Chapter 195 First Product Launch
Before Eric experienced the explosion, MC Studio had already targeted Davison Group. Eric intercepted MC Studio’s attack on the company’s system.
This time, Eric retaliated boldly. He hacked into MC’s system, exposing all its vulnerabilities and scandals. MC Studio unexpectedly found itself at the centre of the turmoil. Attackers also targeted the company’s headquarters in Maridonia. The company’s CEO was not present in the country: the company suffered a significant market share loss and saw its market value plummet by millions!
Yves hurriedly retreated from Haldoria back to Maridonia, barely preserving a fraction of MC’s market, but the company’s reputation was in tatters.
After the scandals surfaced, many employees decided to resign, dealing a severe blow to the company, even though its core remained intact.
In Capital City, among all the companies affected, Sadler Group suffered the most.
Sadler Group had always been at odds with Lowe Group. When Davison Group and Lowe Group joined forces, Sadler Group lost a significant market share and faced a public relations crisis. It had dropped from a top–tier company to a second–tier one, no longer on par with Lowe Group.
With many companies in Capital City in a state of panic, worried that Davison Group might target them next, design firms were especially cautious. Amidst this, Kate’s HN Studio suddenly emerged in the public eye.
HN Studio focuses on design. The company founder had just won an international design competition and garnered a lot of attention.
However, HN Studio did not announce any overt collaborations with Lowe Group or Davison Group, declaring it to be Kate’s personal studio with no collaborative projects involving the two major groups.
A renowned factory in Haldoria collaborated with the studio to develop their first batch of products, and they scheduled the launch event for three days later.
This news left the people of Capital City stunned. No one had expected Kate to establish a studio independent of Davison Group and Lowe Group, quickly secure a manufacturing partner, and schedule a product launch.
The design world also took notice. Many prominent designers were interested in attending HN Studio’s first product launch.
As for Kate herself, she was overwhelmed by the flurry of activities, Kate had worked tirelessly for days.
“Phew!”

Chapter 195 First Product Launch
Finished
Nestled on the soft couch, Kate felt utterly exhausted. Every part of her body, even her hair, seemed fatigued.
“You’re home?
Eric’s voice broke the silence.
His eyes were deep and thoughtful as he wheeled himself out of the study. His gaze settled on Kate, sprawled on the sofa, and his eyes brimmed with heartache.
“Mmm.”
Kate responded softly, and her voice was weak. She said, “Eric, after handling these matters myself, I realised… you’re amazing!”
She looked at Eric with eyes full of admiration.
The burden of managing just HN Studio had nearly worn her out, and this was only the launch of the first batch of products. Despite George’s assistance, Kate still felt overwhelmed.
And Eric? He was in charge of the entire Davison Group! There are numerous large and small collaborations, even international dealings.
In addition, Eric had earned his first bucket of gold by winning underground boxing matches, starting from nothing and building his commercial empire from scratch.
How much has Eric sacrificed over the years?
