Chapter 391
The Spare Wife by Nadia Gordon
Chapter 391 The Best Sisterly Bond Luna stood at the staircase, dialing the number of the CEO of the brand she had been working with for almost two years. Then, she leaned against the handrail and gazed down at the descending steps.
As the call connected, Luna instinctively curled her lips into a smile as she spoke, âMr. Watt, I got the call you made to our assistant. I just wanted to clarify some things. Is it true that youâve decided to side with Tristan?â
Erik chuckled. âMiss Smith, weâve been collaborating for two years. Iâve supported you through your ups and downs. I understand how hard it is for you and your friend to start this business. Iâm willing to promote you and provide more opportunities. However, Mr. Stuartâs father-in-law and I have been good friends for many years. I have to do him this favor.â
Disdain flashed across Lunaâs face, her tone turning colder. âAlana has contributed countless designs and generated substantial profits for your company. Now, you want her and her best friend to forgive the culprit after her hand is injured? Is this really how the world works?â
âIâm sure we can come to an agreement about what to say on Instagram, and it will blow over soon enough. If Alana feels wronged, Iâll talk to Mr. Stuart and ask him to apologize. Would that work?â Erik maintained his friendly tone..
Luna suddenly raised her voice as she retorted, âApologize? Her hand is injured, and you think an apology will make up for it?
Tristan deliberately hurt her! Even if sheâs willing to apologize, I will never allow her to even breathe a word. What kind of person is Tristan? Does he even deserve an apology from Alana? Heâs not just been bullying Alana on set once; itâs every day! Erik, if you want to terminate the partnership, then do it. But be sure to have the breach of contract fee ready because L.Moon will never work with your company again! L.Moon only collaborates with conscientious enterprises. The heartless ones can go as far away as possible!â
Erik was taken aback by her barrage of scolding. He was so angry his breath shuddered as he rebuked, âYou donât know whatâs good for you!â
After that, he abruptly ended the call.
The termination contract was sent to the companyâs inbox in mere minutes.
Luna immediately informed L.Moonâs PR department about this matter.
âWrite a PR article; the more sensational, the better. SG Brand is terminating the contract? Fine, let the netizens roast this brand!â
L.Moon was no longer the struggling studio it used to be. Today, they were going to highlight case to teach these brands that abandon their commitments a lesson. This would serve as an example to others considering terminating contracts. That way, these ruthless businessmen. would think twice before crossing paths with L.Moon.
a 1/3 Nonetheless, she did her best to restrain her anger as she headed to Abigailâs ward.
Josh stood on the staircase landing, watching her leave before slowly trailing behind her.
He didnât know Luna very well, but her words today left a deep impression on him.
Once Luna had been in Abigailâs room for a short while, Josh finally knocked on the door.
After a couple of knocks, he pushed open the door and entered the room. âI hope Iâm not interrupting anything.â
When Luna noticed that the visitor was Josh, she didnât bother putting up a friendly pretense as she said. âYou sure are well-
informed, Mr. Pearson.â
Josh looked at her, her cool, short blue hair with silver streaks making her look quite edgy. The bold style suited her features very well, and her wild eyebrows made her eyes appear deep and captivating.
âJust checking in,â Josh replied.
Luna didnât bother changing any pleasantries with him.
Abigail turned to Josh and said, âMr. Pearson, thereâs really no need for you to come personally.â
âIf thereâs anything wrong with your hand, please seek specialized treatment. Your right hand is too important,â Josh advised..
âItâs fine,â Abigail replied nonchalantly.
âIâm also keeping tabs on Tristanâs case. If you face any difficulties, feel free to let me know,â Josh. said, his tone still gentle.
âI donât have any difficulties. The show Iâve recently taken on is new, and Iâd rather take on a lousy program like this than do designs for your sister. So, you neednât worry about me,â Abigail retorted, showing no warmth.
Josh didnât take offense at being misunderstood. Instead, he just smiled. âSometimes, you can be quite childish. Since you donât have a good opinion of me, I wonât overstay my welcome. Let me know if you need anythingâ
He stood up to leave. Yet, before he stepped foot outside the ward, his gaze couldnât help but shift toward Luna.
Luna immediately noticed and demanded, âWhatâs up?â
âNothing,â Josh replied, retracting his gaze before finally leaving.
Luna furrowed her brows. âHow strange.â
2/3 Abigail couldnât help but chuckle. âEric will be here later. Letâs have dinner together.â
âNo problem!â Lunaâs mood immediately brightened as she beamed at Abigail.
That evening, L.Moon Studio posted a blog about terminating the partnership with SG. Then, they didnât hesitate to stir the pot by hinting to their fans that it was SG who initiated the termination. Regardless, they also ended on a good note, saying that they anticipate future collaborations with other companies.
Alanaâs fans couldnât sit still after hearing such news. So, they rushed to SGâs Instagram, unleashing a torrent of scathing comments.
âWhatâs going on? Alanaâs hand got hurt, and SG immediately terminated the collaboration out of fear that she couldnât create more designs? Seriously, SG, a brand with barely any recognition, shot to fame all thanks to Alanaâs dazzling designs. Now, theyâre turning their back on her just like that?â
âSG, listen up. I bought clothes from your brand because of Alana. No one would ever buy anything you make if it werenât for the fact that she has designed some good work for you. How dare you charge thousands for a piece of clothing with your so-so designs and workmanship?! I wonât stop spamming until you apologize!â
A brand without gratitude deserves to go bankrupt. Besides, who would pay thousands for your brand with designs and craftsmanship like yours? Weâre all here for Alana, not your so-called âfashion. Seriously, talk about overestimating your worth!â
