Chapter 79 He Anticipates Annaliseâs Surprise She felt a little uncomfortable immediately.
But she quickly got over it.
Abigail thought that being a tool was not that bad either.
As long as she could crush Annalise, she would be the most valuable tool. Alexander would not be able to do without her then.
Anyway, she had no feelings for Alexander. She only liked his status as the son of the Parks family.
She also liked the fact that he was doted on by Tony and could challenge Julian.
To Alexander, she was a tool to crush Annalise and Julian. To her, Alexander was no different.
Alexander was only a tool to slap Annalise and Julian in the face.
Those two people were the ones she hated the most in her whole life up till that point.
Annalise grew up in the countryside. Yet not only did Annalise not show her respect, but she also dared to snatch the Parks familyâs Moonlight Group.
And Julian was even more detestable.
All she did was misunderstood him to be a 52-year-old man.
Didnât she express her goodwill after that?
Did he have to bear such a grudge and marry Annalise immediately after?
She had already humbled herself to that extent, but he refused to give ground.
Since that was the case, he better not blame her for helping Alexander.
After Abigail took a shower, she saw Alexander lying on the sofa.
She immediately sat down on the sofa and deliberately chatted with Alexander. âAlex, are we leaving for Horington tomorrow night?â
âYeah,â Alexander replied.
âTomorrow, Iâll ask my friends to see if anyone has seen or heard of Master Quigley,â Abigail said.
âSure,â Alexander replied.
Didnât Alexander marry her just because he wanted her to crush Annalise in medicine and fashion?
âAlex, the sofa is so small. Why donât you move on the bed?â Abigailâs voice had a hint of seduction.
She was not obsessed with that kind of thing, but she knew what she wanted.
Since she wanted to gain a foothold in Jadeborough, her best option was to get pregnant with the Parks familyâs descendants and become Alexanderâs wife. In the future, she would be alongside Alexander in power.
âNo need. Iâm sleepy. Good night!â Alexanderâs tone carried a hint of imperceptible disdain.
Abigail was of use to him, but he was not interested in sleeping with her.
He was disgusted at the thought of her past with Benjamin Quigley.
âAlright, good night,â Abigail said gently.
She was furious inside!
He was truly a bastard. He showered her with all kinds of attention and pandering, begging her to marry him, and look at how his attitude changed!
Abigail returned to bed, pulled the thin blanket over herself, and slept.
The next day.
When Annalise opened her eyes, she was surprised that Julian was not in sight since it was only six in the morning She recalled that when she woke up in the middle of the night yesterday, she was in his arms. Her heart skipped a beat, and the corners of her lips could not help but curl up.
She got up and heard Julian on the phone. âThereâs no need to invite Ms. Susan. She has a good relationship with Layla Ziegler and wonât help us. Weâll use the designers we have. Itâs just a showcase this time.
We can release more new items anytime in the future. It doesnât matter who it is weâre working with as long as they can do the job. After all, itâs the sales numbers that matter.â
Hearing footsteps, Julian lowered his voice even more and said, âAlright, you can arrange it. Iâm busy.â
He then hurriedly hung up the phone and opened the bathroom door.
Seeing Annalise at the bathroom door, he smiled and asked gently, âDid I wake you up?â
âNo,â Annalise replied.
âItâs still early. Why donât you sleep a little longer?â Julian reached over and grabbed Annaliseâs hand.
After confirming that her hand was warm, he was relieved.
Annalise smiled and said, âIâm awake. Iâm not sleepy anymore. Itâs only August. Itâs not cold.â
Julian said, âJadeborough is starting to get cold. The winter clothes are hitting the store shelves.â
âIn terms of clothing sales, do you have to compete with Alexander?â Annalise asked.
Julian smiled and said, âItâs not that we have to compete, but Alexanderâs branch office has been secretly competing with me. Previously electronic products, now clothes, and everyday products in the future. If the headquartersâ performance loses to the branch office, Iâm afraid someone will make a fuss of it again.â
Towards the end, Julianâs smile gradually turned cold.
âYou donât have a particularly good fashion designer?â Annalise asked.
âI do!â Julian said.
Of course, he did, but he had no plans to reveal that for the time being.
His true capability was definitely not what others were aware of.
What he displayed in front of others was just the tip of the iceberg.
There was no need to reveal all his trump cards. The more trump cards a person had, the more confidence they would have.
Only by having all kinds of trump cards could a person truly be in charge of their fate or even the fate of others.
âReally?â Annalise asked.
âYeah.â
âItâs fine then.â
âYouâre not sleeping anymore?â Julian asked.
The feeling of being cared for by her was very gratifying.
âYeah, Iâm wide awake,â Annalise said.
âIâll help you squeeze the toothpaste!â Julian took Annaliseâs toothbrush and squeezed the toothpaste for her.
âWell, thanks!â Annaliseâs heart warmed when she saw his actions.
Julian reached out and patted Annaliseâs head. âWith our close relationship, donât say thanks in the future.â
Annaliseâs heart thumped heavily again.
Just as she was about to brush her teeth, she thought of something and asked, âYou said that for clothing, the final criterion is sales, right?â
Seeing that Annalise was so concerned about him, the smile on Julianâs face widened. He laughed and said, âYes, itâs ultimately about sales. Annie, do you have an idea?â
She had been surprising him. He felt that she would probably have a new surprise for him.
âThereâs one. But I wonder if itâs feasible? Iâll brush my teeth first.â Annalise started brushing her teeth.
âAlright, weâll talk later.â Julian was looking forward to Annaliseâs idea even more.
After Annalise finished brushing her teeth, he was not in a hurry. Breakfast was not so early, so Julian brought Annalise downstairs to look at the vegetables in the backyard.
He knew that Annalise liked vegetable gardens.
Annalise took the initiative to say, âThere are two proper ways to increase clothing sales. One is concerning the designer. If the designerâs design meets the customerâs needs and becomes a hit, it will definitely sell well. The second way is to have good models. If they look amazing on the model, there is a high probability of the clothes blowing up as well. My idea is riskier, but if thereâs no better way, you can try it.â
Julian was full of anticipation. âGo ahead.â
Annaliseâs face turned red when she saw Julianâs gentle and scorching gaze. She said, âIâm considered a hot topic in Jadeborough now. Many people defame me but also many are fans of mine. Iâm thinking that if the clothes appear great on me, the effect might not be inferior to advertising. Of course, Iâm just thinking about. it. I donât know anything about business. You should follow your normal train of thought.
I believe that your ideas will be better.â
Julian did not speak. He gazed at Annalise with a gentle smile.
That smile made Annalise even more nervous. âJust pretend I didnât say anything.â
