Female Novel
Chapter 412
After Maddox returned to the company, Sam was shocked to find a handprint on his face.
But why was there a handprint on Young Master Yardley's face? Who dared to slap him?
Sam was even more surprised when he noticed that Maddox was actually in a good mood!
Could his instincts be wrong?
Not only was he not furious, but he also had a hint of bliss in his eyes.
Sam could not suppress his curiosity and approached Maddox.
"Young Master Yardley, what happened to your face?"
Maddox seemed to have regained his senses when he heard Sam's voice and glared at him.
Sam felt threatened in fear, "Are you okay? Do you need me to get some medication?"
"Get lost!"
Maddox was displeased.
Sam gave up on asking him.
When Sam left the room, Maddox took out his phone and was about to make an appointment withMinerva. He discovered that he did not even have her contact information.novelbin
And not even Facebook...
He looked at his phone in despair.
He must get her contact the next time they meet.
Maddox made up his mind and put his phone away.
The next day.
After Vera circulated Maddox's orders to other employees, she said proudly, "Our company has a lotof clients. As long as you work hard, you will be granted a bonus."
As soon as the company was established, they received a project from a renowned actress andanother project came after that.
Subsequently... they received a large project.
The crowd awed in astonishment.
The stream of clients was rushing in steadily. Even if they relied on Quill, it was too good to be true.Were these people too wealthy that they did not know where to spend their money?
"Maddox? Is our client President Yardley of the Yardley Corporation?" Gabriella gaped at the list.
Even Yasmine, who was listening at the side, inched closer to her.
"The Yardley Corporation from the North City? Really?"
Jordan held his chin as if he was pondering, "Even the Yardley Corporation in the North City lookedfor our company? It seems that Minerva is even more powerful than I imagined."
Yasmine was displeased by what Jordan said, "What's so impressive about that? Maybe she casteda spell!"
"Hey, can you stop criticizing her?¹' Kelly reprimanded Yasmine when she heard her sarcasticremarks.
Yasmine was annoyed, "Kelly, are you nuts? Did I say anything about you?'¹
Kelly sneered, "I'm not pointing the finger at anyone in particular."
Yasmine replied, "Since that woman entrusted Helen's design to you, you took her side. Don't forgetthat you disliked her at the beginning. Now, you're against me because of her."
"Yasmine, let's make this clear. I got the design because I was capable enough and I disliked herbecause I felt that I was better than her. However, only those who are weak and feel inferior wouldnot acknowledge the efforts of others. They belittle others whenever they can in order to feel betterabout themselves. Yasmine, you are such a person, aren't you?"
Aaron nodded in agreement. "Kelly is right and she has a point. Yasmine, can't you just pay MissMinerva the respect? Do you know who the client is? He is President Yardley from the YardleyCorporation in the North City. Even if you want to get the client with some other inappropriate ways,he may just turn you down."
It was a rare scene to see Jessica agreeing along, "I feel the same way as well."
Gabriella rolled her eyes and said with a chuckle, "Yasmine, it's unreasonable of you to have thisprejudice towards Miss Minerva. She is not that kind of a person."
"Come on, Gabriella. Don't think I don't know what you are thinking. You're probably still holding agrudge against Minerva ever since she said that you copied other's designs. Stop beingpretentious."
Gabriella fluttered her eyes. "That was indeed my fault. Besides, Miss Minerva was guiding me sothat I can improve. What's the problem with that?"
"How dare you!"
"Stop arguing. It's so annoying!"
Vera thought that they were just against Minerva; she didn't know that they were all split up andwere against one another. She said, "This time, the Yardley Corporation will choose one designeramong all of you so you have to submit your best design to me, so I can provide it to the client asreferences."
"Do all of us stand a chance?" Yasmine pinched her fingers nervously. If she was chosen by YardleyCorporation, then...
Yasmine instantly returned to her desk as she thought about it.
Vera came to collect their designs in the afternoon. As soon as she walked out of the office, aperson followed her.
Kelly could not help but sneer when she witnessed this scene.
"I knew someone would not be able to sit still."
Gabriella pushed her hair on her forehead to the back. "Let's have a guess. Will she succeed, or willshe fail?"
Jordan shrugged indifferently. "I don't care anyway. I refuse to design clothes for a man. When canwe have some pretty female clients?"
When Vera walked to the front of the elevator, someone called for her from the back.
She turned around and saw Yasmine.
Yasmine spoke under her breath in embarrassment, "Well... It's my bad that I had always ill-treatedyou."
Vera creased her brows and looked at her with many doubts and questions running through hermind .
"You changed?"
"Huh?"
"If not, why are you telling me this kind of thing all of the sudden? I'm in a hurry, I have no time forthis."
Perhaps having spent most of her time with Minerva had subconsciously made her more likeMinerva; she would not be nice to people who were not worthy of her time
"Vera, don't be like that. Look, this is a perfume that I brought back from France. It's limited edition."
Yasmine stuffed the bottle of perfume into Vera's hand, and Vera was dumbstruck. She glanced atthe perfume in her hand and glanced at Yasmine. She finally understood what was going on.
"I see, so you are trying to bribe me," Vera sneered.
Yasmine was embarrassed and she forced a smile, "I'm not bribing you. It's just a token ofappreciation. I'll share more goodies with you in the future." "So?" Vera looked at the bottle ofperfume. "Do you think that I can grab the spot for you in return for this limited edition perfume?"
Yasmine was a little embarrassed. "Vera..."
"I'm telling you, the client is the one who will decide. It has nothing to do with me, so don't expectanything from me."
"Vera, I know it's up to the client, but you can remove some of their designs and recommend me tothe client."
The more Yasmine said, the more annoyed Vera felt.
Vera was speechless and stared at Yasmine in disgust, "You're too much. All these designsrepresent the company. If I were to do such a thing and if the client is not satisfied with ourstandard, who would bear the responsibility for this? Yasmine, it seems that Minerva has mentionedthat you refuse to amend your work and you still haven't reflected on your mistakes. How dare youplay such dirty tricks?"
