Chapter 129 Whatever You Say

After her morning classes, Maggie got a call from Joseph.

Joseph and Vanessa had already reached Misk City and planned to visit the designer, Annie, in the afternoon.

“Maggie, join us this afternoon. I want to pick out some jewelry for Mom and Grandma. You know their tastes best, so your advice would be great,” Joseph said warmly, confident that Maggie wouldn’t decline.

And indeed. Maggie had no intention of refusing.

After she had dealt with Shawn, Joseph and Vanessa went on the hunt for new designers for Luster Corporation.

Even though the Camerons were stepping back into the jewelry business, they already had designers. However, since they were making a big move, injecting fresh talent was necessary.

So, recruiting renowned foreign designers was a crucial step in Ronald’s plan.

“Sure, send me the details.”

Joseph was pleased that Maggie agreed.

At 1:00 PM, a sleek Porsche parked in front of the hotel. Joseph was behind the wheel, and Vanessa sat in the passenger seat.

Observing this. Maggie raised an eyebrow.

“Maggie, it’s been a while!” Vanessa greeted cheerfully, as if any past issues didn’t exist as Maggie joined them in the car and sat in the backseat.

Maggie admired Vanessa’s attitude.

Once Maggie was seated, Vanessa spoke again. “Maggie, there’s water, drinks, and fruit. Help yourself.”

Seeing Vanessa play host, Maggie found it amusing.
