Cayenne read the information that Tristan sent her regarding Chiffon and so far, she didn't find any glaring issues related to them. The only worrying thing she found from the report was the fact that the company had been facing a lot of financial troubles since it was founded.
Although Chiffon was able to survive these difficulties before, this time around might be different. In the past, people would often rely on word of mouth that their customers would spread. However, today's generation relies more on the internet, especially things that celebrities endorse.
Chiffon's founder was very traditional, and he didn't like to use celebrities to advertise their products. In the end, more and more imported products were able to gain a foothold in the country, and people liked them better because of the personalities that endorsed them.
Somehow, Cayenne felt that Chiffon was fortunate enough to fall into the hands of Sabrina's friend – Meridith Chiangco.
Unlike her grandfather, she wasn't so traditional when it came to business. Whenever an opportunity showed up, she would grab it and make use of it to the fullest.
After reading everything, Cayenne called the contact on the business card that Sabrina gave her yesterday. It was Meridith's personal calling card.
Seeing the unknown number on the screen, Meredith didn't pick up the call immediately. She was wondering who was calling her directly because all of her official business calls should have been handled by her secretary.
Only family and friends knew of her personal contact information.
On the third ring, she finally picked up her phone.
"This is Meridith speaking."
"Hi. Uh, this is Cayenne Dumrique calling. I'm calling about - "
"Wait! Wait!"
Cayenne was astounded at the sound coming from the other end of the line. She was sure she heard some glass shattering in the background.
"Are you alright?" Cayenne asked, a little bothered that she might have called the woman at the wrong time. "I can call back if it's inconvenient right now."
As soon as she reached the topmost floor, she saw Elena working with a deep frown on her face. She was talking to someone over the phone while typing something on her computer as fast as she could.
But when she looked up and saw Cayenne, her eyes brightened, and she waved her hand.
Cayenne just smiled and placed the cake she had brought for Elene and Tristan on the table.
Of course, she got something for her husband, too.
Stefan was busy reviewing some documents regarding the latest project that his company took when the door to his office was pushed open.
"Hon,"
Stefan was startled for a moment, yet when he saw his wife's face, a wide smile appeared on his face. He really thought he was just hallucinating from missing her so much.
Putting down his pen on his desk, he walked over to her and hugged her for a minute. He just really wanted to breathe in her scent to satisfy himself.
"How was the meeting?" he asked without letting her go.
"It was okay. It went according to my wishes. I just need to pass the probationary period of two months. I don't really mind."
"It's funny how coincidences work," Stefan muttered with a faint laughter in his words. "Someone just called Elena regarding an endorsement work for you. It turned out to be from one of the competitors of Chiffon. They want you so badly. However, you signed with Chiffon already."
"I bet they just want to be on your good side."
"I thought so. Besides, we don't really use their products at home. What's the point of endorsing something we don't like?"
Unknowingly, this other brand that they refused would be a great challenge to Cayenne in the future.
