Chapter 75
After speaking, Skyler got up and left.
Jocelyn’s gaze flashed as she watched his silhouette,
She found it hard to understand Skyler. However, regardless of everything, she just had to do her own job well. After going upstairs, Skyler stood before the floor-to-ceiling windows of his bedroom. He took out a mint slowly and popped it in his mouth. He rubbed the center of his brows in irritation as he watched the city lights light up.
Suddenly, he regretted bringing the cat home. However, he could not go against his words and sent it away now.
His relationship with Jocelyn White should not be like this. It seemed like something was beyond his control right now
Skyler cast his heavy gaze outside the window. He dialed Yale’s number. “I’ll head over to Cloud City personally to view the project over there tomorrow!”
Yale was slightly shocked. “President Moore, didn’t you say that you’d ask Vice President Shaw to head over instead?”
Skyler spoke up in a heavy tone, “Tell him that he doesn’t need to go anymore. On the other hand, help me to book flight tickets for tomorrow!”
At the same time, Jim received a friend request on Facebook He noticed Lexie’s account name He accepted the request happily at once
However, Lexe transferred a sum of money to him as soon as he accepted her request. It was not a large sum of money It was the exact sum that he had spent on the bill for Lexie’s table in the afternoon
Jim’s expression changed at once. Jim Lexie, what is the meaning of this? Before Lexe could reply to him, his phone accepted the payment straight away It was as if his phone had been infected by a virus
Jim stared at the screen of his phone with an unpleasant look on his face.
Jim. I did not accept the payment just now There was something wrong with my phone Otherwise, I wouldn’t have accepted your money I’ll send it back to you!
However, a red exclamation mark appeared behind his text the moment he sent it to Lexde
Jim’s handsome face darkened Lexe had blocked him He could not help but curse “f*ck! What is this!”
She had blocked him after he accepted the money that she had sent to him! He could not believe this!
Meanwhile, at Lexie’s place, Lexie closed her laptop after deleting his contact. She then turned around to rest.
She did not want to owe Jim a single cent! However, Jim did not know that Lexie had hacked his phone for a moment. He thought that his phone had accepted the funds on its own because something was wrong with it.
The next day, Jocelyn found out that Skyler had went on a business trip after she went to work
She did not see him for the next few days.
The wound on Whitie’s leg had healed completely. The customization process of Zayn and Lynn’s jewelry had been completed. Skyler did not return even after they made the final payments.
On this day, the final evaluation of the Century Jewelry Competition finally came to an end.
In the afternoon, Jocelyn found out that she had won the only grand prize of the Century Jewelry Competition after having lunch with Yvie. As soon as they entered the design department, they heard Fiona’s jealous voice.
“She just won the grand prize! Do you guys need to shower her with so much praise? There are plenty of people that have won the grand prize of the Century Jewelry Competition!”
“Fiona, that’s not the only reason. Jocelyn White is extremely popular nowadays. Plenty of customers have come over with design requests for her because of her reputation!
Fiona huffed coldly and said, “What a joke. What other works does she have other than the one that she won the grand prize with this time around? If it weren’t for the popularity that she gained through the previous lawsuit, a newbie without any works like her wouldn’t receive any support. In my opinion, it’s likely that the judges gave her the award because of the popularity that she gained from the plagiarism case!” Nobody said anything after Fiona finished speaking.
After all, the Century Jewelry Competition was sponsored by Prosperity Jewelry. Fiona was directly badmouthing Prosperity Jewelry.
Fiona did not like Jocelyn, but everyone else would not follow suit and continue discussing this incident at the risk of offending the company.
As soon as Fiona finished speaking, Yvie rushed into the design department. Jocelyn could not hold her back in time.
Yvie, who had always been cowardly, could not control her emotions anymore. She looked at everyone angrily and stood up for Jocelyn “You guys are simply jealous! Aren’t Jocelyn’s recent design drafts a proof of her abilities?”
Fiona scoffed and said, “What can that prove? she just took on a few clients. What does this prove? It shows that her abilities are still far from that of the many talented designers with works that stand out in every competition!
Yvie had an unpleasant expression on her face. She could not deny this point. That was because the Century Jewelry Competition was the only renowned competition that Jocelyn had participated in up till now.
Fiona’s words made sense as well.
It was nothing for one to win the prize once in the jewelry industry. A designer could only continue doing well if they had endless inspiration and design talent. Jocelyn walked into the design department and reached out to hold Yvie, who was about to scold Fiona, back. She spoke up calmly. “You’re right, Miss Payne. My abilities are still far from good right now. However, I’ll prove myself through hard work and effort!” As soon as Jocelyn finished speaking, Davis walked out of his office. Obviously, he had heard everything that they had said just now. He spoke up calmly, “Since Jocelyn got the grand prize in the Century Jewelry Competition, the design department will hold a celebration tonight. I’ll treat everyone!” This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
Fiona clenched her hands with an unpleasant look on her face after Davis spoke up. The main reason Fiona went against Jocelyn in the past was because Jocelyn’s arrival had broken some of the rules that Josie had set in the past. Besides, Jocelyn kept putting her in awkward situations. She hated her terribly. However, after Davis returned from his business trip, she realized that he treated Jocelyn differently. She had been in the design department of Prosperity Jewelry for two years. She had liked Davis ever since joining the company. Jocelyn’s appearance had distracted Davis. Fiona wanted to rip Jocelyn into pieces and destroy her completely. It was a pity that nobody cared about her thoughts.
After Davis said that he would treat the department to a meal, he looked at Jocelyn and said,” Jocelyn White, come to my office for a while!” Fiona’s pupils constricted after she heard what he said. She glared at Jocelyn. She wished that her gaze could pierce through her body.
