Julian’s Stand-In Wife

Chapter 424

Unfortunately, Diana didn’t have time to investigate the obvious foul play in this odd situation. Customer orders had been placed, and she had to ensure that the clothes were shipped out as scheduled to maintain the integrity of her business.

In recent days, Diana grew increasingly busy.

On one hand, she contacted the landlord to inquire if the rent could be reduced. On the other hand, she contacted her fabric supplier to find a substitute for the moldy fabric. Apart from that, she was also hard at work raising funds.

She didn’t want to ask Fanny for further help or let Oliver know about her problems; she wanted to avoid the increasing amount of favors she owed them.

However, it wasn’t easy to handle all three problems simultaneously.

“Miss Winnington,” the landlord said as he stood before her with raised brows. “If you can’t agree to the rent increase, I’m willing to compensate you the entire amount for the penalty of the breach of contract. You just need to move out in a week.”

“A week?!”

Diana had been working so hard to prepare for the opening, and she had even promoted her business using the same address. If she suddenly moved to another place, it would make her look like a joke to her current target customer group. More importantly, he was only giving her a week to move. It was ridiculous!
