Chapter 1023
Sandy giggled, "But my allowance has been going up since I was little, so don't be mad, bro. Next time, I'll talk to Dad and ask him to give you a raise too!" Seeing Angelo's face filled with sorrow and frustration, Sandy casually patted him on the shoulder. "Bro, I'm off to spend some money! You take your time here."
With that, Sandy hummed a little tune and bounced away cheerfully.
Meanwhile, in Devonport-
"In the past few days, advertisers from S Corporation have been flocking to us. Now that their stars are on a collective break, we can snatch up some of their endorsements. Plus, we'll gobble up the resources they hold within a month."
Griffin reported the current situation in detail from across the table.
"Does Sophie really have no countermeasures?"
"There are," Griffin replied calmly. "Reece has been working around the clock lately. Sophie's trying to use Reece to turn the tide, but it's clearly not working."
"Reece is the pillar of S Corporation. Sophie can only rely on Reece to secure those high-end brand endorsements. Since she doesn't care for the smaller ones, let's take them all."Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
Elodie, resting her chin on her hands, said, "Just as I said, swallow them all. Without advertisers and the entertainment industry's endorsements and resources, S Corporation will be an empty shell, unable to last long before running out of funds."
"Aren't you underestimating the competition?"
Griffin said coldly, "I don't think Sophie will just sit by and wait for her doom."
"I don't think so either, but right now, our Reeves Entertainment is at its peak. It's a fact that all the advertisers are coming to us. Sophie can't change that. Or maybe, you should take a look at S Corporation's earnings this month; they don't even come close to ours."
"That commercial street owned by S Corporation brings in huge profits. Even without those endorsements, their power shouldn't be underestimated."
"I was just a step too late in grabbing
that commercial street, but even if it's in Sophie's hands, I'm not worried. She can keep her territory, I've got Burke International. As long as Burke International is in my hands, nothing else matters."
Burke International has been the dominant force in Devonport for years, its network and resources far surpassing those of the up-and-coming S Corporation.
Elodie glanced at a social media post made by Sophie and said indifferently, "A vacation, huh... I bet they won't enjoy it for long."
Seven days later, at a vacation villa overseas-
Colby was applying sunscreen on Sophie's back. The artists had been going wild at the beach these past few days.
Sophie played until she was completely exhausted before agreeing to stop.
For the past year, she had been constantly scheming in Devonport, facing cutthroat corporate battles every day. This was the first time she allowed herself to relax so completely.
"Do you think this counts as a honeymoon?" Sophie asked.
Hearing Sophie's question, Colby gently rubbed her back and said, My idea of a honeymoon involves. traveling the world just the two of us, not bringing a bunch of kids to the beach to build sandcastles."
There was a hint of jealousy in Colby's tone.
Sophie turned around, her body clad in a sexy bikini, and wrapped her arms around Colby's neck. "What? Is someone not enjoying this trip?" "You're so gorgeous, you've definitely added a lot of color to the beaches these past few days."
