Chapter 22
Jocelyn was genuinely grateful toward Skyler. If he had not saved her last night, Lily would be in total control of her life right now. She felt extremely regretful when she recalled the mess that she had caused in the morning.
She cast a cautious glance at Skyler while having breakfast. “Thank you for everything last night!”
Skyler raised his head to glance at her. He looked like he did not want to bother her at all. Jocelyn pursed her lips and blinked her eyes. “Everything that happened this morning was an accident. I‘m sorry!” Skyler huffed lightly and got up. “I‘m full!” Jocelyn sat by the dining table dejectedly like a loser. After Skyler put on his shoes, he asked her in an icy tone, “Are you leaving? I’m going to work right now!”
After hearing what Skyler said, Jocelyn immediately sprung to action. He was implying that he would be fetching her to work! She immediately stood up and said, “I‘m coming! I‘m coming right now!” She changed her shoes in a hurry and grabbed her handbag. She smiled cheerily as she looked at Skyler, whose face remained emotionless. “Let‘s go!” Before they left, Jocelyn handed a plaster over to Skyler. Skyler raised his brows.
Jocelyn pointed at his chin and said, “Put in on your wound!”
Skyler’s handsome face darkened as soon as she mentioned this. “Do you think that other people won’t be able to guess what happened after I stick a plaster on?” After speaking, Skyler walked out angrily. He did not even bother to turn around. Jocelyn had an ashen expression on her face. What could other people guess from the wound?
Was his injury not caused by her mistake this morning? Jocelyn learned that she could only collect her work card in the afternoon after reporting for work.
Therefore, she headed to the design department to work. Once she arrived at the design department, a woman dressed in a light blue suit with exquisite makeup on her face walked over and greeted her curtly before she could say anything. The woman seemed to be extremely experienced “You must be the new designer assistant, right?” A glint of surprise flashed across Fiona Payne’s eyes as soon as she saw Jocelyn. novelbin
Her expression changed slightly as she walked toward her desk without turning around.
Jocelyn wanted to clarify things to her and let her know that she was not a designer assistant. However, Fiona stuffed a stack of design drafts into her arms before she could say anything.” Find a desk and categorize these drafts. We need to use them later!” Jocelyn looked at Fiona with a stunned expression on her face. She wanted to introduce herself to Fiona. “I…”
However, Fiona interrupted her with a domineering stance before she could finish speaking.“ Why aren‘t you doing it? Is this such a difficult task?” Jocelyn frowned slightly. She found a desk and started categorizing the drafts.
Although she felt uncomfortable about doing a task that she was not meant to, she did not want to get into a dispute with her new colleague since she had just started working at Prosperity Jewelry She quickly finished categorizing the design drafts. She handed them to Fiona and said, “I’ve finished categorizing the design drafts!” Fiona took the drafts from her and flipped through them. She cast a shocked glance at her and said, “Not bad! You work quite efficiently!”
Jocelyn nodded and was just about to say something when Fiona handed her a cup. “Pour a cup of water for me!”
Jocelyn frowned. She noticed the irritated expression on Fiona’s face before she could say anything. “What‘s wrong? Are you not willing to pour a cup of water for me?”
Jocelyn did not want to argue with her. She took the cup from her and said, “No, I‘m not!” After speaking, she went over to fill Fiona‘s cup with water. As soon as she placed the cup of water on Fiona’s table, she overheard someone speaking next to her.
“Guys, where do you think Jocelyn White is? Look at the time! Why isn‘t she here yet? Is she planning to act all bossy in the design department since she rose to fame online yesterday?!”
“Who knows? Anyways, President Moore was the one who personally hired her. Nobody else in Prosperity Jewelry except Big Sis Josie has ever received such treatment!”
Fiona‘s face darkened as soon as she heard their discussion. “I don’t care what you guys say, but don‘t just compare anyone to Big Sis Josie. Given Big Sis Josie’s current position, how can Jocelyn White compare to her?!”
Jocelyn‘s expression changed. However, she did not say anything. After hearing what Fiona said, everyone agreed immediately. “Right, right, Fiona is right. Jocelyn White is nothing. Trash like her doesn‘t even deserve to carry Big Sis Josie‘s shoes for her! How can we even compare them?!”
“Yes, Big Sis Josie is now a globally renowned designer. Jocelyn White is nothing compared to her! I‘ve n even heard of her before!”
This bunch of people were all extremely quick to jump ship. They all knew that Fiona got along well with J Josie had personally supervised Fiona in the past. Fiona had always viewed Josie as her idol. Once Josie left the company, Fiona had become the head designer of Pr Jewelry. Therefore, everyone showed her respect. Initially, Jocelyn had intended to introduce herself in front of Fiona. After hearing what they said, s to the few people around her as they gathered and started gossiping. “Do you guys think that Lily White really plagiarized Jocelyn White‘s work? Everyone sp proved to be true last night!” “Everyone is just following the general trend. Nobody knows the actual truth. Besides, Jocelyn White might have buttered up President Moore to get back at Lily White!” “Nobody knows the truth about plagiarism. Besides, the lawsuit between them will last up to two years. Who knows what shady processes are going within? Right, have any of you seen Jocelyn White?” “Didn‘t she previously appear in a press conference? Didn‘t you guys watch it?”
“I’m always on Twitter. I don’t really pay attention to other social media. There weren’t photos of her on Twitter!”
“I saw a photo of her before. However, I don’t recognize faces well. Besides, she wasn‘t that famous in the past! How can I remember what she looks like after looking at her photo once or twice?!”
Suddenly, someone glanced at Jocelyn, who was standing by the side and said, “This new assistant looks similar to Jocelyn. Don‘t you guys think so?” The person took out a blurry photograph and handed it over to everyone else.
Everyone else was yet to register her words. They rushed forward to take a look at the picture. Just then, a girl suddenly ran into the design department. She clutched her chest as sh looked like she could not catch her breath.
