Chapter 178

Before Sarah could finish her words, Anna was already annoyed at her actions. “Why did you run? Didn’t I ask you

to stroll over and take a casual look? You looked like you were going to steal something. What if they returned and

bumped into you?”

Sarah waved her hands. “They won’t be back.”

Confused, Anna blurted out, “What?”

Her hands clasped on her knees, Sarah panted for some time before she resumed talking. “They are sold out. Not

one item was left.”

The news shocked Anna, and her eyes widened. “What did you say? They are really sold out?”

Nodding, she was shocked by the sight as well. Even though it was her guess to begin with, she never took it

seriously because the possibility of selling out on the first day was close to nil. She recalled the opening day of

Anna’s studio when they had sold about five items. Back then, Anna even thought that it was a decent result.

How could Olivia’s studio sell out within half an hour?

Anna stumbled onto the sofa. Although the billboard ads across the city were indeed good marketing for Olivia, the

speed at which the items sold out was mind-boggling.

“How many items did they prepare?” She asked numbly.

Sarah answered, “They had at least twenty items on their mannequins, but the total amount of products is

definitely more than whatever is on the mannequins. Anyway, there’s nothing left on the mannequins.”

Anna’s soulless eyes wandered over to the studio across the street. She recalled that she had prepared about forty

pieces of work for her studio opening. Judging by Olivia’s grand opening, Olivia must have had more than twenty

pieces in stock.

Olivia showed no mercy.

...

At the hotel, the banquet was nearing an end. As the host, Olivia had to go around and toast the guests. Although

she was a good drinker, two hours of toasting the individuals made her tipsy. Her footsteps were unsteady,

whereupon she lost her coordination and almost toppled over. Thankfully, someone grabbed her at that moment. In

a moment of panic, she turned around to look at her lifesaver before breaking into a smile. “Eugene?”

Eugene was frustrated. “I know you’re a heavyweight, but you can’t go on like this. It’s fine to down a glass at each

table, but you can’t toast every single guest!”

Her cheeks flushed and her gaze hazy; she squinted her eyes into a crescent shape with a smile. “I’m happy!”

He took her arm and pampered her, saying, “I know you’re happy today. Leave the rest to me. Please take a seat.”

She fired back, “No. I can’t be unfair. There’s only one table left. I can do it!”

“What if I toast them on behalf of you? Is that fine?” Eugene wanted to reach a compromise.

Olivia blinked her eyes at him in the middle of a daze and shook her head. “No.”

Eugene frowned. “Why not? I’m one of the stakeholders.” Why did she have to keep him at arm’s length?

Olivia knitted her brows in response and sternly reasoned, “You will have to drive later.”

Upon hearing that, Eugene was defeated. “That’s not a problem. I’ll have Curtis pick us up later.”

She nodded in approval. “Well, that works.”

He found it frustrating and funny that she was reluctant to take his advice.

Leading her to the final table, he noticed that the guests were all close acquaintances. Due to their close

relationships, everyone could tell that Eugene was ready to toast on behalf of Olivia.

Therefore, those who did not plan to drink insisted on toasting Olivia for fun.

The first one to joke around was Marcus. Stealing a look at Eugene, he raised his glass at Olivia with a smile. “Olivia,

you’re the boss because it’s your opening day. I’ll toast you. I’m not going to repeat the cliche well wishes because I

know that your business will do well. I shall wish you good companionship and happiness.”

She beamed at him. “Thanks, Marcus.” The next second, she lifted her glass in an attempt to down the alcohol.

Seeing that, Eugene grabbed her glass and explained, “Olivia had too much to drink. I’ll take this for her.”

Marcus smiled slyly. “Hey, that’s against the rules! I know that you hold stakes in the studio business, but you’re

different from Olivia. You can drink on her behalf, but you’ll have to do double!”
