Chapter 254

Some social news made the headlines of the Salem Newspaper.

The Deputy Chief of the police department was suspended due to the ongoing investigation of the
accused crime of embezzlement, bribery, and corruption. As for the arrogant sales advisor, she finally
realized the magnitude of her mistake. She stayed home crying and regretting her actions. Sage bit the
bullet and expanded Norah Jewelry in major cities rapidly. She successfully put Norah Jewelry’s name
back where it belonged-including Adrian James’ store.

Norah Jewelry’s billboard could be seen in major department stores in Nadeem City. Jace Yuriel got
hold of the news at the Yuriel Jewelry management conference.

The Forever and Always line of jewelry from the Yuriel Group was boycotted by netizens because of
Jace’s divorce, and it was put on hold. It caused a dent in their financial performance,

Upon seeing Norah Jewelry’s return to the market and the success of their new collections, the Yuriel
Group felt threatened.

It was as if they were reliving their nightmare.

Almost everyone agreed that they had to stop Norah Jewelry from entering Nadeem City’s markets.

“Mister Yuriel, Norah Jewelry has returned aggressively this time. Unfortunately, they chose to display
their collections at the counters next to ours in all department stores. We can’t allow them to see us as
equals.” “He’s right, Mister Yuriel. It wasn’t easy for us to regain our reputation. We cannot afford to
make any more mistakes.”





Someone with a different opinion chimed in. “Mister Yuriel, I think it’s good that Norah Jewelry is
expanding into Nadeem City. Yes, we were competitors long ago, but we have seen success
collaborating with the Norah Group in the Turf Club project. Why don’t we put more effort into mutual
collaboration?”

Jace kept quiet as he fiddled with a fountain pen in his hands. His sight was set on the engraved ‘Jace’
on the pen.

The fountain pen was one of the gifts he received from Sage. He never cared for it, nor did he
remember when he received it. He found it after returning to Nadeem City. The fountain pen was an
expensive, limited edition version from Mont Blank.

The pen was the cheapest gift of them all. Sage had gifted him numerous valuable gifts, but he never
appreciated them.

He suddenly felt embarrassed by the ten million dollars he offered during their divorce settlement.

At that time, he thought that a farmer’s girl would be cheated by scammers by carrying so much cash
around. He finally knew that it was just a small amount to her.

Jace stared at the engraved ‘Jace’ longingly. He could not help but feel his heart aching.

Meanwhile, they still argued over the same matter in the conference room.
