Chapter 278
Everyone became serious and stopped talking.
The owner of the factory was a middle-aged businessman who seemed to be very shrewd. He glanced
at Andrew awkwardly and said, “What’s the matter, Mr. Cooper? What’s wrong with these clothes?’’
Andrew widened his eyes and said, “Don’t you notice that? Look at how the lapels on this one are
messed up! Plus, the stitching is extremely poor. If we sell such clothing, it will be a disgrace to our
company. You’re humiliating us!”
The owner became even more awkward.
Anna quickly yanked Andrew’s sleeve and said, “Okay, fine. Allow me to speak with the boss.”
“Hello, young lady. I’ve never seen you before.” The boss pushed his glasses up and sized Anna up.
Anna had never been here before because it used to be the designers’ task to come to the factory.
Mona, who was standing beside them, introduced Anna to him, “This is Miss Anna Gabriel, the
chairman of the Gabriel Group.”
The boss exclaimed in surprise, “Oh! You’re the chairman? | have no idea that you turned out to be so
young. Please forgive me for ignoring you just now.”
“It’s alright,” Anna said. Then she told Andrew to step aside and then began talking with the boss.
“Sorry, Andrew was a bit aggressive. The client asked us to deliver the clothes in a month, so we didn’t
dare to make a mistake. Please accept our apologies.”
The boss also appeared embarrassed and said, “Sorry, it’s entirely our fault. | was away on business in
Leeds the other day. You know, | just got off the plane. And | didn’t anticipate such a serious problem.”
“Well, you’re a reasonable person. Besides, you know how important this contract is. If you do your
best in the first place, you won’t have to rework the products. Otherwise, it would be a huge waste of
time and money.”
Anna pointed out a finger before saying, “We will recalculate the money if you finish early. I’ll give you
5% more money if you can finish a day early and the clothes are of good quality. It is 10% if it is two
days.”
“If it’s 10 days, then it’s…” said the owner as he continued counting.
He then came to a halt and smiled at Anna. It was clear that he was well-versed in the rule.
Anna knew that if she wanted to do business with someone, she should just negotiate the terms with
them directly.
In fact, Andrew’s ferocity and her gentleness were part of a plan they had discussed on the road.
Otherwise, the factory owner would think they were idiots that were easy to fool with.
It was already evening when they left the factory, and then Anna went home.
She dropped Andrew and Mona off at their places on the way. Since one of Anna’s villas was vacant,
she agreed to let Andrew stay there.
Mona exclaimed when they arrived at Andrew’s door, “Andrew, can | study design with you?”
Anna looked in her rearview mirror and saw Andrew furrow his brow and inquire, “Huh? Why?”
“Well, because | like it.”
“You can’t just do whatever you want because it’s fun. Have you ever studied clothing design before?”
“No,” Mona looked embarrassed.
Mona had always been very calm. However, it was the first time that she looked uneasy.
Andrew then walked out of the car and shut the door.
Then Anna drove away from Andrew’s place.
While driving, Anna teased,”! think it’s a great idea to learn design from him. But, you know, he’ll only
think about design. And you might not get what you want if you’re to start a relationship with him by
using learning clothing design from him as an excuse.”
Mona froze for a moment, and then quickly explained herself, “Oh! That’s not what | meant, Anna. |
really want to learn from him.” Anna gripped the steering wheel and looked ahead. Then she said, “So,
this is more difficult than | anticipated. Most of these artists, you know, are very condescending. As a
result, they will look down on their weaker peers. If you want to learn design from him, it will be difficult.
I’m not sure if he’d be willing to teach you. Even if he agrees to do so, he may say some nasty things to
you.”
“Well, | don’t care about that. If he agrees to be my teacher, I’ll be extremely grateful.” Mona sighed and
said.
Anna figured that Mona was serious about that at that point.
She stated, “Huh? Really? Do you really want to learn from him? If you really meant it, | can convince
Andrew to be your teacher for you.”
Mona declined it immediately and then said, “Oh, thanks. But, you don’t have to do that. I’ll just figure it
out on my own. If you persuade him, he will undoubtedly say yes. But, he may be hesitant to do so.”
Since Mona didn’t want to do it, Anna said nothing more. Besides, she didn’t know if Andrew, who had
an eccentric temper, would agree to her request.
Before returning home, Anna went to the nearby supermarket and bought a large bag of fresh
potatoes.
When she got home, she discovered that the lights were turned off. Anna thought it was strange that
she couldn’t find the switch in the dark.
The switch was right next to the door, and she could usually reach it in a fraction of a second.
When she reached out, however, she felt something cold and soft. Then, the door behind her slammed
shut.
Anna screamed and immediately drew back her hand. At the same time, the plastic bag she was
holding fell to the floor.
The echo of Anna’s scream and the sound of potatoes falling on the floor made the room appear even
more terrifying.
Anna was terrified and searched for her phone while yelling Wayne’s name.
She assumed Wayne would be home by now, but no one was there.
The moonlight shone through the thin curtains on the floor, creating an eerie atmosphere in the living
room.
At that precise moment, Anna heard someone walking out of Matthew’s room.
“Wayne, is that you?” Anna inquired, alarmed.
Just as she finished speaking, she noticed a man in the doorway holding a chainsaw. Plus, there was
scarlet liquid on the floor dripping from the chainsaw.
Anna recalled some horror movie episodes at that point and remembered the wanted notice she had
seen downstairs the day before.
The wanted notice said that a serial killer had recently escaped from prison. As a result, the
Birmingham police warned everyone to stay alarmed and contact them if they found someone
suspicious.
Anna widened her eyes and shouted, “Matthew! Tammy!”
The man then slowly walked out of the room. Anna picked up a potato from the floor and held the door
handle with her other hand.
Despite her fear, she tried hard to remain calm.
Maybe Wayne and the kids aren’t home and nothing had happened. Or, perhaps this man has just
broken into my house…
At that moment, the man walked out of the room.
Anna immediately threw the potato in her hand at that man, opened the door, and ran for her life.
Then Anna heard a muffled grunt and a chainsaw falling to the ground. The sound of that loud bang
haunted her like a ghost.
