The busy week passed in the blink of an eye. The venue of the wedding was a seaside golf resort owned by the Farwell family. It was an expansive location that was covered with lush greenery which allowed people to enjoy the sea breeze and hear the waves crashing, making it the perfect place to hold the wedding.
Lucian had organized a few rehearsals ahead of time but never brought Roxanne along. Thus, she couldn’t help but wonder what the wedding would be like. Nevertheless, she was certain that it would be a romantic occasion. As such, she was filled with anticipation.
Meanwhile, the third batch of Flora Verba Group’s products had gone through its consumer trial and received feedback for it. After some improvements were made, production started accordingly.
Roxanne consequently rushed to the factory to conduct a quality inspection to ensure that the ratio of ingredients within the products was correct.
At the same time, the quality control department conducted its own tests. Many of the female employees in the factory bought the products too. They were given an employee discount and were limited to two sets each month.
Inside the office of the research institute, Elektra was having a meeting with Roxanne. She talked about distribution to affiliated stores and raised the matter of hiring a few brand ambassadors who were willing to endorse for a reasonable fee on the account of their friendship with Elektra. In return, they simply asked for priority access to the company’s future products.
Given the favorable conditions, Roxanne agreed without hesitation. Elektra is really a genius when it comes to marketing. She has also put a lot of effort into the partnership. That’s why I think she deserves to be given the right to distribute the profits we gain from the third phase.
Unfortunately, Roxanne didn’t notice the insidious glint that flashed across Elektra’s eyes. I’m sorry, Roxanne. I was forced to do this. I don’t have a choice. Deep down, Elektra had made her decision.
The real reason she recruited the A-listed celebrities as brand ambassadors were to further escalate the impending controversy.
“I’ll head over to the factory to see if they need any help. Don’t worry. I’ll keep a close eye on the employees and make sure they’re not overworked.” With that, Elektra left the office. On the way to the factory, she took out her phone and gave Christina a call.
“Production has begun. From tonight onward, trucks will pick up the goods and distribute them all over the country for three consecutive days. Our plan can now be set into motion!”
Elektra proceeded to calmly elaborate on her plan. Upon learning of it, Christina was ecstatic. “I’ll fly back from Hawen tomorrow just to witness this beautiful moment. In terms of the people you need, I have made the necessary arrangements. Just use them to your heart’s content.”
Witness? Elektra scoffed in her heart. The real reason she’s coming back is to share the spoils. Upon arriving at the factory, Elektra saw that two lorries were already filled with goods and ready to leave. She contacted the factory manager at once to have him stop the trucks so that she could check the goods.
The factory manager was named Leroy Leeson and used to work at the research institute. When Roxanne noticed his talent for management, he was subsequently transferred to the factory.
“Ms. Lane, what’s the reason for doing so? No one told me about any tests. These products are good to go, as they have passed the checks of the quality control department.” Leroy was puzzled by the request.
As Roxanne had full faith in him, she had never requested another test once the goods had gone through him.
“Yes, it’s true that there were no issues with the first two phases’ products, but this time is different. This is a requirement set by the authorities. Don’t worry about it. It’s just an examination. It won’t take much time.”
Elektra had already come up with a reason to persuade him. Only by convincing Leroy could she avoid him notifying Roxanne.
