Chapter 281 Pushing the Limits

"Cedric, be … more gentle …" Her face was flushed. Her hands were pinned behind her and at the moment, she relied solely on Cedric to support her weight. "Mom is in the room next door …" The sweat on her forehead dripped onto the table. Her eyes were dazed, but she remained alert. "Don't wake her."Cedric took in her porcelain-like skin, disheveled hair, and swollen red lips. Her appearance caused him to lose control of the beast within him and all he wanted was to lose himself in her. Some time later, he propped her up and lifted her chin. His forehead was drenched in sweat and the look in his eyes was both seductive and wild. "Why don't you lead, then?" he said and held her waist with his hands, pulling the chair nearby to sit down with Faye on top of him. She gasped and wrapped her arms around his neck with an alluring smile. "Getting tired already, Mr. Shaw?" Her hands trailed down and she raised an eyebrow. "That won't do …"He smiled when he saw the smirk playing on

Chapter 282 He Had Been Careless

Faye shot him a pointed look, her eyes boring into him. He maintained his innocent expression and presented the glass of honey water in his hands to her. "You were up all night. Drink this to soothe your throat. If this dress isn't appropriate, you can just change into a different one. There are a few new dresses you designed in the closet. Why don't you try those on instead?"Faye opened the closet and realized that Cedric purchased the gowns she designed a few months ago. Her gowns were usually sold out almost as soon as they were released, so she couldn't help but wonder where he found them. Cedric rubbed his nose. "They're from Lincoln …"Lincoln was an avid fan of Faye's, always purchasing her designs for his collection whenever she released a new one. Despite never having an official girlfriend, it didn't diminish his love for these garments.Cedric only found out about it by accident when he went to Lincoln's house to visit. When he learned that they were designed b

Chapter 283 A New Trend

Five minutes later, the designer and model for the second outfit arrived at Faye's side. Faye glanced at the tall and unfamiliar model. She was exceptionally beautiful and her figure perfectly complemented the necklace, so it was a shame."Jay, did you design this necklace?" Faye handed the necklace to the designer, who happened to be Jay. Jay nodded. "Yes, Ms. Fischer, but … Why does it look different …" He examined the necklace closely and paled. "This is a fake, Ms. Fischer. My design used different materials ..."Faye gave Jay an approving look. She hadn't informed them in advance that there was an issue with the necklace, yet Jay immediately identified it as a fake, which indicated that he was rather talented. "When did you last come here to check?" Faye asked. "I was here yesterday afternoon, and I can confirm that the real necklace was still here at that time," Jay said grimly.Faye nodded then turned to address the model. "The product launch is about to start, Ms.

Chapter 284 Not Bad

The fashion show had begun. Dozens of models took turns to walk the stage, showcasing not only their individual charm but, more importantly, Light Moon Designs' new products in their most beautiful state. Each of the new products was a masterpiece, enough to make heads turn even when worn by ordinary people, let alone models with outstanding figures and stunning looks. Light Moon Designs' new product launches were always a visual feast, creating waves globally each quarter.This launch was no exception, and due to the previous incident with Allure Designs, Light Moon Designs gained even more attention from the public. This quarter's new product launch was bound to be more explosive, with many people eagerly anticipating it. Faye met Iris at the backstage entrance. Iris smiled and nodded to Faye, "Ms. Fischer."Faye nodded back, offered a few words of encouragement, and returned to her seat in the front row. Surprisingly, Cedric was seated beside her in a seat that origina

Chapter 285 The More Angry He Became

Lincoln was furious that his performance was rated as "not bad". On top of that, Lucy even left a hundred dollars with the note. It was basically an insult to him!He was indeed drunk and slightly out of control the night before, but he was not intoxicated to the point that he would make an advance at Lucy. After lying down, all he wanted was to go to sleep. Lucy was the one who leaned closer to take off his clothes and touched him. She even tapped him on the face, saying, "You were all wild that night, right? Why are you lying down now?"She then proceeded to pinch his cheeks and grope his muscles, her actions getting out of hand. As a man, Lincoln couldn't possibly resist it, so he responded with the same enthusiasm. Lucy was instantly satisfied, yet she woke up the next day and decided to forget all about it. She brushed all his effort off with just a note and a hundred dollars. The more he thought about it, the more upset he became. He looked up at Georgina, who was

Chapter 286 I Will Leave It All to You, Mr. Shaw

Due to the additional rules of the auction, the competition for the auction was more intense than ever. The bidding for the first set was considerably more intense than usual, and the closing price was nearly twice as high. As soon as the bidding for the second set started, Astrid began shouting bids frantically. She didn't think highly of Light Moon Designs' outfits and believed that Allure Designs' products were the best. Still, she was excited to participate in the auction and was determined to win the second set at all costs to humiliate Faye. Astrid knew from the beginning that there was a problem with the necklace on the second set. She initially planned to expose Light Moon Designs during the auction. She would accuse them of producing counterfeit goods, making them just as horrible as Allure Designs. She would then demand a thorough investigation by the relevant authorities. Even if Light Moon Designs weren't found to have any issues with their products, the fact

Chapter 287 He Was Not So Devoted to Her After All

Without hesitation, Cedric joined Astrid in bidding. They pushed the price of a gown worth several million up to a staggering one billion. However, when Astrid called out one billion and one million, Cedric stopped bidding.Astrid knew that Cedric was bidding against her to help Faye. Moreover, the fake necklace was planted by Astrid. Initially, she had been concerned that Faye would discover the problem and have the necklace swapped out before the show. However, the fact that Cedric continued to bid against her confirmed that the necklace on the second outfit was indeed fake. Though Light Moon Designs explained in advance that there was an issue and intended to resolve it by giving the whole outfit for free, once Astrid had the set in her hands, things would be out of Light Moon Designs' control. Even if Astrid didn't win the second set and chose another one, she had ways to manipulate it into a problematic product. The only difference was that she would have to spend mon

Chapter 288 Counter Attack

Frankly, Faye didn't anticipate the third outfit to be sold at such a low price and concluded that it was because the second outfit was sold at an insanely high price. Though Faye didn't design the third outfit, it was brilliant and qualified to be shown on stage. Though 1.5 million wasn't a low price, it seemed to pale in comparison to the other outfits. Since one of the accessories was found problematic, Faye had anticipated that others would have doubts. Naturally, she said everything she said because she had already made arrangements to handle this crisis. She clapped her hands to silence everyone with a smile. "I understand that you all have questions, but please calm down. "Light Moon Designs did not plan and arrange for this necklace to be problematic."Everyone was stunned by her words, wondering who would have planned this if it weren't Light Moon Designs. "To ensure that today's auction is just and fair, we've invited internationally renowned experts here. Let's

Chapter 289 I Will Make You Admit Defeat

Faye's smile deepened. "Is this the lady who bid for the second set? Do you think the issue with our third set isn't accurately pointed out, or do you believe the problem lies with the second set?" As Faye's words fell, the surrounding discussions immediately shifted.Those who had expressed doubt and initially sided with Astrid now looked at Astrid in confusion, frowning. They found Faye's explanation to be convincing. After all, no one would spend over a billion for a set of clothes at an auction. Although the clothing designed by Light Moon Designs' chief designer was indeed excellent, it would be unreasonable to be so insistent unless they were sure the outfit was flawed.On top of that, Astrid's hysterical tone was suspicious as well."Don't try to paint me as the bad guy. I'm just discussing the matter at hand," Astrid replied calmly with a sharp tone. Faye chuckled. "I remember the one who won the bid for the third set is Mr. Liberton, a well-known figure in the domesti

Chapter 290 Sent Her Flying With a Kick

Astrid didn't expect the appraiser she brought in from Allure Designs to claim that the second set had no issues. When she contacted them to come, she had specifically instructed them to insist that the second set had problems, and Astrid would take responsibility for all consequences should anything go wrong. However, as the appraiser confidently declared that all items on stage were authentic, Astrid was close to a mental breakdown."No, this can't be! Did Faye manage to buy off my staff, too?" she thought. The last hope rested on the person brought in by Nick. Nick had put everything on the line and called a professor who taught gemology at Jeorgia University. This professor had once received favors from Nick's father and worked for the Lynch family for years. Though Benny was currently under investigation, the righteous professor didn't abandon the Lynch family and was still trying to lighten the potential legal consequences for the family. When the professor, Mr. Hack
