Chapter 1107

At noon, Darlene came to the company to see Eden.

"Have a seat, aunt," Eden asked Amelia to pour a glass of juice for Darlene.

Darlene went abroad for a long time and just came back today.

She seemed to be in a good mood, and her smile was much brighter than before. Eden always felt that her aunt was in love.

Darlene glanced at Eden and smiled lovingly. "Eden, I learned a lot of things abroad this time, so I came to share it with you. It seems that you won't be able to participate in this year's international design competition. We will wait for next year." Darlene felt a little pity for her. There hadn't been any good works in the competitions for the past two years. Eden had a good chance last year, but all kinds of things happened.

Eden only smiled, didn't seem to bother at all. "There are still many opportunities in the future. It doesn't matter."

Without Victor, she would still be alone even though she climbed up to that position.

"Yes!" Darlene smiled and nodded. "There will be many opportunities in the future. Don't worry, you're still young."

Darlene looked at Eden's legs, feeling great pain in her heart. "You told me that you walk for a bit now? How are you feeling?"

"It's still the same. We have to be patient," said Eden.

Darlene nodded, "Yes, you should have faith."

"Yes, I will." Eden smiled gently and nodded.

The news of Eden taking over Alwynn Group had gone mad online recently. Darlene also saw it.

She actually met a very talented girl this time when she was abroad. This girl had been focusing on the market in the north district of River City two months ago, and Alwynn Group also had a very successful sales result in that area.

Eden's work had inspired her a lot, therefore, and Darlene believed that her design of this summer season would make a great coup in C Country.

Thinking of this, she took out a stack of documents from her handbag and handed them to Eden.

"This is the document of my overseas investigation this time. There is a designer named Melissa Craig from C Country, who is also the daughter of the president of our company. I met her this time, and she said she has always been very interested in your work.

She came to the north district of River City to study your work. Your design inspired her a lot, so after going back, she created a lot of good designs. And this batch of clothes is going to aim the market around River City. In my opinion, she is a strong competitor to you. And this time, Alwynn Group is also going to have a strong opponent."

Eden smiled and didn't seem to care at all. But she was still very grateful that Darlene told her this.

"There always will be many talented people in this world. This is a very competitive industry as well, so it is so common to have opponents. The only thing I can do is try my best."

"That's true." Darlene looked at her confident face and smiled as well. "I believe that with your ability, you can definitely become the winner. Melissa is a very competitive person, but her father is a nice man."

This time, she also had her own business to deal with in C Country.

She had known Carney Craig for many years, and he also liked her for many years. She felt that she finally started to feel something for him recently.

However, his daughter didn't like her at all, so they didn't have any progress this time. She only hoped that his daughter would change a little in the future.

Eden looked at her and smiled. "Aunt, you've changed a lot this time."

Darlene didn't expect that Eden could tell it, but she didn't want to hide anything from her anyway.

"The girl I just talked about, Melissa, is Carney's daughter. Carney's wife died a few years ago, leaving a son and a daughter to him. And these few years, he has been asking me out.

I didn't properly move on from my own mass at that time, so I never agreed to it. When I met you, I feel that I figured everything out all of a sudden. There is really no point to make myself stuck in the sadness from before. I should move on and enjoy my life.

So I wanted to try it with him. However, his daughter did not like us to be together. His son didn't say anything. This time, I had a bit hard time with his daughter.

She always thinks that I just wanted her father's money."

Hearing this, Eden already knew how complicated it was. Rich families never have trust in each other.

"You are such a sincere person, so I believe you will convince her one day."

Darlene nodded with a smile. "That's what I'm thinking too. Anyway, I need to go now as I have a meeting later. I left the box outside. There are snacks I brought for you. I didn't know what to bring, so I just bought some snacks."

Eden smiled with a grateful look and nodded. "Thank you."

Then Darlene got up and ready to leave. Before she left, she suddenly turned back around and looked a little worried.

"Eden, although Melissa and I don't get along with each other, I still won't say bad things about her just because of that. But I have to tell you that I think she copied your work. You must be careful.

Don't fall in her trap."

Eden frowned slightly. It sounded like she indeed should be careful.

"Yes, I'll be careful."

Darlene looked at her and nodded with satisfaction. "Eden, a real strong person never cares about winning others. Instead of competing with others, it's better to calm down and make yourself stronger, so that no one else could defeat you anymore. When you become popular, they will have to respect you."

Eden was this kind of person. Once she showed her real talent, no one else could be a match for her.

Hearing these words, Eden knew what she should do. A person of high position was more liable to be attacked.

A real strong person might not be the most powerful man in the world, but they must have a strong heart that made them confident. Confidence was always the most important thing.

After Darlene left, Eden started reading the documents.

Darlene always tried her best to give everything she had to Eden. No matter what she learned from abroad, the first thing she thought about would always be to share it with Eden.

Eden pressed the button on her wheelchair and went back to the desk, looking at Melissa's information carefully.

Melissa Craig, twenty-six years old. Eden frowned slightly, thinking that she was still very young.

Then she glanced at the photo, noticing that she was also a very beautiful girl.

She graduated from a famous university of C Country and majored in design.

She scrolled down and saw several photos of her design.

Eden frowned even deeper. All her designs looked very similar to her own work.
