Chapter 275 It was a call from Lucy.
“Lucy.” Naomi calmed down and responded, trying to control her emotions.
As the mother of the fashion industry, Lucy was also a well-known workaholic in Cezanne.
Naomi was used to her late calls.
“Naomi, do you still remember the girl you rescued?”
“You mean Kiki? I’ve seen her in the hospital. Did something happen to her?”
Naomi sat up from the bed, her face turning serious. “It’s okay, she’s almost recovered, and she’ll be joining
Cezanne soon. She applied to the company, hoping to be your assistant. What do you think? I’ll send you her
information.” Naomi’s mobile phone mailbox received Kiki’s information. Naomi clicked on the email and quickly
browsed through Kiki’s details. She graduated from a well-known university in Mericah, majoring in jewelry design,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtand also won the award for being the most outstanding jewelry designer in Mericah. She had the credentials to
become an independent designer, let alone an assistant. “Okay, I think we should be very compatible.” “Okay, I’ll
have someone notify her later.”
“Okay.”
Hanging up on Lucy, Naomi soon received another unfamiliar friend request.
She clicked on the details and saw that the profile picture was Kiki’s photo, so she clicked accept.
Soon, the girl sent her a message.
Kiki: (Naomi, I’m so happy to be your assistant! What do you want for breakfast? I’ll make it for you later!)
Naomi could imagine the little girl’s cute and well-behaved expression through the screen.
She was not in the mood to chat now, though. Naomi: (Thank you, I don’t need breakfast.)
Soon, Naomi received another reply, which was sensible and well-behaved.
Kiki: (Alright. It’s very late. Take a rest early and don’t stay up late.] Naomi pursed her lips, replied good night, and
put the phone aside.
Opposite Hough Corp, in a high-end single apartment,
Queenie stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, sliding her finger lightly across the
screen and turning off the phone.
In the kitchen behind her, a pot of soup was boiling on the stove.
The strange thing was that the pot of soup was blood red, like a witch’s poison.
After the stove signaled that the food was ready, Queenie walked to the stove and turned off the heat, then poured
a pot of soup into the basin next to it, and the entire basin was filled with dark red steam.
Queenie stared at the basin, her clever and agile eyes gradually turning scarlet and terrifying “I really want to
poison you.” The phone rang suddenly.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt turned out to be Anna’s call. Queenie glanced at the name contemptuously, and mockery flashed in her eyes. She
answered the phone, and her tone became well-behaved and docile again. “Anna, what’s the matter?” “Queenie,
why didn’t you tell me you came back? I could have picked you up!” Anna complained on the phone. Queenie didn’t
go according to her plan, which caught her off guard. “I wanted to surprise Jack!” “Then where are you going to live
next? Do you want to come to work at Hough Corp?” Anna hinted that she wanted to put Queenie closer to Jack,
forcing Naomi to be at a disadvantage!
Queenie hooked her lips coolly. Of course, she could see through Anna’s intentions, but she would not cooperate
with a fool.
The next second, Queenie refused with a sweet and euphemistic voice. “You don’t have to worry about me
anymore. I’ve already found a job and can support myself.”
“What?! You found a job?!”
Anna’s voice suddenly rose, obviously caught off guard.
“Well, I like this job very much-.”
Queenie yawned lazily, “Anna, I’m sleepy. If there’s nothing else, good night.” “Okay, good night!” Queenie hung up
the phone. She twitched the corner of her mouth, smiling strangely.
