Chapter 655
When Brittany came back to Imperial City, it was the height of summer. Three months later, the city was already
deep into autumn, as if it had transitioned overnight.
The road outside the studio was lined with trees.
Brittany stepped out of the studio after a busy day of work, only to find a black luxury car parked outside.
The car door opened, and Joseph was in the back seat, holding a dagger with its sharp tip exposed.
“Ms. Dustin, have you moved recently?”.
Brittany looked at Joseph, her eyes wary. “What are you up to this time, Mr. Joseph? Planning to wreck my studio?”
His tactics were low, so she had to be on guard at all times.
Joseph leaned against the leather seat. “Ms. Dustin, do me a favor, will you?”
I don’t think we’re that close.” Brittany cut him off.
I’m getting engaged soon, and I want you to design the engagement jewelry.”
Joseph got out of the car and slowly walked over to Brittany…
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIn some ways, he admired Brittany. She had built her own studio in Imperial City through her hard work and
developed it step by step.
If Brittany could be more compliant, he would be happy to cooperate with her and even help her achieve greater
success.
Brittany looked into Joseph’s deep eyes and thought of Stella.
“Ms. Stella?”
“Yes, we’ve been engaged for quite some time.”
He had been delaying the wedding, which had spleased his family. This time, the family had set the date, and they
had no room to refuse.
Brittany knew that Joseph was tough, but she didn’t dare refuse again.
“I need at least a week.” She would need a week
complete the design.
“No can do.” Joseph shook his head. “A week is too long. I can give you three days at most.”
That was the most he could give.
Brittany pursed her lips. “Mr. Joseph, let’s talk inside.”
She had refused the acquisition proposal and was now an enemy of Joseph’s. If she refused to cooperate now, she
was afraid that Joseph would harm those around her.
She couldn’t afford any losses.
Joseph was pleased with her cooperation and walked into the studio.
Kari hadn’t left yet. After seeing Joseph, she instinctively wanted to go over.
But Tina stopped her. They couldn’t afford to offend Joseph lightly.
Kari bit her lip, hating her inability to fight against Joseph.
When Isaac heard that Joseph had gone to see Brittany, his expression grew serious. “What’s Joseph doing with
her?”
“He’s getting engaged soon, and he wants Ms. Dustin to take on the design work.”
Nathan was also at a loss. What was Joseph up to?
He was putting pressure on Brittany while also giving her orders, which was hard to understand.
“Is Joseph trying to put Ms. Dustin in a difficult position?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDesigning a full set of jewelry in three days was no easy task. Moreover, Joseph was notoriously picky. If he intended
to intentionally set Brittany up, she might not be able to cope.
Isaac lightly tapped the table. “How’s the investigation into the Palmer family going?”
“There was some issue with a deal the Palmer family had previously.””
Nathan didn’t expect Isaac to risk dealing with the Palmer family.
“Keep investigating”
Isaac thought about Brittany’s wrecked home and rubbed his temples. He had to deal with the Palmer family issue
soon, so he could relax.
Two hours later, Brittany saw Joseph out.
Before leaving, Joseph turned his head and said, “Ms. Dustin, about the acquisition, I’m giving you a month to think
it over.”
Brittany gave him a slight smile..
After Joseph left, Kari came over. “Brittany, what’s Joseph trying to do?”
“He wants me to draw a design.”
After thinking about Joseph’s long list of demands, Brittany rubbed her temples, feeling a headache coming on.
She wasn’t confident that she would be able to draw a design that satisfied him in three days.
