A Call That Changed Her Entire Life novel Chapter 68

Although what had happened in the banquet was very surprising, nobody dared to spread rumours, because Jacob had suppressed the big news outlets. Besides, Tina was not willing to believe that Jacob would fall in love with a woman like Emily.

Tina deeply hated her, because not only did Emily steal the limelight from her at the banquet, she also made her lose face in front of Jacob!

Lately, she had been planning to go to Jacob's house to apologize to him, as it would give her an excuse to spend some time with him. However, she could not make him see her even for just one time.

Tina was incensed, blaming all her misery on Emily alone. Her best friend Jasmyn, shared a bitter hatred towards Emily as well, so she offered advice to Tina.

"Emily is a jewelry designer, isn't she? Perhaps we can ask her to design jewelry for us. What do you think of that idea? As the old saying goes, 'Customer is God'. So if we ask her to design jewelry for us, we can purposely make her life miserable!"

In truth, the idea came out of Rose's devious mind. She told it to Jasmyn, and Jasmyn took it to Tina.

Tina considered it as an excellent idea and agreed with it at once. She asked someone to call LA Jewelry on her behalf, and chose Emily to design her jewelry.

After a few days, at the LA Company.

As soon as Emily got to the office, her secretary told her that the clients who had asked her to design a jewelry for them a few days ago were waiting for her now. Judging from their clothes and mannerisms, they seemed to be important people.

Emily took some time to prepare herself and then went into the VIP room. To her surprise, the important clients waiting in the room were the two ladies who had deliberately caused problems for her at the banquet last time.

"Are you the chief designer of LA?" Tina looked at her with scorn and said,"It looks like that you are not up to much."

Emily remained polite and kept smiling courteously, as she said,"Ladies, I have worked out the prototype of the customized jewelry you ordered the last time. Would you like to have a look?"

Jasmyn snorted contemptuously and said,"Of course, or else why would we come here? Do you think we are so bored that we've come here just to see your funny face?"

Emily did not let them get on her nerves. These silver-spoon fed ladies were brought up in an extraordinary environment, so they did not know how to use profane words like regular people did. Thick-skinned, Emily could easily put up with their sneering and whining without breaking a sweat.

Besides, she had been subjected to lots of words that were much more vulgar than theirs, so she did not mind them at all.

Tina ordered several jewelries, which could be counted as a big order for their company. Emily asked someone to bring her file of design drawings in, and handed them to the two ladies politely.

While Tina did not even cast a glance at them, Jasmyn snatched the drawings from Emily and flipped through the pages without even going through the designs carefully, and said scornfully,"What is this? This is pure rubbish. You are an insult to jewelry design!"

Jasmyn tore the drawings into pieces and threw them into the air as she said that. The small pieces of paper, looked like snow falling during winter nights.

"How could you..." Completely shocked and surprised, Emily never expected that Jasmyn would just rip her drawings to pieces.

"So what? You think I did wrong?" Jasmyn gave her a glance with complacency and said,"I've got nothing against you. It's just that your design drawings are rubbish. Now your designs look much better than they ever did."

Emily gently pursed her lips and tried her best to restrain her discontent, and said,"Okay, we will work out the designs that will satisfy you."

"Satisfy us?" Tina finally looked her straight in the eye and said,"Do you know that these jewels are meant to be worn in my wedding with Jacob? If you cannot impress me, I suppose this company will close down!"

'Wedding?'

Just as Tina had intended, Emily sensitively caught the key word in her sentence.

'Are Jacob and the Lady Tao getting married?

Why am I feeling a little bit uncomfortable to hear this news?

Jacob already has a partner, but he still flirts with me and treats me like an object. Yes, maybe that's why I feel uncomfortable, not that I have feelings for him or anything.

When Jacob gets married, he will never be able to come to me and flirt with me. I can't wait for that day! Yes! That is it!'
