Prosperous Marriage: Married to My Brother-in-law-Chapter 674 Noah Reyes Makes A Move (3)_1

The competition in the toy industry is now extremely fierce, and many Toy Companies have been eliminated. Only those with strength can survive by transforming their products. Huayi is almost at the top in our city’s toy industry, and many competitors are eagerly waiting for Huayi to make a mistake, giving them an opportunity to undermine Huayi’s reputation.

Sister Li nodded.

After discussing for a few minutes, Julia returned to her General Manager’s Office. Even though it was time to leave work, with such an incident occurring in the company, she was in no mood to leave work yet. She first called the clients to communicate with them, hoping they could be accommodating about the delivery time.

Fortunately, the clients were rather lenient with their own deadlines. So, after receiving a personal call from Julia and talking for a moment, they agreed to a one-day delay for the delivery. This gave Julia and her team enough time to resolve the customs hold-up.

After putting down the phone receiver, Julia breathed a small sigh of relief.

No matter if it’s Noah Reyes’s doing or not, as long as he doesn’t resort to truly unscrupulous means, I think I can still handle it.

"Pleasant Goat..."

Just after putting down the phone receiver, her cell phone rang again.

The caller ID showed it was the manager of the main Gourmet Soup Dumpling Store.

Julia’s heart inevitably sank.

Rachel’s incident from yesterday still weighed heavily on her mind. Hansen Ruiz was still dealing with the aftermath, and the police were investigating. Before going to work this morning, she had also called Rachel, who said that due to yesterday’s incident, her fresh market retail business was a bit slower than usual today. Fortunately, the media reported it as intentional poisoning by someone else; otherwise, Rachel’s business would have plummeted.

It couldn’t be my Gourmet Soup Dumpling Store’s turn today, could it? Glades clearly said he’d dealt with it.

"This is Julia."

She pressed the answer button and spoke warmly.

"President Lan, I don’t know what happened today, but all twelve Chain Stores have received customer complaints. They’re saying our dumplings are unhygienic. The filled dumplings allegedly had flies and even sand mixed into the filling. I don’t know if the customers are deliberately causing trouble, but our staff personally ate today’s dumplings and also found sand and flies. The customers are causing a commotion, demanding compensation. Some have even complained to the Health Department, claiming that because we’re a Chain Store under the Valence Group, we disregard health standards and bought our food hygiene certificates."

Julia’s hand holding the phone tightened.

It really was a food safety issue.

It wasn’t poisoning, but these hygiene issues were serious enough to affect the Gourmet Soup Dumpling Store’s business.

"Okay, I understand. I’ll be there right away." After saying this, she hurriedly hung up, picked up her wallet again, and walked out of the office.

When she opened the office door, she saw Glades Horne approaching.

"Julia, are you busy today? Still at the company at this hour?" Glades Horne said with a light smile, striding over to stand before her, his gaze resting softly on her.

"Glades, my Gourmet Soup Dumpling Store has received customer complaints—food hygiene issues again," Julia stopped and, without hiding anything, told Glades Horne about the situation.

I can handle these matters myself, but it’s probably better to leave investigating who’s behind this to Glades Horne. If I try to investigate myself, I can only rely on the police. Besides, if Noah Reyes is behind this, the police will likely find it difficult to track him down anyway.

Glades Horne frowned.

I dealt with Orlando Evans, so I thought everything was settled. Why are things still going wrong? Could it really be Noah Reyes this time? Could Orlando Evans have been used by him? Was Orlando Evans just a decoy? Is Noah Reyes making the real move now?

"Also, our company shipped out six containers today, but they were stopped at customs. They said the deburring of the products wasn’t done properly, so they couldn’t pass. This has never happened before," Julia said seriously, recounting all the troubling events of the day to Glades Horne.

"I’ll check it out," Glades Horne said in a deep voice.

Then he gently put his arms around her shoulders and said, "Let’s eat first."

"But the Gourmet Soup Dumpling Store is waiting for me to handle things," Julia protested, though she let him lead her.

After leaving the Office Building, Glades Horne firmly guided her into his car and instructed the Bodyguards to drive to the Emperor hotel.

"Glades."

Turning to her, his dark eyes firmly fixed on her slightly anxious expression, Glades reached out and gently caressed her pretty face. "When you encounter problems, you must stay calm," he said. "Don’t rush, don’t panic, and don’t get flustered, or you’ll easily fall into the enemy’s trap. Right now, the enemy is lurking in the shadows, waiting to see you flustered. If you remain composed, at least they won’t get the satisfaction of the drama they’re hoping for."

His large hand then gently slid down and rested on her belly, pressing lightly. His tone softened, "Work is important, but your health is more important. Only when you’re well-fed will you have the strength to deal with them. Julia, no matter what, you must always prioritize your health. Only then can you work effectively."

After meeting his gaze for a moment, Julia nodded emphatically. She acquiesced to his wishes and decided to eat before dealing with the issues at the Gourmet Soup Dumpling Store.

After sending an urgent notice to the entire company, Adele Horne stepped out of the Office Building, just in time to see her elder brother leaving with her sister-in-law. She knew her elder brother had come to take her sister-in-law for a meal.

Even after so many years of marriage, the affection between her brother and sister-in-law was still as strong as when they were newlyweds.

Standing at the entrance of the Office Building, Adele watched as the Rolls-Royce disappeared from view, and without realizing it, a hint of envy crept into her eyes.

When will I find a man who loves me as much as my elder brother loves his wife? I’m twenty-six, and I haven’t even truly dated yet. Still, I have a son who’s over three years old.

With her age, her appearance, and her family background, it would be extremely easy for her to get married if she wanted to. She had changed and was no longer as arrogant and unreasonable as before. Her transformation was evident to everyone, and many men had fallen for her. However, while they were willing to accept her, they were somewhat resistant to Billy. Some would verbally feign indifference but clearly cared deeply. They pursued her without her consent, already planning how many children they’d have after marriage and how to raise them to be successful—all without a single mention of Billy’s future.

Billy, named to signify her lack of regret in keeping him.

Therefore, Billy was her second life. If no one was truly willing to accept both her and Billy, she would not get married.

That man... Billy’s father. Where could he be now? What was his purpose in leaving that necklace behind all those years ago? Why hasn’t there been any sign of him after all these years?
