Edgar and His Destined Wife novel Chapter 99

Chapter 99 Done With It

Now it was Jean’s turn to be shocked. They had indeed met before, although that was two years ago at one of her teacher’s houses. Back then, she had not spoken to him.

“We did, two years ago, at Mr. Salvador’s house.” Jean told him truthfully, but Sky merely nodded. It seems, he doesn’t remember. Jean lowered her head and did not say another word.

There were already rumors of her entering the company with her connections. She did not want another rumor to spread. Very quickly, the selection process ended.

The team she was put into had four other MON & Co. designers. It seemed like they all knew Sky well, but that they were all afraid of him. Jean knew she was a newcomer, so she decided to observe quietly. Having not said anything, the other four quickly assigned her the heavy-duty work.

“So, you’re okay with moving the equipment at the site tomorrow, right?” Zoe Hardly ordered. Zoe wasn’t too senior in age, but she spoke with authority.

Jean gave the badge on her chest a glance.

Design section. She must know what she’s doing.

Jean nodded her head, “Got it.”

The four of them came together again and started to discuss the pieces and how to coordinate them. Very obviously, Jean had become the errand-runner.

All the other teams were in similar situations, some had split into twos and threes, and some were just doing individual work. That was the thing about designers; they were boastful and hardly yielded to others.

Jean had seen many of these kinds of people at school and was used to it. She sat quietly to the side, thinking to herself. Then, she felt a piercing gaze on her.

She looked over and saw Xander Quade.

He was talking to Sky Wilton outside in the hallway. She couldn’t hear anything as the door was closed, so she looked at them through the mirror. She wrinkled her brows as she thought about his smile during the selection. She watched as they walked back to their own offices.。

Once Jean pushed open the door, she saw Kellan and Sally waiting for her.

“Congratulations on being chosen, Jean!” Sally greeted excitedly. “Can I bring you food tomorrow? I want to see how a shooting goes, who knows, I might even see a celebrity!”

Jean could tell that she was sincerely happy for her.

“I’ll send you the shooting location later. If there’s a lunch break, I’ll let you know, then you won’t have to rush over.”

Jean took her phone out and saw a receipt for a payment. She squinted at it.

Winnie was pretty quick, but this number isn’t right.

On the other hand, Kellan was looking at Jean with eyes full of envy. “The people Mr. Wilton heads usually moves quite quickly in the industry. Maybe, you too, will soon have people working under you.”

Jean sent the location to Sally and put her phone back while clearing her things to get off work. She did not even look up when she asked, “Are you jealous?”

“Of course.”

“Then you shouldn’t just sit around and wait for the opportunity to come. Do you think that lottery was all based on luck?” Jean said slowly and deliberately, her face calm.
