Chapter 399

Anna’s words were sowed in Esther’s heart like a seed. She recalled Felix’s mention of the mysterious person in black, and a dark idea suddenly came to her mind.

“Anna, is the girl you saw really Pixie?” she asked.

Anna nodded. “Esther, haven’t you already seen the photo?”

Esther stood up and paced back and forth before Anna, seemingly indecisive.

Anna looked at her in puzzlement and asked, “Esther, what are you thinking?”

“Do you remember the organ trafficking ring I told you about before?”

Esther took a deep breath and sat across from Anna, her tone slightly anxious. “You mentioned that the family who adopted Pixie has a little girl with a heart condition, and it gave me a very absurd idea.

Could it be possible that they don’t want to let me take Pixie away because they’re intentionally keeping her as an organ storage?”

Esther’s idea coincided with the absurd thought Anna had just had.

Anna’s gaze flickered, and she hesitated before saying, “Esther, I had the same thought earlier. In our line of work, dealing with high-end fashion and wealthy clients, money is no obstacle to them. They can buy whatever they desire without a second thought.

“I once had a client with a rare blood type, and he always kept a man with the same blood type. around him. Whether for work or travel, he called him his assistant, but the man never did any assistant-related tasks.”

Esther instantly understood and looked at Anna with fear in her eyes. “The assistant’s purpose is for emergencies, isn’t it?” she asked, realizing the truth.

“Yes.”

Once the thought of her precious Pixie being exploited by wealthy and powerful people crossed Esther’s mind, panic overwhelmed her.

“Anna, regardless of whether Pixie is being used like that or not, I must take her away.”

Anna’s determined gaze met Esther’s as she responded, “Then we’ll sneak her away tonight.”

“Okay.”

Esther and Anna often shared similar ideas. Since the church refused to release Pixie and Anna now knew the adoptive family’s location, they had to take decisive action to bring Pixie back.

“Let’s focus on work for now. We’ll discuss this tonight.”

“Okay.”

Under Anna’s guidance, Esther swiftly immersed herself in her work as an emerging designer. There was always great admiration for the strong in the fashion industry, and Esther’s stunning designs amazed her colleagues. The other designers in the company became very interested in this new foreign talent.

Esther worked diligently to free up as much time as possible to see Pixie. The entire design team grew busy.

By evening, the sample workshop had already transformed the designs into semi-finished garments.

“Esther, look, this is your design,” Anna said.

With indescribable excitement, Esther gazed at the clothes on the mannequin, feeling as though her work had finally become a reality.

“Should we make some modifications here?” Esther asked.

Anna shook her head warmly. “I think there’s no need for that. If we change this part, the dress will lose its original liveliness and become more rigid. See this touch of orange-doesn’t it look like a flame?”
