Chapter 1534
Mark smiled upon hearing that, "We should judge a person based on their actions rather than their motives. Nobody
is perfect in this world. Whether she wants to earn money from you or be your friend, she hasn't done anything to
harm you. In fact, she has been helping you. So, what's the point of dwelling on these details?
"Would you not buy anything from her if she were really your friend? Shouldn't it give you another reason to
support her business if that's the case? Your mindset now is contradictory.
"You don't have to worry too much about her intentions.
Just attend the event if you feel like it. She hasn't threatened you to go, right? Why are you overthinking it?"
Kayla paused. Suddenly, she felt more at ease.
On the day of The Velvet's launch event, Wenham purposely rearranged his schedule to attend.
He had heard about The Velvet’s recent sales performance and was concerned about his daughter's hardships in
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtrunning her business. He even asked Stella if she needed any help, and he could secretly assist her.
However, Stella was confident and insisted that he should stay out of her business.
Wenham could buy all the leftover goods, and The Velvet would survive for at least a few more months. However,
that
would be pointless. It would also be embarrassing for Stella if people found out.
Although Stella declined his offer, Wenham figured that he should still be there to show his support for her first
business endeavor as a father. So, he also contacted some of his close friends and invited them to the event.
As a result, Stella saw plenty of prominent figures in the business world attending the event before it was even
started. She was shocked.
"What's my dad thinking?" Stella complained to Keegan backstage, "My target audience is wealthy women and rich
girls, yet he invited a bunch of men. What's even worse is that none of them brought their wife."
"Uncle Wenham probably didn't think much of it," Keegan said.
Just as they were chatting, Vermont brought Felicity backstage, too.
"Stella, the gift you prepared for your customers is beautiful. Why didn't you make one for my pretty girlfriend?"
Felicity nudged him with her elbow, "Do you ever stop talking?"
Stella smiled, "Of course, how could I forget about Felicity? I didn't give you one because I was worried about the
design being leaked. I'll give it to you once the event ends later."
"Did you hear that? You should stop trying to sabotage our relationship. Stella will never forget about me."
"Yes, yes, yes. She's your best friend, am I right?" Vermont teased Felicity before he continued, "Stella, there are so
many people here. Your marketing team did a pretty good job."
Stella said, "Most of them are probably here because of my family's influence. It's unsure how many of them will be
our actual customers."
Keegan held her hand and said, "You've got to be confident in your product."
A bright smile appeared on Stella's face, "I'm very confident."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe event began, and Stella led her team to the seats in the front row.
The emcee delivered the opening speech, followed by Chris and the design team taking the stage to explain the
event's theme.
Everything was going according to plan. When the images of the new products were displayed on the screen, Stella
observed the reactions of those around her. She could tell that many were interested in the product line, and some
were even taking photos with their phones.
Stella felt less worried. The designers on stage gradually relaxed as they confidently talked about their creations
and shared their design philosophies.
When it was Maggie's turn, she clenched her hands nervously as the screen showed her design for the
tenthanniversary commemorative gift.
She grabbed the mic and introduced it, "This is the tenthanniversary commemorative gift we came up with. Its
name is Rebirth. We chose the butterfly as the main theme because..."
Suddenly, a voice from the audience interrupted Maggie's presentation, "Are you the one who designed this? Our
company just launched a new necklace from the 'Dancing Butterfly' series, which looks almost identical. Are you
copying it, or is this merely an inspiration?"
