in a five-person company, Rose immediately arranged for the release of a job recruitment notice. Meanwhile, across the street in the office building facing Century Tower, Jamie sat in his office.The vast ground floor office area was occupied by employees, all familiar faces from Celeste Jewels. Kelly gazed at the company's signboard, "Lavier Jewels", which stood out prominently.She was pleasantly surprised. It turned out that her father had been discreetly operating a jewelry company. Over the years, numerous resources acquired through Celeste Jewels had flowed primarily to their company, thanks to her father's manipulations. What could Rose do even if she inherited Celeste Jewels? It was an empty shell at this point.She wanted to bring Rose over right away to witness this, as she was sure her reaction would be priceless. However, on the surface, she continued to appear deeply concerned as she said, "Dad if Rose were to find out about this company ..."Before she could fin
The woman noticeably hesitated upon hearing this. "It's impossible for them not to be fake."Jamie had made it explicitly clear to her that the sets of jewelry he had given her were fake. He wouldn't deceive her.Rose observed her reaction and remarked, "Whether they are real or fake can easily be determined by an expert's assessment. Are you afraid to have them appraised?""Who's afraid? We'll have them appraised!"The woman gave her a confident look. It seemed she was wary of any tricks Rose might pull as she immediately had her bodyguards collect the jewelry along with the custom contract."To ensure fairness, why don't each of us invite an appraiser? We can meet at Aquastead Hotel in two days and have the jewelry appraised face to face," Rose suggested with a sly smile that made the woman inexplicably uneasy.Despite her lingering doubts, she couldn't see any potential tricks in this arrangement. "Alright."After agreeing, she took the jewelry and left. Still feeling une
Zac had just returned from a business trip and immediately invited both of them out for drinks. "Come on, let's drink ... Today, we won't leave until we're three sheets to the wind!"He tried to liven up the atmosphere. However, Jonathan remained stoic as he entered Nightfall Lounge. He exuded an air of resentment, drinking in silence without uttering a word.Two days had passed since he last visited Zenwood Gardens, and Rose hadn't shown any reaction. Frustrated, he took a swig of the strong alcohol, but it did little to alleviate his agitation.After observing him for a moment, a faint smile graced Miles's lips as he said, "I need to take a call."Then, he left the private room. Just as Rose thought Miles wouldn't answer the call, it rang. "Hello, Mr. Young ... I'm sorry to disturb you, but I need your help. I urgently require several jewelry materials. I'm facing a situation here, and after thinking it over, you're my only hope in the entire Aquastead."Rose and Miles had o
As he returned to Zenwood Gardens, the night had already fallen. However, Rose had not returned yet. Jonathan tried to call her, but her phone was already switched off. At this moment, Rose was completely engrossed in staring at her computer screen, meticulously replicating the designs of those sets of jewelry from memory. She was completely unaware that her phone had been switched off at some point. After completing the final design drawing and printing it, Sherlyn looked at the design sketches with incredulity."These are the design sketches for those sets of jewelry from earlier!" she exclaimed.The chaotic scene earlier had made it difficult for her to remember just a few prominent features of the jewelry. However, Rose surprisingly managed to memorize the entire appearance of the sets of jewelry in such a short time. Sherlyn's eyes were filled with admiration.Suddenly, Rose looked at her and asked, "Can you do the polishing and crafting?"She hesitated for a moment and
The night grew darker. Under the soft lighting, Rose wiped a bead of sweat from her forehead. Losing in her intense concentration, she failed to notice that Miles had been watching her at the door for quite some time. He was familiar with Rose's work. The craftsmanship of the fire opal necklace from the National Jewelry Design Award was so exquisite that even artisans with decades of experience found it hard to match. She was only in her twenties. However, her skill undoubtedly involved a great deal of natural talent aside from diligent practice."Ah!"A sudden cry caught their attention. Rose turned to see Sherlyn with a small cut on her hand, caused by the machine. She hurried over to check. Once she was sure it wasn't serious, her anxiety lessened. However, Sherlyn's hand couldn't continue working with her hand for the time being."You should go to the hospital to get it bandaged to prevent infection." Rose quickly helped her stop the bleeding.Sherlyn, overwhelmed with
Rose glanced at the flame she had drawn on the gemstone, confirming that it was the same as her usual depiction. "You've seen this before, right? The flame."She was still grateful for his assistance during the National Jewelry Design Award finals. However, it was evident that this wasn't the answer Miles was looking for.He walked up to her and asked, "I know it's a flame, but why did you mark it like this?"Rose understood what he meant. Why did she make this specific mark?She pondered for a moment before answering, "It's probably just a habit from when I was young."In her memory, her mother would make something and habitually make a mark in the most inconspicuous place. She looked at the seriousness in his expression and found his reaction peculiar. "Isn't that normal?" she inquired.Normal? Miles cast a glance at her. The Young family had its origins in the jewelry business, and nearly every family member personally created their works. After finishing a piece, they w
Rose was awakened by her alarm clock. When she checked the time, it was already 8:00 am. Realizing that today was the agreed-upon time, she was shocked. She immediately grabbed her fully charged phone from the bedside table and called Sherlyn, "Have the people on that side arrived? Where is the appraisal expert arranged by William? And those sets of jewelry that need to be replaced ...""Ms. Shaffer, please rest assured. Everything has been arranged," Sherlyn replied.The jewelry that needed to be replaced had already been taken by Jonathan. To replace the jewelry, there needed to be some special arrangements, and Rose had to personally oversee it.As soon as she got out of bed, she saw Jonathan standing at the bedroom door with his arms crossed.He looked her up and down before he asked, "Are you sure you want to go out like this?"Rose was taken aback. When she looked down, she realized she was in her pajamas, made of silk material that was a bit too revealing. It left her fig
Jonathan cast a glance at Rose. Their eyes locked, and a vivid image of the sexy sleepwear in the closet flashed across Rose's mind, causing a slight flush to her cheeks."Why is he here?" she inquired."Ms. Shaffer, the appraisal expert was brought here by Sir, and he has entrusted the jewelry to him," Sherlyn whispered to her.Rose was taken aback. Why would the jewelry be handed over to him? According to the planned flow, there should have been some minor chaos later on, allowing William to switch the jewelry. Then, everything would be untraceable. However, at this moment, Rose was beginning to feel uncertain. After both sides had positioned their respective appraisal experts, the woman opened the safe.As the expert had already appraised half of the contents of the safe, the expected chaos had not yet erupted. Rose looked at William, wanting to ask him what was happening.However, he paid no attention to her and instead fixed his gaze unwaveringly on her star escort husband.
