Chapter 201: I Thought You Would Reject My Invite?This material belongs to Nôdaisynovel.com.
Anya came out from Jake’s office and walked back to her own desk.
Along the corridor, she could feel the looks of despise and rage from other designers. Anya knew she could not blame them for thinking that she was the culprit.
This did not just affect her alone, but it implicated all the designers from JK. She had to bear with the accusations for now, until she found out who the culprit was. This couldn’t be the end of her career!
Anya returned to her desk, but her mind was deep in thought. She was uncertain if Jake could handle Carol on his own.
With all that on her mind, she would not be able to get any work done at this rate. She could only think about the situation and tried to think of ways to solve it.
Half an hour passed, a female designer exclaimed out loud from her desk. “Oh my! Everyone, look at the internet! Our CEO, Mr. Welton, has taken action. That is awesome!”
“What is going on?” The designers started to check online for updates as soon as Mr. Welton’s name was mentioned.
“Quick, check it out yourselves!” The designer said excitedly. “Mr. Welton is so powerful! He managed to get all the trending topics and tweets from yesterday off Twitter!”
“Oh, does that mean all the slandering articles about JK are also gone?” Someone asked.
“Yes!” the female designer said respectfully, “He is so influential. Not only did he remove all the negative posts on JK Couture and Welton Group, he also posted a tweet on Welton Group official account, along with a lawyer’s letter. How impressive!”
“What lawyer’s letter?”
“See for yourselves!”
Without further prompts, everyone in the office was already on their devices. Anya heard the commentaries and bit her lips as she went into the official Twitter account of Welton Group. There was a post pinned at the top of the news feed, saying The Welton Group would investigate and take legal actions against the accounts which fabricated the news involving Lola Mars and JK’s designer.
In other words, Evan had mobilized Welton Group’s legal consultants and issued a legal notice to take action on the accounts respectively. In the lawyer’s letter, it was also mentioned that the female designer implicated was framed and Welton Group would not tolerate and hesitate to take legal actions against defamations.
With this, as long as Anya could find the necessary evidence, JK Couture and herself would be free from allegations!
Indeed, things became easier to manage when Evan took control. The other designers in the industry and clients would still be able to trust JK’s reputation since it was a case of defamation.
Anya heaved a sigh of relief. She just needed to find the evidence but where should she start?
Anya felt a headache creeping in. As she drew a few lines on the sketch she was working on, her phone vibrated.
It was a text message from Evan. Let’s have lunch together. I want to understand the details of the incident.
Anya read the message. She was hesitant at first but she knew the situation had impacted the whole JK Couture and Welton Group. She should not decline. Okay, Mr. Welton.
Shortly after, Evan sent another text message. I thought you are going to be stubborn with me and reject my invite.
Anya stared at his reply. It was a different matter altogether. Her agreement to go for lunch together was for a professional agenda. She had the responsibility and obligation to report the happenings to him as an employee of the company.
Mr. Welton, the matter was caused by me. I owe you an explanation.
Evan received her reply. He pursed his lips as he read the message. An explanation would not solve this issue. It would take more than that.
He put his phone down and stared out of the window wall. He picked up his phone after a while and called Lola to invite her along for lunch too.
