Chapter 114 Being the Queen of My Own
Heated discussions were provoked upon the revealing of the two designing works. As the convention went, Newman Jewelry would promote one major product for the new patch of each season. No one had expected it would come with two key products three years after the last time. Despite the comments saying that was a greedy move, customers just couldn’t move their eyes away the moment these two pieces were exposed to the public. The work on the left, with the name “Door of Heart”, was in the pattern of a silver key centering around a conspicuous rose, which came well from the theme of the gorgeous orange “Lady Charlotte”. Some fine letters below read, “Waiting for you to open the door of my heart”. Audience got so touched by the design, with their comments like — “I’m not an expert of fashion design. I just guess the framework of the key symbols men while the rose
inside, women. Only the right one could get the door of heart opened?” “Since Lady Charlotte basically refers to the feverish passion, I don’t think it’s limited to the love between men and women.” “Indeed. In fact, all those who have locked their heart are longing for someone to reopen it.” “Who wouldn’t want to be the key to open the heart of the one he or she loves?” The one on the right, “Portal of life”, was a ring decorated with diamond. The color of magnificent brilliant
yellow invigorated the chilly stone. There was a little princess between the two roses, which seemed like

one dotes on me like a princess.” This piece, which was obviously aiming at female customers, did strike the chords of women’s heart.
Their comments were —
“That’s exactly what I wanna say now.” “I did long for true love when I was young, dreaming for some man to dote on me like a princess. And
now I’ve ended up as his nanny!” “I’ve long been past the age to be a princess. What I’m working for now is to be a queen that has full
control of her own life!” “I’d rather be a queen than a princess. What a thrilling life I could lead to conquer the world…and gigolos
as well!”
“May I have one ring like that? It must be cool to hang around wearing it…” Comments that flooded in almost covered the whole screen. The presenter thought it the right time to
invite the two designers to present their ideas.
Hailey patted Ava on the shoulder before Ava went on to the stage, “Relax. Just speak up.” Ava nodded vigorously as an encouragement for herself,
Standing at the wing of the stage, Chris smiled at Ava, who was sweeping her fists to get herself relaxed.
“Enjoy your moment in the spotlight, Ava.” he tried to hearten her. “I’ll be the first customer of your work!”
Chris’ remark only paid off for a few seconds, as Ava’s heart then began to beat even more violently. She
was flushed. How she wanted to let him know he was the very inspiration of her design!
At that moment, Ada, who had got used to such a big scene, finally dragged the timid student up to the
stage. Yet Ava turned out to be acting unexpectedly naturally facing the questions of the presenter and journalists. Her eyes even lit up when she came to the part of her designing concept. “Look at that little girl, she’s simply bursting with vitality. That is being young!” That actually reminded Hailey of herself when she was young enough to go with the similar flashes in her eyes. But where had
