Lilah shook her head. "That won't work. Given the prevailing negative sentiment, showing our designs will do little to sway public opinion.

People have already made up their minds."

Growing more desperate, Joseph asked, "So what's our move? Do we just stay silent?"

Lilah paused, her eyes scanning her social media feed when a familiar face caught her attention. A plan began to form. "No," she murmured with a hint of a smile. "I have an idea."

Joseph was intrigued, but Lilah chose to keep her cards close to her chest.

Once the call ended, Lilah delved into the Twitter account of a certain female celebrity.

This actress was a direct rival of Maggie, with both vying for similar roles in the film industry, leading to inevitable professional clashes.

Lilah intended to reach out to this actress. In researching her, she was pleasantly surprised to learn this actress was represented by the Harris Group.

This connection could potentially simplify things.

Before leaving the office, Lilah messaged Gerard to arrange a meeting after work.

His response was prompt and affirmative.

Upon reaching the opulent Harris Group headquarters, a gentleman approached her. "Miss Phillips?"

She nodded. "Yes."

"I'm Calvin Bruno, Mr. Harris' personal assistant. He's expecting you, please follow me"

Considering Gerard's typically jam-packed day, the fact that he had set aside time just for her made Lilah feel slightly overwhelmed.

As she walked through the building's grand entrance, the sheer magnificence took her breath away. The floors gleamed, polished to perfection, and one could see their reflection in them. The walls, adorned with high-end tiles, boasted a contemporary and avant-garde aesthetic. It was like stepping into a realm of luxury.

The skyscraper towered with over seventy floors, with the CEO's office situated midway.

After guiding her through the labyrinthine halls, Calvin stopped at a particular door and gestured for her to proceed.

She knocked gently.

“Who's there?" a feminine voice inquired from within.

The door swung open to unveil a woman whose face Lilah instantly recognized.

To Lilah's astonishment, it was the very actress she had been seeking.

The actress surveyed Lilah with a mix of curiosity and caution. “Can I help you?"

"I'm here for a meeting with Mr. Harris."
