“Oh? Mr. Goldmann has come over here for dinner before this?” Madam Vanderbilt could not conceal her joy.Mr. Goldmann of Bassburgh, everybody in Coralia knew about him.It had always been said that one would have all the prosperity and wealth that they could ever wish for in this life as long as one could get acquainted with the Goldmanns.Leila forced a smile and explained, “Mother, that took place quite a long time ago. Mr. Goldmann has been too busy with work recently, so there’s no way that he’ll be able to come.”“How would you know if he could come or not if you don’t even give him a call?” Maisie sneered.Leila looked at her with resentment in her eyes. “Zee, stop making trouble.”‘I mustn’t let this b*tch rock the boat!’Seeing that Leila and Willow were so nervous, Maisie was almost sure that they were afraid she would really call Nolan over and ruin their front and that they would not be able to hold their heads up in front of Madam Vanderbilt.Maisie received a text
“Mommy!”Daisie pounced in front of her and raised her head, her eyes curled due to the smile. “Mommy, Mommy, we’ll stay with Daddy in the future, right?”Maisie glanced at the man beside her and did not say anything. ‘I’m not doing so voluntarily!’Nolan leaned over and picked up Daisie. “Yes, you’ll be living together with Daddy in the future.”Seeing the three rugrats cheering, Maisie, who was standing at the side, frowned, crossed her arms, and turned her face away.Still, she had never seen her three children being so delighted before this.Mr. Cheshire, who was standing next to Quincy, did not expect such an outcome.‘The young master not only had three children but also brought the children’s mother back here. I always thought that Ms. Vanderbilt would be the future mistress of the Goldmanns.‘This is astonishing!’He turned his head to Quincy and said, “Is this lady really our future young lady?”Quincy looked at him. “Ms. Vanderbilt even conceived kids for the family
Sensing the mattress behind her sinking, Maisie opened her eyes vigilantly.But there was no other movement after the man behind her laid down, so she turned her head around after a while.The man had fallen asleep with his back facing her.There was enough space for another person to lie down in the middle of the king-sized bed.Maisie only loosened her vigilance a little, but she still did not dare to slack off. No one knew how long the stalemate went on, but she was really too sleepy and dozed off without knowing it in the middle of the night.Nolan was awakened by a slap. He frowned slightly, turned around, and looked at the woman who was sleeping in a starfish position beside him. She had even pushed the quilt away from herself and was only half-covered.He rubbed his forehead.‘This woman actually has such a wild sleeping position?’Nolan suddenly thought of something when he was moving her hand away and then stared at her quietly...As soon as the first ray of the sun s
The car stopped in front of Taylor Jewelry. Kennedy and Maisie got out together and walked toward the main entrance. Taylor Jewelry was the biggest jewelry company in Zlokova, with its subsidiaries being in the top 10 in the country. Anyone who would want to be at the top of the industry would have to be in a partnership with them. A lot of the materials used by Taylor were monopolized. The rough diamonds and opals used could not be found anywhere else, but not everyone could become the best supplier for rough stones because of the requirements on price and quality. Kennedy went to the front desk to inform the staff of their arrival. When their identity was confirmed, they were brought into the VIP lounge. There were two people in the VIP lounge who seemed to be from other companies. “Please take a seat. We’ll get to you shortly.”Kennedy and Maisie walked to the couch on the other side and took their seats when the staff left. The woman sitting across the room was applyin
In comparison, Mr. Santiago was a lot friendlier than his daughter.Kennedy smiled helplessly. “I guess La Perla had the same intentions as us when they sent Ms. Santiago over to negotiate for a partnership.”“They’re trying to get Taylor’s source?” Maisie raised her brows.Kennedy sounded worried. “I wonder what condition La Perla will bring to the table. I’m afraid that $12,000,000 won’t be enough.”Just access to the source of tanzanite would already cost around $12,000,000. Since Taylor was the only company that had the right to work with Beaumont, monopolizing the import channels alone would have cost Taylor an obscene amount of money. They waited there for almost an hour before the staff appeared again. “I’m sorry, Madam Nera said that since your studio is newly established and not listed yet, she doesn’t know how good you are. Thus, she wishes that you will come back when you’ve become more established.”Kennedy got up. “Did Madam Nera really say that?”The staff looked
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 gos
After saying that, she walked to Madam Nera, smiled, and looked at her. “Taylor uses tanzanite as an exquisite gem. That shows that you and I both think that tanzanites have a lot of potential.“There are too few designs that use tanzanite in Zlokova. A lot of the younger crowd never witnessed the charm of tanzanites. If it’s hidden, there’s no longer a reason for it to exist in the market.”Madam Nera stared at the sincere young woman before her, thinking about the other people who had talked to her about partnering for channels to get tanzanite. They didn’t choose it because they saw the charm but instead favored it because of its rarity. There was a limited amount of tanzanites to be mined. There wouldn’t be any more left in a few decades, and when that happened, their value would surpass the sapphires.Since rare items were more valuable, she didn’t want to waste such a precious stone on something that was meaningless. Therefore, she always gave conditions that were hard to be
That face was so beautiful it must have been an illusion!Nolan looked at her. “You’re back?”She looked away and walked in with the agreement in her hand. “You have a lot of time on your hands, Mr. Goldmann.”“I heard that you wasted half a day at Taylor Jewelry before you met Madam Nera?”“Do you have a camera on me or something?” Maisie checked her clothes. He definitely did!Nolan pursed his thin lips. He slowly stood up and walked toward her. “Why didn’t you tell her that you’re part of the Blackgold Group?”A new company trying to discuss a partnership with Taylor might be looked down on simply because Taylor wouldn’t know how good they were, so they wouldn’t just agree to it. However, if it was a company under the Blackgold Group, Taylor would at least consider them because there would be financial backing. Nolan might not even bat an eye at the harsh conditions that Taylor gave.Maisie set the agreement on the desk and leaned on the desk. “Why should I say that I’m par
