Chapter 312
Ada and Melanie left the cafe after more than ten minutes, but no one knew what they talked about.
Back in Perficient, Ada began to think of ways to save Pond Corporation.
Suddenly, she recalled the 140 million dollars that Remus Corporation had invested in Perficient. If she invested some of it in Pond Corporation, the company would survive the crisis. Besides, no one would realize it if she replenished it once she had the money.
At that thought, she immediately made up her mind.
Hence, she transferred the money to Idris near noon. While she heaved a sigh of relief, she became dissatisfied with Idris and Mindy. She felt that she would probably be dating Neil now if they did not always hold her back.
In the subsequent days, Perficient’s fashion sales remained high, but their losses had accumulated to over 1.3 million dollars.
Ada had no choice but to stop things because of the shareholders‘ fierce opposition. Their dissatisfaction with her was also met with her annoyance.
To her, they were old–fashioned and rigid.
She felt that losing some money was normal if they wanted to defeat MY Corporation. They could rapidly occupy the market that way. However, the shareholders insisted on stopping her.
It irritated her, and she wanted to drive them out of Perficient. But she still needed them for now because she had yet to gain a firm foothold in the company.
Meanwhile, Silvia and Dulcie had calculated Perficient’s loss for that week.
“It’s around 1.3 million dollars. If they had continued, they might have raised their market share, but the money has gone to waste now that they’ve ended their promotion.
Silvia calmly disagreed. “No. They’ve increased their fame at the very least. We need to launch excellent products in the next season, or else, we’ll be attacked. By the way, how’s it going with Rita?”
“I’ve hired four designers for her. I’m sure she’ll produce the first batch of designs in half month if nothing goes wrong.

Silvia nodded. “Keep an eye on that. We need to launch exclusive fashion before Perficient. makes a move
“Understood.”
Once they were done discussing business, Dulcie asked, “Are you free tonight?” NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.
Raising her brows, Silvia asked, “Why? Do you want to buy me dinner?”
“Yeah. Didn’t I tell you that I was seeing someone? He’s officially my boyfriend, so I want to treat you to a meal.”
The news surprised Silvia. She smiled and said, “Yes, I’m free, but I might bring another person along.”
“Is it Neil?”
“Yes.
“No problem. I’ll tell my boyfriend.”
After Dulcie left, Silvia called Neil and told him about their plans tonight.
Neil remained silent for a moment before he whispered, “I’m sorry, but I might be busy tonight.”
Silvia pursed her lips. “Why? Do you have a work dinner?”
“No, I need to go back to Remus Residence.”
Silvia pretended to be indifferent even though she was disappointed. “Okay.”
After she hung up, she texted Dulcie and updated her on Neil’s absence.
Once Silvia and Dulcie clocked out, they headed to the restaurant together. Silvia widened her eyes in disbelief when she saw Dulcie’s boyfriend.
“How did you guys become a couple?!”
She never thought that Dulcie would date Ethan, the blind date whom she had initially rejected.
Dulcie raised her brows with pride and grinned. “That’s because I had him at hello, and he’s been pursuing me ever since.”
Silvia glanced at Dulcie. “What a narcissist!‘
Ethan smiled dotingly.
“Dul is right, Miss Pond. It was love at first sight for me.”
Dulcie raised her brows again. “See? I wasn’t lying.”
Ethan passed the menu to Silvia and asked, “What would you like to eat, Miss Pond? I’ve ordered Dul’s favorite food.”
In response, Dulcie held his face and kissed it. “Thank you, darling.
