NovelEnglishChapter 128
Only Abby knew if she really was concerned about Pearl.
Pearl cast a cold glance at Abby before heading to her desk. Her desk, which had previously been
cluttered with stacks of work, was now empty. She furrowed her brows and asked a colleague sitting
nearby, “Where are my files?”
She worked really hard to get all those files, and many of the documents were only partially completed.
Why were they missing?
Her colleague looked at Pearl and explained, “Abby took them because you’ve been absent for a while.
She helped you finish all the work.”
Did Abby intend to take credit for work that Pearl had already completed? This infuriated Pearl. She

“What did you do?”
“Calm down. I finished all the work, but it’s for your own good. I’m sure you don’t want the company’s
work to be delayed because of your absence. Since I didn’t know when you’d return, I didn’t want to
risk delaying our progress. I didn’t think you’d want that responsibility.”
Pearl scoffed. “I know the project timeline and whether I’d cause any delays. There’s no need for you to
worry.”
“I’m doing this for the company. It’s one thing if you were absent, but we’re a team, and this agreement
requires teamwork. Are you truly fine with potentially causing delays for everyone else?”
The tension in the room escalated. Pearl realized that since her return, Abby had become cleverer with
her
words.
Pearl looked around. “If anyone here thinks I’ve caused any delays, please let me know. That way, I
won’t
need to ask each one of you.”
Abby’s face froze. “Anyway, there’s no need to be upset. Even though I finished the work, I submitted it
under your name, so there’s no reason to worry.”
Pearl looked at her suspiciously, as she doubted Abby’s intentions were entirely benevolent.
As expected, Pearl suddenly received a call from the investors, informing her that there were issues
with the design and the numbers didn’t add up. It was impossible to use the products.
Pearl froze because she knew this was coming.
“I’m glad I hadn’t started mass production and only created a sample. If I had initiated production right

“I’ll revise the design and send it to you by tonight.”
Pearl switched on her laptop, only to discover that her backup files were missing. Had Abby
orchestrated this as well? She clenched her teeth in frustration, but the urgent need to create a new
design left her with no time to dwell on Abby’s actions.
She revisited the project proposal, which called for the product to be both cold and seductive. The term
“cold
” immediately brought moonlight to her mind. But what about seduction?
As she sketched some lines on a piece of paper, an idea suddenly struck her. Her eyes widened.
A silver fox gracefully strolling beneath the moonlight, its alluring, foxy eyes casting a seductive spell.
She envisioned using blue gemstones for the fox’s eyes, with a small diamond embedded at the top.
The moonlight would be framed by silver thread clouds, imparting a sense of mystery.
She had it-the design concept: The Foxy Moon Seduction.
