Chapter 735

Chloe quickly chimed in with a friendly tone, "No worries, Ms. X."

Edgar let out a dramatic sigh, his voice carrying a hint of accusation, "So, you were the one who tossed my rose brooch design into the toilet?"

Chloe was caught off guard for a moment. Then realization dawned on her. The rose brooch was it the same one Lisa snagged for fifty million at the QUEEN jewelry show?

Suddenly, Chloe was at a loss for words. She had, in fact, used the brooch in a bit of a scheme that day. But it never crossed her mind that it was one of Ms. X's designs. Designers often treat their creations like their own children. How could anyone tolerate such disrespect?

Chloe hadn't expected such a grilling on her first day. But she knew she was in the wrong. She apologized, "Ms. X, I didn't think it through. I'm really sorry."
