    Chapter 742: New Project


    J held her breath anxiously as she waited for the call to be picked up, but she was met with a cold


    robotic voice that told her that this number didn''t exist.It seemed that whoever was after her was well-


    prepared.


    Obviously, the person who had sent her the text didn''t want to be traced, so they had the number they


    used erased right after sending the message.


    Although she wasn''t techie, J knew it wouldn''t be difficult to do such a thing.Now, she was more


    certain that it wasn''t Charis''s ghost.


    Whoever was behind this just wanted to use Charis as a decoy to scare J.


    But what did they want? Why were they doing this to her? J racked her brains, trying to recall


    whether she had wronged any other person who had been around Charis...


    Who could it be?


    "Hello? Earth to J! You forgot to turn off the water!"


    Suddenly, Elizabeth came out of nowhere and tapped J''s shoulder from behind.


    Only then did J snap out of her trance.She quickly turned off the tap.


    "What''s wrong? Are you okay?"


    Elizabeth could see that J''s mind was still elsewhere.She couldn''t help but frown in concern.


    "What''s going on, J? You seem a little out of it these days.Is it because of Dalores?"


    J looked at Elizabeth, only to see the worry written all over her friend''s face.иσν???вσσк.￠σмShe


    smiled reassuringly.


    "You''re overthinking things.She''s not bullying me.And now, I have my bodyguard with me.From now on,


    I''m sure she''ll think twice before making trouble for me."


    Elizabeth burst intoughter.She had also heard about what had happened that morning.


    Suddenly, a thought urred to her.She looked at J in confusion and asked, "Why''d you suddenly


    bring a bodyguard here?"


    While J exined, the two of them walked out of the bathroom together.


    "Didn''t you hear about what happenedst night? The billboard on the roof of this building fell down out


    of the blue."


    "Everyone said it was an ident.You know that our building is old."


    Elizabeth didn''t find it strange.


    Elizabeth didn''t know the whole story, which was a good thing in J''s eyes.


    That meant that she wasn''t in danger.

    So J didn''t exin everything in detail and imed that the bodyguards were hired by Brandon.


    When she returned to her station, she found arge bouquet of fresh red roses wrapped in ck


    wrapping paper on Elizabeth''s desk.


    "Oh, my God! They''re beautiful! This must be from Jorge, right?" J asked curiously.


    Truth be told, she didn''t like Jorge for Elizabeth and had hoped that Elizabeth would dump him.


    In her eyes, Elizabeth was an outstanding woman who deserved a better man.


    Jorge had already proven himself to be a domestic abuser and a drug addict, which of course made


    J worry about her friend.


    Elizabeth''s cheeks turned as red as the roses on her desk.


    She lowered her head shyly and pinched a rose petal with her fingers, leaving a slight mark on the


    petal.


    "Jorge has been so good to metely.It makes me feel like we''ve gone back to the past.I think he has


    really changed."


    J smiled and said nothing more.She didn''t want to spoil Elizabeth''s good mood, but she couldn''t


    shake off the bad feeling she had about Jorge.


    "Good morning,dies! We have a new design project.Mr.Wesley asked me to give you these


    materials."


    Tasha came over and briefed them on their new project.


    She told J, "In the afternoon, the client wille to the studio to pick a young designer to design


    the dresses they need.Everyone can participate in thepetition."


    Looking at the materials handed to her by Tasha, J instantly knew that it was for a dress.She used


    to do runway fashion, so she seldom epted such kind of couture project.She attached great


    importance to it, especially since it was her first project after returning to W Marks.She opened the


    document and found that the client''sst name was Harding.


    "Harding? Which Harding family is this?"


    She didn''t know much about the big families in Barnes, but she knew about the Harding family in


    Seacisco.Could they be rted?


    "It must be the Harding family from Seacisco.They also have a stronghold here in Barnes, which is now


    run by Garrett."
