Chapter 91: Chapter 91: VN Brand
"My own brand?" Nora was surprised that the master would suggest such a thing. She was thrilled to be recognized by the master, but also nervous about whether she could succeed.
"Why not? I started my own brand when I was twenty. It was difficult at first, but it gradually got better."
The master had high hopes for her, considering Nora’s many years of practical experience.
She had almost understood the rigid knowledge and theory during this period, mastered everything. What was impossible now?
Nora admitted she was tempted. After thanking the master for her recognition, she stated she would consider it.
"Teacher, does this mean I can too..." Yuna Hughes looked at the master with hopeful eyes, waiting for her to speak.
"Jade, you’re not ready yet. Your skills still need to be refined."
After the master spoke, Yuna Hughes was struck as if by lightning. She never expected the master to respond to her like that.
Your skills need refining? Does that mean Nora is more capable than her?
Feeling muddled, she returned to her room, her face gloomy, lost in thought.
After a while, she took out another cellphone from beneath her bedside table, dialed the number saved inside: "I accept your proposal, but you need to do me a favor before that."
The person on the other end was obviously stunned for a moment, then responded with a satisfied tone.
"Alright."
The two continued chatting for a while, then hung up. Yuna Hughes’s scarlet eyes stared out the window.
Her talents shouldn’t be buried here. Since the master thinks she is less competent than Nora, nobody can blame her for biting the hand that feeds her!
...
After leaving the master’s place, Nora indeed started thinking about it; she wanted to create her own brand!
Selling sachets was only the beginning; she would gradually expand.
After returning home, Jasper Sinclair, upon hearing her idea, expressed his agreement: "If you want to do it, do it boldly. Do you need me to find you a bigger store?"
Jasper had seen Nora’s small shop. When there were too many people, it got crowded. If needed, he could find a store within the Sinclair Family for her.
With the thought in mind, she immediately took action. She registered her own trademark VN online, and from then on, everything she made was not unbranded anymore.
Lily Sloan danced with excitement: "Does this mean I’m hitching myself to a future wealthy woman’s success?"
She had always believed Nora was brilliant, and now it was confirmed, making her feel gratified.
"It’s not that easy. I’m still relying on the wealthy Lily to support me now, aren’t I?"
The two young girls played around, and everything was moving in a positive direction.
After establishing her own brand, her business indeed improved, and sachet sales were much hotter than before.
During this period, she also started her balm business.
Everything was heading in a positive direction until suddenly, a post online stirred up a storm.
The poster claimed that they purchased VN balm and started having allergies once they got home, followed by sores on the allergic areas.
They also posted photos of their arms.
"This isn’t balm; it’s poison! Nobody should be fooled. In severe cases, this stuff can be life-threatening."
VN plunged into a media storm; customers were unsure how to handle the newly purchased balm.
"What should we do, Nora?" Lily Sloan had never encountered such a situation.
The shop received malicious reviews, and their online reputation plummeted.
Previously, due to Master Elaine’s influence, people had high hopes for Nora. But after this scandal, they began withdrawing their support.
