Chapter 896 Cooperation Part Two Anna had confidence in herself. However, after hearing Natalieâs evaluation of herself, she smiled.
âThank you, thank you,â Anna murmured, âIf it werenât for you, there wouldnât be a new Anna, a new Muse. You also made me understand that designing isnât just about talent. More importantly, you made me realize that designing is the true love of my life!â
Natalie saw the flames of hope rekindling in Annaâs eyes and was happy about her transformation.
The two continued to discuss the design of âRebirthâ in detail.
âHave you thought of the gemstones to use on the pendant of âRebirthâ?â
âYes.â Anna nodded with a hint of embarrassment on her face. âI want to use the thunderstone specially available in the west for the pendant. âI wonât be using large thunderstones. Itâs mainly a mosaic of them. âAlthough the thunderstone isnât a rare mineral, the mining rights of the thunderstone are owned by Amos from the Stone family.
âIf he disagrees, we wonât be able to use even the tiniest fragments of thunderstone. I have also been thinking of alternative gemstones that can replace the thunderstone for the past two days.â
Natalie was able to understand the reason behind Anna to prefer the thunderstone.
Firstly, the thunderstone was more cost-effective than other gemstones. Secondly, thunderstones had a higher luminosity than other gemstones, and they would have a more rejuvenating lucidity of Rebirth when made into an actual product.
The reason why Anna had difficulty choosing an alternative was because of these two advantages of the thunderstone. It was rare for any other gemstone to have both benefits simultaneously.
After pondering for a moment, Natalie said, âYour design is perfect. I will need you to follow up with the jewelry craftsman during production. As for the gemstone, I will find a way. The Stone family holds one-third of Loangâs mining rights. Not just for the âRebirthâ series, for Dream Jewelry to grow in the future, it only makes sense to cooperate with them.â
âBut, the Stone familyââ Anna suddenly stopped.
âYou mean to say that Amos is the fiancé of the daughter of Farrington Jewelry?â
âWell, I believe you will use the name Muse in your early advertising,â Anna bit her lip and said, âFarrington Jewelry also came to me and offered me the position as their chief designer two years ago, but I rejected it. The person who looked for me was the daughter of Farrington Jewelryâs owner, Amosâs fiancée, Olivia Jones.â
After hearing Anna out, Natalie seemed to have understood her concerns.
She thought she would only have to worry about Amos. However, Anna had some history with Amos and his fiancée, Olivia.
âI see.â Natalie reassured anna and said, âThis is the design of your first comeback. You may focus on refining the details and leave the rest to me.â
âOkay.â
After sending Anna off, Natalie massaged her temple.
She had plans to have business relations with the Stone family, but Annaâs designs made it so that she had to negotiate the cooperation with the Stone family sooner.
Natalie picked up the phone on her desk and called Yandel.
âYandel, I want you to make an appointment with someone for me. I want to cooperate with him in the future.â
âSure thing. Who will it be?â
âAmos Stone.â
âHim?â Yandel was slightly taken aback.
âWhatâs wrong?â Natalie asked. âDo you know each other?â
âYes.â
Hearing Yandelâs muffled response, Natalie guessed that Yandel and Amos knew each other, and it might not be a good idea for Yandel to propose the cooperation.
âJust make the appointment for me. Iâll talk to him about the cooperation myself.â
âUnderstood.â
At first, Natalie thought that the most challenging part of this cooperation would come during her meeting with Amos. She didnât expect it to be so challenging for her even to meet Amos.
After communicating for three days, there was still no response from Amos.
Natalie couldnât wait any longer.
âItâs not ideal for us to keep waiting for Amos like this,â Natalie said, âYandel, we must take the initiative. Send someone to investigate Amosâs whereabouts. I must meet him no matter what.â
