All Chapters of Forbidden Love:Wed to my Ex's Uncle: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Upon hearing Joseph Archibald's indifferent tone, Hilary North felt as if he had approached the wrong person. After all, someone like Joseph Archibald, who was upright and gentle but always seemed to keep people at arm's length, would hardly be interested in gossip. How could such a man possibly care about rumors, especially when there were so many people at that high school? It was unlikely that Joseph Archibald would remember the name of just one woman.Hilary North could only laugh awkwardly, "No, it's just that I found it quite a coincidence. Just now, Brother Zhe asked me if I knew his wife from my time studying there. But I was there for such a short period; I didn't have the chance to get to know anyone else. The only person I can still recall is you. So, I thought I'd ask, do you know someone named Vivien Eipstein?"The name Vivien Eipstein was a taboo for Joseph Archibald, a deep-seated taboo. Everyone in the Lu family knew that mentioning Vivien Eipstein in front of Joseph

After hearing this, Hannah Eipstein frowned. "She didn't do anything but play mobile games?"The person nodded. "Yeah! She seemed to be having a good time."Hannah Eipstein felt that Vivien Eipstein wouldn't be the type to give up so easily; there must be something more to it. Thinking of this, she asked, "What kind of mobile game is she playing?"The person replied, "A happy bean mobile mahjong game."Hannah Eipstein: "Mobile mahjong?"The person nodded. "Yeah! Actually, I used to play it a lot too, but then I got busy with work and stopped."Hannah Eipstein asked, "Do you know how to download it?"The person nodded vigorously. "It's really simple, just an app. You can download it directly."After getting someone to download the app for her, Hannah Eipstein tried it out herself, but she found that she couldn't play at all. In the end, she gave up completely. This game had nothing to do with fashion design; it was just a way to kill time.Vivien Eipstein had long known that th

Vivien Eipstein was not a pushover; she had powerful backing. More importantly, her backer was one of the most significant figures in the entire Grantham Corporation, someone who couldn't be summoned or dismissed at will.Lennon Gallup was so furious he nearly stomped his feet. He ranted inwardly: If it weren't for your jealousy and driving that person away, there wouldn't have been a vacancy. The department already had two extra people, and the higher-ups wanted to make adjustments. You kicked her out, so it's only natural for you to take over her position. Besides, this is the Fashion Design Department, where we don't keep idle hands. If you don't do the secretary work, who will?Lennon Gallup took a deep breath, constantly reminding himself that this woman had strong backing and an ambiguous relationship with the president. He couldn't afford to offend her. Even if she were completely uneducated, a single word from her could cost him his position as the department head."Vivien E

"Based on what do you think your design could be better than Hannah Eipstein's? Hannah Eipstein is a top graduate from a prestigious fashion design school, whereas the gap between you and her makes it hard to believe that you could win against her."Herbert Grantham had shown some restraint, not directly stating that her knowledge was far inferior to Hannah Eipstein's.Vivien Eipstein sneered, her eyes full of mockery. "I thought you might be different, not judging people by their diplomas. A diploma is just a piece of paper. If I said I graduated from a foreign design university and even got a degree from there, would that make me a real overseas graduate?"Herbert Grantham looked at Vivien Eipstein, his gaze filled with deeper meaning. While others might have thought she was joking, he felt she was telling the truth. How could someone who knew nothing about fashion understand the trends just by reading a magazine?It was highly possible that she was hiding her true abilities."T

Xu Yan really wanted to argue, but at that moment, he couldn't come up with a single word in response.Seeing that she had achieved her goal, Vivien Eipstein smiled and said, "Then, Minister, we have it settled. Our meeting won't take too long; we can wrap it up within an hour. It won't take up much of everyone's time."Vivien Eipstein always preferred to get things done quickly and efficiently.She detested delays.Somehow, Xu Yan, as if guided by some unseen force, actually called the meeting. Even as he sat in the conference room, he found it hard to believe what was happening.But since the meeting was already in progress, they needed to get the content out.Originally, this meeting was about to be held anyway, to finalize some matters.Vivien Eipstein sat in the conference room, listening to others share their suggestions.After everyone in the team had finished presenting their ideas, Vivien Eipstein began to summarize.She compiled all the information, picked out the be
