“What’s next? Just confirming that he’s doing well will be enough.”

I was momentarily taken aback but quickly realized something. “I don’t want to anticipate anything

anymore.

I can’t really describe my feelings toward Frank. The only thought I’ve had over the past two years is hoping to hear from him, hoping that he is still alive and well.

The next day, Jane and I went to the Charlotte Jewelry together.

Austin had been promoted to Deputy Director of the Design Department and now had his own independent office.

When he saw me through the French windows at the company, he was overjoyed and rushed to Jane’s office, “Ms. Wilson! You’re finally back at the company. I’ve been looking forward to your return day and night.”

“You missed her so much?” Jane teased with a smile. “When she’s not here, you’re the one in charge, enjoying yourself. Why would you look forward to her coming back?”

In the two years I was away, the Charlotte Jewelry had grown rapidly, even leasing the office space on the floors below, totaling two floors.

Now, there were

quite a few people in the Design Department, and Austin had significant authority. Jane Insisted on keeping the position of Design Director vacant for me, so for the past two years, Austin had been the head of the Design Department.

Austin rubbed his head. “That’s not quite it. Working under Ms. Wilson, you learn a lot more.”

“It doesn’t really matter if I’m here or not.” I smiled. “I reviewed every design draft you submitted, especially yours. I’ve been the toughest on you.”

“Huh?” Austin was surprised. “So, you were the one who did the final review every time?”

I nodded. “Yes.”

After I went abroad, the final drafts were sent to Jane, who then forwarded them to me.

No one knew who the designer behind the Charlotte Jewelry was.

Plus, after I started working with my mentor, my design style became bolder and more innovative, and no one could guess it was me.

-Austin was both surprised and delighted, and joked with Jane, “Miss Greenwood, you’re not telling us

anything.

That’s right. Jane shrugged and joked, “If I told you everything, you’d know the reviewer is someone familiar, and there might be some unrealistic hopes.”

Austin was passionate about design. After smiling, he looked back at me. “So, does the fact that I’ve been Tejected fewer times in the past year mean I’ve made a lot of progress?”

“Of course. Even my mentor has recognized your design drafts.”

Austin couldn’t help but ask, “Then the designer responsible for private custom designs isn’t you, is it? If it is, I have to say, that’s impressive. We were all amazed by the designs at this year’s fashion show.”

“Alright, alright,” Jane interjected. “There are too many questions. You’ll find out if you need to know.”

She then handed me a pile of resumes for the Design Department.

I was tasked with sorting through them.

The basic qualifications, like education, were screened by the HR department. My job was only to review past work.

The next day, l’had an appointment with Yasmin at four o’clock in the afternoon, at a five–star hotel.

Jane had been staying at my place these past few days, ostensibly to keep me company.

We set off together for the hotel.

Since someone of Yasmin’s status was staying there, the hotel was very strict with its management, requiring a personal escort rather than just a phone call.

Yasmin was staying in the top–floor presidential suite. An assistant greeted us in the living room and offered us tea.

They brought tea and said, “Miss Greenwood, Ms. Elena, please have some tea. You might need to wait a little while. Yasmin is with her daughter and will be out soon.”

“Thank you.” Jane and I both smiled as we accepted the tea.

Even though she was staying in a hotel, Yasmin showed no signs of making do.

The air even had a faint scent of aromatherapy.
