Chapter 201 Laughingstock Of The Town
Finally, it became clear why, a few days ago, Emrys had dared to make such a confident bet with him at the cocktail party. It turned out that everything had been within Emrys‘ plans.
“Darn it!”
Huxley was so furious that he almost wrecked the entire office.
However, regardless of how angry he was, the product quality had issues. The reputation of Honeybeauty Group plummeted drastically, and there were even numerous victims gathering daily beneath the office building of Honeybeauty Group, seeking an explanation from Huxley.
These past few days, Huxley had been sneaking in and out of the company.
Meanwhile, in the circle of socialites, some of the wealthy ladies suddenly discovered that World- Enchanting Beauty had unexpectedly hit the market. This facial mask, which had initially been distributed as a thousand samples, had not encountered any quality issues up to now.
Therefore, they didn’t need to worry that this product would end up like Pretty Face, riddled with problems a week later.
Some victims of Pretty Face had purchased World–Enchanting Beauty with a try–and–see attitude. To their astonishment, they found that the problems caused by Pretty Face were perfectly resolved by this miraculous face mask.
Upon the release of this news, the sales of World–Enchanting Beauty skyrocketed instantly.
Huxley was livid, seething with rage. He had sent people to apprehend Benjamin, but they came back empty–handed, not even a hair of him was found. Benjamin had already left Jazona with his family.
At that moment, Huxley’s private phone suddenly rang.
He picked up, and the sounds emanating from within were enough to make him seethe with rage.
“Mr. Bjorn, do you remember the bet we made previously? Now that you’ve lost, isn’t it time to fulfill your promise and hold a press conference to apologize?” From NôvelDrama.Org.
The call was from Emrys.
Huxley cursed, “You’ve got guts, Lund. I will remember this. Sooner or later, I’ll pay you back double. Just you wait!”
Emrys said, “That is a matter for later. What I’m asking you now is, when will the press conference be held?”
“Damn you!” Huxley grumbled as he hung up the phone.
Emrys let out a light sigh and said, “You’re just not making good use of the opportunities given to you!”
Huxley had no intention of honoring the bet, which was all within Emrys‘ expectations. However, after missing this opportunity, Huxley would not have a good time in the future.

Chapter 201 Laughingstock Of The Town
A glint of cold light flashed in Emrys‘ eyes.
Suddenly, Cordelia ran from behind the couch and wrapped her arms around Emrys‘ neck, unable to resist planting a k*ss on his cheek. “Emrys, you’re truly amazing,” she exclaimed, “It was a really good
battle.”
Cordelia was as joyful as a little girl.
She had thought that this was a game she was bound to lose. Little did she know Emrys would actually give her such a big surprise.
Following the maneuvers of Honeybeauty Group, the victims of Pretty Face began to use World- Enchanting Beauty to improve the adverse conditions on their faces. It was as if Honeybeauty Group had opened up the market but ended up setting the stage for Cordelia Group, transforming the original skincare products into necessities.
Of course Cordelia was delighted.
Emrys felt warmth in his heart but still maintained a stern expression as he said, “Delia, I know you’re happy, but could you please inform me before you k*ss my face next time? I have dignity too.”
“What? What dignity are you talking about?” Cordelia habitually grabbed Emrys‘ ear again. “Now, answer me seriously for once. Can I k*ss your face?”
“Yes, yes, you can!”
Emrys‘ ear throbbed with pain, prompting him to respond hastily. He sprawled onto the couch, assuming a posture of complete surrender.
Come on, I’ve given up on my dignity!
Outside the luxurious private mansion, a figure scaled the wall and finally jumped into the second- floor balcony.
Emrys let out a sigh. “Who would have thought that I would do something like this? If word of this were to get out, I’m afraid I’d be the laughingstock of the town.”
