Ma'am, The World Is Waiting For Your Divorce

Chapter 46

Skyler froze as he looked at Davis in shock. He did not expect this at all.

It was no wonder the two of them seemed to be so close to each other.

He opened a document folder and asked, “Why didn’t you mention this before?” Davis laughed bitterly and told him honestly, “I’ve not been in contact with my close friends in university for a long time. This is the first time that I’m meeting Jocelyn in three years’ time!” The discomfort that Skyler felt in his heart dissipated slightly. Skyler did some self-reflection. He had always been a dominant person. He must have started to view Jocelyn as his personal possession. That was the reason why he felt uncomfortable about it.

After all, they were both married. He sat up and leaned against his office chair. He then spoke up in a seemingly casual tone,” Since you’re a close acquaintance of hers, you should understand her well. Tell me what you know about her!”

Davis pondered upon it for a moment before saying calmly, “She’s a righteous person. Her talent in design is pretty great!”

“How great is she?” Skyler looked at him with a raised brow.

Davis told him the truth, “She’s the most talented one among all the designers that I know of!”

Skyler’s pupils constricted slightly as he said flatly, “I wouldn’t expect you to rate her so highly!” Jocelyn went downstairs with everyone else. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Before she walked into the design department, the news about her participation in the Century Jewelry Competition had already spread out. However, everyone simply mentioned it vaguely before her. They

did not dare to say anything directly to her face. Jocelyn did not mind what they said. However, someone suddenly mentioned private custom clients. Everyone immediately started throwing shade at her.

“No matter how capable some people are, they can never compare to Josie. Josie has the most private custom clients in Prosperity Jewelry!”

“Yes, other than the main products of every season, the design department mainly focuses on producing private custom-made products. There is a minimum threshold for private orders every season!”

“I guess nobody would come to designers with no true talent!”

Jocelyn was stunned. She flipped through the documents by the side and looked at the private custom orders

There was truly a minimum threshold for private orders. This threshold referred to the minimum number of orders from clients each month.

If a designer did not reach the target each month, their bonus would be deducted. If they did not reach the target consecutively for three months, they would be fired.

Jocelyn’s gaze flashed. She recalled how some people had asked her to design customized pieces for them when she was working in Oasis Jewelry. However, Oasis Jewelry did not allow private customizations. Howard did not allow her to take on such projects as well.

Now that she had the chance to do so, she would contact the people that had previously asked her for private customizations in a few days’ time and ask them if they still required her services.

Jocelyn was pondering upon this when Yvie approached her with an outraged expression on her little face. 1

Jocelyn poked her face and chuckled, “Why are you unhappy again?”

Yvie lowered her voice so that only the two of them could hear their conversation. She cautiously spoke up, “I heard that Fiona doesn’t have as many private custom clients as she does now in the past. When Josie left, she handed most of her clients over to Fiona!”

Jocelyn was stunned. She understood what Yvie meant. Josie must have recommended Fiona to all of her private custom clients.

Under such circumstances, most clients would choose to accept Josie’s recommendation and let Fiona design some jewelry pieces for them.

It was no wonder Fiona always took Josie’s side!

Jocelyn glanced at Yvie and laughed. “It’s nothing. As long as we’re capable, we don’t need to worry about having no clients!”

Yvie looked at Jocelyn without blinking when she noticed just how calm she was. Suddenly, she felt rather curious. “Jocelyn, why did you give all your design drafts to Lily White in the

past?!”

She clearly remembered that Jocelyn had said that she had given her drafts to her willingly. Jocelyn laughed and said, “Back then, I didn’t really have the urge to put my name out there. I only wanted to live an ordinary life. Besides…” “My ex-boyfriend didn’t want me to be overly famous. He always said that taller trees in the woods will surely get their tops blown off. He told me that I don’t need to compete against others since I can be outstanding on my own. He wants me to be a full-time housewife!” Yvie knew everything that had been posted about Jocelyn online. She felt extremely angered at how unfairly Jocelyn was treated. “But Lily and him…”

Yvie did not say the remaining words, but Jocelyn could guess what she planned to say.

She glanced at Yvie and chuckled lightly. “I was extremely infuriated back then. However, after calming down and thinking things through for a couple of days, it’s hard to throw all the blame at one person!”

She wondered if Howard had ever liked her. She figured that he had once liked her. After all, she had once felt his true feelings for her.

Perhaps he had lost his passion for her due to her ambivalent attitude toward him. Although he was a scumbag for cheating on her with Lily, relationship problems as such could not be fully blamed on one person!

Yvie noticed the distant expression on Jocelyn’s face. It seemed like she did not want to talk more about it anymore. She then changed the topic. “The other employees from the design department always talk behind your back!”

Jocelyn remained nonchalant. “People tend to talk behind your back. Don’t pay it any mind. Don’t make enemies easily either. There are so many people in the design department. Not everyone is our enemy!”

She paused and added, “Besides, it’s hard to tell who’s the true enemy. Be careful while working in the future!”

She could tell that Yvie truly liked her. Jocelyn genuinely wished her all the best as well. Yvie nodded. However, she could not help but say, “It seems like Director Lang regards you highly. With Director Lang looking after us, they should keep their behaviors in check!” At the mention of Davis, Jocelyn suddenly recalled that she had forgotten to tell Lexie about this news.

She picked up her phone and walked outside immediately. “Yvie, get to work first. I’m going out to make a call!”

When Lexie picked up Jocelyn’s call, she was going downstairs after completing a major project. Jocelyn’s voice was extremely excited from the other end of the phone. “Lexie, guess who I met?”

Lexie was upset as she did not manage to find Chance last night. She asked dispiritedly, “Who is it?”

Jocelyn laughed lightly and said, “It’s Chance!”
