After Joey posted about Cool Apparel, Cool Apparel reposted her update after seeing her fans expressing their sympathy.They even added an insincere caption, saying, "I never expected your company's employees to be so malicious."Our company was too hasty and misunderstood you. We're truly sorry and feel bad for Ms. Chloe."Following Cool Apparel's post, Zachary also reposted it."Chloe called all the collaborating companies to explain the situation. Cool Apparel was the only company that immediately made a post accusing Chloe of plagiarism after getting the call."Did they think Chloe didn't have evidence to clarify the situation? Is that why they took advantage of the situation to gain sympathy and attention?"As soon as he posted that, Joey's fans shifted their focus to criticize Cool Apparel."They've explained through phone calls. All the collaborating brands, even Leisure Fashion, who was accused of plagiarism during a livestream last night, didn't post anything to bash Ch

The fanfiction remained a trending topic for a few days, catching Joey off guard. What was even more crucial was that Zachary had also liked the fanfiction. That made it seem like a reply to the fans."Why did he do that? Is he purposely creating rumors for us?" Joey complained discontentedly to Selena while sitting in the bar.Selena swirled the drink in her glass and said, "You'll never be able to explain yourself now."Joey didn't even dare to retract her like on that fanfiction.It had already been four days since that incident. Joey didn't dare to go online at all. Instead, she had been secretly using Selena's account to check on the situation."What a coincidence!" Suddenly, a familiar voice interrupted them.Joey and Selena turned around simultaneously, seeing Samuel in a royal blue suit standing behind them. Judging by his hairstyle, he seemed to have put a lot of thought into his appearance."Mr. Zimmerman, are you here to have a drink with friends?" Selena asked firs

Zachary looked at her, a faint smile playing on his lips. Joey felt uncomfortable under his gaze, and her brows furrowed even more."Is there anything else?""If you don't tell me, I'll deal with her." Although Zachary's gaze seemed indifferent, he was still exuding hostility."Melvin is her cousin. If you do anything to her, I won't be able to work with Melvin anymore. I might as well just bring his pearls back to him and apologize directly," Joey replied unkindly.Zachary pondered for a moment. "Is she seeing Samuel now?"Joey had to admit that Zachary was quite sharp."I don't know, but what does it have to do with me?" Joey replied indifferently."You may think it doesn't matter, but she sees you as a threat. What does Samuel mean to you, exactly?" Zachary asked calmly.He never expected that one day, he would have such a calm conversation with Joey about another man who had feelings for her."Zachary, we're not close enough for me to discuss these matters, right?" Joey

Linda paused for a moment and said, "You're Joey's grandmother, aren't you? You have no idea that she's—""Dear, when you talk, you've got to have some evidence to back it up. Using that kind of language, is that how you were brought up?" Monica interrupted."Well, it's still better than raising a granddaughter who's a manipulative flirt, like yours," Linda retorted before hanging up abruptly.Monica, feeling agitated, was about to make a call back when she heard Joey's voice coming from behind."Pass me the phone, Grandma. Don't worry. It's just a misunderstanding.""Is someone from your rival company giving you a hard time?" Monica turned around and handed the phone to Joey.Joey shook her head. "I have no idea."After a rather unpleasant dinner, Joey returned to her room and decided to call Linda. Linda picked up the call right away."What's this, stepping in to scold me on behalf of your grandma?" Linda's voice was tinged with arrogance."I'll bring the messages you sent s

Joey wasn't really expecting any immediate outcomes that day.After all, she understood the importance of maintaining a relationship and keeping the possibility of future encounters open by avoiding drastic actions or decisions.She raised the teacup, inhaling the fragrant notes of the Golden Crescent Tea. Minville's teacups were petite but exquisitely crafted."Golden Crescent Tea, it's perfect for a summer day," Joey remarked to Jeremy after a sip.Jeremy was utterly surprised that she could accurately identify the tea.Golden Crescent Tea wasn't widely recognized, but it had a distinct reputation in Minville. Beyond Minville, it remained relatively unfamiliar to most."Ms. Linton, do you know a lot about tea?" Jeremy asked with a smile.She wasn't exactly a tea expert, but her familiarity with this tea was thanks to Hanson's coffee shop. He was quite knowledgeable about tea and had shared a good deal about tea culture with her."I have a friend who really enjoys tea and has
