Duncan looked at Monica and asked, “Did you track down the person I told you about earlier?”

Monica replied, “Relax. Everything is moving exactly as planned.”

After saying goodbye to Duncan, Monica went back to her place. Once inside her room, she picked up her phone and dialed a number.

She said, “I screwed up. How are things going on your side?”

The person on the other end gave a faint laugh and said, “She’s been unbelievably lucky. Nothing seems to take her down.

“I can’t act too aggressively right now, but don’t worry. There will be a chance.”

Monica frowned and said impatiently, “How long are we supposed to wait? That woman is getting completely out of control! She’s already got her hands in The Hales!”

The voice on the line remained calm. “You can’t rush this, Ms. Hale. She’s not someone ordinary.

“Her tactics and planning are far beyond what most people can handle. You have to be extremely careful.

“When the time comes, I’ll make her realize that no matter how lucky she has been, that luck won’t last forever!”

After the turmoil with the Hale family, Agnes returned to her usual routine.

Learning that she was truly part of the Hale family did not bring her any joy. Instead, it left her feeling shocked, along with emotions she couldn’t easily explain.

The Hale family held immense power, and Calvin had promised her half of the shares. That alone was enough to guarantee a life of comfort for generations.

But after the birthday party, her life had suddenly changed. She now had a father, a stepmother, and a younger half–sister.

She had no desire to get involved in that complicated situation. She understood that the Hale family was far more complicated than it appeared on the surface.

She had never wanted to stop moving forward or settle for what was given to her. Life meant more than that..

What she had always wanted was to stand on her own and build her own future.

That was what her mother had taught her.

Her store, Tidewhisper Lily, was proof of that belief.

Agnes continued to run her shop with care, pushing the whole family reunion with The Hales to the back of her mind.

In the past few days, another store selling classical embroidery clothing had opened in Grandridge. It was called Verdant Bloom.

Because of its fresh designs and bold use of color, it quickly drew attention and stood out in the city’s fashion scene.

Before long, people online began comparing Verdant Bloom with Tidewhisper Lily.

Both brands combined classical hand embroidery with modern design elements, and their styles appeared quite similar.

Agnes had also taken notice of the new store. As she looked through the pieces released by Verdant Bloom on her computer, she had to admit their work was impressive.

Standing nearby, Nadia and Rita watched the screen and clicked their tongues.

Nadia said, “Honestly, this place called ‘Verdant Bloom‘ seriously looks like a copycat of our “Tidewhisper Lily.‘

“The designs and color choices are almost identical. They’re clearly riding on our popularity.

Rita nodded. “Exactly. It feels like they just took our designs, tweaked them a bit, and turned them into their own collection.”

Nadia continued, “Tidewhisper Lily has gotten so popular. There were already a few stores trying to imitate us before, but none of them lasted.

“But this one actually took off. Do you think someone is hyping it up behind the scenes?

Rita said, “That’s possible. This store is definitely going to be a strong competitor. We need to stay alert!”

Agnes, who had been sitting quietly in the back, finally spoke.

“You two should focus on your own work instead of making assumptions all day.

“Grandridge is a big place. There’s no way our store is the only one doing classical embroidery clothing.

“Competition is unavoidable. What matters is maintaining the right mindset and improving our own brand.

“As for other stores, there’s no need to compare. Learn from them instead. Study their strengths and understand why they succeed. Understood?”

Nadia and Rita exchanged a glance. Though they looked a bit unwilling, they both nodded.

Rita said, “Understood. We’ll work harder.

“Oh, right, Agnes. Ms. Sutton from X Auto Group just called to ask about the custom embroidered gown she ordered, ‘Wildflower Bloom.”

“She said she wants to come to the store to try on the gown tomorrow. Can we make it in time, Agnes?”

Agnes replied, “Yes. I’ll go finish it shortly. It will be ready tonight.”

That evening, Agnes first returned to the Newton Estate.

Megan had said that Sabrina wasn’t feeling well, so Agnes went back to check on her.

After taking her medication, Sabrina had already fallen asleep. It wasn’t anything serious, which finally put Agnes at ease.
