Reporters were utterly shell-shocked.

"Oh Lord, we've really stepped in it now!"

Their reactions ranged from sheer astonishment to downright terror, so scared that they wouldn't dare make a peep!

Bertram then turned to the officials of Silver City and said,

"Thanks for stepping in. I've got some family matters to sort out. Once I'm done, I'll come and visit you all."

The Silver City officials immediately responded:

"Don't mention it, Bertram. Just give us a ring when you're free, and we'll come over. If there's anything you need from us, just say the word."

This guy was beloved by everyone, even our moms!

If he was slighted in Silver City and went to complain to our moms, the officials would definitely get an earful.

After getting a scolding from our moms, Bertram's vast fanbase wouldn't let Silver City off easy either.

They feared an economic boycott, with people refusing to buy anything from Silver City.

Elysia was stunned for a moment before she snapped back to reality.

Even though she wasn't part of the fashion scene, she knew who Bertram was.

After all, Bertram wasn't just some fashionista. His patriotism was well-known.

And Winona Newsom was a big name in the entertainment world!

Winona's favorite designer was Bertram.
