Chapter 1492


    Thssa turned around, her eyesnding on a face that radiated a gentle and schrly charm. The


    man, Callum Gordon, wore frameless sses and his lips curved into a warm, spring breeze-like


    smile.

    Seeing him, Thssa''s eyes widened in surprise. "Mr. Gordon!"


    It had been three years since shest saw Callum!


    Three years ago, Callum had been in a sorry state, with a broken wrist and leg courtesy of a scuffle


    with Lysander, bandages wrapping his injuries. Now, however, he was the picture of health, as


    charming and refined as the day they first met.


    Upon hearing her voice, Callum turned and was momentarily surprised. "Thssa!"


    After a brief pause, realization dawned on him, and he shed a warm smile. "So, you''re the


    designer for this project. What a coincidence."


    "I was actually about to exin that I''m not the lead designer," Thssa started.


    Reginald interjected, "Since you two are acquainted, I''ll spare the introductions. Callum and I are


    business partners; I handle the domestic production of jewelry while he takes care of international


    sales. We''re two halves of a whole; indispensable to one another. So, when ites to jewelry


    designs, both of us need to be on board."


    To ensure Thssa understood, Reginald borated, "I evaluate the designs from a production


    standpoint, focusing on factors such as manufacturing feasibility and craftsmanship. Callum, on the


    other hand, gauges market trends and consumer preferences overseas."


    Producing and selling jewelry, much like fashion, relies on achieving a bnce between


    manufacturability, craftsmanship, and market appeal. Only when a design meets these criteria can it


    seed in the market and be profitable.


    Thssa nodded in understanding. "Of course, ourpany has taken all of that into ount.


    Whether it''s target demographics or craftsmanship, I''ve preparedprehensive documentation.


    Here, please take a look."


    After sitting down next to Reginald, Thssa handed over the prepared documents for their review.


    The documents detailed the design philosophy, materials, and target demographics.


    After Callum and Reginald finished reviewing the documents, they closed the folder.


    Thssa watched them anxiously, her career—and by extension, Hertha''s—hanging in the bnce.


    Beforeing, her manager had hinted that since Hertha had been out recovering for so long


    without contributing to thepany, she might be let go if this design didn''t sell.


    Hertha had two kids to support and Bridget''s sry to pay. If this project failed, her family would be


    in dire straits.


    So, Thssa was particrly eager for Callum and Reginald''s feedback.


    After they closed the folder, Thssa looked from Callum to Reginald, anxious for their response.


    "I''ve looked over your target audience, focusing mainly on couples and wedding bands. I think it''s a


    good direction, considering most jewelry purchases are made by soon-to-be-married couples,"


    Callum approved of her design.


    Thssa let out a sigh of relief, but still looked nervously at Reginald, uncertain of his opinion.


    Reginald, stroking his beard thoughtfully with his deep gaze fixed on Thssa, said, "Don''t worry,


    we have one more person whose input we need on your design."


    Thssa was surprised; she thought it was just the two of them today.


    As she pondered this, Reginald took out his phone and sent a message.


    Just then, the waiter served their meal, politely suggesting, "Enjoy your meal."


    Thssa, making conversation, asked, "Mr. Gordon, Mr. Whitman, shall we start eating now or wait


    for the other person to arrive?"


    The meal was on her, as thepany had promised to cover the expenses.
