The Wife Is A Superstar 7

Chapter 1288: Orchidia Mommy and Orchidia Baby

Jennie also used the opportunity at the magazine interview to announce two new brands that she would be launching soon—Orchidia Mommy and Orchidia Baby.

This meant a reorganization in the original Orchidia Beauty.

The company itself would now be known as just Orchidia while Orchidia Beauty, Orchidia Mommy and Orchidia Baby would become brands under it.

Of course, Orchidia Company would still remain under its parent company, M Holdings. That wouldn't change.

The administrative management of Orchidia wouldn't change much either. Jennie remained as the President-CEO, Chaeng as the COO and Jisoo as the CFO. However, the newly expanded company now hired additional staff to fill in the necessary positions to keep everything running smoothly.

"My sister who is the CFO of Orchidia is also pregnant like me," Jennie said in the interview. "The two of us made the decision to add these two new Orchidia brands in order to cater to women like us who are pregnant and will soon become parents. We are committed to using our own firsthand experiences to provide consumers with safe and high-quality products that are also as eco-friendly as possible. Our Chief of Product Development, Alric Bauer, and all his fellow researchers and developers are always doing their best to innovate and even invent new technology for all the products Orchidia sells to our precious consumers."

The announcement was a hit.

Existing loyal Orchidia Beauty consumers who were also mothers couldn't wait for the launch of Orchidia Mommy and Orchidia Baby. They already knew the excellent quality of each and every Orchidia Beauty products. They felt that it was only natural that Orchidia Mommy and Orchidia Baby, or any other future brands under Orchidia for that matter, would also adhere to the company's promise of safe and high-quality products.

That same week, Jennie led the extensive promotional activities for the launch of Orchidia Mommy and Orchidia Baby. For events where she couldn't attend in person, she would still give a few words via live video chat or even just recorded video messages.

During this time, pre-orders were opened. In just two days, the pre-orders for both Orchidia Mommy and Orchidia Baby products were sold out.

The wait for the official launch didn't last long.

Just another week later, Orchidia Mommy and Orchidia Baby finally launched at the same time. Due to the advance state of her pregnancy, Jennie opted to throw a rather simple launch party for the two new Orchidia brands.

It was even smaller than the opening ceremony of M Holdings held earlier this year. Despite this, the launch of Orchidia Mommy and Orchidia Baby still received widespread media attention.

Jennie even composed catchy commercial jingles for both Orchidia Mommy and Orchidia Baby. The jingles were so catchy that schoolchildren could be heard singing them.

The product variety for now was quite limited but Jennie promised that Orchidia would release more in the coming months after the products completed and passed their intensive safety tests.

Orchidia.

The exhausted Chaeng dragged her high-heeled feet to the President-CEO's office. There, she found Jennie and Jisoo who were both pregnant, munching on a rather impressive spread of snacks and sweets. Lots and lots of sweets.

Eating with them was the perpetual chatterbox Jae with his bottomless stomach. He was actually eating more than the two pregnant ladies combined but his belly remained flat.

Truly an annoying creature especially for those who had to control their food intake just to avoid getting fat.

Chaeng grabbed a random sandwich from the table and plopped down on the couch beside Jae, the glutton.

"Fuck me," she grumbled while tearing into her sandwich. "This year is so hectic!"

"Chaeng, you're pretty and successful, so if you want to be fucked, I'm sure that there will be lots of guys lining up to sleep with you," Jae said.

Chaeng rolled her eyes. "Shut up, Jae."

"Hehehe. Maybe a certain superstar with a killer smile will take you up on your offer."

She glared at him. "Him? Eeew! No way!"

"Why not?" Jae countered. "Prince is the object of many fantasies, you know."

"Not mine! So what if he's a superstar? As if I care. I'm not interested in a playboy like him. What if I catch a venereal disease from him? So dirty! Yuck!"

"Chaeng, you're being too harsh," Jisoo said.

"Whatever. I'm just being honest."

"I don't think Hyung has dated anyone after what happened with Jieun," Jennie commented.

Jae's expression turned ugly. "Jieun, that evil witch! I'll never forgive that monster! Just saying her name is dirtying my gorgeous self! Pweh!"

Everyone became quiet.

The topic of Jieun, V's ex-fiancée who orchestrated the deadly car crash which sent Jennie into a year-long coma, had always been a touchy subject.

"Let's not talk about this anymore," Jisoo said in an effort to recover from the heavy atmosphere.

She glanced at her younger sister with worry. When she saw that Jennie looked normal, she inwardly sighed with relief.

Jennie noticed her concern and smiled. "Don't worry. Jieun is already paying the price for her crimes. There's no need to be careful when talking about that woman around me. I'm not that fragile."

"Yeah, you're a boss bitch," Chaeng said. "You can't be a boss bitch if you're fragile. Hell, I'm a boss bitch myself. Even Jisoo who's usually shy is also a boss bitch. Just watch her whenever someone overspends company budget and she'll chew that person's head out with vengeance."

"Chaeng!" Jisoo's face turned red.

"Hahahahaha!"

Everyone laughed because it was true.

Jisoo might not be usually as assertive as either Jennie or Chaeng, but she would always transform into a fire-breathing dragon when it came to safeguarding the company money. It was always a huge hurdle for anyone to make her cough out extra money without any careful deliberation.

She pouted while looking at her friends laughing at her expense.. But she was also glad that they finally moved on from the dark topic about Jieun.
