That means they're definitely selling them to Mr. Larson at a loss.
“They won't survive much longer if they keep selling at these prices,” Dawn remarked gloomily.
Lacey sighed. “You're right. Even our company would collapse. They're really trying to bring us down with them.”
“This is clearly unfair competition. Let's sue them, Lacey!”
Lacey was at a loss. “Logically speaking, the prices they set shouldn't have anything to do with us. But from a legal
point of view, they've violated the competition law. There are lots of gray areas in this regard, so it may be hard to
determine if they're really guilty. Let's just hope suing them will work.”
Suddenly, Lacey's phone rang.
The woman glanced at the screen. It was a call from Nancy.
As soon as Lacey pressed the answer button, her sister's voice boomed over the phone. “Lacey! Where are you?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhy aren't you in your office?”
“I'm outside running some errands. You sound frantic, Nancy. Did something happen?”
“You bet! This is an emergency! Where are you? I'm coming to see you.”
“No, there's no need. I'll be heading back to the office. See you soon.”
Right after hanging up, Lacey and Dawn hastily made their way back to Linton Group.
On the way there, they both received dozens of phone calls from different branches of Linton Group.
The calls were about how Intercontinental Construction sold their materials at such low prices that the entire Linton
Group was being affected as a result.
Moreover, the oppression against Linton Group through unfair competition was taking place on a nationwide level
and not just in Atheville.
Having been completely unprepared for such a situation, Lacey could only stay put and have headquarters think of
a solution.
The two soon arrived back at Linton Group.
Nancy could be seen pacing back and forth.
“Lacey! You're back. I'm about to lose my mind!” she exclaimed and walked over upon seeing Lacey return.
Lacey grew curious. “What's going on, Nancy? Tell me.”
Nancy pointed toward her sister's desk. “Take a look for yourself.”
It was now that Lacey noticed a huge pile of brand new clothes on her own office desk.
She began to go through the pile. “Why'd you bring all these clothes here?”
“Lacey, Dawnie, what do you think of the quality of these clothes?” asked Nancy.
“The quality? They're horrible in terms of both workmanship and fabric. They're all defective. You didn't buy them
from some fishy website, did you?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNancy shook her head. “Look at the labels.”
Lacey's expression turned grim as soon as the saw the tags.
“Second Bloom Apparel, Third Bloom Apparel, Fourth Bloom Apparel, and even First Bloom Apparel? These are all
knockoffs of our own brand! Nancy, who did this?”
Nancy sighed. “We're still looking into it. All we know is that in just one night, all these knockoff stores of First Bloom
Apparel began popping up everywhere in the country. What's worse, most of them are located near our own stores.
Now, even First Bloom Apparel has counterfeits, too.”
The nerve!
Dawn gritted her teeth in anger. “We spent nearly a million establishing First Bloom Apparel, and it wasn't easy
getting it to take flight! We're screwed if the brand flops because of all these knockoffs!”
We have to look into this!
Lacey was just as furious. “Let's get to the bottom of this.”
First, it was Intercontinental Constructions, and now it's all these First Bloom knockoffs. Someone's casting a huge
net at us from the shadows, and it's clear that they're trying to bring us down in one swoop.
At that very moment, Nancy's phone began to ring.
