But Wayne's phone was turned off as well.
Everly called Isla and Sarah, but the line couldn't get through.
Even Catherine's phone was turned off! Why was this happening? Why did everyone have their phones turned off? Left with no choice, Everly texted them, but she didn't receive a single reply the whole day.

I have a spa appointment in the afternoon." Then, the others started making excuses to leave.
Enraged, Priscilla questioned Everly, "Where's the show you talked about? Did you make us wait for nothing on purpose?" Priscilla brought her friends along, expecting that there would be a show to enjoy. Yet, not only did they fail to humiliate Catherine, but the suppliers also managed to raise their selling price and they wasted their tfor nothing.
Everly attempted to explain, "I don't know why Hera-" "If you can't sell off those herbs, you'll have to bear the losses yourself." Priscilla then stormed out of the clinic.

The shocking revelation riveted Everly on the spot. Her complexion didn't look good. "T-That's impossible!" If Hera didn't need those herbs, what should Everly do with them? She didn't need those stocks that were worth hundreds of millions of dollars! Did she have to bear the loss all by herself? Hera smiled. "I've replaced those herbs with other things, so I don't need them anymore." Everly's mind went blank.
If Hera had figured out an alternative, why did she announce that she was looking for those herbs? Finally realizing the scheme, Everly pointed at Hera. Her hand was trembling.

I thought it was you who tried to buy them off at a higher price, no?" Hera sneered.
