful conversation, the atmos

Chapter 415 Underhanded Tactics

Zachary turned to Joey and asked impassively, "Why? Does your company need a chef this urgently?""I know what you're getting at, Zachary. But my grandma isn't like yours. Even in the village, she prefers to tend to her land from day to night. Otherwise, she'll feel bored," answered Joey.Zachary had no idea how happy Monica was engaging in these mundane activities."But she might be getting too old for work." Zachary's expression softened.Ignoring him, Joey opened her laptop to begin drawing a new design.After Evy's betrayal, she had to rush some new designs out.As this would be her first time working with Pixie, Joey figured she needed to oversee the project personally. They had agreed to be Emmen's subsidiary company, so Emmen had to perform due diligence.Zachary observed Joey in silence on the couch.After a while, he asked, "Did you go to Taysee Village to investigate Yvonne's identity?"Joey raised her eyes to look at him. "Yes. What about you?"Zachary was surprise

Chapter 416 Bossing Everyone Around

Joey agreed with what Selena said. She, too, felt angry but powerless.Suddenly, the office phone rang.Selena saw that the caller was Pixie and picked it up right away."Hello?" she uttered coldly.Joey leaned closer to eavesdrop."It's me, Ms. Sanders. Can you contain the rumors online so we can release news of our collaboration later?" said Harrison professionally.Selena was pleasantly surprised. "Your company doesn't have any issue with the rumors?""What's the point of bringing this up when we're working together? Who knows what's real and what's fake anymore?"We just have to do our job and dispel the rumors. Don't forget the press conference tonight," said Harrison nonchalantly.A scandal broke out right when they were about to collaborate. It didn't take Harrison too long to realize that this was yet another sabotage attempt launched against Emmen."So you don't believe the rumors?" Selena was still shocked.Harrison chuckled. "You told me that someone's trying to s

Chapter 417 Can Never Match Our Heights

Inside the press conference, Joey and Selena sat in their seats. Harrison and other higher-ups from the company followed suit.Zachary and others were seated on the first row below the stage. The rows behind were given to other business owners of the fashion industry.Cheerfully and sprightly, the emcee walked onto the stage."As you all know, Pixie is a staple among the domestic brands. I was wonderfully surprised when they announced a cross-generational collaboration with the upcoming star, Emmen."The emcee greeted everyone on stage.She then turned to Harrison. "Mr. Zucman, what prompted you to work with Emmen?"Harrison faced the camera and uttered casually, "Pixie is slowly fading out of public view. It is an honor to be able to work with Emmen."He implied in a tactful way that Pixie was past its heyday, and a collaboration with Emmen could hopefully help Pixie regain its former glory.The emcee nodded and commented, "When Pixie was first launched, it stole many women's

Chapter 418 Like a Puppy

Many resonated with what Selena had said.The journalist was furious, but he was quickly escorted out by security.Thus ended the Q&A session. The group then went to a restaurant.Joey sat next to Selena and told Harrison the inspirations she had obtained during the conference."Pixie still supports their own members after a decade. I think your brand is sentimental, and I want to design something along that theme." Joey showed Harrison her notebook.Selena had already seen Joey's design, so she could afford to space out a little bit.She turned her head and looked to the side, finding the person she expected to see.Hanson met her gaze. As they locked eyes, something unfamiliar budded inside Selena's heart.She withdrew her gaze and returned to Joey and Harrison's conversation."I like your idea. But I'm not well-versed in fashion. I'm sure you know what the audience likes, given the number of fans you have," Harrison was saying.He was only summoned back to be the CEO in an

Chapter 419 In Trouble

When Joey heard what Selena told her, she was happy for her."It'd be great if you could be with Harrison like this," Joey said with a smile that reached her eyes as she held Selena's hand in hers."I sure hope so. I don't ask for much in a boyfriend. After all, we're all busy and don't have the time and energy to mess around like youngsters anymore." Selena seemed happy, too.Joey couldn't help but feel bad for Hanson. He was such a dull person that Selena would never choose him."How about you? Did you sit with Zachary for an entire hour without saying a word? Very romantic, aren't you?" Selena teased."I can sit with him if that's what he wants. I don't harbor any feelings for him, anyway," Joey said coldly."Honestly speaking, I'm quite certain that Zachary still likes you. Why else would he follow you everywhere you go? I refuse to believe that he wants nothing from you!" Selena said with conviction.She'd noticed Zachary expressing his love for Joey in a very restrained ma

Chapter 420 Your Wife

"What are you doing? I'm her husband. Can't I come here for my wife?" the man hollered.Joey wanted to push him away, only to have him tighten his grip."Let go of her. She's hurt! She needs to go to the hospital now!" yelled one of the people who came to welcome Joey.The man hugged Joey even tighter. Joey felt an overwhelming force crushing her chest. She almost couldn't breathe.The cameras from the paparazzi around her flashed incessantly. They were exhilarated—news of Joey's marital status would surely go viral on the internet."No! I know she is safe. She only pretends to be hurt because she doesn't want to forgive me."She came to Imperia to avoid me. I'm sure of it. And I came to apologize to her," the man wailed thunderously."Let go!" Joey squeezed out two words as she caught her breath.The man heard what she had said and began sobbing. "I'm sorry, my love. I shouldn't have pissed you off. Come back to me. I have reflected upon myself. I know I did so much—""Shut u
