“Blanche.”
Silvia was taken aback, but she laughed soon after. “You have a good eye. However, I plan
to groom Blanche into a design director. Can you choose someone else?”
“No. She’s the only one I want. Besides, I’m not planning to make her my subordinate. I
just really like some of her designs, so I want to collaborate with her on next season’s
items.”
After hesitating for a few seconds, Silvia nodded and said, “Alright, but I can only let her
work. with you for a while. Once you’re done with the designs for the next season, she’ll
return to the Design Department.”
“Alright.”
“By the way, there’s a design exhibition tonight that’s showcasing the work of several
foreign designers. I was planning on bringing you and Blanche along. Are you free
tonight?”
Rita’s eyes lit up, and she immediately said, “Yes! I’ll make time even if I’m not free.”

directly from the company.”
They parted ways, and Silvia approached the elevator that was dedicated for the
management staff. As she was about to step in, she received a phone call from Neil.
“The test results for the chicken soup are out.”
Silvia stopped in her tracks as she whispered, “So, is there anything wrong with it?”
After a few seconds, Neil answered, “No, it’s normal.‘
She frowned in response. She trusted her taste buds, but the results had to be correct.
“Maybe there’s something wrong with my taste buds. I’ll try the soup again when I visit
Abalene.”
“Alright. I have a meeting soon. I’ll talk to you later.”
After the call ended, she sent him a text message. In it, she asked him to send her the test
report.
Soon, Neil sent her a picture.
She enlarged it and saw that the contents of the chicken soup were indeed normal. Was
there really something wrong with her taste buds?
Over at the lab in Imperial City, an examiner took out his cell phone and dialed a series of
numbers. “Mr. Remus, I’ve followed your instructions and manipulated the report. When
are you going to pay me?” he whispered.
“I’ll pay you by today. Don’t ever contact me again.”
Liam hung up immediately after.
He took out his SIM card and threw it into the bin. Then, he used another cell phone to
make a call.

“I’m about to send you an account number. I need your help to bank one million dollars
into this account.
Once that was done, he smiled coldly.
Neil and Silvia had no idea that he had a plant in Harmony Yard. He knew their every move
the moment they entered the place.
Soon, it was night time. Silvia drove Rita and Blanche to the design exhibition.

Silvia cocked an eyebrow in surprise and asked, “Mr. Remus, as I recall, your company’s
focusing on renewable energy. What brings you to this design exhibition?”
“There are a few fashion companies under Remus Corporation. Plus, the organizer of this
exhibition extended an invitation to us. Since I have nothing else going on tonight, I
thought that I could come over and have a look.”
Silvia nodded. “I brought my designers here for some exposure. We’ll see you inside.”
Just then, Neil nonchalantly said, “Ms. Pond, allow my secretary to bring them around.
There’s an issue with our previous agreement. Since I’ve bumped into you, why don’t we
discuss it?”
She secretly rolled her eyes. They had already signed the agreement. What issue could
there be? Rita and Blanche were aware of Silvia and Neil’s relationship. They smiled
knowingly and said, “Ms. Pond, you don’t have to worry about us. We can tour the place
on our own.”
After that, they went inside without waiting for Silvia’s response.
She was speechless.
Neil then grabbed her wrist and pulled her to the end of a quiet corridor. He lowered his
head and looked at her with delight.
