Chapter 309 The Cat Is Out of the Bag

Less than a week passed when Josh called Abigail. He had wanted to meet her in person, but she had declined.

“I’ll transfer the money to your account. It was done by the housemaid, who was bought off by my Uncle Vincent. She deliberately sent you those figures to disgust you. But Kelly genuinely wanted to order a dress from you. She called you after she heard from the maid that I’ve paid for her. She might not be good with words and may have unintentionally offended you, but she was not doing it on purpose.”

After he explained everything, she didn’t respond.

When he was met with her silence, he continued, “Kelly just returned, and my Uncle Vincent is still unwilling to accept her due to the marriage between the Pearsons and the Davidsons. He always believed that if Kelly didn’t return, his daughter could marry into the Davidson Family. That’s why he did so much behind the scenes. It’s indeed the Pearsons’ fault and also my fault. I shouldn’t have solely relied on my instincts by coming to you and creating so much trouble for Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

you.”

Frankly, she didn’t know what to say. She always held a skeptical attitude toward Kelly and believed that Vincent paying such a price to deal with her might not be worth it.

“Don’t worry. Once the marriage between Eric and the Pearsons is settled, no one will bother anymore,” Josh continued.

“Okay,” she replied briefly, then hung up the phone.

you

Even though she had doubts regarding what the Pearsons and Kelly had been doing during this period, she didn’t feel it was appropriate to interject as an outsider.

In the blink of an eye, half of August had already passed.

Early in the morning. Abigail’s phone was ringing off the hook. It was a call from a clothing brand.

partner.

As soon as she answered the call, the director from Lyshe began shouting, “Alana, if you can’t deliver what you promised, just let us know in advance! Our company has been cooperating with L.Moon for over a year. What’s with the plagiarism? Do you know how important it was for us yesterday? If you can’t design, you shouldn’t be in this field! Why are you out here causing harm?”

Last night, Lyshe held a winter product launch event, and she even attended the livestream. Little did she know that something like this would happen overnight.

The first thing that came to her mind was the incident of Micah stealing her designs. Okay, it’s time to fight.

Abigail inhaled deeply before saying apologetically, “I’m sorry, our studio’s design was stolen. It was an oversight on L.Moon’s part. Give me three days, and I’ll provide you with a new set of designs. Just three days. I promise, not only will I give you new designs, but I’ll also bring some extra publicity to your studio.”

“At this point, everyone is holding product launches. The faster you are, the more benefits you. reap. Do you realize how much harm you’ve caused? Collaborating with you is nothing but bad. luck!” The director of Lyshe continued to vent his anger.

“I didn’t notify you in advance because the incident had already occurred. I also thought it would be better to create some buzz together and turn it into a win-win situation,” Abigail patiently explained.

“Your explanation won’t persuade my bosses. You didn’t inform us of this incident in advance and are only telling me now that this is all part of your grand plan. Is this how you work with your partners?” Lyshe’s director’s fury slowly subsided, but he still had some criticisms to make.

After all, he had already reprimanded their partner, putting himself in a vulnerable position. If he didn’t put the blame entirely on L.Moon, and if Abigail managed to turn things around, Lyshe might face a disadvantage in their contract renewal with L.Moon.

“I’m truly sorry,” Abigail apologized yet again.

The director of Lyshe was clearly still displeased as he muttered a few more words before. hanging up the phone.

Once Abigail arrived at the company, she started calling each of their partners one by one. By the time she was done, it had already been two hours since the situation erupted like a volcano.

Alas, she still couldn’t stop some partners from posting on Instagram, accusing her of plagiarism. After all, Alana was the hottest topic. Regardless of any misunderstandings behind the scenes, accusing her of plagiarism would generate more traffic.

The moment she hung up the phone, Sean called.

At this point, she was so done that she was currently slumped in her chair as she pressed the answer button. “What is it?”

Sean noticed that her voice was a bit hoarse and asked, “Did you catch a cold? What happened to your voice?”

“Your call can’t be just about that, right?” She just wanted to end the conversation as her throat was already starting to burn.

“CoolVogue has posted an article on Instagram accusing you of plagiarism and even provided. evidence. The buzz is gradually building up. Do you want to address this?” he asked. Truthfully, he had been waiting for her to respond ever since he saw CoolVogue’s Instagram post.

Two hours had passed, but L.Moon had yet to make a move. Public relations were best handled within two hours, and he believed that she should be aware of this. Yet, L.Moon hadn’t done anything. So, he was worried that something might have happened to Abigail.

“I can’t handle that for now. I called the company and explained the situation, but they still insisted on accusing me of plagiarism. There’s nothing I can do about it,” she replied calmly.

She didn’t have the time to deal with this online issue right now. She had dozens upon dozens of brand design drafts that needed revisions. Honestly, she simply didn’t have the energy to pay attention to what was being said online.

“Let me talk to CoolVogue,” he suddenly proposed.
