Chapter 459
Layla’s reputation took a downturn overnight.

As a result, many people denounced the quality of their products online. This caused consumers
who had placed orders but hadn’t yet received their products to request a refund.
This incident soon affected Daphne as well.
“Since she’s a big star, she should be aware that she has a big appeal. So why couldn’t she pick
the right things to endorse?”
“She would really accept any kind of endorsement to make money!”
“Wow, aren’t they supposed to be family? It turns out that they still had to pay her an endorsement
fee.”
“Hahaha, I feel like laughing just thinking about this. In the livestream, they were acting so close,
like family. I thought they didn’t have to pay her anything, but it turns out that they had to do
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtbusiness, even with family.”
“Daphne really left a bad impression on this incident. She was just a minor internet celebrity. If
she wasn’t Eddy’s aunt–in–law, no one would know who she is!”
Daphne was currently in Avondale. She was there for a vacation, but her good mood was ruined by
this incident.
“Ugh, it had to be Caroline again.” She angrily paced around the room with the tablet in her hand.
“Layla is also useless. Eddy gave her so many resources, but she still messed up.”
The manager consoled, “Don’t worry, Daph. I’ve contacted the company’s advertising department

The manager explained, “I told the advertising department this, and they said it’s Mr. Eddy’s orders ”
Daphne immediately smiled. “Since it’s his order, I’ll do as he wishes.”
If she issued a statement, she wouldn’t have anything to do with this incident anymore. And she didn’t even have to

As soon as Daphne issued a statement, Layla, who was already in a dire situation, hit rock bottom.
At this moment, Evanson Corp was filled with the sound of ringing phones.
The phone calls were all from factories, consumers, and reporters. Some wanted to interview Layla, some wanted
to return their products, and some asked for their money back.
The office was noisy, like a marketplace.
Layla stood behind her desk, her hair disheveled and her eyes red. She scratched her head frantically like a mad
woman.
“There must be a way! You must have a way to turn this situation around!”
Standing in front of her were the elites from her company’s various departments, all of whom were feeling
disgraced.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThis was their first time failing so miserably. They had encountered losses before, but none as bad as this. Even with
a huge advantage, they had still lost.
“Ms. Layla!” Someone stepped out, unable to take the pressure anymore.
“We’ve already lost! There’s nothing we can do!”
“No!” Layla yelled.
“We didn’t lose. There’s no way we would lose to Caroline! I hired the best designers and the most
