Maisie and Lucy came to the design planning department and saw the head of the department showing
Naomi around. Even though she was important to Eastwood Enterprise, she laid low when working at
Soul, dressing casually with no luxury brands or expensive jewelry.
She had a smile the entire time when the head of the department was speaking to her and didn’t look
impatient.
That showed that Naomi had been brought up very well and didn’t act like the other rich girls.
The head of the department saw Maisie and walked over smiling. “Ms. Vanderbilt.”
When Naomi saw her, she smiled and nodded. Maisie did the same. “How’s your first day?”
Naomi paused before answering with a smile, “It’s alright, but don’t worry, I’ll adapt quickly.”
Maisie smiled. “I believe you.”
Naomi had seen her at the hospital, but when she saw her again at Soul, she wasn’t surprised because
she had looked into the company and how it had started.
She was respectful and didn’t try to pretend that they were close because of her status or her identity as
Ryleigh’s friend. That really showed that she was just different from the other girls.
She was friendly and easy to get along with, making it hard for people to dislike her.
Naomi left with the head of the department and Maisie turned to look at Lucy. “What do you think about
her
?
Lucy answered, “I think she’s quite respectable and friendly.” Maisie nodded. “She might become an
outstanding jewelry designer if we train her well.”
She would become a real jewelry designer given her talent in five years.
Two days later, at Bassburgh’s Posh Restaurant…
The entire restaurant was booked. A dozen of the servers stood in a row while the manager gave a
rundown of the menu to Yorrick, who was seated.
“Mr. Hathaway, these are foie gras from Fradian. They’re the freshest.”
Yorrick casually looked at the menu, swirling the wine glass around while the wine swirled too. “I’ve just
gotten to Zlokova. I’ll take whatever you recommend.”
The manager smiled. “Sure, do tell us if you have any requests.”
Yorrick waved his hand, and the manager left with the servers, only a few good ones staying behind to
serve.
After a short while, Nolan and Quincy entered the restaurant, so Yorrick’s bodyguards stepped aside.
The server pulled the chairs out for them, and Nolan sat down across from him. “You came all the way
here to have dinner.”
Yorrick looked at him and smiled. “Maybe I missed you after our farewell in Stoslo.”
Nolan frowned but looked calm.
Yorrick’s expression changed, and he stopped joking. “I took over the project Tristan had with Eastwood
Enterprise.’
The server poured him a glass of wine while Nolan squinted. “Really?
Congratulations.”
Yorrick drank the wine. “The little man of their family is still alive.”
Nolan leaned back. “You intervened.”
“No,” he denied and looked at Nolan. “He was lucky to have escaped. If I saved this smart child, the
Knowles would remember this.”
Nolan smiled while he picked up the wine glass, keeping his eyes on the wine within. “You helped
because you can tell how extraordinary the little boy is.”
