“You guys, what’s so special about that Rose that our Mr. Hersey is so smitten with her?”Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    “You are right. She’s not as good-looking as Violet, right? Mr. Hersey’s taste is... tsk, tsk, tsk! He can do better!”


    Rose wanted to review Violet''s design draft and give her some suggestions.


    She was nning to see Patrick after.


    Much to her surprise, she had just finished reviewing the design drafts when she received a call from Nelson.


    “Oh, Mr. Hersey wants to see me? Perfect, I’m in the Foreverie Jewelry design department right now!”


    “Yes, I’m discussing the private jewelry order with Miss Webb.”


    “Are youing to pick me up? Alright, I''ll wait for you in the design department!”


    After hanging up the phone, Rose blushed and said, “Mr. Hersey seems really eager to


    meet me now!”


    Helen chuckled and teased, “Who can me him? You''re so charming that Mr. Hersey can’t get you off his mind.”


    Rose smiled even more shyly.


    Violet froze, unable to utter a word.


    Helen sneered arrogantly and said, “Ms. Webb, see, | was right before. | knew Mr. Hersey waspletely devoted to our Rose. |


    told you to be nicer to me, listen.”


    but you


    you didn’t


    Ignoring Helen’s provocative boasting, Violet looked at Rose and asked, “Miss Jamson, do you have any specific design


    requirements?”


    Rose quickly smiled and shook her head, saying, “No, just send the design draft for customization directly.”


    Violet nodded.


    Helen wasn''t pleased. “Rose, your status is not ordinary now. You should help me out. Look how she’s treating me!”


    Rose felt a bit helpless. “Helen, take it easy. Mr. Hersey doesn’t want me to attract people’s attention, and | don’t want to upset


    him.”

    Chapter 225


    Helen couldn''t help but pout. adopting a magnanimous look as she gazed at Violet. “Alright, I''ll let this go for the sake of my


    sweet Rose. | won''t hold you responsible.”


    Violet lowered her head to examine the design drafts, her lips curling with sarcasm.


    “Pursuing my responsibility? What had | done wrong?” thought she.


    She could not hate Helen more.


    Helen was about to say something when she heard a knock on the door.


    She immediately raised her voice. “Come in!


    Nelson pushed the door open and entered. He looked at Violet with aplicated gaze and said politely, “Rose, pleasee


    upstairs with me!”


    Rose nodded shyly. “Helen, wait for me here. I’m going to see Mr. Hersey!”


    Helen yfully raised her eyebrows and made ambiguous gestures. “Go on, go on. I’m not in a hurry. Waiting for you for a day


    won''t be a problem.”


    Rose''s face turned even redder.


    Violet remained expressionless.


    After Rose left with Nelson, the rest of the people in the design department became. even more convinced of her rtionship


    with Patrick, and the entire department buzzed with gossip.


    Once Rose was gone, Helen couldn''t keep up the facade any longer. She looked smugly at Violet. Just because Rose is easy to


    deal with doesn’t mean | am. I’m not satisfied with the design, and it needs to be changed!”


    When it came to design drafts, no matter how difficult the clients were, Violet rarely lost her temper.


    She calmly nodded. “Helen, please state your requirements.”


    Helen sat there, acting like an expert, and listed a series of demands.


    Violet sat quietly, asionally making notes in her notepad.


    After Helen finished listing her demands, Violet raised her gaze. “Helen, ording to our contract, when a client requests more


    than three revisions to the design drafts. there is an additional fee.”


    Helen didn’t have any extra money for this.


    She widened her eyes and said in a high-pitched voice, “What did you say? You want more money?”


    Violet nodded with an expressionless face. “Yes, this will be the final revision. Please make sure your requirements are as clear


    as possible and not too vague.”


    Helen quickly took the design draft and checked it carefully.


    In fact, she was quite satisfied with Violet’s design draft. She just wanted to show off her identity as a friend of Mr. Hersey’s


    girlfriend and teach Violet a lesson.


    She thought for a moment. “Then... this design draft will do. There’s no need to change


    it!”


    With a subtle smirk, Violet nodded. “I''ll get back to work then.”


    As soon as Violet left the room, Helen suddenly realized that Violet had seen right through her intentions, and she felt yed..


    She was furious and wanted to settle the score with Violet.


    However, after thinking about it carefully, it would not be toote for her to make a move when Rose and Patrick’s rtionship


    was confirmed!


    Helen had high hopes that perhaps, in the future, she could convince Rose to influence Mr. Hersey to dismiss Violet.


    After all, Violet was just a designer, and a very attractive one at that, which had irked. her.


    Violet had no idea what she was thinking.


    She was expressionless the entire time, and no one knew what was on her mind.


    At first, she had been angry and bitter about the rtionship between Patrick and Rose, but now, she had epted the truth. No


    one knew what she had experienced.


    She couldn''t fathom the idea of immediately letting go of her feelings for him.


    She should have reminded herself not to develop feelings for Patrick. She didn’t know when it had happened, but when Patrick


    was rumored to be involved with someone else, she felt upset. Her feelings had spiraled out of control.


    Violet chuckled to herself, acknowledging her own foolishness. Patrick had warned her not to have feelings for him.


    She knew deep down it was a pitfall, yet she had unwittingly fallen into it.


    In the end, she could only me herself!


    As soon as Nelson left the CEO''s office, Rose immediately widened his eyes and looked


    innocent.


    After Nelson left, Rose immediately widened her eyes, appearing innocent, with teary eyes. She looked pitiful and quickly began


    exining, “Mr. Hersey, | didn’t know the photos fromst night would get out. I’m sorry, | came today to rify this with you..


    Please don’t be angry. | didn’t mean to get close to you.”


    She said, bending down and bowing in a pitiful and innocent manner.


    Patrick felt agitated and impatient. He waved his hand dismissively and furrowed his brow, saying, “No need for that act. | called


    you here to discuss something with you.”


    Rose blinked and licked her lips, looking innocent and pitiable. “What would you like to tell me, Mr. Hersey?”


    If it were any other man, he might have been moved.


    Unfortunately, Patrick only had eyes for Violet, who was cold and indifferent, and other women were invisible to him.


    In astern tone, he said, “First, exin the rumors between us to the public. If you manage that, | can offer you the endorsement


    for Foreverie Jewelry this quarter.”


    Rose was instantly surprised and delighted. For a moment, he could not even hide the overjoyed expression on his face.


    “Really?”


    Getting the endorsement from Foreverie Jewelry was a significant career boost, and she couldn''t help but feel excited.


    Patrick looked at her indifferently. “You really should take a mirror and look at your greedy face!”


    The joy on Rose’s face instantly disappeared.


    Patrick smirked sarcastically and said, “What''s the matter? Can’t handle it? If you don’t agree to my terms, you can leave now.”


    Rose’splexion changed, and she quickly shook her head. “No, | agree.”
