Farewell to Love: The CEO's Desperate Chase novel Chapter 394

Vivienne mulled it over for a moment, then shot off a message to Jack.

Jack read her text and sprang into action.

He steered the conversation online in a few clear directions:

First, he pointed out the double standard: Vivienne hadn’t received a shred of support from The Erickson Group, yet Emilia was happily accepting help from The Glenn Group. Was that fair? Everyone knew Theodore had been pursuing Emilia lately.

Second, he reminded everyone: all Vivienne wanted was a wedding.

Third, he rallied support around Vivienne’s Ultra-Luxury Villa Floral Series.

With these talking points circulating, the mood on social media shifted almost immediately.

Suddenly, sympathy for Vivienne was everywhere.

The top-liked comment read:

“Emilia only stands out because she got The Glenn Group’s endorsement. But Vivienne built everything herself—Vivi’s Whispers, Ultra-Luxury Villa Floral Series—those are her own achievements. What does Emilia have to compare?”

Chaos erupted across the forums.

Emilia scrolled through Vivienne’s counterattack, a faint, indifferent smile on her lips. She’d known Vivienne wouldn’t just sit there and take it.

In their private group chat, Seven was already taking action.

After a moment’s thought, Emilia typed a single line:

“Key point: Protect the consumer. They have the right to choose what they buy, and no one should guilt-trip them over it.”

Seven got right to work.

The main arguments were:

First, Emilia’s partnership with The Glenn Group was above board. She’d won Voice of the Divine fair and square—everyone had seen it. Every design she presented had taken immense effort; nobody had the right to downplay her work.

Second, people should be free to buy what they like without being shamed for it.

The Glenn Group soon issued their own statement, firmly standing with consumers.

At last, the storm online began to calm.

Midnight came and went.

Voting opened for the second day.

Within minutes, the numbers shot up at breakneck speed.

Unlike yesterday’s landslide, Emilia and Vivienne were now neck and neck.

Emilia watched it all unfold.

Vivienne was still a force to be reckoned with.

She’d always known Vivienne would focus her efforts on Vivi’s Whispers, but this Ultra-Luxury Villa Floral Series had always been the secret weapon. It was the project that had catapulted Vivian Floral Atelier into the spotlight and cemented Vivienne’s personal brand.

Even though they both understood that, in terms of actual profits, the Ultra-Luxury Villa Floral Series couldn’t really compare to the others.
