The Bound Between Us

Chapter 139
Selena spotted Anastasia in the reception area and felt a gang of guilt. But she didn’t show it. Instead, she gave Anastasia a
look, signaling her to leave But Anastasia pretended not to see it. She copied her work and still wanted her to leave?
Instead Anastasia turned to Wendy and said. “Wendy, let me get you another cup of coffee”
““Okay, thanks’ responded Wendy. Then she turned to Selena. You really are the top designer. I love this piece I was wondering
if you could design a pair of earrings and a necklace for my daughter’s birthday next month I want to give them to her
“Anything to make you happy. Wendy” Selena said with a smile. Earrings and a necklace no problem. Just tell me what you want
and I’ll make sure you’re
1 have complete faith in your abilities Wendy said as she packed up the jewelry box. Tve heard from friends that your designs
are usually lavish, but this one is very simple and delicate. It’s quite classic.”
The simplest things were often the most exquisite and classic. Wendy didn’t like things that were too complicated or flashy
Selena glanced at Anastasia, who was standing to the side, and accepted Wendys praise without blinking an eye. 1 guess it’s
just that as I’m getting older. I’ve come to appreciate the simpler styles”
Wendy joked. “Selena, you’re such a jokester. You’re so young and beautiful and you say you’re old? That makes me ancient”
Your skin is so good, Wendy. If I didn’t know better, I’d say you’re in your twenties
Selena praised Wendy lavishly, and Wendy was very pleased Selena successfully secured another order
When Wendy was gone, Selena’s expression changed instantly. “Anastasia, I don’t think there’s anything for you to do here

“Selena, don’t you think you owe me an explanation? You copied my design, you should at least give me an explanation”
As a jewelry designer, Anastasia took her work very seriously and could not tolerate plagiarism. She didn’t expose Selena earlier

Selena said coldly, “Anastasia, watch your words. That was my design. I don’t owe you any explanation What can a high school
graduate like you design? You’re just trying to get famous. That was a bracelet I designed for Wendy How dare you accuse me?”

Do you want to go with me to Mr. Victor for confirmation? Anastasia grabbed Selena’s wrist 1 still have the original sketch. Let’s
see whose work it is”
Anastasia used to respect Selena After all, Selena was someone she once admired But now, Selenas actions exposed her true
colors.
Plagianism was a matter of integrity Lauren had mentioned before that Selena was plagiarizing and taking advantage of junior
designers. Anastasia thought it was just a rumor, but it turned out to be true
Selena, looking a bit uneasy pushed Anastasia away and exaggeratedly said. “Anastasia, I am the chief designer. I wouldn’t
plagiarize. If it’s similar to your design, it’s just a coincidence.”
Anastasia scoffed, “So that’s how you became the chief designer. I see.”
Selena’s face turned red, and she argued, “Anastasia, my character is not up for judgement by a junior assistant like you.
Remember, the bracelet was my design if I hear any negative comments, your career in jewelry design is over”
Anastasia laughed sarcastically Wasnt this a threat?
“So our chief designer isn’t new to this kind of thing, she’s quite skilled at
