Questions bubbled in her mind, but she still needed to clean up this mess. Following the trail of her footprints, Addie navigated through the labyrinth of the grand Harper mansion, and finally arriving at the door of Elizabeth.

What on earth could this woman be doing in Elizabeth's quarters? Especially considering the she rarely resided here and had very few belongings within.

But Elizabeth was particular about her possessions, especially her blueprints, which were so precious that even a fleeting glimpse was considered too much of a luxury.

And then Addie remembered the blueprints she'd seen Chloe holding earlier. Had Elizabeth not informed her about the taboo? She had dared to enter Elizabeth's room?

Staring at the vacant room and the rag in her hand, Addie gritted her teeth, a plan forming in her mind.

When Robin returned, he found his father slumped in the living room sofa with a look of displeasure etched on his face. Hands folded in front of her with head bowed, Addie portrayed an image of sincere humility.

“What happened?" Robin asked, approaching.

As Addie looked up at him, she quickly replied, "This afternoon, Ms. Summers barged in here and took away all the housemaids.’

Robin narrowed his eyes, “You're saying she just showed up to take our staff? Addie, she's a formidable businesswoman. She wouldn't waste her time on trivial matters."

As he mused, sinking into the sofa, Addie's panicked expression didn't escape his sight. “Tell me, why did she come here?” Robin asked.

Addie shook her head, "I honestly don't know. I was directing the maids to clean because they were careless, and in the middle of it, she just barged in.”

"Just like that?" Robin interrupted Addie, growing impatient. Addie shuddered and quickly lowered her head.

Suddenly, she remembered something and quickly blurted out, “I recall being puzzled when she came here without meeting Mr. Presley and went straight to Mrs. Norwood-Harper's room.”

Robin's furrowed brows tightened at Addie's words as he sank deeper into his thoughts, his eyes thoughtful.

Addie, not understanding, quickly confirmed, "Yes, I saw her coming down from upstairs with some blueprints. I knew how much Mrs. Norwood-Harper treasured them."

A slow smirk spread across Robin's face, “I see”

His cryptic words left Addie perplexed. But now wasn't the time for that. Presley was fuming.

“Why are you in this state?" Presley finally spoke, his voice cold. Addie’s eyes welled up with tears as she wiped them away.

Addie said, "Sir, all the maids have grown unruly since Marina left. They're careless, and when I scolded them, they ganged up on me. Just then, Ms. Summers came, promising them a new salary and they attacked me."

Presley scoffed, "She dares to cause a ruckus in the Harper's Mansion!"

Addie sobbed harder, “Sir, I've always had the Harper family's best interest at heart. To be humiliated by an outsider, it's unbearable.”

Presley's face darkened, "She hasn't even settled her accounts with us, and she dares to make a scene at our home.”

Before he could finish, Chloe's face appeared on the television screen. Clad in the same outfit she wore when she came to the Harper's Mansion, she was followed by the former Harper housemaids.

Chloe said, "Thank you for your interest in Starlight International. ‘The Queen’ is confirmed to start shooting in a month. All costume designs are ready. We're just waiting for the final products. Today, I've seen the costume designs. I believe you'll all love ‘The Queen’ and the stunning costumes. Stay tuned!"

The reporters immediately pounced, "Ms. Summers, since you have the designs, can you show us one to whet our appetite?"

Chloe smiled, "I'm afraid I can't do that. These designs are confidential. If leaked, there could be many problems. I apologize."

Although disappointed, the reporters understood. After all, there were many out there who would stop at nothing for money.

But then, Chloe pulled out a blueprint and revealed it to the reporters, "In gratitude for your constant support of Starlight International, I'm more than happy to give you a sneak peek. Besides, I have faith, the final product will certainly surpass any sketch."

The reporters snapped photos frantically, their words keeping pace with Chloe's.

"We certainly know. Ms. Summers, you've always been a trendsetter, always imitated and never surpassed."

“Absolutely right! After all, a knockoff can never replace the real deal. We believe that your clothing line will make waves worldwide."

Chloe chuckled, but nodded unabashedly, "Indeed. There's no better design out there, and our craftsmanship is truly one-of-a-kind, absolutely precious.”

Watching Chloe say these words on TV, someone clapped enthusiastically, "My daughter-in-law sure knows how to sweet talk!"
