The True Heiress: Legend Mode novel Chapter 20

At this point, there were only three hours left before the launch.

Both the high society and the design world were stunned.

Jumer, who had been completely silent for five years, was suddenly making a move? And with a relatively obscure jewelry division?

"Holy shit! Wasn't Jumer the lead designer at Octy? Why is she suddenly working with the Corrington family?"

"Did she jump ship? Word on the street is the Jaggers couldn't even poach her, and now she's with the Corringtons?"

"Let's get the facts straight. Is this really Jumer's work? There's been a lot of fakes over the years, and Jumer hasn't shown her face in five years. How do we know it's real?"

"It's confirmed! The draft signatures, the style, the color palette—it's all real! Jumer is back!!"

Watching the online reaction, Harrison felt his eyes suddenly grow hot with excitement.

At exactly midnight, the 300 pieces sold out in one second.

This was despite Jumer's work commanding astronomical prices—over five times more expensive than Rhiannon's pieces.

As the first batch sold out, the Corrington family dropped a teaser for the second batch.

The first batch was just a warm-up. The second batch was limited to only 100 pieces, and the price had tripled.

The normally quiet Corrington storefronts were suddenly flooded with customers in the middle of the night, all desperately trying to pre-order the second batch.

Ignoring the time and basic etiquette, several wealthy wives pulled strings to get Gwendolyn's phone number. The ones who were already close to her called her directly.

All night, Gwendolyn's phone was ringing off the hook. It was all for one single reason.

"Can you pull some strings to get me a piece from Jumer's second batch?"

Gwendolyn's neck was cramping as she hung up the phone. Before she could even take a breath, another call came in.

She was just about to answer it when Juno grabbed the phone, ended the call, and powered it off.

Gwendolyn looked at her in confusion.

Juno glanced at the time indifferently. "It's late. You should get some rest."

Under Gwendolyn's bewildered gaze, Juno headed upstairs. Tomorrow, she had to accompany Chuck to a gala.

She sifted through her walk-in closet, only to find nothing suitable for a gala—just everyday clothes.

She pondered for a moment, wondering if she should design a few pieces and start her own clothing brand.
