The Road to Rebirth Her Fresh Start and His Late Sorrow by Helena R. Bates

Chapter 69

Lenard tripped over his words to fill Nancy in on the Sandro Group. "Nancy, this past year, the Sandro Group has been the dark horse of Ardenweald, bursting onto the scene out of nowhere. They might not have hosted many events, but each has been a hit, and their jewelry line has skyrocketed to top-tier status."

"And get this," he leaned in, whispering, "I heard through the grapevine that the big boss of the Sandro Group is the same guy running Lumina Corporation in Starfield City."

There was no need to elaborate on the Lumina Corporation, the big kahuna of Starfield City, dabbling in everything from entertainment to real estate, not to mention their leading edge in Al technology. Nancy narrowed her eyes thoughtfully. If the head of the Sandro Group was the CEO of Lumina Corporation, a collaboration could be a golden opportunity.

Lenard clenched his fists, his passion evident. "Nancy, you've been through the wringer with that jerk. It's time to claim your glory."

It was time to claim your glory.

Listening to Lenard, Nancy couldn't help but smile faintly. "You're right. But what makes you sure the Sandro Group would want to collaborate with me?"

Lenard seemed almost offended by the question. "Why wouldn't they want to work with you? The Sandro Group dropped hints they've seen your jewelry designs. Why else would I set this up?"

He paused, eyeing her with concern. "Nancy, please don't tell me you've been gaslit by that loser. Damn, you're the most talented designer I've ever met. The only reason why our mentor's ahead is that he's been at it longer. But skill-wise? You're unmatched."

Nancy raised an eyebrow. "Would the mentor appreciate you talking about him like that?"
