Chapter 153

While holding her own glass in her hand, Anastasia made an internalcall and asked Grace to send over another glass of water.

Something suddenly flashed across Anastasia’s mind. She didn’t reactmuch when Elliot had been using her glass at home all this while, sowhy did she react like this now? Why did she show such a hugereaction when all Nigel did was try to drink from her glass?

“Are you really eating with us at night?” Anastasia subconsciously askedas she sipped the water in her glass.

Nigel elegantly sipped his water and answered, “I have to treat youguys to a fancy meal.”

“Alright, then. I have some work to attend to. Please wait for me until Iget off work.”

He returned her seat to her, then he suddenly rose up when he thoughtabout something. “I'm going over to look for Elliot. I'll see you in awhile.”

“Okay,” Anastasia replied, nodding with her chin propped on her hands.However, when Nigel was at the door, he abruptly looked back at thewoman behind the desk. “Anastasia, are you close with Elliot?”

She reflexively responded, “Not close. We are not close at all.”

He smiled before he pushed the door open and left the room.Anastasia exhaled in relief as she comforted herself. Why do I feel likeI'm in a secret relationship with Elliot? Why do I need to keep tellinglies? Come to think about it, there's nothing between me and Elliot, sothat's not considered a lie!

She took her phone and texted the man. “I'm having dinner with Nigeland Jared tonight, so I won't be making dinner. After sending themessage, she exhaled in relief at the thought of being able to rest forone night.

At this moment, Felicia knocked on her door and entered her roomwhile being followed by a young lady behind her.

“Anastasia, you have a customer.”

Although Anastasia had traumatic experiences with clients whorequested customized products, she quickly rose to her feet politely togreet her, “Hello.”

“Miss Tillman, I have a friend who is interested in your designs. Shewants to customize a necklace for her boyfriend.”

“No problem. Please, have a seat. Why didn't your friend come withyou?"

“She's abroad. She has no time to return, so she has asked me to meetyou about the design.”

Felicia and Anastasia exchanged glances before she hinted, “The femalecustomer who requested

the custom-made jewelry said that she saw magazines that featuredyour designs when she was abroad. She really adores your style ofdesign.”

“Yes, my friend saw magazines about you when she was abroad and hastaken a liking to you.” The lady smiled.

The explanation cleared Anastasia’'s doubt. She had indeed beenfeatured in magazines in which she had shared a few passages abouther thoughts in jewelry design.

“My friend said that she wants to customize a pair of matchingnecklaces. The one that she plans to give her boyfriend will look like alock, while the other one, which she will be wearing, will look like a key.Miss Tillman, you are free to design them as you wish, but she hopes tosee the final product by the end of the month.”

Anastasia blinked and looked up at Felicia, who carefully checked thecalendar before responding, “If you are able to prepare the design inthree days, it's possible to see the final product by the end of themonth.”

“Okay, I'll try my best to prepare the draft in three days.” Anastasiapromised.

“That's great. My friend hopes to have two English letters engraved onthe lock, which are the initials of the last names of her and herboyfriend.”

Anastasia immediately grabbed her notebook. “Sure. What are theletters, though?”

“The initial of her boyfriend's last name is the letter “P’, while hers is theletter “S’. She wants a heart shaped design at the center of the lock.”“Sure. No problem. I'll add that in the design.” Anastasia nodded.“Great. How about the price?”

Felicia chimed in, “What's your friend's budget?”

“About 5 million.”

Anastasia and Felicia exchanged glances. It seems like this lady's friendis wealthy! That's a really handsome budget.

“I see. Please have faith in Miss Tillman. She will definitely present youwith the best design. Besides, the materials that we will be using andour craftsmanship are no doubt one of the very best in the industry.”“Okay, I'll first pay 2 million as a deposit on behalf of my friend, and thebalance will be paid after the final product is ready.”

Thereafter, Felicia led the lady out of the office while Anastasia wassuddenly very motivated. She never thought that such a generousorder, which allowed her to obtain a commission of 3 percent as well asa year-end bonus, would present itself to her. To her, this was certainlya small fortune.
