Chapter 85 A Boy You Have Known Since Childhood
Seeing that Chester is annoyed, Hannah immediately covers her mouth and blinks, "I'm just kidding."
Chester finds her eyes extraordinarily pure especially when she is blinking. She is actually a cautious person, but sometimes her style of speaking and behaving is extraordinarily perverse, like a well-protected and self-willed girl.
This gives Chester a strange feeling that he has never had before.
On Friday afternoon, Queenie comes to the Shahbaz Group herself to sign the endorsement contract.
Because the endorsement series of jewellery is tailor-made for her, after signing the contract, a salesperson takes her to the design department to meet with the designer.
Except Sebastien, no one knows Hannah and Queenie have met each other. They even tacitly pretend to meet for the first time.
"This is Hannah, the chief designer of our Autumn and Winter series."
Queenie looks at Hannah and nods, saying hello.
Rose introduces the team's designers in turn and then takes out the design samples.
"This set of jewelry is traditionally made from gold inlaid with jade, but considering Miss Gavin's age, we have made some minor alterations..."
"I don't think there is a big problem. I don't know if I can talk to Designer Joseph about some personal requirements?"
"Of course," Rose nods immediately. "If you have any requirements, just mention it to Hannah. Since there is nothing else, I'll leave you two alone."
"Thanks."
After everyone leaves, only Queenie and Hannah are left in the conference room.
There is a sound of closing the door, and Queenie and Hannah exchanges glances, and both of them can't hold back and laughs out loud.
Queenie stretches her waist and slumps on the sofa in disregard of her image.
"So exhausting. It's really tiring to listen to what I've heard again."
Hannah has talked with her about this series of jewels, and it is perfectly customized around her. So it is truly tailor-made, and she is clearly aware of this. Hannah packs the design draft on the table and asks casually,"After that day, didn't Zander come to you?"
"Of course he did and explained a lot to me. I didn't expose his drugging me because of you. I really don't bother to talk someone like him."
"I'm glad you know what he is now."
"By the way, he said that his sister would celebrate her birthday after two days, and he invited me."
Hannah freezes for a moment, showing a concerned look.
"You said yes?"
"Yeah," Queenie chuckles, "Don't worry, I'm not stupid. He won't get the chance to take an advantage of me, and I'll avoid any scandal. I happen to be free, so I want to have a look at your husband, you know. will arrive late, and as long as I don't show up with Zander, there wouldn't be a problem."
Hannah nods thoughtfully.
"There should be a lot of people at the banquet, and he wouldn't dare to do anything."
Although Queenie has been well protected since she was a child, she has experienced a lot in the entertainment industry for years. She must be clear about the pros and cons of such things. So there is nothing to worry about.
"And I have a male companion." Queenie mysteriously leans closer, "He will stay with me all the time then."
"Who?"
"You don't know each other, but then you will know."
"Boyfriend?"
"No," Queenie's cheeks suddenly redden. "Don't talk nonsense, we are friends. We have known each other for a long time, you know, close friends."
Among Queenie's friends in England, Nelson is the only man who is close friend to her.
Hannah asks deliberately, "Is it a boy you have known since childhood?"
"How do you know?" Queenie's expression changes a little, showing stunned eyes.
"Just a guess, generally for a boy you have been in a good relationship with for a long time, you are more than friends, but less than lovers, you know. You just need to get over that specific point." "No, it's not what you are thinking." Queenie eagerly defends, her delicate face flushing red.
"In fact, we weren't even friends
before. He and Sherry have known each other since childhood, and I have known Sherry since childhood, and then we met each other. We' love to fight as soon as we meet. He loves playing tricks on me and used tootease me when I was little. It was quite annoying."
"Since you hate him so much, why let him accompany you to the banquet?"
Queenie is at a loss for words.
Hannah continues, "Since you have known each very well, just go after him if you really have a crush on him. You know, nowadays, it is hard to find the Mr. Right. It is rare to meet some you like, you know..."
Before what happened to Sherry, Hannah had been trying to make them a couple, but things couldn't meet her expectation. At that time they quarreled as soon as they met. Her efforts didn't work, and instead they resisted each other more and more. Hannah didn't expect that after the accident, they would get along well..
Somehow, Hannah feels his incident actually brought some gains.
"No, not really." Queenie grits her teeth and refuses to admit it, "Anyway, that man is unreliable. You won't say this when you see him." Hannah looks at her slightly flushed face, saying nothing.
"By the way, how is the competition you participated in?" Queenie changes the subject quickly, but is obviously absent-minded.
"I have entered the semi-finals, and I will be there to participate in the competition next Saturday. I should be able to see you there."
"So do you want to bribe me? I will have the right to add the points, you know."
Queenie is the special guest of New Star Designers Competition. In addition to the two million cash prizes for the champion this year, there is also the signing of a props designer agreement with Queenie's Star Entertainment, and then the winner will be able to design tailor-made jewelry for the cast members.
"Okay, how about strawberry smoothie?"
"You are too stingy. In the top four, except for an IM designer studio that I haven't heard of, the other three were all trying to bribe my agent, even including your Shahbaz Group."
When Queenie talks about IM, Hannah's eyes blink like candlelight.
"Have you accepted them?"
"Of course not. If I accept them, it will be my scandal. I'm an actress determining to win a lifetime achievement award. I can't have scandals in my life."
"Then you can have a guess about who will be the champion in the end."
"Guess?" Queenie thinks about it carefully, rubbing her chin, "I have only participated in two knockout rounds so far, and the works seem to be the similar. I like your design very much. If there is anyone who can compete with you, I think it will be a mysterious dark horse of this competition."
"IM?"
"Yeah."0000000
