I didn’t think much of it and smiled. “We left a while ago. I’ve even taken a shower after getting home.”

“That’s good.”

“Bob… Uncle Bob didn’t cause any more trouble for you, did he?”

Before Jack and I left, he had warned Bob.

Bob kept nodding, practically bowing.

My aunt nodded. “Don’t worry. He’s already signed the divorce agreement and just left.”

I was somewhat surprised. “He signed it so quickly?”

It seemed that Bob was indeed terrified of Jack.

He had insisted earlier that he would claim a share of my assets.

My aunt also breathed a sigh of relief. “Yes, you should really thank Mr. Renolds. He’s a good person.”

“Alright, I’ll find a chance to thank him.”

With my aunt’s divorce resolved, it alleviated a major concern of mine.

From now on, I would only need to care for my aunt, without dealing with that old scoundrel.

The Charlotte Jewelry, a newly established brand, naturally didn’t have many customers.

But that didn’t stop me from being extremely busy.

It took nearly half a month, but I finally finished making Bethany’s engagement dress.

Diamonds, Astrian White pearls, rubies.

Everything was exactly as requested.

The Astrian White pearls were used in the strap design, with a silver–white shimmering fabric and perfectly tailored at the waist, which highlighted the figure. Large fragments of diamonds were embedded in the skirt, sparkling brilliantly even when hanging.

I also designed a matching necklace, featuring an oval ruby of excellent color that gently swayed with movement.

Bethany’s wishes were all met, but the design didn’t appear complicated.

As soon as Jane arrived at work, she called Bethany to come and try on the dress.

However, Bethany dragged out the time until the evening.

By then, everyone else had left, leaving only Jane, Megan, and me in the company.

When Bethany was about to arrive, Jane came in to remind me. “You’d better be prepared. She’s definitely going to make things difficult today and won’t easily pay the balance.”

“It’s fine.”

I stood up and moved to the French window to stretch my neck. “She’s already paid half the amount. If she wants trouble, it will only delay her own engagement party and waste her money. If she insists on making changes, I’ll make them. But she won’t get back the money she’s already paid.”

I turned around and smiled. “Either way, she can’t get the money back once it’s paid.”

“Wow, you’ve really learned how to handle this?” Jane was surprised.

“What else can I do?” I shrugged. “I can’t let you all lose money with me.”

Just then, the office door was knocked on. Megan came in and said politely, “Charlotte, Miss Shaw and her mother are here.”

Bethany and her mother stood at the door, glancing around my office. “Charlotte, where’s the dress?”

“The fitting area.”

I led the mother and daughter to the fitting area.

The dress was hanging right in the center.

Bethany’s eyes immediately lit up but quickly dimmed as she feigned dissatisfaction.

Megan stepped forward, gently took down the dress, and said, “Miss Shaw, please go try it on. Call me if you need anything.”

Most dresses were complicated and difficult for one person to wear alone.

But this one had a very simple design, making it easy to put on and take off.

Bethany had been in the fitting room for less than two minutes when she started shouting, “Are you all dead? Don’t you know to come in and help me?”

Her words were harsh, and Megan frowned.

Bethany’s mother, who had witnessed this, directed her anger at me. “Charlotte, it’s true that the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. A boss like you ends up with employees who don’t know their place!”

“Have a go at me all you want, but don’t involve Ms. Wilson!”

Megan, usually sweet and lively, now had a cold expression, looking quite like a cornered rabbit ready to bite.

Bethany’s mother said coldly, “I’m talking to Charlotte. Who do you think you are to interrupt? If Bethany isn’t satisfied today, not only will we reject this dress, but your company will also be out of business!” “Ma’am, you and your daughter are even more unpleasant than the rumors suggest…”
