Chapter 519
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 p>
“I heard that gown was designed and rushed to completion just a few days ago, which means… that jewelry set was also designed recently p>
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 p>
This young woman’s tone, her intonation… was so familiar!
So familiar that an image of her mentor spontaneously appeared in her mind p>
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.
“Alright, stop staring. You won’t be able to stare the name ‘Queen’ onto my face,” Serena said, no longer teasing her.
This time, Daphne completely lost control of her expression.
Her pupils widened bit by bit, and the horrified, comical look on her face grew.
“Y-y-y-you p>
“N-n-no, it can’t be p>
Daphne was trembling with excitement.
Where was the poised, unapproachable, and highly sought-after master jewelry designer she was known to be?
“What? Weren’t you looking for me?” Serena’s lips curled into a teasing smile. “Now
that you’ve found me, you’re at a loss for words p>
Daphne’s eyes nearly popped out of her head.
She swallowed hard.
Then, she whipped out her phone and started typing furiously on the screen.
A few seconds later.
Serena’s phone buzzed.
She glanced down and saw a message from [Ms. Rainsford p>
Ms. Rainsford: [Mentor, I think I might be drunk. I actually mistook a young woman, who is
twenty-something years younger than me, for you. Ha ha ha. Trust be drunk I’m seemg things.
Serena lifted her eyes, a faint smile playing on her lips as she looked at Daphine her cool tone läeed: amusement. “Yes, Ms. Rainsford does seem quite drunk p>
Clatter!
The phone fell to the ground.
Daphne was dumbfounded.
The young woman before her, who didn’t even look twenty, was really the one p>
nět
The mentor she had long admired, long respected, the one she had imagined a thousand times she would kneel before to formally become her apprentice, Queen!
