Audrey Koch ... Audrey Koch.
Let alone the surname, her first name was exactly the same as Audrey Munn's.
Not only was the name, even her appearance similar.
With something that came to his mind, Julian quickly announced the meeting was over. Then he made a call to Wendy.
The girl was just in a terrible fix about things with Blair.
"Julian, what's wrong?" Wendy's voice was filled with exhaustion.
"Wendy, I need to ask you something," Julian slightly rubbed his temples and said.
"What makes it so serious? What is it?"
"It's about Audrey Munn!"
Wendy replied in a cold voice, "Julian, why are you still asking about her? You missed her?"
"Of course not! I just want to be sure if she has died in Country M?" Julian asked seriously.
Wendy chuckled.
"Julian, why are you asking me such a question?"
"What?"
"Julian, what are you doing? At that time, you had sent investigators for Audrey and confirmed her death in Country M; remember that? But now, you are bringing it up again," Wendy sensed that something might happen, "Julian, what happened? Why do you ask her?"
Julian suddenly came to his senses.
Back then, he had sent people to investigate Audrey's death, making sure that there was no coming back. She couldn't show up in Peace City. They just shared some similarities in both appearance and names!
She wasn't Audrey Munn.
"Forget it. It just came to my mind," He tried to change the subject, "Have dinner together?"
Wendy sighed, "I can't."
"Why?"
"Because of Blair!" Wendy said in a pathetic voice, "I can't go out. Otherwise, I will definitely be the news focus again if I get photographed by the paparazzi. I had done nothing! Blair was defaming me!"
Julian frowned, "Hasn't it finished yet?"
"It will be OK soon."
"Leave it to me if it's too much for you."
"Don't worry, I can handle it. I'll find you after it's settled."
"OK. And, my parents suggested that our families getting together another day, to name the date of the wedding!"
Wendy was surprised, "Really?"
"After things settled down, let's put it on agenda. Anyway, we've engaged long enough."
"No problem. I'll get it fixed as fast as I can."
"Goodbye then!"
"Bye!"
With the phone hung up, Wendy's face immediately turned gloomy, as if the joy in her eyes never existed.
"Alright, Blair. You were in my way! We would see!"
...
The Stanton Group.
As soon as Blair arrived, everyone in the company was gossiping around. She couldn't help but run anxiously to the President's office.
Her father was talking to several higher-ups in the office. Seeing Blair coming, Josh dismissed them.
As they left, Blair closed the door and looked at him nervously.
"Dad, people are saying that the Munn Group is suing us. Is that true?"
Josh gave her a scolding right in the face.
"You idiot, we've always got along well with the Munns. And that's what you did? Broke with Wendy and even posted those things online? "
Blair grumbled, "Wendy did it first! She said that I was cheating!"
"And you didn't?" Josh rebuked bluntly, "What is done by night appears by day. You could just turn a deaf ear!"
"I had to fawn on her all the time. I'm done with it!"
"Good for you! You're done with her. Now, the Stanton Group is involved!"
Blair didn't know what to say.
Blair's silence brought him even more anger.
"You promised me that there would be no risk at all to cooperate with the Munn Group. Now, they are suing us! They claimed that we had infringed on their proprietary brands. We must remove all our skin care products and even pay them a large sum of money! See? The Stanton Group is done too! " Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Blair was dumbfounded.
She lowered her head and murmured, "At the time I suggested to work with the Munn Group, you said that this was a once in a lifetime opportunity. Now that things changed, I am the one to be blamed for!"
"Shut up!"
His words filled Blair with grievances.
"Dad, this is already the case. What should we do?"
"Any other option? Hire a lawyer to minimize the losses."
At this moment, the office phone rang.
Josh pressed the button, and the secretary's voice came from outside.
"What is it?"
Secretary replied, "Mr. Josh, the receptionist called just now, saying a lady named Audrey Koch is expecting to visit."
"Audrey Koch? Who's Audrey Koch? No appointments, no!" Josh refused in a bad mood.
Somehow, the "Audrey Koch" caught Blair's ears.
"Wait! Dad, Audrey Koch, would it be that Audrey Koch?"
"Who?"
Blair leaned over to ask on the phone, "Did she mention she's a lawyer from Square Law Firm?"
"Yes, she did."
"Let her in!"
"OK!"
Josh was unhappy to see Blair acting without asking, "Why did you let her in? She's powerful?"
Blair slightly slit her eyes, "If she is that Audrey Koch, then she is powerful indeed."
Before long, with the door being knocked on, Josh said, "Come in."
Audrey slowly walked in with a smile.
"Hello, Mr. Josh. Ms. Blair, it's been a long time!"
Blair didn't want to greet her.
Seeing Audrey, Blair suddenly became alert.
"What are you doing here?" She glared at Audrey.
"Ms. Blair, you don't have to look at me like that. All I did in court was just for my client. I came here today because I know that you have met with some difficulties, and I ... can help you!" said Audrey with a confident smile.
Mr. Josh stared at this girl suspiciously, "You said that you could help?"
"Sure!" Audrey raised her eyebrows, "Not only winning the case but also the R&D patent of the Stanton's Beauty Series! Without a penny!"
