Chapter 45
For a long time, the office was quiet.
Only then did I hear Seth say, "If you do think so, I will respect your decision. But..." He paused and continued, "If you can't pretend anymore one day and you believe that I can survive from Patrick and protect you, remember to come back to my side."
His words made me extremely guilty.
I didn't remember how I had left his office that day.
But as soon as I returned to the villa, I took off all my clothes and got changed with my cheap dress.
This was who I was.
In the next month, I didn't know how I had made it.
I couldn't even find a reason to live on.
Seth would occasionally call me. If I didn't answer his call, he would text me.
I didn't get back to him either. Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
One day, I received a call from Angie.
As soon as I answered her phone, she scolded me.
Only then did I know that something had happened to Glorious Seth Design.
I had done as Patrick said. And I had resigned from Glorious Seth Design. I just stayed at home and wasted the time of my life away.
Even so, he was not satisfied. And he still made his move on Glorious Seth Design.
Someone maliciously publicized a scandal of Glorious Seth Design on the Internet, making Glorious Seth Design lose a lot of customers.
And now Glorious Seth Design was on the verge of collapsing.
I wasn't convinced by Angie's words.
But she asked me to take a look at Glorious Seth Design in person!
I went there to have a check. When I saw all the designers sitting in the office, I knew what Angie had said was true.
Everyone looked at me with hostility in their eyes.
Someone passed by and splashed a cup of coffee on me, who then apologized in a strange tone, "Oh, it's you, Mrs. Cowell. I didn't see you."
I didn't blame them.
Seth was not there. So I went to ask Angie, "Do you have any evidence to prove that it is Patrick who did it rather than other companies in the same field, who are trying to compete with us maliciously?"
Angie looked at me and sneered, "Mr. Hyde has all the evidence in his hand. He just doesn't want to confront Patrick Cowell. He's afraid that Patrick will hurt you. Because you're Mrs. Cowell!
Later, she drove me to a coffee shop.
I saw Seth bow unctuously and discuss business with his customers. And he was no longer as confident and energetic as he used to be.
I clenched my hands tightly.
I hated Patrick Cowell!
I hated him to the extreme!
I had done everything according to Patrick's instructions. But he still treated Seth like this!
After that day, I went back to the Glorious Seth Design.
I didn't know how much I could be of help to Seth. But I wanted to do my best to help him.
I suggested that everyone should deliver leaflets on the street. But no one wanted to make a move. So I did so on my own.
I had been handing the leaflets the whole day.
And I didn't even rest on weekends.
Finally, I got some orders related to the design of the houses once in a while. Everyone thought it was good and stood up to help deliver the leaflets one after another.
Glorious Seth Design finally showed signs of improvement.
About a month later, we got another order which was about the design of an independent clothing studio. The client was generous. And none of us dared to neglect this order.
Finally, the task was assigned to Angie.
Angie asked me to be her assistant. And I agreed readily.
After we visited the studio for the first time, I instantly understood why the client was so generous.
This studio was located in the central city where one inch of land equaled one inch of gold. If this place was furnished as a restaurant, a store, or even a cafe, the owner surely would make a lot of money. However, the client wanted to make it a clothing studio.
Admittedy, the rich could do whatever they wanted.
At that time, it was a man named Wilson Jacob who came to pay us and communicated with us.
However, after we arrived at the studio, Wilson suddenly said that he was helping his boss getting this order done and his boss would tell us the specific plan and ideas later.
