She Was the Treasure All Along novel Chapter 531

Ms. Walker bowed repeatedly as she backed out of the room. The moment the door clicked shut, Giselle grabbed Loyce's hand and pulled her toward a draped curtain. Jean Morgan reached out and pulled the fabric aside, revealing the true four-piece seasonal collection.

The unique designs, combined with the rare, out-of-print fabric, made for an absolutely stunning final product.

Loyce nodded in approval. "The fabric you chose is perfect. It fits the theme flawlessly."

Jean blushed, looking a bit shy. "It's mostly because the material is so incredibly rare. With fabric this good, you could sew it into a pile of rags and people would still call it high art."

Then, recalling Ms. Walker's calculating, sycophantic expression, Jean frowned. "You were completely right, Ms. Lonsdale. Ms. Walker has sneaked people into the tailoring room several times and secretly snapped photos to send to Élégance. Why didn't you just call her out in front of everyone?"

Loyce had known from the start. Bloomberry used to be Alicia Seabrook's domain. Even though Loyce had cleaned house, a few holdovers still had ulterior motives. Ms. Walker, for instance, played the role of the perfectly obedient subordinate while secretly acting as a mole for Alicia.

Loyce offered a faint smile. "I'm using this opportunity to smoke out the last of the traitors. Besides, if I exposed her now, how would the show at Nexus Design go on? Bloomberry's reputation is going to be built by stepping right over Élégance."

This brand had once been bled dry by Seabrook family insiders. It was only fair she bled them in return.

Jean gave her a thumbs-up. "You're seriously amazing, Ms. Lonsdale."

"What about the other new pieces for the retail line?" Loyce asked.

Jean led her to an adjoining room. "The new basics are already in mass production."

"Good." Loyce nodded. "When the time comes, we'll pull all the old Bloomberry inventory from the official website. We're only selling the new collection."

"There's one more issue," Jean noted. "A lot of our physical stores have been shut down. If we reopen, we'll have to do full renovations."

"There's no rush. For now, we're sticking exclusively to online sales. I'll be scouting new locations for the physical storefronts."
