Chapter 622
"Hello, who's on the phone?" Victoria asked.
The call was from a strange number and she spoke in a polite tone. As soon as she heard that it was the assistant of an artist she had worked with, her lips curled into a smile.
"Oh, Lianna, of course I remember. She wanted the pink Mori dress! That..."
Victoria spoke after a brief moment of hesitation.
"Miss Clark, it's not that I don't respect Lianna. As you know, in order to prevent outfit clashes, my dresses are all unique. The pink one had been ordered by Miss Hawk while I have another set of a lake blue dress which is of the same design. Since we're short of several accessories, it hasn't been finished. Therefore, I haven't put it on showcase yet. This color will be a hit in spring next year. If you like it, I'll send some pictures of it to you tomorrow. What do you think?"
"Well, our design elements should be kept secret. Before they're on sale, it's a taboo for the photos to be leaked to the public. Lianna has a good figure so there isn't any issue for her to wear it. Moreover, there is a two-way lacing style. As such, the waist doesn't need to be amended," she said. "Of course, it's much better than pink. It gives a calm and elegant vibe," she added.
As she tried her best to promote it, all sorts of good words came out from her mouth. "The price will be slightly more expensive as it's embellished with Swarovski crystals."
"Okay! Lianna will be in the first production unit, film and television building. I got it. Alright, I'll be there tomorrow," Victoria confirmed.
As she was busy promoting, she was jotting down the details on her memo pad. She couldn't contain her excitement as she could soon obtain a hundred thousand dollars.
She felt lucky.
On the other hand, Trevor's hand unconsciously fell on the mobile phone after finishing his business. He repeatedly made several calls but he still got the same response. His heart sank after smashing the button to hang-up.
How could it be so difficult just to listen to her voice?
As for the following days, Trevor's company had come to the busy period in relation to New Year's Eve's preparations. He was often busy until midnight. Whenever he got to rest, his mind would inevitably be distracted by the thought of Victoria's face.
One day, after a meeting, he was so busy that he was enraged for the first time in his life. "A bunch of good- for- nothings! How did they get into a lawsuit with just a few scripts! What's the point of raising them?" He exclaimed angrily.
Hogler could sense his odd emotions upon making a cup of tea for him.
"Trevor, calm down. It's not a bad thing to spend a few millions dollars for a lesson. In the future, when we make another plan, it'll be more perfect while trying to buy off the full copyright in one go. If we buy a lesson now, it'll be better than mass production. Additionally, we'll need several savvy professionals! If we can buy the rights of the design in the early stage, the later stage of the professional packaging to improve our fame, and then buy it after it gets famous, it'll save us a lot of money!" Holger said.
Upon taking a sip of tea, Trevor didn't say anything. However, his expression was still dark. "Well, then do as you say. Set up a specialized planning team!" He ordered.
"Yes, I'll ask them to come out with a plan. I'll give it to you as soon as possible. Trevor, you seemed to be recently irritated. You'd better go out and relax," Holger replied.
If he continuously bottled up his feelings like this, he wouldn't be able to stand it anymore.
A pair of fiery eyes looked at him. Holger almost jumped up from his chair as he said, "I suddenly remembered that I need to attend a meeting. I'll go first..."
After taking a few big steps, he quickly walked out from the door.
Trevor held his forehead as his mood worsened.
When night fell, Trevor drove to East Bannpool. However, as soon as he entered the door, the loud music extinguished most of his excitement. He didn't even enter the private room. He directly turned to the bar and ordered a bottle of red wine. As soon as he took two sips, a sweet voice came. "Sir, are you alone?"Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
Upon looking over, he saw a young woman with heavy makeup. She was considered a beauty. As such, he took a glass and poured some wine. He pushed it as the woman took over. She turned to lean on him and one of her arms rested on his shoulder.
"Here's to you," she said.
Upon taking the supplementary accessories from her friends,
Victoria returned to the hall of East Bannpoot. As she was about to have a taste of the "Heavens Coffee" that everyone was talking about, her eyes landed on the bar. The flirtatious atmosphere around Trevor entered her view.
She was so furious that she turned around and hurriedly walked to the door.
"What bad luck! No matter where I go, I'll always meet this jinx! He's really a playboy. Why isn't he dead yet?" She thought to herself.
Her heart was filled with indignation and her anger couldn't be suppressed. In the end, she ran to a nearby cafe and bought an ice cream. She felt the coolness as she ate the ice cream in the cold weather.
After enjoying the cool breeze on the streets, she went home muddle-headed.
Meanwhile in East Bannpool, Trevor initially wanted to relax. At first, he was still patient. However, after two glasses of wine, he suddenly felt disgusted by the woman.
Upon putting aside her looks, she was actually smoking. She was crude and had a poor sense of fashion.
Not only did he retract his gaze, but he seemed to be able to pick up endless dissatisfaction even just from a slight gaze.
A gust of wind passed by with an indescribable odor mixed with the smell of alcohol. He couldn't help but frown a little.
"Sir, I'm a little tired now. Why don't we find a room to rest?" The woman said.
Her red lips got closer. He couldn't help but raise his hand and push her away. He took out a stack of money and threw it to her.
"I'm not interested. Get lost," he said.
Upon putting away the money, the woman still moved closer to him. His cold eyes slanted as the woman's smile suddenly froze at the corner of her lips. She took a business card from the counter and wrote down her phone number before leaving.
"If you need it, find me. I'll give you a discount," she said.
Before turning around to leave, the woman pouted at him and threw a kiss.
At that moment, Trevor only sensed a disgusting smell that made him nauseous. He got up as he felt the need to go to the washroom.
He washed his face and looked at his reflection in the mirror. He seemed lifeless and dispirited. He didn't look like he was here for fun at all. He knocked on his head and gasped.
What's wrong with him? Why was he feeling tired from his favorite nightlife?
Being alone was far too boring.
He picked up his phone and looked through it. All of a sudden, he didn't know who he should call. Frederick was a definite no, Carson needed to rest, Wyatt was on a business trip, Willy was going home for dinner...
As he locked his phone, he felt more and more that he was seriously ill.
As he stood in front of the bar, he drank a few more glasses of wine as he paced back and forth. Many women came to strike up a conversation with him as he also searched for his prey. However, on

that specific night, he restlessly sat there until midnight. In a nightclub like East Bannpool, which was always crowded with beauties, he had no interest in any one of them.
When he walked out, he was so full of complaints that he couldn't wait to immediately tear down East Bannpool.
From the beginning to the end, he
didn't know how many times he had passed by the people who were always on his mind. He didn't realize it at all. He didn't intend to make a mistake. After being teased

countless times, he couldn't help it anymore.
