Estelle’s words caused a lot of booing and eye-rolling.“Manuscript? Drawings are done using software now. Who still draws on manuscripts? Does she think she’s living in the Medieval Ages?”“I think she’s doing it on purpose. A designer who can’t even use design software, she doesn’t have the chops!”“15 minutes? I don’t think even software can do it, and she’s drawing on manuscripts. What kind of sick joke is this?”The entire conference room was noisy. There were whispered words and loud discussions. Either way, they were all talking down to her.Only the manager, most likely due to Skyler’s relationship with her, spoke to her relatively politely. “Are you sure you can finish drawing the entire jewelry set on a manuscript in 15 minutes?”“I’m not sure.”The manager’s anger flared. “Then why did you even say-”“I never make promises I’m unsure about. This is my principle of doing things,” Estelle said, “manager, Director Larson, please trust me this once. If I fail to draw it,
He only gave her a pencil, so there was no way for her to have colors.In fact, she used a pencil to draw a three-dimensional drawing with lighting effects. The turquoise pendants were all blacked out at first, then she used an eraser to create different shades of white. From a distance, it looked like a beautiful gem had materialized out of the paper, it was sufficiently life-like.He looked down at his watch. “You have one last minute.”Hearing this, Estelle increased her speed.She started from the difficult tasks before moving on to the easier ones. First, she drew the necklace which was the most complicated piece with the most dimensional data. Then came the earrings, brooches, and finally the ring.In the end, she even added an extra ear hook.“Time’s up.”“I’m done.”Estelle took down her design drawing, walked over and handed it to Thomas. “Director Larson, please have a look.”Manager Quinton was standing the closest to him, he was stunned when he saw it. “Oh my god.
“Miss Sanders!!”“I’m fine.” Estelle leaned against the wall, barely able to stand. “Don’t worry.”Manager Quinton looked at her worriedly. “Are you sick? Do you need me to send you to the hospital?”“No need for that. I have some medicine in my bag, I’ll be fine after I take them.”“Are you sure?”“Yeah.”Estelle pulled out the painkillers from her bag, took a pill, and swallowed it.There was only a single pill of painkillers left in the bottle.They waited a few minutes before the pain started to reduce a little, and she slowly recovered.“I’m sorry, manager. I’ve soiled the floor, I will clean it up myself.”“Don’t. You’re a designer now, and those hands are valuable. It’s just a little bit of blood, let’s just have the cleaning lady take care of it later. But Miss Sanders, are you really alright? You don’t look so good.”Estelle said, “It’s an old problem. Don’t worry, manager. I promise it will not affect my work.”“... Okay.”She followed Manager Quinton to the pers
However, the day before the engagement ceremony, the car accident happened.Immediately afterward, Skyler broke up with her. She went to M Country to give birth to Elio and then returned to find Skyler. She then lived humbly for five long years.... It was unbearable. Thinking about it now, her destiny hit a huge bump on that day. Otherwise, with her talent, she might have already become a well-known person in the designer world. “My god, what a pity.” Miss Fowler sighed. “But that’s okay. Senior, you are now working in The Only Jewel. I want to tell everyone in my circle that I found you!”“Eh, don’t…”“Why not? Senior, don’t you know? How many people went to Milan Jewelry Design because of you. At least half of my class did! You are the idol of all of us juniors, a shining star!”Estelle said, “I… just want to live a normal life. I don’t want too much attention.”“Oh, oh. Is it to take care of your children?”“... You can say that.”Miss Fowler was very happy and was eager
700,000.For Estelle in the past, this was probably a bag, a pair of shoes, and even a pair of sunglasses.Now, to her, it was a huge sum of money.It was a good start to the first day of work.The surrounding colleagues immediately gathered around, looking at her enviously.“Wow, you’re amazing. You could handle the mother and daughter? Although they bid a high price for their design drawings to be made, they were difficult to deal with, they were just so picky. You handled it on your first day! Unbelievable!”“Ah, why have we not heard of you in the industry before? You are so good, it should not be like this.”Estelle explained. “I left this circle in the past, and I became a housewife for six years.”“My god! With your talent, you became a housewife? Just how good is your husband for you to be willing to be just a housewife?”“I… I’m divorced.”“Huh?”Estelle laughed embarrassedly. “It’s because I’m divorced that I’m now working to earn money.”The female colleagues loo
“Don’t worry, I’m buying, so you must have your fill. Let’s go in.”“Wow, the fishes are so pretty! It’s the first time I’ve come to a place like this. We’re actually having dinner in an undersea tunnel, it’s so dreamy. I must have my wedding here in the future!”“Sure, you can have it anywhere you want, but I must be the groom.”“Oh, that’s not necessarily true. I have to pick wisely. What if someone more handsome than you treats me better?”“You should give it up, you will never find another man in this world who treats you better.”…“Miss?” the waiter called out to her. “Are there any questions?”“Huh?”Estelle recovered and only then did she realize that she was sitting in the restaurant, and the person sitting across from her had changed from Skyler to Abigail. The waiter was waiting for her to order from the menu. Abigail asked, “What’s the matter, Estelle? Not feeling well?”“No. I just thought of some work suddenly, so I was a little flustered.”“Hey, you workaholi
Of course, Estelle understood.However…There was still that Sir.Speak of the devil. The moment she thought of Sir, his message arrived.[Am I going to eat alone again tonight?]Estelle suddenly remembered. She was so happy to have dinner with Abigail that she forgot to report to Sir.[Sorry, Sir, I forgot to tell you. I promised to treat Abigail to dinner. How about I go back now?][You don’t have to. You go have fun. I just feel, when you’re not here, the room… it’s lonely.]Estelle’s heart ached. [The driver will be waiting in front of your restaurant. Take the car and come back here directly after you’re done. Do you understand?][Yes.]Putting away her phone, Estelle sighed.Sir treats her so well. Whether she was a substitute, or if it was true love, he was treating her too well.Sometimes she thought since she was on the same boat with Sir, why not just be with him.However, she was also very afraid that one day she would be abandoned again.She really did not w
Not far away, the driver had been waiting for a long time. He came over to ask, “Miss Sanders, are you ready to depart? Sir has been waiting for very long.”Estelle nodded. “Okay, let’s go.”“Wait-” Skyler clasped her wrist, eyebrows frowned. “Sir? What Sir?”“Let go of me, Skyler!”“I’m not letting go!” Skyler’s eyes were all red. “Estelle, why are you in such a hurry, huh? Our divorce procedure hasn’t even been completed yet, and you are already living with another man?”Estelle said sternly, “Skyler, stop being so vexatious, will you? You said it yourself, you don’t want to be with me a second longer. I have wholeheartedly let you go, giving you over to Camilla, so what are you doing here now?!”Skyler also did not know what he was doing here.Since seeing her in The Only Jewel that day, for some reason, he had been a little overwhelmed for the past few days.It was not that he was thinking of her, only… sometimes, her voice would drift into his head.She was such a fearles
