Chapter 64 Gale was close to biting her lower lip till it bled. “Got it.”
“Get out.”
She turned and walked out.
Shawn always had a sadistic way of giving her hope before driving her deeper into the hell of despair.
She lied to her mother that she was living well, had Sam to accompany her, and had a high-paying job. She weaved a beautiful lie.
Her mother just woke up and was still in recovery. Once she knew her true condition, Gale feared she would be heartbroken.
Shawn had his hands on all of her weaknesses.
Back at the workstation, Gale looked at the design draft, and her mind was blank.
She designed all kinds of jewelry styles for Lovito, from necklaces to rings to bracelets. She never lacked
inspiration.
Only Susan’s wedding ring…
“Why are you in a daze?” Summer patted her shoulder and asked, “Design block?”
Looking at the canvas on her desk, Summer frowned.” What the hell is this? It’s old-fashioned and vulgar and completely lacks sophistication. It’s like a nouveau riche ring. Gale, it’s not like your style.”
Gale replied, “It’s for Susan. She likes these basic styles.”
“No wonder… tsk tsk.” Summer’s eyes almost rolled to the sky. “Do you think Shawn has a problem with his eyesight? All the rich and beautiful women have tried to pounce on him. Why did he go for such an unclassy woman like Susan?”
“Life is puzzling.”
Just as Joe came back from seeing the client, Summer
stopped him quickly. “Mr. Winter, do you know a good eye doctor in Sea City?”
“What’s the matter? What’s wrong with your eyes?”
“I don’t. You are the one that has a problem with your eyes! I was just hoping you could introduce the doctor to Shawn!”
Joe replied, “What does his blindness have to do with me? By the way, I showed your designs to a foreign client, and he was full of praise. You should continue to work hard.”
Gale nodded and replied, “Thank you, Mr. Winter.”
Joe said confidently, “If this keeps up, our brand preference this year will definitely surpass Carson’s
Fantastic Jewels! Hey, I heard Sam has been having a hard time recently!”
