~Nearly a Year Later~

“Today we are welcomed by two very accomplished women CEOs. Leading today’s fabric and fashion industries please welcome Kim Taeyeon and Jessica Jung!” The audience cheered as Jessica and Taeyeon entered the stage. They both greeted the host before taking their seats.

“Thank you for inviting us.” Jessica smiled as she pat Taeyeon on the thigh.

“We are so glad to get you two to come to this event. I want to start off with the hard-hitting questions first, so Ms. Jung, what inspired to you to create BlancZer0®?”

Jessica giggled modestly at the question, “It was actually Taeyeon here who convinced me to make the line.”

The crowd was in awe as the host took over, “Taeyeon? I heard she was the brains behind the Zer0 fabric line. We were surprised to hear a merger happened so fast after your product took off nearly a year ago.”

Taeyeon smiled politely, “I think there is only so much you can do with a piece of fabric. Jessica has built this fashion empire and thought my fabrics would be put to good use there. With BlancZer0® we have expanded that idea to more than just fashion though. Jessica tries to give me all this credit but I am just happy to see my inventions getting put to good use thanks to all of Jessica’s ideas.”

Jessica reached down secretly to squeeze Taeyeon’s hand, “Taeyeon is too modest. She is constantly challenging me to find new ideas. The creation of BlancZer0® has made us both stronger and made us love coming to work even more.”

The audience clapped, “Wow so you are saying you have the ideal partnership?”

Jessica and Taeyeon looked at each other lovingly, “Yes.”

Unbeknownst to the public, this partnership was more than just business.
