Listening to that clear, pleasant voice, Daphne felt that… the voice, the tone, it sounded so familiar.
But… that was impossible!
The young woman in front of her probably wasn't even twenty years old.
Daphne felt her heart start to beat irregularly, and her gaze on Serena became tinged with a bit of horror.
She started to stammer, a far cry from her usual image as a decisive, powerful businesswoman. "Th-that entire jewelry set… it seems like it was specifically designed to match Miss Blackwood's gown… the elements are incredibly similar and integrated…"
"I heard that gown was designed and rushed to completion just a few days ago, which means… that jewelry set was also designed recently."
This was the reason she had approached Serena.
She wanted to get a lead on her mentor's whereabouts from Serena.
She desperately wanted to ask her mentor if she even remembered having an apprentice like her, or a luxury jewelry brand like Queen!
Serena pursed her lips, touched her chin, and nodded. "Hmm, good analysis."
Daphne's heart beat even faster.
Something was wrong!
Why did she feel more and more that…
This young woman's tone, her intonation… was so familiar!
So familiar that an image of her mentor spontaneously appeared in her mind…
Although, she had never actually met her mentor.
But her mentor's voice and presence seemed to be deeply ingrained in her heart.
Daphne stared at Serena's face.
She blinked, staring harder, more intently.
Her expression was a comical mix of surprise and horror.
