Neil remained silent for a few seconds and whispered, âWhy? Are you really clueless or are you pretending not to know?â
Silviaâs heart skipped a beat all of a sudden. After she snapped out of her daze, she sternly said, âMr. Remus, donât forget our promise today!â
It seemed to be a reminder to Neil and a warning to herself.
He chuckled. âI havenât forgotten, so I wonât press you for an answer.â
âIâm going to rest. Goodbye,â she said.
Right before she hung up, she seemed to hear a soft âgood nightâ from her phone.
Silvia took a deep breath to calm down.
The next morning, Ada posted on Twitter.
[Thank you for your concern, everyone. Thereâs no dark secret or conspiracy. It was an accident, and I didnât expect it to be framed as an attempted suicide. I hope that you wonât believe it or spread the rumor. Besides, Iâll still be participating in the design competition because winning it is my dream. Unless I canât draw, I wonât give up!]
Ada used to win a lot of awards abroad. International brands incorporated some of her designs as well, so she had already built up a number of fans.
In addition, the current design competition was extremely popular. So, right after she posted her tweet, ten thousand comments filled her page in less than five minutes.
[Adaâs the most hardworking person Iâve ever seen. When she was abroad, she had a fever that measured 39 degrees celsius once. Despite that, she continued to draw her designs. If she hadnât fainted at the event, no one would have known that she was sick!]
[Yeah. I heard that Adaâs family is running a business. Even if she doesnât work and just fools around her whole life, sheâll still be well off. But Ada chooses to work hard to pursue her dream. Ada, youâre my role model!]
[I only discovered this lady recently, but Iâve seen her designs in the past two competitions. Theyâve really caught my eye. I hope she wins!]
Ada smiled when she read the compliments online, and her mood improved.
Once she won the design competition and received Perficient from Neil, she would have time to slowly deal with Silvia!
Silvia saw her tweet as well and realized that Ada was quite skilled at building up her own image. However, the bigger they are, the harder they fall.
Mr. Remus, Your Billionaire Wife Wants a Divorce If Ada continued to be a b*tch, her day of reckoning would not be far.
Just as Silvia was about to put her phone away, she received a call from Dulcie.
âThereâs a problem with MY Corporationâs new fall products. To save up on fabrics, Uncle Sigwald used materials from the fabric supplier that offered the lowest price. As a result, many consumers whoâve purchased the new products have had problems with fading, allergies, pilling, and etc. Theyâve gathered downstairs and theyâre creating a fuss now!â
When Silvia heard this, her expression instantly turned cold. âWhereâs Sigwald? Since he caused this, ask him to go downstairs and placate the consumers!â
She initially thought there would not be a problem as long as she did not use the suppliers that he recommended. Unexpectedly, he still set her up!
âI donât know. He didnât come in to work today, and heâs not answering my calls either.â
âSend someone to his house right now!â
Half an hour later, Dulcie called her. âSilvia, Iâve sent someone over. Uncle Sigwald is sick and in the hospital.â
Silvia sneered. What a coincidence! Did he fall sick just as something happened to the new fall products?
âOkay, I understand. Send some people to deal with the consumers. Provide a full refund to those who experienced fading and pilling with their clothes. If theyâve had an allergic reaction, cover their medical fees on top of the full refund. Do a full recall of all the new fall products!â
âWith how things are, MY Corporation will go bankrupt if we do that.â
âJust do as I say first. Iâll think of a way to solve our financial situation.â
After the call ended, Silvia called the Finance Department. After she asked about the gap in funding, the staff from the Finance Department said, âMiss Pond, I wonder if I should tell you this...â
âWhat is it?â
âMY Corporation is a black hole. You can continue to put money in it, but once something happens, the company will be on the verge of collapse.
Applying for bankruptcy is the best solution.â
