Chapter 1309 A Solid Chance at Outperforming Janet
The Substitute Wife: My Poor Husband Is A Billionaire
Vivi had never encountered a person so ungrateful. Despite her generous offer to collaborate for free,
Janet remained unappreciative of her efforts.
If it werenât for the fact that Janet belonged to the esteemed White family, and_ that establishing a
relationship with her could potentially open doors to marrying into a highly affluent household,
Vivi wouldnât have bothered dealing with such a worthless young lady. Furious, Vivi stormed into the
restroom, seething with anger. Moments later, she called a friend to vent her frustrations about Janet
âThat girl from the White family, Janet, is simply clueless. She has no understanding of the significance
of marketing whatsoever. She even rejected my offer of free promotion. Itâs clear that sheâs pretending
to be someone sheâs not. Perhaps even her reputation as a brilliant designer is nothing more than a
facade.â
As Vivi spoke, her anger intensified, and her words turned more venomous. âHer so-called studio is just
a waste of money and a frivolous endeavor. Thereâs absolutely no chance of her ever succeeding! If it
werenât for the backing of the White family and Brandon Larson, she would be nothing but at miserable
bitch!â
No sooner had the words left Viviâs mouth than the restroom door was forcefully kicked open with a
resounding thud, startling her.
Her gaze turned towards the person whoâd just kicked the door, and suddenly her delicate face became
pale and awash with fear.
âStatements like that should be based on facts!â Mandyâs haughty voice echoed through the restroom.
âWhatâs wrong with a designer choosing not to work with models who donât align with their style? Itâs
just that you two couldnât come to an agreement on a collaboration. Is it really necessary to slander
Janet behind her back like this?â
Upon entering the washroom to wash her hands, sheâd heard Vivi gossiping incessantly about Janet,
saying negative things about her.
Despite harboring her own dislike for Janet, hearing this woman spew foul language and relentlessly
slander Janet-smearing her in every possible wayâ made Mandy feel inexplicably angry.
The fact that Janet could become her competitor was enough proof of her capabilities. This womanâs
slander towards Janet, therefore, felt like a direct attack on her and the fashion industry at large.
Perhaps that was the reason for her displeasure and anger in that moment.
Mandy managed to find a reasonable justification for her reaction in her thoughts. Since Vivi was
acquainted with Janet, she naturally recognized Mandy as well. In addition to being a talented designer,
Mandy hailed from a diplomatic family. Her clients mainly comprised of high-society elites and affluent
young women.
Vivi quickly had a change of heart and offered an apology, saying, âForgive me. Iâm not well-versed in
the intricacies of the fashion industry and wasnât aware that designers had to select models based on
their styles. I shouldnât have allowed my emotions to get the better of me and criticize a designer like
that.â
Mandy crossed her arms, lifted her chin and let out an arrogant snort.
Given Viviâs penitent demeanor and tone, Mandy decided to let the matter go and not dwell on it any
further.
Vivi smiled awkwardly in an attempt to appease Mandy. âMiss Hamilton, Iâve heard that youâre well-
known in the fashion industry for your luxurious and refined style. I believe Iâd be a good fit for that kind
of aesthetic. Would you consider allowing me to model for you, free of charge?â
As she assessed Viviâs looks and physique, Mandy couldnât help but be intrigued.
Despite finding her irritating, it was impossible to ignore the fact that Viviâs stunning looks and well-
proportioned figure aligned perfectly with her design style.
Furthermore, Vivi already had substantial fan base, and many of her fans were likely to be potential
clients for Mandyâs designs.
If she designed a luxurious and elegant dress and paired it with Viviâs large following, the promotion
effectiveness would undoubtedly be outstanding. By capitalizing on their individual strengths, they had
a good chance of overtaking
Janet in the industry.
As these thoughts raced through her mind, Mandy hesitated and asked, âAre you sure that you can
bring me enough popularity?â
Vivi raised her chin confidently and asserted, âAbsolutely. Although Iâm not a big celebrity, Iâm one of
the most popular influencers on social media. Topping the trending topics is a breeze for me.â
As soon as Mandy heard Vivi boasting, a strong sense of dislike surged within her.
Vivi was merely a small Internet celebrity, yet she thought of herself as a big star. Contemplating on the
potential popularity that Vivi could bring her, Mandy hesitated for a few seconds before clenching her
teeth and reluctantly agreeing, âFine, we can work together. I hope you wonât disappoint me.â
Vivi smiled and reassured her, âNot at all, Miss Hamilton. You can rest assured. The result of our
collaboration will definitely meet your expectations.â
Mandy cast an indifferent glance at Vivi, snorted dismissively, and then turned around and left without
uttering another word.
No matter how she rationalized the situation, one thing was clear-she had a strong dislike for Vivi.
Whether due to her own ethics or personality, she found Vivi to be a hundred times more detestable
than Janet.
If it werenât for her desire to surpass Janet, she wouldnât have bothered to work with a woman like Vivi,
who lacked morals and principles. Just this once. Once she triumphed over Janet, she would never
have anything to do with Vivi again.
