Chapter 518
Serena raised an eyebrow.
She recognized the person-Daphne, the head designer for the luxury jewelry brand, Queen.
Her business partner, and… her apprentice.
Daphne walked over quickly, seeing the young woman turn to look at her.
Back in the ballroom.
Daphne had already experienced the impact of this young woman’s beauty.
But now, under the moonlight and the warm glow of the surrounding landscape lights.
The young woman’s intensely striking face was so beautiful that even she, a woman, couldn’t help but be moved.
Especially with her cool, aloof aura, which was otherworldly and extremely eye- catching.
Daphne considered herself to have met all types of beauties from around the world during her many years in the jewelry design industry.
But none of them came close to the young woman before her p>
Daphne was almost stunned into a daze.
It wasn’t until the young woman before her slightly lifted the corners of her eyes, a hint of teasing amusement in her long, bright gaze, tilted her head, and waved a slender white hand in front of her face.
Only then did Daphne snap out of it. “I’m sorry p>
She had been staring at a young woman, completely mesmerized.
Daphne quickly averted her gaze and put on a smile. “Young lady, don’t be nervous.
I just have a question for you p>
Serena looked puzzled.
Where did she look nervous?
“Your face seems a little flushed p>
Daphne was trying her best to appear as friendly as possible,
toning down her usual sharp demeanor to avoid scaring the girl.
Serena fell silent.
She thought about how she had just pinned Nicholas down, teased him, and then left without a second thought.
The heat on her face intensified by several degrees.
Keeping her face expressionless, she feigned calmness. “Oh, it’s a bit warm. Did you need something p>
It was currently turning to autumn, and the evenings were still a bit cool.
Especially since Serena was wearing a form-fitting evening gown that left her arms and legs exposed.
Warm… really?
Daphne just assumed it was a
young person’s fast metabolism and didn’t press the issue, getting straight to the point. “I heard from Miss Blackwood… that the entire set of jewelry, she’s wearing today was a birthday gift from you, and that set was designed by my mentor… Queen p>
“Yes,” Serena raised an eyebrow. “Is there a problem p>
“As far as I know, my mentor has been in a state of semi-retirement for the past two years, just resting t haven’t heard any news of her making a comeback,” Daphne Said, her eyes carefully probing Serena’ “Young lady. I’d like to know, when did you commission my mentor to custom-design this set for Miss Blackwood p>
What she really wanted to say was that she hadn’t been able to contact her mentor for nearly six months.
Let alone get any new design drafts from her.
So, seeing that Serena had managed to get her mentor to design an entire set of jewelry for Miss Blackwood was a shock.
And she, as the public face of the Queen brand, had no idea when her own lead designer had come out of retirement to create an entire jewelry set.
An entire set!
That was a full suite!
Serena’s lips curved slightly, the teasing hint in them growing stronger.
She lifted her eyes, her voice tinged with a playful wickedness. “Ms. Rainsford, when do you think… this set was designed p>
