Chapter 148
Surprised, Jocelyn turned around to look at Skyler. “Do you need anything else?” Hearing her flat tone, Skyler’s mood soured completely! How would he not know that the only reason why Jocelyn thanked him honestly was just because he helped her? Thinking of this, he suddenly stopped. Did he want anything else besides her gratitude? Skyler’s expression turned dark. He really felt like he had gone out of his mind! Skyler calmly asked, “Do you wish to look for your own biological parents?” Jocelyn pursed her lips and shook her head. “For the time being, no. They threw me away so maybe they didn’t want me at all. They might not even want me looking for them as long as I’m still alive.”
Skyler said calmly, “I understand, you can go now!” Yvie greeted Jocelyn the moment she returned to the design department. “Jocelyn, there is a customer looking for you to customize some jewelry. They are in the reception room right now!”
Jocelyn nodded as she restrained her emotions. “Bring in the contract and my notebook, I will head over now!”
Yvie nodded and immediately went to retrieve the items.
Jocelyn entered the reception room and looked at other with a smile. “Hello! I suppose you’re the one who is looking for me to design some jewelry?”
The customer smiled. “I came here on my boss’s behalf!” Jocelyn picked her eyebrows and said, “So you’re not the one asking for customized jewelry?”. The customer shook their head. “No, our boss is very busy. I just came here on his behalf today to sign a contract with Designer White. As for the requirements for the jewelry customization, our boss will consult Designer White personally!” Jocelyn’s eyes flashed. “Does your boss really want to decide on me designing without looking at my work?”
The customer chuckled, “As I said, I came here on his behalf. My boss has seen the jewelry you customized and he likes them very much!”
Yvie came in at that moment with a contract and notebook.
Jocelyn kept thinking that something was off somewhere. The customer pitched a ballpark price, paid a deposit, and then signed the contract quickly.
Jocelyn still felt that something was wrong by the time the other party has left. When work was over, Jocelyn received a strange phone call.
“Miss White!”
“Excuse me, you are?” All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
“I asked my assistant to sign a jewelry customization contract with Miss White this afternoon. How forgetful you are, Miss White, you’ve already forgotten so soon!” The person’s tone was light and modest.
Jocelyn immediately responded in a dignified manner, “My apologies, I was not aware that it was you. Are you calling now to discuss the jewelry customization?”
The other smiled and nodded. “Yes, I’m rather busy and will be meeting a client at e Bar in the evening. If Miss White doesn’t mind, we can discuss the details for the jewelry customization at that bar tonight. How about I invite Miss White for a drink by the way?”
Jocelyn frowned. “We have no precedent for working together at a bar!” The other’s voice sank. “Miss White, do you not plan on humoring me? Do you want to renege the contract?”
Jocelyn suddenly recalled that when the other’s assistant had signed the contract this afternoon, they had specifically written up a contract with the highest deposit ratio and the greatest responsibility
attached to the designer for a breach of contract.
Jocelyn’s expression turned a little ugly. She finally had an idea of what was wrong this afternoon
The contract today was like a special pit trap dug especially for her. “I have no intention of breaking the contract!”
of course, she could break the contract but if things were to get serious, the company would have to pay for it. She already owed Skyler a favor and did not wish for him to have to step up because of her affairs.
“Then, I’ll wait for Miss White at e Bar. By the way, I forgot to introduce myself to you, my name is Dan Lester!” Saying that, he immediately hung up the call without giving Jocelyn the chance to speak
Jocelyn frowned. Thinking over and over again, she decided to go over and meet Dan for a while At worst, she just would not touch the wine there.
She wanted to see what was so special about Dan.
Jocelyn went back to Villa No. 1 and changed into some casual clothes. After putting pepper spray into her bag, she put on a pair of clean flat shoes and then set off for e Bar.
To be honest, she did not look like she was going to discuss cooperation, rather she looked like she was going to a fight.
It was already dark when Jocelyn arrived at the bar and it was very lively at the entrance.
The moment she entered e Bar, someone greeted her and brought her to Dan’s box seat.
Jocelyn did not notice a pair of malicious eyes staring at her from a dark corner of the bar hall due to that, watching her as she entered Dan’s box seat.
When the door to the box seat closed, Yvonne then looked away. She smirked, finished the cocktail in the glass, and then got up to leave the bar. Dan was no angel and Jocelyn was in it for a reckoning today!
Jocelyn would come to know how powerful she was!
Skyler had not attended her birthday party the night before, which made her a laughingstock Today, she learned that the reason why Skyler had not come was that Jocelyn was such ab*tch!
In that case, she did not have to be courteous toward Jocelyn. Speaking of which, Dan’s people had gone looking for Jocelyn for jewelry customization today and had also made the connection!

She told Dan that Jocelyn and Skyler had a very special relationship. If she could make Jocelyn suffer a little loss, it would definitely provoke Skyler. Yvonne also knew that cooperating with Dan was tantamount to asking for the impossible. However, she could no longer stand it! Dan could not do anything to Skyler but he would not go soft for this little designer! As long as he could make Jocelyn suffer a bit, he could still afford the risk. The only thing that surprised Yvonne was that Dan would act so quickly! Thinking of what would happen tonight, Yvonne smiled viciously. When Jocelyn entered the box seat, she saw that the men and women in the box seat were roughhousing
Jocelyn’s expression was a little ugly. She turned around and was about to leave.
When in the end, a yellow-haired man immediately stood in front of her. “Yo, why don’t we play together since you’re already here. Why are you in such a hurry to leave?!”
