Chapter 827: Chapter 827: Perfume Taken Off the Shelves
Xaviera Evans seemed to not notice the gloomy faces of everyone and still praised with a smile, “The desserts from this hotel are not bad, do you want to come back here for cake later?”
Caleb Mamet laughed and nodded. The couple acted sweet and loving, completely ignoring the Drew family’s feelings.
Sir Drew’s face was terrifyingly gloomy, and he roared, “Caleb!”
“Mr. Drew, why are you getting angry at Caleb? You should hurry up and figure out why the data suddenly disappeared.”
Sir Drew’s face darkened, his voice cold: “I am talking to Caleb, what does it have to do with you? The disappearance of the data must be caused by someone…”
“Mr. Drew, you lost the bet and now can’t accept your loss?”
Xaviera blinked and sighed helplessly, “Victory and defeat are common in business, whoever wins or loses are unpredictable, even though Boyd Drew lost this time, he still has a chance to win next time if he works harder, he can’t be angry just because he lost once!”
She mimicked Sir Drew’s tone and threw his words back at the Drew family.
Sir Drew was so angry that his head spun, his face twisted and ferocious, panting heavily for a long time before roaring, “Shut up! I hope today’s events have nothing to do with you, or else I…”
“Chairman! We have the results!”
At this moment, Boyd Drew’s assistant hurried in, interrupting Sir Drew’s words, and loudly announcing, “The reason for the data disappearance has been found, actually it was…”
Boyd Drew’s heart trembled. The assistant glanced at him meaningfully, then lowered his head and said word by word, “Painter Mr. Cold Night is suing us for unauthorized use of his paintings on the perfume packaging, the court has accepted the case and contacted the sales channels. After the platform confirmed the authenticity of the case, they have removed the new perfume from the shelves and demanded that we pay five million dollars for the breach of contract.”
“Moreover, all packaging bottles printed with the painting must be completely destroyed, otherwise, Mr. Cold Night will continue to file lawsuits, and the Drew family will not only have to pay huge losses but also suffer damage to their reputation.”
Upon hearing this, the Drew family’s faces were pale and they were sweating cold bullets.
Sir Drew staggered and sat down on a chair, his aged eyes filled with despair. “Boyd, didn’t you say you had already obtained Cold Night’s authorization?”
The Drew Corporation’s perfume packaging used three of Cold Night’s paintings, which made their perfume gain attention, otherwise, they definitely wouldn’t be able to beat Caleb Mamet.@@novelbin@@
Now that Cold Night is suing the Drew Corporation, the news has spread on the internet, and everyone knows the reason behind it. The Drew family’s reputation will plummet.
Sir Drew still had a glimmer of hope in his heart: “Boyd?”
At this moment, Boyd Drew’s mind was blank. He didn’t know where the problem had occurred. He had been to the painting exhibition, found a hacker, and confirmed that Cold Night was dead, with no relatives, and that the copyright could be used at will.
To ensure nothing went wrong, he even specifically sought out two top hackers from the dark web. They also checked the news of Cold Night’s death. So why did Cold Night suddenly reappear and sue the Drew Corporation?
Moreover, he happened to sue the Drew family on the day the pre-sale channel was opened and had the perfume removed from the shelves in the last few seconds, deliberately blowing things up. The only person who could do all this was—
Boyd Drew looked up fiercely at Caleb Mamet, who seemed unconcerned about the matter and still lovingly served food to Xaviera, acting affectionate like nobody else existed.
Because of Boyd Drew’s piercing gaze, everyone involuntarily looked towards Caleb Mamet.
Sir Drew’s eyes were sharp, and Vivian Drew was full of anger, shouting, “Caleb Mamet, it must be you!”
Even with her eyes down, Xaviera could sense the surrounding angry gazes. Amid the questions from the crowd, Caleb continued to tenderly wipe her mouth, then calmly said, “Miss Wendy Drew, you can’t just make wild accusations. Do you have any evidence to prove that I did it?”
Vivian Drew was furious, shouting wildly, “What evidence do we need? It’s obviously you! The new perfume has been announced for pre-sale a month ago. Why didn’t Cold Night sue earlier? He just had to wait until the day the pre-sale channel opened, and remove the perfume in the last few seconds of pre-sale! Can you say that you didn’t do it?”
What do you think?
