“Yep.” Naomi nodded her head and suddenly remembered yesterday’s incident. “Oh yes, you haven’t told me your wishes. I only heard half of it from yesterday.” “My wishes…” Robin prolonged his voice as he stared at Naomi’s pure face with a difficult look. After a while, he finally said, “I haven’t thought of it. I’ll tell you once I get it. Is that alright?”
“Sure.” Without thinking much, Naomi nodded. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
Right then, her phone’s alarm rang. “Oh no. I need to go to Cezanne for the magazine shoot. Lucy will be mad at me if I postpone it again.”
“Alright, go ahead,” Robin said. “Will you be alright being alone in the hospital?” Naomi packed her stuff and looked at Robin worriedly. “Of course, I’ll be fine.” Robin stretched his lip into a smile. In fact, he was not alone. His grandpa had arranged for many maids to look after him. In order to see Naomi, he had a hard time asking them to leave him alone. “Then I’ll be on my way. Call me if you need me. I’ll come right away.” Naomi said while still feeling worried. Robin was the key person for her to protect right now.
“Alright, I know,” Robin replied. “Oh yes, this ointment is for you. To stop the itchiness on your wound.” Before she left, she did not forget to let Robin know the usage of the ointment. Only when Robin knew how to use it, did she leave the hospital. Despite speeding on her way to Cezanne, she was still late. When she was there in the studio, Naomi quickly changed her clothing and stood in front of the camera under the constant supervision of Lucy. Luckily, Naomi was a professional model so they were able to finish in just one morning and that extinguished the fire in Lucy. “Lucy, I’ll be on my way now.” Naomi changed back to her own clothing and bid goodbye to Lucy while smiling guiltily.
“Wait!” Lucy pulled a straight face and stopped Naomi from leaving.
“Er…Lucy, are you still mad at me?” Naomi shrunk as she got ready to be scolded by an adult like a kid.
“I’m not mad. I have something serious to tell you.” After that, Lucy passed a thick pile of documents to Naomi. “The International Jewelry Design Competition is about to start. This is the information about the competition. The due date for the registration is at the end of the month. I think…”
Naomi was stunned but she rejected it without any hesitation. “Lucy, you know I’m not going to attend any jewelry design competitions anymore.”
Lucy frowned, “Naomi, you shouldn’t waste your talent! The past is in the past. I really hope
you will give it a good thought.”
The past… Naomi pulled a straight face. “If it weren’t for the jewelry design competition, mom wouldn’t have gotten on that plane with me and she wouldn’t have left me.” She put down the documents and her tone felt lost, “I used to design for the people I loved. Ever since mom passed away, I can’t think of who I should design it for…” 1
In all honesty, hatred had consumed her heart for the past ten years. How could a person filled with hatred be able to come up with a good design? Lucy sighed as she felt sorry but she was not able to give up, “If you ever change your mind, you can tell me anytime. I will think of a way to help you.” “Thanks, Lucy.” Naomi thanked Lucy with a slightly perfunctory tone when she clearly did not have any interest in the competition. Lucy, too, knew she was not interested in the competition. She diverted the topic as she spoke mysteriously in a low volume, “Naomi, can I ask a favor of you? But you have to promise me, you will keep it a secret.”
