Maggie lifted her gaze and noticed Vanessa holding an item. It seemed more akin to an armlet than a bracelet, although it could easily function as either.

The whole armlet was decorated with detailed ancient mythology symbols, featuring the yellow gem crafted to resemble a sun, surrounded by small diamonds that radiated a dazzling glow in every direction.

The sun design was nestled within a curved border, with several dangling tassels hanging from the curved outline, lending a touch of exotic charm.

Though the design was stunning, it was not flawless,

Maggie could understand Annie’s intention behind the design, but she would have chosen different gemstones if she had the choice.

“It’s adequate, but even with the gem’s high quality, it doesn’t quite capture the fiery passion of the sun god and seems to lack some passionate vitality,” she replied in a gentle tone.

After hearing this, Vanessa couldn’t resist a laugh. “Maggie, do you really think Annie’s designs are not up to par with yours? Creating these pieces must have taken a lot of hard work, and criticising them might be seen as disrespectful.”

She couldn’t grasp Maggie’s thoughts. She was clearly intelligent but suddenly seemed preoccupied with her relationship with Joseph.

It’s essential to keep in mind that offering criticism on a designer’s work in their own store would likely be poorly received by any designer.

Additionally, Annie was famed for her defiant demeanour and nonchalant approach.

The designer’s efforts certainly deserve respect, but when the work is displayed, it becomes subject to scrutiny by others. Everyone has different aesthetic tastes, as Ms. Brown admires him but I do not.”

Maggie tightened her lips and cast a glance at Joseph beside her, speaking candidly.

Vanessa was also feeling somewhat angry now, not only because Maggie repeatedly embarrassed her but also because she was disparaging the designer’s work inside the designer’s store.

If these words were to reach Annie’s ears, how could we continue to persuade her to join Luster Corporation?

Initially, Vanessa had hoped to guide Maggie towards contemplating a broader perspective.
