Chapter 945 Accident
She could not help but recall what her father told her at the dining table.
The Jones family and the Stone family had to be of equal strength to enter a marriage of convenience.
Alas, the Jones family was not as influential as before. If the latest jewelry collection launched by Farrington Jewelry could not become a hit, the gap between both families would only get wider.
Muse was a talented designer, and the Stone family would provide the raw stones to Dream Jewelry, so it was practically impossible for Farrington Jewelry to turn the tables.
If the Jones family could not restore their former glory, what would happen to her engagement to Amos? Would they still get married as agreed?
Olivia’s heart ached when she recalled Amos.
She came here to discuss a solution with Amos, but she would be humiliating herself if she were to enter his office now.
Tamping down her jealousy, despair, and anguish, Olivia spun on her heels and marched away.
Ignoring the others’ strange looks, she stalked out of Stone Corporation. Her eyes were red, and tears streamed down her cheeks.
Why?
In the car, Olivia buried her face in the steering wheel.
If Natalie didn’t appear suddenly to disrupt my plans, Muse might’ve chosen to work with me, and Amos wouldn’t change his attitude toward me. It’s all Natalie’s fault! So what if she’s the chairwoman of Dream Jewelry? I shall go against anyone who tries to block my path no matter what! Since Anna and Amos chose to collaborate with Natalie, I shall make them regret their decision.
After getting the contract from Amos, Natalie threw herself into work.
She worked hard for a long time.
Finally, the Rebirth collection was released. Natalie, Yandel, and Lia could barely hide their excitement.
This was their first release in Loang. They had to admit that the designs were really gorgeous and meaningful.
Lia could not keep her eyes off the products. “These are so gorgeous! I think they are prettier than the designs. Ms. Nichols, can you leave some for me? I want a set for myself, and a few others to gift to my friends.”
Natalie’s eyes crinkled up in delight. “Of course!”
“Lia, Boss treats you well, huh?” Yandel chimed in from the side. “This time, the preorder of the Rebirth collection is done online. There are one hundred sets for the first batch and one thousand sets for the second batch. She saved some for you even though there are only a total of one thousand and one hundred sets.”
Lia nodded profusely. “I know Ms. Nichols treats me well.”
“Stop being jealous.” Natalie shot Yandel a look. “What about you? Do you want one?”
“Me?” Yandel’s gaze dimmed. “Why would I need it? It’s not like I have anyone to give it to.”
Hearing him, Natalie belatedly realized that her casual question might have reminded Yandel of Amelia. Hence, she changed the topic.
“After we receive the products, we can start the promotion. Previously, we decided on Yvette Snyder as the model for the collection. She’s an award-winning actress and is popular in the entertainment industry. Her fanbase is stable, so she will help in increasing the sales of the Rebirth collection. Lia, pay more attention when you liaise with her side. Make sure communication is smooth,” Natalie reminded.
Lia inclined her head solemnly. “I’ll do my best.”
Natalie handed all matters related to filming to Lia, and the latter made the arrangements meticulously.
Soon, the day of the filming arrived.
Yvette completed the filming successfully, and all they had to do was to wait for the photos to start their promotion.
That very night, Natalie was teaching Sophia traditional medicine when she received a call.
“Ms. Nichols, I’m really sorry! I messed everything up!” Lia’s choking voice sounded over the line.
Gesturing for Sophia to read the book herself, Natalie stood up. She then walked out of the study and answered the call in the corridor. “Lia, you need to calm down. Calm down, and tell me what happened.”
Hearing her words, Lia took a few deep breaths before saying, “After filming ended, Yvette had an allergic reaction. There are rashes on her skin where she wore the Rebirth collection jewelry. Her manager has sent her to the hospital. I received the photos of the rashes, and it seemed like a serious allergic reaction. There is a possibility of scarring if she were to scratch the rashes.”
