Melody Strikes Back
Chapter 207
When Melody saw that Jessica agreed to the bet, she sneered in her heart and said calmly. âNo problem. Letâs set the time to be in a week.
Jessica asked. âSure! But how do I know what you say will countâ:
Melody looked at Wilmot. Wilmot stepped forward at the right time. âI will be responsible for her actions.â
Jessica laughed in her heart at Wilmorâs poor taste. She felt that he was blinded by lust, but she smiled and said. âIn that case, letâs write a contract.â
She was sure to win this bet. She could not give this idiot and fry Clear Cosmetics a chance to go back on their word.
âSure.â Wilmot nodded and called the companyâs legal department to write down the contract.
Melody said at the right time, âMiss Summers, you donât mind if I add another bet, right! If we win, I hope you can return the person you poached from us back to us.â
Jessica thought that Icy Clear Cosmetics would definitely love, so she agreed without thinking. âSure! However, you have to show your new product. It doesnât count if you ended up taking Golden Water.â
Melody said, âDonât worry, Miss Summers. Arenât you going to hire experts! Both of us can provide the formula and let the experts verify that this is our new product. With the experts around, no one can cheatâ
At this moment. Jessica looked at Melody like looking at a fool. She suppressed the ecstasy in her heart and nodded. âThen, letâs o you in a week!â
call it a day. See
With that, Jessica swaggered away with her staff. A werk would soon pass.
Another reporter wrote: [Silk Beauty sued Icy Clear for defamation. The chairman of Icy Clear gui
guiltly proposed a bet ]
Every article was biased towards Jessica As soon as the news was released, it immediately made the headlines.
Most of the netizens were on Jessicaâs side. Only a few firmly believed that ley Clear Cosmetics was telling the truth and would continue to support Icy Clear Cosmeticsâs product.
The two sides were in a heated argument. There were also loyal customers of Icy Clear Cosmetics scolding Melody. It was a hot topic on the Internet
At the same time, as soon as Jessica got into the car, a middleâaged man hurriedly pointed at the news on the phone screen and asked, âMiss Summers, it says here that youâre betting with me as a bargaining chip? If you retum me to key Clear Cosmetics, theyâll tear me apartâ
Jessica looked at the man calmly. âHenry, are you blind? Canât you see that the other bet is my position as the chairman? Iâve already staked myself. What are you afraid of? Besides, how long have you been in my company! Donât you know if they can produce new products?â
Only then did Henry Davidson feel less apprehensive. However, a faint sense of uneasiness still surrounded him,
He let out a sigh. While Jessica wasnât paying attention, he texted Yolanda and reported what happened to her.
He sent a message: [Mrs. Fox, Iâve put everything on the line for my son. When can he join the Swanson Group!]
On the other end, Yolanda was on her way back to the Fox family. After reading the news, she was shocked that Melody was so arrogant. But this was a good thing for her. ley Clear would belong to Jessica soon, and Melody would lose a lot of support
Yolanda replied in a good mood: [Donât worry, it wonât take long. My daughter is going to be the one of the owners of the Swanson Group in the future. Isnât it easy for your son to enter the Swanson Group! If you do your job well, you will definitely get paid]
After sending the message.
Yolanda pretended to be worried and said to Russell, âRussell, bad news, Melody is in trouble again..
On the other side, when Henry saw the reply, he finally felt relieved.
At this moment, at the entrance of Icy Clear Cosmetics, Leo questioned Wilmot with a dissatisfied expression, âDidnât you say that it was a stalling tactic? Why did you really sign a contract with them? It has your signature and fingerprint on it. If we canât produce a new product, are you really going to hand the company over?â
Wilmot was about to speak when Melody spoke first. âSir, donât worry. Il finish the formula for the new product very soon. Coupled with the time needed to develop the product, one week is enoughâ
Chapter 207
Leo asked, âWhat new product? Where did you come from! over by Jessica soon!â
Leo was so angry that his en then!
The other higherâups also expressed their dissatisfaction.
rom! Do you know that because of your nonsense just now, Icy Clear Cosmetics will be taken
face was trembling. He pointed at Wilmot and scolded, âTad really shouldnât have landed the company to you back
A person said. âEven if this is the last straw, we canât
nât do it like th
it like thisâ¦â¦.-
Another person said, âItâs great now. We donât have to wait for Silk Beauty to snatch our market. Weâve already given her the company!â
Someone else asked, âWho is this womanâ Could she be a spy sent by Silk Beauty Cosmetics?â
The group of people looked at Melody even more unkindly.
Wilmot took a step forward and stood in front of Melody. T invited her. I believe that she can produce a new product. If she really loses to Silk Beauty Cosmetics. Iâm willing to take full responsibility!â
âYouâ¦â Leo opened his mouth and wanted to scold Wilmot, but he swallowed his words.
If Wilmot lost his power just like that, it would be a good thing for him.
In any case, he was not the one who would lose his position as the chairman. Perhaps he could still benefit from this whole thing.
Thinking of this, Leo did not say anything else. He glared at Melody and turned to leave.
After everyone left. Melody said. âWilmot, donât worry. I wonât let you lose. Arenât you looking for evidence that they stole Golden Waterâs formula? The day of the competition is the best opportunity to do it.â
Wilmot nodded but hesitated.
Golden Waterâs development took a full five years and cost his father a lot of effort. He knew very well how difficult it was to surpass Golden Waterâs formula. The AllâPurpose Water they were competing against was using the Golden Warerâs formula. He wondered if Melody could do it
He wasnât sure, but he couldnât ask it. He could only close his eyes and take a gamble. At most, he would lose all his savings to make up for this deficit
ew products. Let me know if need
you
Wilmot took a deep breath and said, âIl arrange everything else, but you only have a week to develop new anything
Melody said, âAlright, I donât have any equipment at home. Iâll start working in your R&D department tomorrow.
âOkayâ¦â Wilmot nodded with a complicated expression
At this moment, Melodyâs phone rang.. She looked down and saw that it was Russell. âHello, Dad?â
As soon as she picked up the call, she heard Russellâs angry voice. âGet back here right now!
