Chapter 85 A Familiar Feeling

He was even more charismatic in person than in his photos, sitting in the sunlight with

a signing pen in hand, the cufflinks at his sleeves catching the light.

His allure was gentle yet untouchable.

"Mr. Walker, representatives from the Davis Jewelry Department are here," the secretary reminded.

He looked up,"Please, have a seat."

Kennedy put on a charming smile, "Mr. Walker, it's such an honor to finally meet you. It hasn't been easy to get an appointment."

That voice...

Penelope couldn't help but cringe internally.

She coughed twice, trying to signal Kennedy subtly.

But Kennedy didn't pay her any mind and stepped forward to shake hands with Brandon.

Brandon frowned slightly but still shook her hand out of politeness.

Kennedy held on a little too long, "Mr. Walker, we nearly finalized everything last time. Today, I've brought the contract signed by Mr. Davis; we just need your signature to confirm."

Penelope watched... feeling secondhand embarrassment.

It was Kennedy who was so eager to climb the social ladder, and she had the nerve to warn Penelope earlier.

"Hmm," Brandon subtly withdrew his hand.

Penelope couldn't stand it any longer and took out the documents, "Mr. Walker, the contract is here for your review."

Brandon gave Penelope an appreciative glance, nodded, and turned back to his seat. Kennedy glared at Penelope and whispered, "Did I ask for your help?"

"Kennedy, you're representing the image of Davis," Penelope replied. "Please restrain yourself, so as not to leave a bad impression on Mr. Walker."

"I'm your superior; it's not your place to tell me what to do!""

Penelope just shrugged.

After Brandon signed the contract, he looked up at Penelope, "Are you new here? It's my first time seeing you."

"Yes, I've been with Davis for a month."

"To work at Davis means you're talented," said Brandon. "Did you design this season's Adoring Cupid collection?"

Penelope nodded, "Yes, I'm the lead designer for Adoring Cupid, Penelope."

"Penelope," Brandon savored the name and smiled slightly,"Nice name, it has a good ring to it."
