Chapter 45
Skyler suddenly felt rather displeased.
He walked to his seat and said coldly, “You guys are so noisy. Do you not intend to have a meeting anymore? Do you think this is a market?”
Actually, everyone had already quietened down when Skyler walked into the conference room. Now that he was throwing a tantrum, nobody dared to say anything. Davis noticed how Skyler’s gaze was fixed on him. “President Moore, I’m sorry. I was being disrespectful toward you!” Skyler shouted out coldly, “Let’s have the meeting!”
Skyler seemed to be at odds with Davis. He asked him to present the takeaways from the previous season and discuss the progress plans for the next season. Luckily, Davis was rather capable. These tasks were not difficult for him at all. After Davis finished speaking, Skyler spoke up immediately. “There are three important points that the design department of Prosperity Jewelry needs to focus on. Firstly, we must raise our designers’ profiles through all sorts of large-scale competitions. That way, the company will be able to gauge your skills. Secondly, all of you need to hand in the design drafts for the new pieces next season based on your own capabilities!”
Nobody said anything. Previously, Jocelyn did not really understand how the design department of Prosperity Jewelry operated. She felt like Skyler’s words were directed at her.
Skyler then added, “The last and most important point is our private custom clients. Each designer has their own private list of clients. They must customize their client’s pieces according to their client’s requests. That’s the way a premium jewelry company like Prosperity Jewelry operates. Designers that don’t have a good understanding of these criteria and without private custom customers should look into it after this meeting!”
Skyler cast a glance at Jocelyn while speaking. The others might not have caught Skyler’s gaze, but Jocelyn had noticed it. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
She knew that Skyler’s words were directed at her. She was the newest addition to the design department at Prosperity Jewelry. Who else did not have private custom clients other than her?
Skyler ignored Jocelyn’s reaction and added, “There’s another announcement that I’d like to make in today’s meeting. After a meeting with the company executives, we have all decided that Miss Jocelyn White’s work is an original piece. She didn’t commit plagiarism. Therefore, we intend to let her continue participating in the Century Jewelry Competition a representative of our company! Do all of you have any thoughts on that?”
Nobody dared to say anything after Skyler finished speaking. Century Jewelry had certain participation criteria. Even an ordinary five-year employee might not be able to obtain the right to participate in the competition. However, Jocelyn had obtained the right to participate in the competition as soon as she arrived at the company. It was impossible for everyone not to be jealous!
Just then, Davis spoke up, “President Moore, the design department doesn’t have any opinions on this. We believe in Miss White’s capabilities as well!”
Skyler huffed coldly when he heard what Davis told Jocelyn. “The meeting ends here. Director Lang, come to my office for a while!”
After speaking, Skyler walked out with large strides. Davis bid Jocelyn farewell and followed Skyler to his office. As soon as Davis entered Skyler’s office, Skyler turned around to look at Davis. Davis could not tell if Skyler was pleased or angry. The tone of his voice was rather weird.“ What do you think about Jocelyn White?” Davis was stunned. “Didn’t you recruit Miss White, President Moore?” Skyler’s gaze darkened as he took off his suit jacket and threw it on the sofa. He walked toward his desk and said,
“Both of you seem like you’re extremely close! People might even think that you’re the one who recruited her to the company!” Davis’s gaze flashed. What was he trying to imply? He felt slightly confused. What was with Skyler’s attitude toward Jocelyn? He had given Jocelyn the right to participate in the Century Jewelry Competition during the meeting just now. However, he had also pointed out that Jocelyn did not have any private custom clients. He was giving her opportunities while putting her down at the same time. Was this Skyler’s new way of dealing with his employees? Upon noticing how quiet Davis was, Skyler huffed lightly and said, “Why aren’t you speaking now? Is it that hard for you to reply to my question?” Davis shook his head at once and explained, “I only knew that the new designer was Jocelyn after starting work today morning!” After hearing the tone of his voice, Skyler finally realized what was going on. He frowned and asked, “Have both of you known each other?” Davis laughed and said, “She’s my junior from the same major in university!”
