The Heir's Secret Bride

Chapter 159

When Maeve reached the 21st floor, she saw Leah walking out of the office with a solemn expression and her

iPad in her hand. Upon seeing Maeve and Alex, Leah immediately walked forward. "Maeve, | was looking for you.

Mr. Brown, it's good that you're here too." "What's going on?" Alex asked.

"Finesse

Bloom updated a blog post on the official website today and showed the gown designs of Princess Elvira of

Erancia," Leah briefed. "It's exactly the sas Maeve's." Maeve's eyes widened in shock. "How is this

possible?"

Alex took the iPad from Leah. After he finished reading the contents, his frown deepened.

It wasn't just the same.

The design plan posted on the official website was Maeve's. Only sdetails had been changed.

Not only that, Finesse Bloom even issued a challenge to Eternal Hope on the official website.

They said that they wanted to use the Erancia's banquet to compete with Eternal Hope's designers.

One was the benchmark of the fashion industry, and the other was a new talent in the fashion industry. There

were countless people watching the battle between the two companies. Maeve recognized that the gown designs

on Finesse Bloom's official website were the ones that she had lost last night. She suddenly realized that those

racers were sent by Karen. But she couldn't figure out how Karen knew that she had the design with her.

"Mr. Brown, Ms. Mason, this is my mistake. Last night, | brought the gown designs back and wanted to make

smodifications. | didn't expect the bag to be s***ed and obtained by Finesse Bloom," Maeve explained

apologetically. Leah frowned. "No wonder. | was wondering how Finesse Bloom got these designs when we did

such a good job of keeping it

a secret." There were three gown designs.

"How far has your gown production progressed?" Alex pondered for a while and suggested to Maeve, "If you can

cup with a better idea, you might be able to convince Miss Fiora to agree to change the design. It's not too

late now." Maeve shook her head. "The first gown is almost done. Sgems have been embedded and sewn on

it. If they're removed, the gown will definitely be damaged. Besides, | don't want to give the designs to them just

like that."

She would never make way for a group of thieves, who used the design she had painstakingly drawn to

challenge Eternal Hope.

Maeve had finally seen how shameless Finesse Bloom was.

Leah disagreed

why don't you think about what will happen to you after Fiora and Elvira wear the sdress at the states

banquem? Your future will be ruined if there is a trecord on the designs, it can't be considered solid

evidence. If you insist on continuing to use the original designs,

Designers valued reputation the most.

If Maeve's reputation was ruined, no matter how outstanding her design skills were, she would be despised by

the fashion industry. No one would pay for her designs anymore.

Not to mention that Maeve might offend two royal nobles at once.

As long as she was not s****¥id, she should stop her losses now instead of benefiting her enemies in a fit of

anger.

Maeve understood Leah's concerns, but she still said, "Ms. Mason, it's their business that Finesse Bloom is used

to taking shortcuts. However, if we turn a deaf ear to such incidents every time, it's no different from telling

them that we're pushovers." She believed that retreating would only help the enemy's arrogance.

has already taken your designs and claimed that they're theirs. If you don't avoid them, are you going to fight

them head-on?" Leah asked. Yes. | can't take this lying down." Maeve's tone was firm.

Leah felt helpless. "You're really reckless! I've already analyzed it so clearly with you. You..."

"Just do as you think," Alex interrupted her gently. He stared at Maeve. "I'll bear the consequences."

Leah said, "Mr. Brown, she's being s***d. How can you do this with her?"

"| believe Maeve has her considerations." Alex's attitude did not change. "Finesse Bloom has already challenged

us like this. There's no reason for us to take it down lying." Leah was furious. "Alright, | won't i

| won't interfere in this matter anymore. It's up to you!"

With that, she left left angrily in her in her high heels.

Maeve felt greatly troubled. She turned to Alex and said, "Mr. Brown, thank you for trusting me. I'll go to the

stufirst."

Alex nodded. "Don't be too burdened. We'll cross that bridge when we cto it."

"I know that." Maeve forced a

smile.

Karen quickly got the news about the three of them arguing at the office door.

Her room was a mess of debris and crumpled paper.

After staying in that dark and terrifying basement for three days and three nights, Karen had becquite

neurotic and would smash things to vent.

Upon hearing this news, Karen finally smiled. The bridge of her nose, which had yet to fully recover, was slightly

twisted.

She said, "This b***h causedso much trouble just because she has Byron's support. Mom, | have to do

everything to ruin her reputation this time."

Apologize?

She wondered, "He wantsto admit my mistake? No, I'll never admit my mistake. | have to take a hard

revenge for the pain I've suffered these days before | stop.

Lydia's face darkened. "I underestimated how much she matters to Byron and acted rashly. This kind of company

battle is normal. He probably won't interfere."

"I know that." Karen's eyes lit up. "That's why | want to destroy Maeve. When she offends the Erancian royal

family and becomes notorious, | don't believe the Mcdaniel family will still let her in."

Lydia was a little worried. "Are you sure that Horace won't talk nonsense after receiving the money? He's

Maeve's younger

brother."

"I don't trust him," Karen said disdainfully. "When this matter is over, I'll send him to the police station. If | didn't

have something on him, | wouldn't have dared to ask him for help."

She had only planned to ask Horace to make things difficult for Maeve.

Karen did not expect to get the designs, which was a huge surprise for her.

Even the other departments had heard that the two of them were at loggerheads now.

They hoped that Maeve would make things worse and embarrass herself internationally.

In the increasingly anxious atmosphere in Eternal Hope, the agreed delivery date arrived.

Fiora sent sbodyguards over to retrieve the gowns.

The three gowns were placed in three black boxes. After one of the bodyguards checked them against the

designs, he said to Maeve in a businesslike manner, "Miss Fiora hates it when the goods are incorrect. If such a

situation happens, we will execute the right to refuse to pay the fees and hold you accountable."
