The man then made a phone call and made an appointment.

"We're going to shoot a second time, and you have to get ready to be in front of the camera again!"

At this time, Pauline was thinking about a wage increase. She is no fool. After filming some time ago, she saw her face in the news, which went viral on various social media.

To avoid suspicion, Pauline always wore a mask to disguise her face.

Meanwhile, to avoid identifying or discovering who was behind the viral exposures on social media, Pauline Kim has been forced to wear a mask all this time.

When a supervisor at work asked why she was still wearing a mask even though the pandemic had passed, under the pretense of a slight cough, Pauline Kim replied, "I currently have a cold. It's improving, but I'm afraid it might spread and infect customers."

The company's wine production activities were simple as long as a business license was secured. Zack Lockhart, the CEO and third richest person in Accomont City, controls a substantial amount of real estate, encompassing anything from homes and stores to grand office buildings. Finding a structure to house a factory is therefore not difficult. A number of structures were identified as factories that were not utilized in the growth of Lockhart Pharmaceutical. Furthermore, all of the factory's equipment—which is mostly used to produce drugs—was readily available and just required to be installed in accordance with the requirements and operations of the facility. On the third day following the meeting with Amanda Lockhart, there was a phone call. With a slight smile on his lips, Taylor gazed at the call on his mobile phone screen. "Amanda Lockhart?" he asked himself in

The Lockhart Company's operations were undoubtedly observed by other businesses, particularly the Erricson Company. The business community in Accomont City had started to believe something was being prepared ever since the Erricson Company hired an Alchemist from Awrossa City to work directly under CEO Abraham Erricson. The expectation in the city seemed to resonate through the air. "Hi, Ma'am Manager. I recently seen a Lockhart Company officer enter my workplace. It appears that he is handling a company's licensing. To you, is this news significant?" The voice on the phone was that of a spy.

A wave of restlessness washed over her, and a foggy cloud continued to loom over her face, suggesting that she might still harbor anxiety. When Taylor saw this, he sympathized. In an attempt to ease any ice that might still be a touch stiff, he grabbed the initiative right away and began discussing the project he would be working on with the Lockhart Company.
