Chapter 31

Chapter 31 “It‘s a female. A woman, and a beautiful one at that. She‘s very capable, and it took a lot of convincing to get her to work here.”

At ten o’clock in the morning, the newly appointed female director showed up on time and came to the jewelry department.

“Hello, I‘m Summer Avelos , and I will assist Mr. Joe in managing the jewelry department. I hope we all get along and focus on strengthening and improving our brand.”

All the colleagues applauded warmly to welcome her.

Gale‘s eyelashes trembled, and she looked back. RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

It turned out to be...

Her college classmate and roommate.

They used to be inseparable and slept in the same bed, sharing all their secrets. They were closer than sisters.

Today, Summer‘s reputation in the jewelry industry soared, and everyone knew of her excellence , while Gale remained unheard of.

The two years in the mental hospital were supposed to be her best youthful years, yet she was trampled by Shawn.

“Director Summer is well–known in the jewelry industry.

Her being here is doing me a favor and taking the workload off me!” Joe said cheerily.

“Yes, Joe, well, you always had the money and vision, just be the boss and enjoy the show!”

The two of them clearly had a good relationship and could joke around casually.

“Come here, Summer. Let me introduce you to someone. Our Chief Designer, Gale,” Joe said. Summer‘s expression changed upon hearing Gale‘s name. She quickly changed her expression. “Hello, Gale.”

“Hello, Summer.”

Summer stared at Gale for a few seconds, then smiled. “I have some ideas, and I want to talk to Gale privately. May I?”

Before she finished, Joe nodded enthusiastically. “Of course! You are my right–hand man. You should just go ahead!”

“I‘m still learning.” Summer walked up to Gale. “Come to my office.” “Alright.” Joe touched his chin and said to himself, “Well, two beautiful ladies, aren‘t I lucky? Shawn will be so jealous!”

In the Office.

As soon as the door closed, Summer immediately changed her expression. “Gale! I really didn‘t expect to see you here!”

“Well...”

“Don‘t call me that!” Summer walked in front of her angrily. “Have you ever considered me a friend? You just left after graduation and disappeared without a trace? Did you know how many times I cried and worried about you!

Gale lowered her gaze and said, “I‘m sorry.”

“What happened to you? You didn‘t even bother to tell me? I went to your house, and the house was sold. I asked your neighbors, and they kept silent. You were gone without a trace!”

“Summer...”

“I can‘t bear hearing you call my name!”

Gale had to keep silent.

Summer was livid. “Okay, you don‘t have to explain. You can go now. Just pretend we never knew each other!”

She nodded and turned around silently. “Hey! You...” Summer was almost driven to madness by her. “You really don‘t want me as a friend?”

Hearing this made Gale feel uncomfortable.

Gale replied, “Summer, I have a very bad life. I am a very unfortunate person. Just stay away from me to be safe. I don‘t want to drag you down.”

“You are now the Chief Designer of the jewelry brand under Wood Group. What can be so bad about your life? Back then, in school, you crushed everything! With your ability, you can create a brand by yourself and run it prosperously. You are not even achieving your fullest potential!”

Gale could only smile bitterly. “Well, there have been many things that have happened. It‘s better that you don‘t know.”

“Okay, okay, see if you can hide it from me for the rest of your life!”

Summer stopped herself.

Gale also felt very uncomfortable, but when she thought of her destitute life, she did not want to drag Summer through the mud
