His Destructive, Toxic Love (Jasper and Eliza)

Chapter 720

Gabe was clearly taken aback. "Half a colleague? Are you into exhibitions or the jewelry biz?"

Eliza gave a gentle smile. "I'm in the jewelry business. Our company, Crystal Clear, has just signed a few young guys as brand ambassadors. Next up, we're diving into exhibitions and promotions. Right now, we're all about high-end, bespoke services. Who knows, maybe we could team up in the future?"

Gabe looked at her, a flicker of admiration in his eyes. Here was a woman who seemed so delicate, yet she was at the helm of a high-end jewelry brand. He was genuinely impressed.

"You're the brains behind Crystal Clear? You guys really shone at the film festival and are a big deal in the industry. We chat about it all the time, but I never guessed you were the one in charge."

Eliza blushed at the praise. "We're all just doing our best; we've been a bit luckier with our breaks."

"When the time's right, we should definitely team up."

"I'd love that," she replied, genuinely eager.
