The woman was startled at the door. “Excuse me. I don’t know where the lounge is...”

Clarence paused his pace. He looked over from aside, only to find an unknown woman standing at the door. He creased his handsome brows slightly and asked, “Who are you?”

Modesty was quite awkward. She clenched her hands in nervousness, blushing. “I’m Modesty Parker, a jewelry designer from SG Jewelry Magazine. I came here to thank you, Mr. Conrad...”

Clarence looked quite annoyed. “Did you come here alone?”

“Yes, I did.” Modesty bit her lower lip and didn’t know what to say. Suddenly, she recalled his order when she came in. Instantly, she seemed to have grabbed the straw to save her life. She asked, “Mr. Conrad, do you want to have a cup of coffee? I can go there now...”

“No, thanks.” Clarence sat on the sofa with his legs crossed. He looked quite indifferent and aloof. “What can I do for you?

Modesty walked in and closed the office door. She took a few steps forward. Looking at the handsome man in front, she blushed deeply. “I’m Modesty. Mr. Conrad, do you still remember me?”

“No, I don’t.”

His tone was already with some coldness. H was running out of patience already.

Biting her lower lip, Modesty explained, “Three years ago, I got the first prize of Young Designers' Contest, so I got the financial support from Conrad Group to study in France. I’ve just come back not long ago. Now I’m the executive jewelry designer in SG Jewelry Magazine. I came here to thank you deliberately, Mr. Conrad. If it weren’t for you, I...”

Clarence interrupted her without any expression, “Wasn’t Stella Radomil the winner of the first prize?”

Modesty didn’t seem to expect that he would know Stella’s name. Her expression changed slightly but soon was hidden. “Yes, I won the second prize. However, Mr. Conrad, you said she had taken the contest as a business opportunity and she didn’t deserve the chance because she wanted to make profits from it. Her qualification was canceled and I went to France instead.”

Clarence didn’t speak for a few seconds. Then he asked, “Have you done?”

Modesty didn’t get it. “What?”

“If you’ve done thanking me, you can leave now.”
