Chapter 234: Feeling Jealous When Meeting Your Love Rival
Hayden Downey was startled, “The ST Group?”
“Yes.” Dante Burke turned around and wrote on the small ckboard where he did the design
introduction, “As the scandal of the ST Group’s clothingpany was dredged up in the early years,
their reputation was destroyed and the clothingpany was liquidated in bankruptcy. Then, they
wanted to involve in the clothing industry again, but due to the impact of the previous damage, they
could only name thepany with a name unrted to the ST Group.”
Thinking of it, it was just a way to clear up the rtionship and confuse the public.
Generally, people wouldn’t look into the source origin of thepany when buying stuff. The ST Group
had grasped this point so that its newpany could stand up again in the clothing industry.

Even Hayden didn’t think of this. If it wasn’t for Dante’s reminder, she would have thought that Yi-Pai
Clothing was just a bush leaguepany.
“Even if the ST Group is behind it, we still have to sue them. At least we show them that we are not to
be messed with.”
Hayden frowned.
Even if it was rted to Joseph Beckham, so what? She felt ridiculous that the ST Group would have
privately set up such a cheappany to profit.
Dante raised his brows nomittally, “Whatever. We won’t produce thest batch of clothes again
anyway. They can only copy what we have here out-dated.”
Dante didn’t care about the matter of giarism. It was customary for a person like him not to quarrel
with others over some trivial issues.
But Hayden would never tolerate any wrongdoings. So she immediately instructed her assistant to
have themercialwyer issuewyer’s letter to the fewpanies who involved in the giarism,
as well as Yi-Pai Clothing.
On Friday night, Hayden had a flight to Shanghai to attend a business banquet.
She had a clear sense of purpose for attending it. Among those who came to the banquet, there was
the general manager, East China of Joann Group. Joann Group wanted to customize a batch of staff
uniforms, and he was the one in charge of it. If she could win the bid, then it would be a hundred million
order, and this would be very helpful for Green Lemon Clothing to expand the market in the early stage.
At the banquet, there were many elites of the apparel industry from Shanghai and Nanking.
Hayden was introduced by the editor-in-chief of the magazine Shanghai Lady ‘VV’, Edwina Perez, to
join this party. It was Edison Godfery who introduced Edwina to Hayden before Hayden left Nanking.
Edwina was straightforward, “Mr. Godfery had treated me well before. I knew he was married, just that I
didn’t expect his wife to be so young.”
Hayden just smiled, not to exin much about her rtionship with Edison.
It was not necessary to talk too much about her rtionship with Edison to those unrted ones. And it
was indeed hard to exin too.
Edwina took Hayden around to meet a lot of people in the banquet, and she led Hayden to the general
manager of Joann Group, Bowen Wright, “Mr. Wright, this is Ms. Downey from Green Lemon Clothing
that I mentioned to you on the call.”
Hayden stretched out her hand, “Hello, Mr. Wright, I’m Hayden Downey.”
“Hi.” Bowen shook her hand politely with a natural look.
Edwina must have interacted with Bowen beforehand. Otherwise, he might be asking what was this
Green Lemon Clothing at this moment.
“Mr. Wright, it’s a bit noisy here. How about going over there to talk?”
Hayden took the initiative to talk with Mr. Wright. After all, they were businessmen. Nobody was here to
rx, but just to socialize only. So it was better to go straight to the point.
Mr. Wright readily agreed on it.
Edwina apanied as they headed to the rest area of the banquet hall.
In the corner of the banquet hall, a delicate woman was holding a ss of champagne, staring at
Hayden thoughtfully, feeling gloomy.
“My dear Vi, why are you here by yourself? No one apanies you?”
A man’s voice came from her side.
Vi Kidman turned around and nced at him.
Samuel Shawn, the famousdies’ man in Shanghai, had been chasing after Vi for more than two
years. He was willing to spend money on her, but he used to have many women around him, and Vi
was into Joseph back then. So she didn’t consider him at all.
Just a pastime during her boredom.
And he showed up when Vi was bored. It was him who invited her to today’s banquet. Vi just
finished shooting amercial in Shanghai. She had nothing to do, so she came.
“Yeah.” Vi smiled, “Someone invited me as his date. The party just started, he left me here alone
and went flirting with others. So was I unapanied?”
“Who’s it, being so blind? Could there be anyone prettier than Vi you in this banquet hall?” Samuel
Shawn’s words were so sweet even on scolding himself.
Viughed and then pointed her finger, “There. I think that one over there looks good. Compared to
me, it’s neck and neck.”
“How’s that possible?”
Samuel Shawn took a casual nce, and the moment he saw Hayden, his eyes were fixed on her.
If Vi was described as icy, the woman over there wearing a burgundy neck dress was definitely hot,
with long wavy hair scattering on her shoulders and the mature charm of a young woman with a sense
of innocence too.
Who was this beauty?
Samuel Shawn thought in his heart that she would probably be a young lover brought by some boss.
“It’s so enthralling, right, Mr. Shawn?” Vi joked aside, looking gloomy, “If you like her, it should not be
a problem for you to take her down with your charm, right?”
Samuel Shawn came back to his senses and shook his head, “Forget about it. I’m not ying with fire
to beard the lion in his den. That’s the general manager of Joann Group, Bowen. How would I dare to
mess with the woman with him?”
“No way.” Vi pretended to be puzzled, “That woman is called Hayden Downey. I knew her. She’s
here with the chief editor of VV, Edwina. It seems that Edwina is introducing business to her. I’m afraid
Mr. Wright and her haven’t even met before.”
“Really? A business? What kind of business?”
“A clothingpany, just opened. Hayden Downey was Joseph Beckham’s ex-girlfriend. She
established her ownpany after their breakup. It looks like she has a lot of connections, and she’s
good enough for you.”
Samuel Shawn liked hearing this, and he couldn’t help himself to look again at Hayden, “You said that
she’s Joseph’s ex-girlfriend? Aren’t you too? So? Feeling jealous of meeting your love rival? Want me
to vent your anger?”
“I don’t think so.” Vi took a sip of wine, “I have no interaction with Joseph for a long time. As for
Hayden, I do have some history with her. But I would prefer that Mr. Shawn have a good time tonight
rather than venting my anger.”
Samuel Shawn preferred to be held in high esteem. He was overjoyed as Vi said this, “Don’t worry.
You think of me so much, and I would surely vent your anger as well as enjoying it too.”
