The Spare Wife

Chapter 655 Unconventional Competent Woman 

Abigail nodded in agreement. Then, she took out her tablet and showed her design to Daniel. “What do you think of this? If it’s just for pre-sale, do you think it will have higher sales than the failed one?”

This design was created while she was staying with Alice. Originally, she had planned to release it during a major event, but she had no choice but to bring it out to save the situation now.

When Daniel saw the design, his eyes were immediately drawn to it.

He couldn’t help taking a few more glances at it and finally bit his lip. He pondered for a moment before saying, “You’re right. This design would be extremely popular if it’s for pre-sale.”

“It was originally meant to be given priority to Fairy Meadow. You should be aware that Fairy Meadow is a subsidiary under L.Moon, so I wish to give them the best option I have. Unfortunately, L.Moon is currently in trouble, so I have no choice but to use this design to make up for it. However, I spent a long time personally designing this, and the design fee I charged your company for the previous drawing was pretty low. You know what I mean, right?” Abigail propped her chin and proposed to Daniel.

Little did she know, her unintentional action made his heart race.

“I understand. Whatever you want in return…” Daniel uttered while looking at her. Even though his mind was in chaos because of her, his rationality was still intact.

“L.Moon will take 2% of the sales. If that’s not acceptable, I can give you another design,” Abigail said straightforwardly.

“Alright. I’ll give you one week to come out with the samples, and they should be available in all sizes!”

Daniel stated.

“All sizes? I recall that Charm is a brand that caters to women who are fit. Fairy Meadow is the one that specializes in different sizes. Are you trying to take advantage of my business now?” Abigail sat up straight, her smile tinged with sarcasm.

Daniel felt ashamed because of her words. He did want to seize the market for different sizes. Fairy Meadow served women of all sizes and made a fortune in this market, but unfortunately, Charm didn’t have an outstanding designer like Abigail.

He merely mentioned it to see if she would agree. Now, it seemed that she wasn’t just putting on airs.

“What if I said I’m not?” Daniel asked her.

“You can get the size that fits your market. Only L.Moon has various sizes and styles to accommodate different body types. Moreover, this is something that L.Moon will not sell at any price,” Abigail stated while shrugging her shoulders. “Sorry, Mr. Sawyer.”

“No problem. I’ll decide on the 2% commission with you once I see the finished product.” Daniel now understood that Abigail was a cunning businesswoman.

The smile on her face faded slightly. “No. You’re making the decision today. I will get my staff to get the commission contract ready and will send it to your email.”

Daniel looked at Abigail, his gaze turning cold as well

No matter how beautiful or charming a woman was, it was worthless when it came to interests.

“L.Moon was the party who made the mistake. Instead, you’re putting pressure on me. Isn’t this inappropriate?” He picked up the coffee next to him and drank it slowly.

Abigail raised an eyebrow. “But I, as L.Moon’s most outstanding designer, have provided you with a solution. Shouldn’t you be grateful? If it were another company, the profits you earn from this design

alone would be enough to cover the expenses of filing a lawsuit. Perhaps, even more than enough.”

What she said was true.

Daniel knew very well that this was how Abigail operated. She hadn’t come up with any new designs for almost a year, and her fans were constantly lamenting on Instagram. Now that she had come up with such an excellent design, her fans would still buy it even if it couldn’t fit.

The popularity of a top design in the women’s fashion industry was not just for show.

“I can’t give you an immediate must discuss it with the higher-ups.” Daniel came with a mission.

The higher-ups in Charm treated L.Moon’s mistake as a good opportunity. If L.Moon couldn’t resolve it, they could market it, criticize L.Moon, and then take over their position.

L.Moon had been the leader in the women’s fashion industry for too long. Even insignificant brands wanted to bring it down and take its place..

Initially, the public speculated whether Abigail had run out of ideas after not coming up with any designs for so long.

Now, however, it seemed like she had been honing her skills.

“Mr. Sawyer, you’ve been in charge of the company for six months, yet you still can’t make decisions on your own?” Abigail asked him.

Her words provoked him. “Miss Quinn, every company has its own way of operating. Isn’t it inappropriate for you to say that?”

“I’m busy and don’t have time to waste on you. If you want to collaborate with L.Moon, show some sincerity. I wouldn’t give you this attitude if it were another designer’s work. However, this is my work,

so think carefully before you speak.”

As an award-winning designer from abroad, other brands would fight to have her designs. It was almost a given.

Daniel merely led Charm for half a year. How could he not be aware of his position?

“Alright. Go ahead and draft the contract,” Daniel compromised.

Abigail’s negotiation skills were so strong that she took control of the situation right from the start.

Daniel realized that he was completely passive this time.

“Well then, thank you, Mr. Sawyer. Could you please handle the rumors and gossip spread online as well?” Abigail stood up, intending to leave.

“The dishes haven’t been served yet…” Daniel reminded, secretly hoping that Abigail would accompany him for a meal.
