She Left, She Thrived, She’s Worth Billions novel Chapter 60

"What?"

Evelyn was utterly shocked.

"I heard she recently started her own studio and broke away. All the top luxury brands are clamoring to work with her."

"Wait a minute, just now… did she say she designed Melanie's dress?"

"So that means Melanie isn't wearing some cheap knock-off, but a custom-made gown from a legendary designer!"

Behind her, the hushed whispers of the Hale family made Evelyn's face grow even paler. She was digging her nails into her palms so hard they were about to draw blood.

"From now on, my designs are not to be sold to this Ms. Hale. Also, inform all manufacturers that if they wish to work with me, they are no longer to do business with this Ms. Hale either."

"Hey, you can't just bully people like that!"

Evelyn yelled at Valerie, but Valerie didn't even bother to give her a second glance.

Melanie shook her hand and readily agreed.

Dominic was completely dumbfounded by this point.

He couldn't understand what was happening before his eyes.

Why were a major figure from Stellaris PharmaTech and a world-class designer fawning over Melanie?

"Would Ms. Royce do me the honor of joining me at my table?"

Gabriel's invitation was direct.

"Yes, Ms. Royce. Why stay here with a bunch of philistines? The air has gone stale,"
