The call wasn’t even disconnected yet when Evelyn Clayton clicked on the news link sent by Yara Reagan.
The news article was published by a highly credible newspaper, complete with both text and images.
The rough content was that an influencer with millions of followers claid they had previously purchased custom clothing and accessories from Gem Company, specifically from one of the shows "Dream Aura" or "Epheral Life" before.
The influencer detailed how Gem had sent soone to customize for them, with a friendly attitude and impressive efficiency.
But the mont they received the clothes and accessories, they found them crudely made, with cheap materials that didn’t justify the hefty six-figure price tags.
In the video, the influencer even showed photos of the clothes, clearly marking issues like seams coming apart, pattern errors, and poor stitching.
The more Evelyn Clayton read, the deeper her frown.
On the other end, Yara Reagan was already fuming.
"Our real-ti trending search ratings are skyrocketing like fireworks! That influencer is refusing any contact from our people, clearly determined to make us take the fall!"
Evelyn Clayton steadied her racing heart, forcing herself to stay calm: "Don’t panic yet. We deal with customization. Have you asked our team employees yet? Could it be a problem on their end?"
Yara beca anxious: "Of course I asked! How could it be our team’s problem? Those people are all under Franklin Ford’s supervision! Could it be that Franklin is trying to sabotage us from behind?"
In her anxiety, her words ca out harsh.
But Evelyn Clayton couldn’t be bothered by that now; her mind was racing.
Franklin Ford and Violet Ford certainly wouldn’t harm them.
While it wasn’t entirely impossible, logically speaking, the Ford siblings had no reason to do such a thing!
"Right now, gather all company employees back at Gem, have them stop all tasks, and make sure no one posts anything on public platforms!"
Evelyn Clayton took a deep breath: "I can’t bail on Lynn Yates, so Yara, stabilize the employees and wait for to return. Even if it takes all night, we have to resolve this issue!"
Yara also gradually cald down and said firmly, "Don’t worry! I won’t let anyone leave before you return tonight!"
Hanging up the phone, Evelyn Clayton leaned back in the passenger seat, feeling a throbbing headache.
Next to her, Rhys Jacobs had caught most of the conversation, his expression grave.
He suggested, "Director Clayton, maybe you should let Director Yates know. She might understand—"
"She indeed could understand my sudden cancellation of the eting, but this online matter... Lynn Yates most likely is already aware of it. My appearance there is to reassure her! Otherwise, the collaboration with Lynn might fall through..."
Evelyn Clayton slightly opened her eyes.
At this mont, she appeared calm, but her mind was already in overdrive.
Who could have done this?
Logically, the only ones who could access the custom products were the team sent by Franklin Ford, but due to vested interests, Evelyn didn’t believe Franklin would do such a thing.
It wouldn’t benefit him at all!
If that’s the case...
Could it be soone from Gem who caused the problem?
Evelyn Clayton dared not think further.
If it truly was soone from within Gem who ssed up, everything thereafter might be ruined.
Lost in thought, Rhys Jacobs stopped the car.
His voice was slightly somber, with a hint of reassurance.
"Director Clayton, don’t overthink it, this issue will definitely be resolved. Right now, the most important thing is to et with Director Yates."
