They didn’t cause a scene nor do anything. If they threw them out just because they were newly
established, people would say that Taylor looked down on new companies.
“Let them wait if that’s what they want.”
After another hour, the staff came back to report, but Madam Nera ignored it. When afternoon came,
the staff came back again to report, looking defeated. “They haven’t left. They’ve ordered some food
delivery. I guess they plan to stay here all night.”
Madam Nera could not sit around like they planned to do. She turned her wheelchair around. “Bring me
to them.”
She had underestimated the perseverance of the small company’s employees. That was perhaps the
reason she was curious. She wanted to see how much confidence this small jewel company had.
“They’re so shameless. They refused to leave because Madam Nera didn’t want to see them.”
“I would probably be too ashamed to stay.”
“They even ordered food delivery. Do they think that this is their home?”
A few employees were gossiping and laughing at them when they walked past the VIP room.
Maisie didn’t mind. She put on some gloves and started enjoying her lobster. The entire room was filled
with the delicious smell of it. She picked up a can of Coke.
Lobster and Coke, perfect!
When the staff pushed Madam Nera over on her wheelchair, they could smell the lobster at
the door. They peered inside.
A young woman was enjoying her food.
When Kennedy looked up, he paused while slowly standing up before he even took off his gloves.
Maisie turned her head and calmly removed her gloves. “Hello, Madam.”
Madam Nera opened her mouth but didn’t say anything. She looked at Kennedy. “Soul is your new
jewelry company?”
Kennedy smiled. “No.”
“It’s mine,” Maisie replied.
Madam Nera looked at her, a little surprised. “Yours?”
Maisie nodded.
Madam Nera looked at Kennedy with suspicion. “You’re working for a young girl in a jewelry company?”
“Madam, I’ve been in the business for so many years, but I almost never met someone so talented. I’m
doing this willingly,” Kennedy replied generously.
Madam Nera looked at the food on the table and back at them. “You’re having fun dining at m y office.
Did you plan to sleep here if I never came over?”
Maisie smiled. “We planned to leave after we finished eating, but you came over.”
It was alright to have a little pride.
“I’ve made my message clear. What are you trying to do?” Madam Nera looked troubled.
“To be honest, we are desperate for this opportunity. I know you’re concerned because we‘re a new
company and aren’t listed yet, and might not be able to survive in the future, but we really need the
source partnership for tanzanite. That’s the missing piece to a lot of our designs.”
Madam Nera was doubtful. “A sapphire would work just fine. Why do you need tanzanites?”
Maisie smiled and said, “If we’re looking at the international market, sapphires do have a high value,
but the color of a tanzanite is unique while the saturation and shine surpass those of sapphires.”
