Chapter 1050: Chapter 1077

“Mommy, I understand.” Nina lowered her head as she grabbed the edge of her shirt. She had wanted the press conference to be successful too badly; she wanted to impress everyone. That was why she had ended up like this.

“Nina, go. Apologize to your daddy.”

The girl lifted her head to look at her father, but she froze.

“Go on now,” her mother urged.

“Can my press conference continue?” Nina asked.

The icy expression was still on Evan’s face. “How do you want to continue it?”

“I’ve taken a long time to prepare for this press conference. I want to end it well.”

“End it well?” the man gritted out. “How do you plan to end this well? Can you really guarantee that the consumers’ faces will change? Will the eyes turn bigger? Will a raisin become a grape again?”

Nina was at a loss for words.

Her father continued, “You don’t need to bother yourself with the press conference anymore. You can only mention having another press conference when you really come up with a product that can do the things you’ve claimed they can do.”

At that, Nina snapped her head upward with her jaw slacked.

I don’t think I can come up with something that can make eyes bigger and turn raisins into grapes. Does Daddy mean I’m not allowed to have press conferences in the future?

Nina’s path to her dream broke off. Her hope and passion were snuffed out like a flame of a candle after a powerful gust of wind; Evan’s words were a death sentence to her dream.

The girl stared at her father’s apathetic expression. She knew that the moment those words left her father’s lips, nothing she said would change her fate. She could no longer launch any new products from now on.

Like a struggling fish stuck on a hook, she hopelessly muttered, “Daddy, you really won’t launch my new product anymore?”

“That’s right. I will never launch your new product,” he declared.

Nina, with that promise of yours earlier, if you launch your new product, your integrity, as well as Seet Group’s credibility, would be crushed.

You still have a long way to go. This incident will taint the road you walk. It’ll be nothing but trouble for you in life.

I’d rather lose this batch of products than ruin your image and credibility.

Nina, please don’t be mad at Daddy. You’ll understand what I’m doing for you now in the future.

“Nina, apologize to Daddy. Mommy will go home with you then. We’ll talk about the press conference next time.” Nicole held Nina’s hands and gave her a meaningful look.

The woman knew that Evan was doing all this for their daughter.

As of that moment, all Nina could think of was her efforts going to waste if she could not launch her new product.

With an ashen face, she broke free from her mother’s hold and ran out of the president’s office.

“Nina. Nina!” Nicole ran after her.

Evan hurriedly instructed his subordinates to send Nicole and Nina home. He stayed back, planning to discuss how he should fix Nina’s situation with John and Davin.

When Nina reached home, she locked herself in her bedroom. No matter how many times Nicole called out to her, she refused to open the door.

“Nina, open the door. Nina, you still have more chances in the future. Daddy just doesn’t want to involve you in this mess and ruin your future. Don’t do anything silly!”

Nina stared at her table, where the ingredients and equipment for her skincare product research were. She had tried out each and every combination; she had spent so much effort to create this set of skincare products.

All that effort was now wasted.

Looking at the things on the table, Nina felt as if she was looking at her beloved pet’s corpse. Her tears fell.

Why did things turn out this way? All I wanted to was for them to sell. All I did was come up with a scripted act. Why did it all end up like this? Why can’t my products launch anymore?
