Chapter 367

She sneered. Just a few meaningless words from Trevor, and the Yurchenko family was already acting like they’d been handed a gift from heaven. They were too easy to manipulate.

She wasn’t in a hurry. Calmly, she showed the matter to Sophia. “Trevor really is the dream of every girl. Look how he’s still standing up for his ex. The storm passes, and he’s right there cleaning up the mess.”

When Aubree said it, the whole thing took on a different tone.

Sophia couldn’t help but feel jealous. Compared to Milena, she felt utterly inferior.

Sophia said, “My baby can do the amniotic fluid test now. Once it’s confirmed, how do you want to handle it?”

Aubree thought for a moment. “Well, the bigger the scene, the better.”

“Isn’t that Golden Flower Award ceremony coming up for Trevor? I’ll arrange for you to attend. Cause a scene. Let’s see how he handles it.” She smiled slyly.

Since she already knew that the Yurchenko and Wilson families had joined forces to target GrabCheap, Aubree gave Birgitte a heads-up. Any unusual signs should be treated with caution.

The Yurchenko family, which had been on its last legs, suddenly recovered. Online backlash faded, the Wilson family invested, and the Diamonde family helped open doors. Everyone had thought offending Bree Technology and the Turner Group would mean the Yurchenko family was done for, but to everyone’s surprise, they’d managed to find a way out.

While others were waiting for Aubree’s next move, nothing happened.

Even Quantavius was a little surprised. He had assumed that teaming up with the Wilson family would provoke Aubree. At the very least, she’d show some sort of reaction. But she didn’t do anything.

Even Birgitte continued showing up for work like nothing was wrong.

The Yurchenko family had caught its breath and stabilized. For now, they weren’t making any new moves.

Aubree maintained a “no action unless provoked” strategy while staying vigilant.

Meanwhile, GrabCheap’s performance was skyrocketing. The data exploded by several hundred times. Not only were there ads on every major platform, but they were all over subways and public spaces too. Moreover, Zappy was saturated with ads.

As a partner, Manchotech gave them full support. Their social media posts were flooded with GrabCheap ads.

The campaign had gone viral. It was a full-on marketing blitz.

The folks over at Manchotech were the most hyped about this. The team at Bree Technology was surprised by the results, but it was pretty much what they expected. The Manchotech crew, on the other hand, was absolutely floored by the numbers Bree Technology brought to the table.

No one was more thrilled than Dmytro. This was his project. The better it performed, the more impressive his resume, and the bigger his bonus.

“How did you do it? Just through ad spending?” he asked Aubree over the phone.

“Of course not,” Aubree replied confidently. “We launched a ‘Billion Dollars Subsidy’ campaign. We say it’s a billion dollars, but the real investment is far less. At least, for now.”

The subsidy campaign was designed to last a long time. And if things kept going at this pace, actually investing a full billion dollars wouldn’t be impossible in the future.

Dmytro was stunned. ‘Damn, she’s got some guts!’

“Aren’t you worried you won’t get that money back?” he asked.

“If you’re afraid of everything in business, how can you ever make money?” Aubree shot back.

Dmytro had to agree. Regardless of worries, the data spoke for itself. Aubree was winning. A few billion dollars in investment had bought them a massive user base. GrabCheap’s registered users had surpassed 100 million, possibly long before this.

Sure, volume wasn’t everything. But with a base this huge, even a 10% retention rate would be terrifying.

And clearly, GrabCheap was just getting started.

“We’re going to need more investment down the line,” Aubree said.

Dmytro immediately understood. She was asking for more funds.
