Everyone was browsing leisurely through the jewelry exhibition.
Despite how shiny the jewelry and everyone was dressed up, none of them could compare to a fraction of Xyla Quest and Sharon Lindt’s brightness.
The two of them were like shimmering beads. Wherever they went, light encapsulated them and made every object and person around them seem dim in comparison.
They were both stunned by the jewelry that came into sight.
Sharon, especially, was as happy as a child.
She kept tugging Xyla along to look at everything around them. She wasn’t tired at all.
Soon, a standalone glass cabinet attracted Sharon’s attention.
There was a snake-shaped necklace in the cabinet.
The necklace was engraved with plentiful diamonds. It looked unique as it rotated around a plastic mannequin’s neck.
“This design looks so special…” Sharon’s eyes were glimmering as she looked at the necklace and complimented. Her eyes kept glowing.
Xyla nodded. She thought it was alright.
After that, Xyla’s gaze landed upon the designer's nameplate in the lower right corner.
‘Helen’ was written on it…
Xyla was very familiar with this designer. She was an internationally renowned jewelry designer…
Helen had worked in the jewelry industry for fifty years.
Her name as the designer brand used to sell like hot cakes in foreign countries.
However, in recent years, with new designers joining the industry and the rise of other designer brands, Helen’s designs no longer sold.
