“Carousel?”
Andrew turned around and started writing on the whiteboard beside him and said, “Many years ago, the
reputation of the Carousel Group’s clothing company turned sour because it used unqualified fabrics.
After that, the entire business was liquidated due to bankruptcy. Later, they wanted to do the clothing
business again. Because their reputation was ruined, they came up with such a name that seemed to
have nothing to do with the group.”
In actuality, they did it to mislead people and give the impression that they were unrelated to the group.
In addition, customers wouldn’t consider the brand’s source before making a purchase.
After recognizing this, Carousel Group changed the name of the new company to make it more well-
known in the garment market.
Honestly, Anna wouldn’t have realized it if Andrew hadn’t talked about it. Otherwise, she would have
assumed that White was some type of obscure business.
“I’ll sue them even though they are a part of the Carousel Group. You know, I at least want them to
know they can’t mess with us.” Anna said with a frown.
Anna thought, I don‘t even care if this company has something to do with Wayne / didn‘t expect that a
big group like them would set up a lousy clothing company just to get profits.
Andrew raised his eyebrows without saying anything. Then, he added, “Okay, whatever. We won’t
produce that series of clothes anyway. So, they can only copy our outdated styles.”
Andrew was obviously not bothered about copying. In fact, Anna understood why he thought so. As an
exceptional and unique designer, Andrew didn’t want to spend his energy arguing with others.
However, it didn’t mean that Anna could tolerate their behavior. After that, Anna sent her assistant to
find lawyers and send legal letters to those companies, including White.
Anna flew to Seriel City on Friday night to attend a business banquet.
She came to the party since the general manager of the Joan Group was present. That company was
going to customize staff uniforms, and he was in charge of it. Anna might bring a large order worth tens
of millions of dollars to her company if her bid were accepted. Additionally, since Lemon had just
started, it would be very beneficial for it to open the market.
People working in leading clothing companies in Seriel City and Birmingham gathered at that cocktail
party.
Carrie Brown, the chief editor of the Seriel City-based fashion magazine “W,” extended the invitation to
Anna. She was introduced to Carrie by Jasper while they were in
Birmingham, which was how she came to know her.
Carrie struck Anna as a forthright, strong, and utterly elite woman. She said, “Oh, I’ve always been
grateful to Mr. Thomas because he had helped me with my career. I had known he was married, but I
didn’t expect his wife to be so young.”
Anna smiled and didn’t tell Carrie the truth about her marriage to Jasper. She didn’t want to talk to
anyone about the truth of their marriage because she really couldn’t explain it clearly.
Carrie led Anna around the hall and introduced her to many people. Afterward, she introduced her to
Mr. Gilbert, the manager of the Joan Group.
“Mr. Gilbert, this is Miss Gabriel, the president of Lemon Clothing. I mentioned her on the phone with
you the other day.”
Anna extended her hand to him and said, “Mr. Gilbert, Nice to meet you. I’m Anna Gabriel.”
“Hello.” Mr. Gilbert shook her hand politely.
Anna thought that Carrie had obviously introduced her to Mr. Gilbert before. Otherwise, he would have
asked what kind of company Lemon was as he had never heard of it.
“Mr. Gilbert, I think it’s a little noisy here. Why don’t we go over there for a talk?”
Anna offered to talk to Mr. Gilbert. They were all business people, so no one came to the party to relax.
Since all they cared about was business, she thought she’d better cut to the chase.
Mr. Gilbert agreed immediately. Then, the three of them walked together to the lounge of the banquet
hall.
Meanwhile, a beautiful woman in the corner of the banquet hall was holding a glass of champagne and
looking at Anna thoughtfully. Her beautiful eyes were full of gloomy emotions.
“Hey, Ada, are you alone? Don’t you have anyone to keep you company?” She heard a man say to her.
Ada looked up at that man and saw that it was Gerard Jacobs, the notorious playboy of Seriel City. For
the past few years, Gerard had been attempting to get her attention and bought her some pricey
presents.
He constantly flirted with ladies, though, so Ada didn’t fall in love with him. Moreover, she couldn’t get
Wayne out of her mind. She would, therefore, only spend time with him when she was bored.
Gerald just so happened to show up right when she was becoming bored. Actually, it was Gerard who
invited her to this party. She came here because she had nothing to do after recently finishing a
commercial shoot in this city.
Ada grinned and answered, “Yeah. Let me tell you, someone invited me here to be his date. But, as the
party just started, he ditched me and flirted with other women. So, I’m just sitting here alone.”
“Hey! Only an i***t would do such a thing! Nobody at the party is more attractive than you, Ada!” To
make her pleased, Gerard complimented her and even cursed himself.
Ada quickly laughed and pointed in the direction of the distance, “I find that woman over there to be
incredibly attractive. She’s as beautiful as I am, isn’t she?”
“How can that be!” Gerard said. But the moment he saw Anna, he couldn’t take his eyes off her.
If Ada was a block of ice, then that woman wearing a burgundy outfit was unquestionably a blazing fire.
She had her long, curly hair cascading over her shoulders, looking elegant and stunning.
Gerard thought to himself, Wow! What a beauty! She must be that boss‘s lover!
Ada remarked teasingly yet somberly, “Hey! Why do you keep staring at her? You think you‘re an
attractive man, don’t you? If you like her, you can definitely go get her.”
As soon as Gerard came back to his senses, he shook his head and remarked, “Oh, forget it, I don’t
dare to mess with her. She’s with Mr. Gilbert, the manager of the Joan Group. So, I’d better stay away
from her.”
Ada pretended to be perplexed as she spoke, “Oh, no! Her name is Anna, and I know her. Do you see
another woman over there? She’s Carrie, the editor-in-chief of W, and she was the one who invited
Anna. I think Carrie introduced them to each other and wanted them to work together. So, they might
have never met before.”
“Oh! I see. She’s a businesswoman? What kind of business she’s doing?”
“She just opened a clothing company. Actually, Anna is Wayne’s ex-girlfriend, and she started her own
company after she broke up with him. Not only is she has many financial connections. Honestly, I think
you guys are a good match.”
Gerard found Ada’s compliment flattering and couldn’t help but continue to stare at Anna. He said,
“What? She’s Wayne Wright’s ex? Hey, I remember you dated him too. So, you two are rivals in love!
You want me to get back at her for you, don’t you?”
Ada took a casual sip of wine and said, “What? Of course not! Wayne and I haven’t spoken in a while.
She and I had a problem with each other, but I would prefer you to have a good time tonight rather than
get back at her.”
Gerard loved to be complimented, so he was delighted after hearing Ada praise him. He said, “Thank
you for thinking about me. Well, don’t worry, I’ll definitely get back at her for you while I have some fun
with her.”
