Chapter 111
This was absolutely infuriating!]
Seeing Charlotte’s calm composure only made Sonia more frustrated []
But given that she was SC’s protégé, Sonia supposed she’d have to grudgingly accept it.]
“Tine.” Sonia said coolly, “Go ahead and make the pieces. Since you’re SC’s student and all-
Basically, she was doing this for the master’s sake, not Charlotte’s.
Charlotte could read between the lines perfectly. “Miss Vinci, you really don’t need to force yourself. If you like the designs, I’ll create the pieces. But if you still have reservations, I say it again please find someone else. |
Santa’s expression shifted immediately. What the hell was this woman’s problem?
Didn’t she went the commission?
Just because she was SCs student, she thought she could play hard to ger?
is this how you treat all your clients, Ms. Vance?” Sonia’s voice turned sharp
Tm just being straightforward, Miss Vinci,” Charlotte replied evenly]
“Time, whatever. Since you’re being so difficult about it, I won’t waste any more of your time. Your design aesthetic isn’t really my style anyway,” Sonia snapped. Truthfully, Sonia was worried that if she wore the jewelry and it became popular, people would dig into who designed it. She’d essentially be giving Charlotte free publicity. As a public figure attending a major awards ceremony, the last thing she wanted was to inadvertently promote her rival.|
She’d originally approached Charlotte to humiliate her. Since Charlotte was being dismissive, she’d definitely find someone else.|||
“Have a good day, Mise Vinci, Charlotte said politely:
Hopefully they’d never have to work together again
“Oh, I will. By the way, Ms. Vance, there’s one more thing I should clarity. You saw today’s trending news, right? Yesterday I was being stalked by some obsessed fan and I was terrified. When Cassian found out, he rushed right over I hope you don’t get the wrong idea. Sonia couldn’t hide the smugness in her voice.
This had been one of her main reasons for coming here today–she was dying to flaunt this in front of Charlotte, just in case she hadn’t seen the news.]
She wanted to see Charlotte Inok devastated and heartbroken ||
But Sonia was about to be disappointed]
Charlotte glanced at her with mild disinterest. There’s no misunderstanding. My husband already told me about it. He’s always been the helpful type. I’m glad you’re okay–it must be tough being a woman in the public eye.
That simple response left Sonia so angry she could barely breathe.
Finally, Sonia stormed out in a huff.]
Charlotte let out a quiet sigh of relief and went to explain the situation to i
supervisor.
11 was a headache, sure, but better than dealing with Sonters hostility. She’d realized the woman had no good intentions and was just looking for trouble.
How could the possibly work with someone like that
Meanwhile, Calian find moved swiftly, having Philips handle the damage control.
Plalips quickly had the trending topics removed and got the FR department to issue a statement
But plenty of people were sul gossiping, thinking Cassian was protesting too much. They figured he was just worried about Rhodes Global’s reputation]
Standard corporate PR move
Most people didn’t take the dental seriously.
After handling everything. Philips came to Cassian’s office to report. He found his boss frowning, apparently deep in thought
