Chapter 231
“I’ll go make the necessary changes,” Belinda said with a smile as she accepted the document. Then she turned to leave.
“Belinda.”
As she opened the door to leave, Ryland’s voice stopped her. “Aren’t you upset?”
She was being forced to serve her ex-husband’s fiancée just two days into her new job at the company…
Most women wouldn’t tolerate such a situation.
Yet, why was she so composed?
“I’m fine.”
Belinda paused and looked back at him. “I just hope that the company gains more recognition and that more people see my designs.”
She was running out of time.
Before she passed away, she longed to see the jewelry she had crafted reach the market and fulfill the promise she had made to Joyce.
She had vowed to honor their shared dream, even in Joyce’s absence, by giving her all.
Now, so close to achieving this dream, she was determined to give everything she had.
Seeing the resolve in her eyes, Ryland couldn’t help but exhale deeply and said, “Belinda, if you succeed this time… you’ll be our studio’s hero.”
He then gestured to her and added, “Continue with your work.”
Belinda nodded and departed with the documents in hand.
The feedback on her revisions this time was far more stringent and detailed than before.

She returned to her office and spent the entire day making revisions. By the time the evening arrived and it was almost time to leave, she had completed less than 1/5 of the needed changes.
“Belinda.”
As she stretched, preparing to leave for the day, Ryland summoned her to his office.
“I’ve just learned that Miss Miller and Miss Cox will be attending a very prestigious and significant event tomorrow night…” Ryland looked at her with a sense of helplessness and continued, “They’ll be coming to the studio later to select their jewelry for tomorrow… You might need to stay late tonight to assist them.”
A significant event…
Belinda paused for a moment before a sudden realization hit her: tomorrow was the day Kristopher had arranged the venue and ordered the cake, planning to propose to Cathy.
Were Cathy and Maggie considering wearing jewelry from this boutique studio?
Given that tomorrow’s gathering would consist of Kristopher’s and Cathy’s high-society friends and family, the guests were likely to scrutinize everything from attire to accessories. Only high-end international brands would escape their judgment.
Belinda remembered the years of mockery she endured from socialites for choosing a modest accessory at an event shortly after her marriage to Kristopher.
