Chapter 513
While Brian was sharing the amusing comments with Jessica, the brands mentioned in the comments were
buzzing with excitement.
The president of one such brand immediately issued orders, “Tell production to ramp up output. I want
restocks by tomorrow.
“And have marketing reach out to Mr. Atkinson with our best wishes to capitalize on the hype. Oh, by the
way, send them our new releases for free testing going forward.”
“Got it,” the secretary reported. Then, she handed him a file. “Sir, marketing also asked if we could sign Mr. Atkinson and Ms. Grant as brand ambassadors. Here’s the proposal.”
The president skimmed the report and set it aside. “That’s not happening. Remember that livestream fiasco with that CEO? If we push for a deal now, we’ll just annoy them, or worse, ruin our brand’s image in their eyes.”
Brian and Jessica had been trending almost daily lately. Their undeniable influence had every brand itching
to sign them, yet none dared make the first move.
Why? Because they weren’t celebrities to be bought. They were the capital. The endorsement fee wouldn’t
even register as pocket change for them.
The president stared at the trending topic, fists clenched with restraint. “Hold all actions for now. Notify
every flagship store. If Ms. Grant visits, pull out all the stops to keep her there. Whatever she buys, gift her
the best complimentary items possible.”
The president’s strategy was simple–build a connection with Jessica instead. After analyzing the data, he had noticed Brian’s devotion to her. Rather than risk Brian’s wrath with a clumsy pitch, he’d bet everything
on Jessica’s satisfaction.
“If Ms. Grant occasionally uses our products, this quarter’s sales are secured,” the president said.
His secretary nodded and relayed the orders. Such a scene was mirrored in boardrooms across competing
brands.
During the short holiday break, Jessica and Brian took Jacob on a trip. Along the way, Jessica’s bag got dirty. Brian took her to a reputable boutique nearby to pick up a couple of new ones.
What they didn’t expect was how overly enthusiastic the sales staff would be toward Jessica.
“You have such exquisite taste, ma’am. This is the latest limited–edition piece. Only a thousand worldwide. Just for you, 20% off.” The salesgirl practically glowed, offering Jessica juice, asking if she was tired, even

suggesting a massage.
Jessica just wanted to buy bags. “No thanks.” She declined flatly.
“Decided?” Brian walked over.
“These two.” Jessica pointed.
“Wrap them up.” Brian nodded, heading to the checkout.

Jessica waited on the sofa. When the packages arrived, they came with a mountain of freebies dwarfing her
actual purchase.
“You sure this isn’t a mistake?” Jessica frowned at the absurd haul.
“Ms. Grant, you’re a valued client. These are just loyalty gifts,” the salesgirl beamed. “If there’s anything else you like, please do visit again.”
Jessica forced a polite smile and accepted them.
The pattern repeated at every boutique afterward. The most extreme case was when they simply walked
into a store to browse, only to be handed a gift package by the manager as they left, along with a humble request for feedback about the brand.
Jessica eventually couldn’t take it anymore. Mumbling vague praise, she dragged Brian out.
Back in the car, Jessica turned to Brian with a frown. “What the hell was that?” She wasn’t overreacting. Those salespeople had looked at her less like a customer and more like a lucky charm.
Brian chuckled at her bewildered expression.
“Why are you laughing?” Jessica shot him a glare.
“Dad, don’t laugh at Mom.” Jacob immediately defended her.
“Alright, alright.” Brian handed her his phone. “Look.”
Jessica eyed him suspiciously. “At what?”
“Brands sending us blessings,” Brian said, unable to hide his amusement.
“Blessings?” Confused, Jessica scrolled through the comments, then groaned. “So we’re unpaid influencers now?” She hadn’t realized netizens tracked their every purchase.
She clicked on links and visited the online stores of various brands, only to find that every single item they had ever used was sold out.
