"Why did she have to do this?" Shen Tan frowned.
She thought she was quite generous to her staff and couldn’t figure out why soone would do this to her.
The assistant hesitated, "I heard so ti ago that she borrowed a lot of money, could it be related to this?"
Shen Tan also knew that pursuing the reason now was aningless; the urgency was to first resolve the client issue, "Help set up a eting with the client, I’ll talk to her. See if we can rush another gown."
"There are only two days left before the client needs the gown, even if we rush now, won’t it be too late?"
"Let’s contact them first!"
The assistant went out to make the call but soon ca back in with a distressed look towards Shen Tan, "The client is adamant, insisting on a refund and compensation."
Shen Tan slightly knitted her brows, "I understand, secure the gown for now, and negotiate with them about the compensation details."
"We’re really going to compensate?" The assistant looked pained.
"What else can we do?"
"But this gown took us a lot of effort and cost; now the client just doesn’t want it and is walking away – how do we count our losses?" Although it wasn’t her money, thinking about the studio’s loss, she couldn’t help but feel indignant.
"Forget it, failing to satisfy the custor is our fault." This situation could only be blad on their carelessness – after all, the client had a request that they failed to et, so the compensation was justified.
"It’s all Zhang Jingjing’s fault; it’s a pity we don’t have evidence, otherwise we could sue her to make her compensate," the assistant said indignantly.
Now it seed like the other party stole the design and sold it to another house, or intentionally leaked it out. But these things require evidence. Without evidence and only suspicion, they could at most deduct part of her salary.
"Alright, go tend to other matters!" Shen Tan told her.
Of course, this incident couldn’t just be left at that.
In her lifeti, Shen Tan had only suffered a loss at the hands of Jiang Yu, and she hadn’t stumbled because of anyone else; if soone dared to sche against her, they’d better be prepared for her to pursue the consequences.
But the pressing matter was still to resolve the issue with the gown.
Even though she had agreed to compensate, Shen Tan still planned to et with the client.
After all, this was not just about a single transaction but also about the studio’s reputation.
Shen Tan personally went to et with the client.
Sun Yun’er had just finished an advertising shoot and saw that Shen Tan didn’t look very pleased, "Miss Shen, I believe my assistant has made things very clear to you – I will not possibly wear your studio’s gown. I rember I specifically indicated the gown must be original and not resemble any other – yet you tried to pawn off a copied design on ."
"Miss Sun, there’s been a misunderstanding, I’m not here to persuade you to accept the gown, but to apologize. It’s our fault that the gown had a similar style, but please believe that there is absolutely no plagiarism involved, our studio’s designs are all original."
Sun Yun’er sneered, "Are you suggesting that I’m deliberately framing you?"
Shen Tan, "That’s not what I an."
Sun Yun’er directly pulled up a photo of a gown on her phone and handed it to Shen Tan, "This gown was worn by soone at a launch event two days ago, it’s 90% similar to the one you customized for – you’re not going to tell this is a coincidence, are you?"
"Lucky my assistant noticed in ti, otherwise, if I ended up wearing a gown at the awards ceremony that soone else had already worn and then got accused of wearing a copy, wouldn’t that be a huge embarrassnt?"
She even began to suspect whether soone had intentionally set out to sabotage her.
