Veronica's POV
"I have two conditions!" Rose declared.
"Alright."
I focused intently on her words.
"First, you need to join REG as Tasha and design three major international fashion shows. I want you to take REG and its brand worldwide."
"How did you discover my identity?" I asked, caught off guard.
"Finding that out wasn't particularly challenging, especially considering everything that went down between you and VIG," Rose responded, her gaze sharp with business acumen and the calculating nature of a seasoned entrepreneur.
I gave a nod. "Fine, I'll agree to that condition. What's the second?"
"Second, you must turn over the complete 'Reese's Aromatic Codex' - the secret manuscript from Reese's Fragrance & Dye Studio. That's my final condition. Your thoughts?"
Rose watched me with anticipation. I felt my blood freeze, though I managed to keep my face blank. "What exactly are you talking about? I have no idea what this 'Reese's Aromatic Codex' is."
