Jocelyn looked at Skyler and pursed her lips tightly.
After a while, she turned around to face Yvonne. âMiss Rand, can I ask you why you wanted me for the job? After all, we didnât get along well during Mrs. Claudeâs birthday gala!â
Yvonne stiffened after hearing what she said. She then burst out into laughter and said, âMiss White, why would you say that? I didnât take that to heart at all. Itâs just a small problem! I was angry back then, so I might have said some words that I didnât mean. However, thatâs all in the past. I wouldâve forgotten about it if you didnât mention it!
âBesides, youâre Skylerâs star employee. I really liked the jewelry that you designed for Lynn. I would love to be your friend. I would like to be a customer at Prosperity Jewelry as well. Whatâs wrong? Are you angry at me over that incident?â Yvonne had an innocent expression plastered across her face as she looked at Jocelyn.
Jocelyn frowned and said, âYouâre overthinking, Miss Rand. I wasnât at a disadvantage back then. I wonât hold a grudge against you!â
Yvonne recalled how Jocelyn had poured red wine on her during the gala after hearing what she said.
Her smile almost faltered.
She smiled stiffly and said, âItâs good that there arenât any grudges between us!â
Jocelyn added, âI can help you to customize a set of jewelry if you wish to, Miss Rand. However, I must tell you this in advance before President Moore and Mr. Rand. If my design doesnât meet your expectations, letâs terminate the contract in peace. Letâs not make things difficult for each other!â Yvonne was infuriated, but she still forced a smile on her face and showcased her generosity in front of Skyler.
âAlright, letâs do as you say, Miss White!â
Jim watched both of them as he stood by the side. Fights between women were way too interesting!
He guessed that Yvonne must be completely enraged by Yvonneâs straightforward attacks!
Jocelyn signed the contract with Yvonne expressionlessly. She scanned through the contract once. The contract would be beneficial for her.
It was no wonder Skyler had made her sign it.
One would be a fool not to earn money when presented with the opportunity to do so. If Yvonne caused trouble or breached the contract, she would have a way to attack her!
Jim felt that he had watched enough at this point. He spoke up, âYvonne, donât forget that you came here for official business. Isnât there something that youâd like to give to Skyler?â
Yvonne immediately came to her senses and nodded. She took out an invitation letter from her handbag, got up, and walked toward Skylerâs desk. âSkyler, itâll be my birthday in a few days. Iâll be holding a birthday party in the evening. Come join us!â Skyler accepted the invitation and threw it to the side casually. âAlright, Iâll head over if Iâm free!â
Yvonne felt slightly upset when she saw how carelessly Skyler treated her invitation. Jim spoke, âItâs lunchtime now. Letâs have lunch together. How does that sound?â Jocelyn rejected his offer at once. âI wonât go with you guys. You guys should have lunch with President Moore!â
Jocelyn wanted to leave after speaking. However, Skyler seemed to be rather unhappy all of a sudden.
He said coldly, âI donât feel like having lunch!â Jocelyn stopped walking. This should have nothing to do with her, right? As soon as she walked to the office door, Yvonne grabbed her hand and said, âHold it, Miss White!â
Jocelyn removed her hand from her grip instinctively and frowned. âIs there anything else, Miss Rand?â
Yvonne was not willing to do what she was about to do, but she needed to spend more time. with Skyler.
She had no choice but to say, âMiss White, Iâm rather busy nowadays. I might not have time to come over to discuss the specifics of the jewelry pieces with you. I wanted you to customize a set of jewelry for me as a birthday gift for myself. If you have time in the afternoon, letâs have lunch together so that I can discuss my requests with you!â
Jocelynâs gaze flashed as she asked, âWeâre going to discuss work over lunch?â Yvonneâs delicate face almost lost its composure. âIf you donât like it, letâs discuss it after lunch!â
Jocelyn pursed her lips and said, âItâs not that I donât like it. If youâd like to discuss it this afternoon, letâs have lunch together!â
Jim looked at Skyler after listening to their conversation. There was a gleeful expression on his face as he asked, âHow does that sound, Skyler? Letâs go! Itâll be fun with more people around!â
There was an unnatural expression on Skylerâs face. He cleared his throat and said, âIâll join since you keep asking me to!â
Jim could not resist laughing Skyler obviously agreed to join them for lunch because of Jocelyn, yet he tried to make it sound like he was going just because they asked him to.
The four of them walked into the presidentâs private elevator.
As soon as Jocelyn walked out of the elevator when it stopped on the first floor, someone called after her âJocelyn!â
