Chapter 89

"Thank you for your trust, Miss Isabel. Do you have any specific preferences when it comes to jewelry styles?" Effie opened her sketchbook with practiced ease, ready to take notes.

Isabel's gaze lingered on Effie's face for a moment, then she smiled, her tone tinged with arrogance. "Designer Bagnold, I assume you're a professional? After all, I'm a public figure—I can't just have any amateur working for me. I need someone with real expertise."

Effie hesitated for an instant, catching the edge in Isabel's voice.

"Miss Isabel, rest assured, I'll design jewelry that perfectly matches your taste and personality. If you're not satisfied, you're always welcome to choose someone else."

Effie's reply was calm and poised, not a hint of nervousness in her demeanor.

Effie nodded, earnest and focused. "Understood. I'll highlight your personal charm in the design and incorporate distinctive elements to ensure the piece is both elegant and striking."

Isabel smiled, her words carrying a hidden meaning. "I trust you—after all, I think we see things the same way."
