When Christina woke up, she found herself lying on the bed in the bedroom of Scenic Garden Manor.

Feeling much better after a good night’s sleep, she changed into a new set of clothes and went out.

Meanwhile, a well-dressed young lady was trying out clothes at the store in the shopping mall. After finding out the size that fitted her, she said to the salesperson. “I’m buying everything I tried just now.”

The salesperson said with an apologetic look. “All of our ready stock was sold out yesterday. The clothes here are only for fitting.”

The young lady became displeased. “So I can’t buy anything?”

“Of course not. We accept reservations. You can pay a deposit and pick them up in three days,” explained the salesperson.

Everyone thought that the store would be closed down today since there was no more ready stock last night. Luckily. Ms. Steele came up with this idea to save us the embarrassment of having an empty store.

The young lady was satisfied with the clothes she tried on earlier, so she thought about it for a while and agreed. “You should’ve stocked up if your business is good.”

“We will report this issue to our superiors.”

The young lady left after paying the deposit and leaving her information.

The salesperson looked at the large number of orders and mumbled with mixed feelings, “Fortunately, we didn’t clear all the stock. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have received so many orders if customers couldn’t try on the clothes.”

The first thing Christina did every day after she left home was go to the factory to check on the progress. She could only be at ease after making sure that there was no problem with the quality of the clothes.

After leaving the factory, she had a more important thing to do, which was to find Yerek

Ten minutes later, she got out of the car that had stopped outside the branch office of Gibson Corporation. Taking the elevator, she headed straight to the floor where the CEO’s office was located.

While she was thinking about whether to call ahead first, she heard a man’s voice coming from the conference room beside her.

“Mr. Gibson, this matter has been exposed, so you have to help me. Mr. Hadley has acquired the factory. They’ll certainly take legal action against me next!”

The man’s hoarse voice sounded familiar to Christina.

She cautiously approached the conference room and saw through the crack of the door that the man. inside was the clothing factory manager.
