Monica realized that she was asking for too much.She let go of Henry's hands and uttered in disappointment, "Just try to convince him. I don't want Joey to suffer after she reunites with the Fulhams."Henry looked at her for a while before asking, "I can tell you don't like Ms. Lane. Did she have anything to do with Joey's disappearance from the Fulham family?"Monica looked left and right. Once she made sure that there was no one around, she whispered, "It might not have anything to do with Emily, but Shirley definitely had something to do with it."In fact, I think the entire Fulham family has something to do with Joey's disappearance.""Right," Henry agreed. "But do you know how Ms. Linton went missing back then?"Monica fell silent.Instead of prying further, Henry consoled Monica, "It's okay if you don't want to talk about it. Let's look around the area.""Joey did not go missing. She was thrown into the sea. She hit her head and still can't recall her biological parents

Joey experienced firsthand the difficulty of earning a place in Imperia.Their saboteurs had been making her life more difficult. The attack only calmed down a bit shortly before she left for Firelle.And now, the Fulhams had come to bother her again.No matter how excellent Emmen strived to be, it would struggle to gain footing without connections."Selena, should we work with someone more influential?" Joey turned to Selena."Those people only want to acquire us. They are not helping us out of good faith," answered Selena.As Emmen became increasingly popular, many tried to invest in the brand. They promised an enticing sum. Similarly, they made a lot of demands. Most of them were traps.Had they not proceeded cautiously, Emmen would have fallen into somebody else's hands already. They would be toiling to fatten someone else's wallet.Joey let out a sigh."We're all alone in Imperia, aren't we?" asked Joey."Yes. Our priority enemy is Yvonne, and she asked the Fulhams to do

Joey was watching a TV show when her nose suddenly felt itchy. A loud sneeze followed.She rubbed her nose and grumbled, "The heater is on. Why does it feel like I'm catching a cold?"She wondered how the meeting went between Selena and Pixie. Even though she was watching a TV show, her mind was elsewhere.As she watched the show idly, her phone suddenly rang. Joey looked down. The number on the screen felt familiar but she couldn't recall who it belonged to.She decided to pick it up.As soon as she did that, Emily's voice sounded from the other end. "Ms. Linton, are you free for coffee?"No wonder the number looked familiar. She had blocked the caller but later thought that it was unnecessary, so she unblocked it."Just spill it here. I don't want to go out when it's so cold," declined Joey."If you don't want Emmen and Pixie's partnership to fall apart, you'll do well to design Yvonne a dress. It doesn't have to be flashy, just something that suits her," Emily threatened.J

Harrison was overwhelmed with work as Pixie was probed for taxation problems.Joey overheard several arguments between Selena and him. As an opinionated woman, Selena wanted Harrison to handle the situation as quickly as possible.However, Pixie's board members were putting pressure on Harrison. They wanted to kick Selena out of the board and terminate the partnership with Emmen. Therefore, an argument broke out."Did Harrison just say we were why Pixie was in this dire situation? It's not my fault that Pixie's taxation is a mess," Selena complained to Joey after she hung up.Joey patted her on the shoulder and consoled, "Calm down now. No need to quarrel with him.""You think I want to quarrel with him? I was stupid enough to date him. I shouldn't have worked with Pixie. He and I are now in limbo. What a mess." Selena sat on the couch and heaved.Joey soothed her friend. "We can give up on Pixie if nothing works out."But Selena was reluctant. "We've invested in them. Plus, we'

Cyrus glared daggers at Lawrence.Lawrence continued to smile in an irreverent way. "The only good thing about me is my honesty. Don't you agree, Ms. Linton?""I thank you for your honesty. Please tell Zachary I don't need his help, and ask him to keep the promise he gave me," Joey said politely before walking toward Selena's car.Looking at the shocked and confused expression on Lawrence's face, Cyrus sighed."I told you not to come, but you wouldn't listen, thinking it wasn't a big deal. Ms. Linton and Mr. Gray have already cut ties.""But even if you don't tell her, Ms. Linton will figure out everything herself. So, why lie to her? You'll only annoy her," said Lawrence sincerely.Joey entered Selena's car and put on some music as she waited for her to return.…Selena followed Harrison to his office. As he poured her a glass of water, she cut to the chase, saying, "I'm not thirsty. Just say your piece."Harrison placed the glass of water on the countertop and turned to Sele
