“Who said so? I’ve even prepared the contract for you.” Caroline took out the contract from her bag and handed it
over to Daphne.
“Take a look. It’s stated here–20 million dollars. I’m serious about it.”
Daphne forgot all about her hatred for Caroline the moment she saw the words “20 million dollars” on the paper.
Noticing how Daphne was on the verge of accepting the offer, Layla gripped her hand and added, Ms. Daphne, I
can give you 25 million dollars a year.”
Now, Daphne’s gaze snapped at Layla.
“Layla,” Caroline called out.
Layla’s heart bled when the words left her mouth just now, but seeing Caroline’s anxious face made her think that it
was all worth it
“Caroline, the higher bidder wins the prize. You can raise the price if you have the power to ”
“Don’t be too full of yourself” Caroline snarled, her brows knitted closely together.

your endorsement fees if you sign the contract with my company‘
It made Layla burst out laughing. “Caroline, all you do is lie to others. That broken company of
yours doesn’t even have the funds to operate well enough.
“How many sales do you think you can get? And now you’re telling me that you’re giving others

Caroling slowly let out her breath. It didn’t take long for her to notice Sonia’s figure in the crowd.
Sonia was occupied with memorizing her lines. As the female lead, her set and props were way better compared to
Daphne’s.
Caroline then turned to give Layla a smile. “You’ve never even checked the company’s ledger,
right?”
“What do you mean?” Layla asked, puzzled.
“What is your target? Are you aiming for high–end consumers or mid and low–tiered ones?”
Layla gritted her teeth. “Whatever you’re aiming for, just know that I’ll be there to intercept you.”
“Really?” This made Caroline’s smile widen.
“Why do I feel like your target is the high–end consumers then? After all, you paid a lot for both your designer and
your ambassador. Are you sure that you can profit from the other consumers
then?”

Caroline’s words to hit her.
“Y–you never wanted to sign the contract with Daphne!” She stammered.
Caroline merely smiled in response as Cheryl watched their interaction from behind, her mouth
