Sage turned to Leah, ignoring him, and said, "Leah, do you still want that bracelet?"Leah shook her head. She wanted to get it for Sage, but who would have imagined what happened there?Aside from Leah blacklisting that shop, Sage would not accept the bracelet either."She doesn't want it anymore," Sage replied with a cold tone and an even colder expression.She was unwilling to let it go.Adrian James had a tingling sensation on the scalp as he diverted all his anger to the manager and the sales advisor. He scolded and swore at them as everyone heard him through the speaker.The manager was sweating profusely as he lowered his head while his sister-in-law stuck her head high, looking displeased."Two of you, leave immediately. I don't want to see you in my store anymore!"The manager knew they must have offended some bigwigs as their boss licked their boots.He dragged his sister-in-law and said, "What are you waiting for? Go! You've caused huge trouble!"The sales advisor
Some social news made the headlines of the Salem Newspaper.The Deputy Chief of the police department was suspended due to the ongoing investigation of the accused crime of embezzlement, bribery, and corruption.As for the arrogant sales advisor, she finally realized the magnitude of her mistake. She stayed home crying and regretting her actions.Sage bit the bullet and expanded Norah Jewelry in major cities rapidly. She successfully put Norah Jewelry's name back where it belonged—including Adrian James' store.Norah Jewelry's billboard could be seen in major department stores in Nadeem City. Jace Yuriel got hold of the news at the Yuriel Jewelry management conference.The Forever and Always line of jewelry from the Yuriel Group was boycotted by netizens because of Jace's divorce, and it was put on hold. It caused a dent in their financial performance.Upon seeing Norah Jewelry's return to the market and the success of their new collections, the Yuriel Group felt threatened.It
"Mutual collaboration? That Turf Club project was just a ruse by the Norah Group. They're waiting for us to fall into their trap. The new chairman is extremely cunning and smart—not at all like Braxton and Zane Norah."Jace narrowed his brows and looked up. He glared at the marketing director opposite him.The marketing director was halfway into his speech and was prepared to elaborate his opinion on Sage when he felt a chilly breeze. It was Jace glaring at him.Did he say something wrong? What did he say?The head of the design department continued, "Mister Yuriel, it's always good to have competition around. Our sales are declining, and we're lacking innovation. Norah Jewelry's new designs have inspired our designers. It's a good thing for them.Jace nodded agreeably. "Continue.""I'm classmates with Ada—the head of design at Norah Jewelry. I got to know from her that their new product samples were designed by Jade Master. That's a great gimmick. If the 'Always and Forever' lin
Sage was adamant about her intention. They could never afford her fees.Ada felt apologetic as she could not move forward with the collaboration between Norah and Yuriel Group. She could not expose Sage's identity as Jade Master, so she made up an excuse about Jade Master unable to fit Yuriel Jewelry into her schedule.On the other hand, Sage could not care less about Yuriel Jewelry. She furrowed her brows as she focused on the commercial shoot's monitor.The director's expression looked solemn as well."What is going on with the two of them? They did well separately, but when they're together, it looks awkward."Sage noticed the same thing. She looked in Seth and Suki's direction.Both of them each carried a different product.Seth wore a necklace charm named 'Key to my Heart'. He looked dashingly handsome with a white shirt on. The collar was wide open, and his chest muscles were on display. The women on the side had to fan themselves with their hands as their faces turned bri
Seth shook his head. "It had nothing to do with you. She said she didn't deserve me and didn't want me to disrupt my career for her."Sage immediately understood. "Seth, I understand where Suki's coming from even though we've only met a few times. Although she's powerful in her career, I can feel that she's frail when it comes to relationships."Sage continued, "I mean, she puts on a strong suit when working, but she's easily insecure when it comes to her relationships. She hopes to be loved like a princess."Seth nodded in agreement. "You're right. Suki is exactly like what you said.""Do you know what she wants from you?""To feel secure?" Seth guessed.Sage shook her head. "Secure is a general term. Of course, she feels insecure being brought up in a family like that, but she had to make herself feel secure. You can't do anything about it."Seth smiled as he paid attention to Sage's analysis. "Yes, you're a Stanfort post-graduate majoring in psychology. Please enlighten me."
They continued shooting after lunch.Seth and Suki were alone in the break room at noon, and they had a 'Do not disturb' sign on the door.When it was time to shoot again, they were in a completely different mood than before. They were perfectly coordinated, and the vibe was sweet and romantic. The director was pleased with the outcome. Sage sat on the bench as she watched them acting cute on camera. Yes, that was the right way. Although Sage had a rocky relationship, she still wished for happiness for everyone else.…The advertisement shoot went smoothly. The director was overjoyed as he pushed his glasses up while he edited the film. "I have a feeling that our advertisement will go viral."Sage smiled confidently and replied, "Of course, it'll go viral. It might even be record-breaking."She told the director to keep the outtake footage. Something told her that it would be of use someday.As the advertisement premiered everywhere, it blew up the entertainment industry.
"You don't know who Jade Master is? Please don't make a fool out of yourselves. How could you not know?"Jade Master rose to fame 17 years ago at an art exhibition with her jade piece titled 'Childlike'. She sculpted a mother and daughter portrait on a palm-sized jade. It was truly exquisite. The piece was sold to a duke from England as a collector's item.Every year after that, Jade Master came up with masterpieces that impressed international collectors, making her country proud.At the highest point of her career, she showcased a jade castle she sculpted over a decade. It caused a bidding war among numerous collectors and countries. In the end, Jade Master donated it to her country. It was kept in the national museum, making history in the jade industry.The views kept increasing exponentially with Jade Master's involvement. Eventually, the advertisement broke the Guinees record for highest views for an online advertisement.As the advertisement campaign went on, the product
Jim only recognized Sage when she approached him at arm's length."Didn't you recognize me with my new hair?" Sage asked casually.She had no makeup on, and she let her hair dry naturally. She was only having dinner with her staff, so there was no need to impress anyone.Tasteful Restaurant had great lighting, and everyone looked gorgeous under the lights.Sage's hair was the color of a bright rose under the lights. Her skin was as smooth as a baby's bottom, and it was translucent. It was a huge contrast compared to the other girls who had a thick layer of makeup.Jim's eyes were glued to Sage. He looked a little silly as his mouth gaped open."Grand—""Hush."Sage stopped him from calling her Grandmaster."Call me Miss Sage."Jim pursed his lips and corrected himself. "Miss Sage."Sage previously told him that her identity as the heiress had to be kept secret, and no one could ever know. He was prohibited from revealing it to the public as well.Jim finally came around and
