Chapter 4

Her arrogance was a good match to Henry’s.

I finally understood that I was dealing with two perfect idiots that were made for each other.

“Ms. Reid, right?” I sneered. “Your mother, Jane, was not talking to me like this when she begged me to work for her brand, back then.”

I hadn’t tried to make things worse, but my words simply enraged Sammy.

“Who the hell are you?! How dare you talk about my mother?”

I answered coldly, “Not only do I know your mother, but your mother also calls me ‘mister’ when she sees me in person.”

Sammy became extremely furious. She raised her hand to initiate a humiliating slap.

“You piece of trash! How dare you scold me?!”

However, Sammy’s hand was grabbed before it could reach my face.

Lily was the one who had stopped her. She had finally made it to the show, and she was looking extremely furious.

“Sammy! You’re being unreasonable!”

As young as Lily was, she was still a very important figure in the industry. When she showed up, everyone frozen in shock.

Sammy flung her hand away and still looked angry.

“What are you doing, Ms. Smith?! Why are you making an enemy out of us over a nobody?”

“He’s not a nobody!” Lily stomped her foot in anger. “He’s an extremely important figure in our industry!”

“Ha ha ha!” Sammy started laughing. “Important? In this industry, no one is more important than the Reid family!”

She turned around to throw me a taunting look.

“I don’t care what relationship you and Lily have. You’re either begging for Henry’s forgiveness today, or I make sure you disappear from the fashion world! You’ll face the consequences of offending the Reid family!” She kept on threatening while pointing a finger at my nose.

“How dare you, Sammy!” Lily almost passed out from anger.

I supported her back up and patted her back to calm her down before calmly meeting Sammy’s eyes. “You’re asking me to beg for forgiveness?” I then laughed. “You for sure do not know me, Ms. Reid. In this life, I have only ever gotten on my knees before my parents’ graves. As for making me disappear from this industry…”

I paused and took out my phone to send a voice message in front of everyone. “Hey Arnold, I’m at the Innovating Design Competition, and I’m in a little bit of a pickle right now. A small company called Reid Corporation is threatening to make me disappear from this industry. Isn’t that funny?”

A dead silence settled over the crowd once I was done sending that note. Every person who knew of the name I spoke of became pale-faced and started sweating.

Arnold was the equivalent of a fashion god.

Even though Sammy was a brat, she was not naive. She had obviously heard of this name before, and her expression changed too.

“Who are you trying to scare? Who do you think you are for Mr. Arnold to even pay attention to you?”

She had just finished her sentence when I received a reply. It was also a voice note and I wasted no time playing it.

“No one on this earth can try to make you disappear. Tell me, how exactly do you want to get rid of the Reid Corporation?”
