Marry My Ex’s Uncle After Rebirth by Agatha Barney

Florence’s gaze followed the direction of the voice. Undisguised anger and hatred were evident in her eyes.

Giovanni looked at her defiantly. “Tin sure everyone remembers the conversation between Stephanie and Florencel Stephanie drew all of Florerice’s rough sketches? Maybe it’s the same this time!”

Florence gritted her teeth and wished she could bite his head off, but she knew she had to maintain her dignity in public.

Putting on a pitiful act, she said, “I was admitted into

to the psychiatric hospital for a few days because I was diagnosed with depression. I admit that Stephanie had acted as my vocal double before, but I object to the claims that the rough sketches were her work. I worked day and night to draw those sketches, so I strongly deny her claims. I hope to prove my abilities through this product launch and believe that l lead Fantasy Boutique to soar to greater heights.”

Alicia, the design director, also nodded solemnly. “I can attest that Florence is the owner of these sketches because she and I discussed it before. We had different opinions on a few designs, so we revised them together.”

Alicia had seen the rough sketches and believed that they would be the most popular ones at the event.

She was doing Florence a favor but would get some credit if the sketches trended.

Moreover, she wanted to show her importance in Fantasy Boutique. It was like killing two birds with one stone.

Florence nodded, understanding Alicia’s intention.

They kept the secret to themselves and achieved success together, being friends forever.

Florence looked at Giovanni. “Nice words mean nothing to us. Let’s compete with our abilities

Glovanni sneered, “Ability? You? Careful that you don’t get slapped in the face tonight.”

Florence was speechless.

She hated him with a vengeance. Last time, he exposed her vocal double secret to the reporters, shaming her.

Once again, he intended to humiliate her. He was practically her jinx. She wanted to beat the two to death,

Yet, Florence kept her smile. “It’s too early to deem who’s getting slapped in the face.”

Giovanni raised his chin. “I want you to bow to Stephanie three times if you lose!”

Florence gnashed her teeth in hatred. She thought, “It’s obvious he wants me to bow to Stephanie. Who’s he to demand that of me? He’s dreaming!

is your

Alicia said softly, “Flore, you’ll surely win with this rough sketch. Agree to his challenge, slap Stephanie in the face, and have her bow to you. This i chance to turn things around!”

Florence asked, “What if Stephanie loses?”

Giovanni called Stephanie. “Boss, I dare her to bow to you thrice if you win over her tonight and vice versa if you lose.”

A chuckle came from the other end. “Okay, since you want to see her bow down to me that badly?”

Florence was speechless again.

Giovanni looked at Alicia. “So, will you take up my challenge? You’re probably not confident in Florence’s sketch, so let’s forget it.”

Alicia knew Giovanni was provoking her, but she was not the type to take the bait so easily.

However, she was confident in Florence’s sketch and raised her head arrogantly. “Finet Stephanie needs to bow thrice to me too if she loses, and I’ll do

Giovanni, of course, insted Stephanie. “Mark your words. All media personnel, remember their promise, in case they go back on it.”

Florence and Alicia didn’t know what to say.

He sounded as if they would surely lose

At the same time, a man’s voice sounded. “Three bows are nothing. Let’s go big and put 30 bows on the line!”

Everyone turned to the speaker, looking unrestrained in a suit. It was Douglas.

Douglas wrapped his arms around Florence’s waist. “Sorry, I’m late.”

Fear washed over Florence at the sight of him. She would feel pain all over her body.

She forced a smile. “You’re just in time.”

Douglas looked at Giovanni with disdain. “How about it? 30 instead of three?”

Glovanni laughed. “You’re taking part, too?”

“Of course!” Douglas said smugly, “The three of us will bow 30 times each if Stephanie wins, and she’ll bow 30 times to each of us, 90 times in total if she

Giovanni sneered, “Quit daydreaming!”

Looking at the crowd, Florence smiled. “I don’t want to humiliate anyone. I just want to prove my ability.”

She held Douglas’ arm and walked toward the exhibition center’s entrance, with Alicia and the design team following behind her haughtily.

The netizens were shocked as it was live streamed.

One netizen commented: [This year’s summer product launch is so exciting!]

Another commented: [Yeah, I really want to be there in person and see who will lose in the end.]

A netizen wrote: [Florence, of course. Is that even up for debate? She even used Stephanie’s voice, much less Stephanie’s rough sketches. It’s probablyThis belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Another comment read: [The commenter above is still covering for Florence. Your Flore has exposed her true color. Her nude photos are plastered everywhere!]

Florence’s supporter retorted: [So what? They’re already engaged!]

A netizen argued: [Have you lost your mind? Florence stole Douglas from Stephanic while they were engaged!]

Another netizen commented: [Are you crazy? You’re the man stealer then when your boyfriend or husband cheats on youll

For a moment, the barrages of comments covered the entire screen of the livestream.

Stephanie and Florence’s fans began to quarrel. Meanwhile, Horace and Matilda couldn’t sit still any longer as they watched the livestream.

Matilda gnashed her teeth in anger. “This d a m n Stephanie is Flore’s final”

Horace narrowed his eyes. “Prepare yourself. Regardless of whether Stephanie wins or loses, call and threaten her as soon as the competition ends. Use Dad as bait to get her to admit that she plagiarized Flore’s rough sketch and her previous accusation against Flore is also slander. Do you understand?”

Matilda was displeased. “I hate hearing you talking about Stephanie winning. Flore will surely succeed in the product launch.”

曲

Horace nodded with a smile. “That’s right. We’ll just wait and see Stephanie bow 90 times.”

Excitement filled Matilda’s eyes. She would’ve gone to the scene if she didn’t have to steer Austin later. “I really want to see the look on Vincent’s face when Stephanie bows. Douglas wouldn’t be kicked out of the Fletcher family if it weren’t for him. I’ll have Flore teach them a lesson tonight!”

Vincent, who was about to be taught a lesson, was having a meeting in the conference room,

He kept glancing at his watch and thought, “It’s almost six. The product launch is about to start soon.

“That’s all for today’s meeting,” he said.

Zane immediately stepped forward and helped Vincent leave the room.

An attendee was confused. “Why did Mr. Fletcher leave? This bit is very important.”

A female director waved her phone. “Tonight, six clothing companies and design studios will have their product launch in the exhibition center. As chief designer of Starlight Design Studio, Mr. Fletcher’s fiancée will attend the event. Mr. Fletcher’s mind has strayed a while ago!”

The attendee replied, “We would’ve gone to the venue if we had known.”

The female director shook her head. “Better not. Mr. Fletcher’s fiancée, Stephanie, is putting a lot on the line against her sister, Florence. Whoever loses will bow 30 times to the winner. We’ll probably be fine with supporting her at the scene if Stephanie wins, but if she loses, we’ll probably have to gorge

our eyes out!”

Suddenly, everyone felt a sharp pain in their eyes.

The female director smiled. “However, we can watch it on livestream.”

The crowd immediately left the room. They quickly searched for the livestream as they walked,

Meanwhile, Vincent, in the car’s back seat, also pulled up the livestream. Seeing Giovanni’s provocation, Vincent immediately knew Stephanie had permitted it. He mused, “It looks like the product launch will be eventful later.

Models used the large runway in the exhibition center to showcase their clothes.

Every year, netizens would vote for the fashion brands participating in the product launch. Voters had their real names verified. Therefore, the possibility of multiple voting was ruled out. The entire process was very!

yfair.

Notizens would choose six brands, and two among the six would be selected to participate in the International Gokien Finger Contest in September. This was held every year as part of the product launch conference, so the event was very important. It could be likened to a direct path to the international competition.

The brand that would emerge as the winner would depend on the on-site audience’s votes. After all, the audience consisted of esteemed figures with big names. Hence, no one would cast a biased vote to tarnish their reputation.

The participating escapanies and studios each had their own changing rooms for their models so that there wouldn’t be any interference with each

other.

Julianna glanced at Stephanie, who was helping the models change their clothes. “Florence and the others are second, while we’re last. It’ll probably be

mess later.”

Stephanie smiled. “Do you want to see them bow?”

Julianna raised her eyebrow. “Of course, I can’t wait!”
