Chapter 629 A Habit of Chatting With the Designer

In the studio, Charlotte listened attentively as the girl Leanna had assigned to her introduced the structure of the place, product arrangements, and batch numbering as well as how to run the cashier, print invoices, and enter the accounts. It was all things she had never known. Soon, Charlotte's focus drifted to the cafe opposite even though her gaze was still fixed on Leanna.

A hand waving before her eyes made her come abruptly back to attention and the shopgirl asked her, "Have you remembered everything I told you?"

Charlotte replied uncertainly, "Maybe?"

The shopgirl could see that she didn't and sighed, about to repeat her words when a customer came in. The shop assistant thereafter informed her, "Go take a seat. I'll tell you about it later."

"Alright, thank you." Charlotte settled obediently on the couch and soon, a gorgeous woman wearing sunglasses came in.

The shopgirl quickly approached the woman. "Hello, how can I help you?"

The woman removed her sunglasses. "I want to custom-make a ring."

"Alright, please follow me to the lounge and I'll make a detailed record."

"It's too troublesome. I want to see your boss directly."

The girl apologized. "Sorry, Miss. This is part of our store's procedure."

The woman crossed her arms, looking reluctant. "What procedure? Can't you change it? Plus, you are here to run a business, right? Your purpose is to serve your customers. You don't need me to tell you that."

The shopgirl paused, sounding hesitant. "Then please wait a moment. I'll ask my superior."

The woman made an idle noise of assent and sat on a nearby couch, right opposite Charlotte who was already drowsy. The woman crossed her pale legs and placed one hand on the armrest as she looked at Charlotte. "Are you here to custom-make something too?"

Charlotte stopped mid-yawn and shook her head. "I work here."


The woman's expression shifted minutely as she studied Charlotte's outfit, probably thinking there was something wrong with the girl since she was working here despite being clad head-to-toe in luxury items.

The shopgirl came out soon after. "Hello, my boss is already waiting in the lounge. I'll take you there."

The woman replied distractedly in assent and got up while holding her purse. After the woman was gone, Charlotte stretched herself and finally finished yawning.

After the shopgirl had taken the woman to the lounge, she closed the door and went off to make coffee.

The woman sat opposite Leanna. "So, you are McK?"

Leanna smiled. "Hello, how may I address you?"

"Call me Freya."

"Okay. What kind of ring do you want?"

Freya leaned back against the couch and smiled. "I have a habit of chatting with the designer first before picking her. If her character and behavior suit my taste, I will ask her to help me design something."

Leanna raised her eyebrows but did not say anything. "What do you want to talk about?"

"I heard that you were the winner of the Emerging Designer Competition, yet you voluntarily let go of the chance to study in Aeras, right?"

"Yes."

"Why?"

Leanna maintained a polite smile. "It's personal and I can't tell you about it."

Freya considered it. "It's okay if you don't want to disclose it. You beat so many capable designers with more experience than you in the designer competition several months ago to get the top spot. Do you have anything to say about that?"

"If I was humbler, I would say I got lucky or that all my seniors weren't at their best. However, you clearly don't want such an answer since you asked about it in that way. I could only say that it was my ability."

Freya probably did not expect her to answer in such a fashion and she was stunned before smiling. "I saw your designs before and they look captivating, but not to the point where you beat them based on your ability."

"Everyone has their own opinions and interpretations about different designs. I didn't get the approval of all the judges when I participated."

"I agree with what you've said."

Leanna continued, "Do you have anything else you want to talk about?"

Freya raised her eyebrows. "Of course. To be honest, I am very curious about you. So, I want to talk more with you."

The shopgirl brought in their coffees at that very moment and was frightened by the atmosphere in the room. She quickly put down their cups and left.

Leanna replied, "Only about work-related issues. If you want to ask about personal issues, we may regretfully have to stop here."
