Chapter 219 Take Responsibility
For the next five minutes, Kate drove with Eric on speakerphone, listening to Miles rant non- stop.
First, he asked why Kate hadn’t told him she was warm. He expressed his curiosity and
admiration for Warm and dissected the recent online public opinion. Once he got started, there was no stopping him.
Finally, with a hint of bitterness, he said, “Kate, you didn’t share such an important thing with me. I’m really disappointed.”

George was on the mend at the hospital and managed to make a full recovery, but he had to stick around there for a whole month before he could head back to Summer Estate.
While George was improving, HN Studio was killing it, gathering many new fans left and right. The team–ups between Davison Group, Clover Company, and Lowe Group dropped some new designs that flew off the shelves. Some of those pieces sold for crazy high prices, making these three hot topics everywhere.
Maia Bowman, who used to lead the design team at Davison, ended up behind bars for slinging mud at Kate, acting out, and sneaking off with some top–secret information from Davison Group. Looks like she’s not getting out of there any time soon.
