Yasmin was a bit surprised and aughed. “Oh? How did you already know? There’s no surprise left.‘

“I saw a post from Joanne before she boarded her flight.”

“Oh, I see.” Yasmin smiled and said, “I’m here on a business. Also, as you’ve heard from Joanne before, Christine likes Jeswood, so I’m planning to check out a few properties here. I’m considering settling down.”

Her tone grew somewhat complex by the end, as if it were a reluctant decision after much struggle. It seemed she didn’t particularly like Jeswood but was doing it to fulfill Christine’s wishes.

I nodded. “It’s clear that you really cherish your daughter.”

“Yes, after all, she’s my only daughter.” Yasmin’s voice softened a bit when she spoke of this. “I’m willing to do anything for her.”

I smiled lightly. “A mother can be very strong. You’re a great mother. By the way, you’ll probably be staying in Jeswood for a while this time, right?”

“Unless something unexpected happens, yes. Why do you ask?”

“I’m starting to make the dress now. It should be ready for a fitting in about a week. If you find anything unsatisfactory when you try it on, we can still make adjustments.”

If my guess was correct, the red carpet event Yasmin was attending was a highly prestigious film award this month. She was attending as a judge.

“Great.” Yasmin agreed with a smile and then said, “There’s something else I wanted to mention. There’s an industry dinner tomorrow with many big shots attending, from both in front and behind the stage. Do

you have any thoughts?”

“Well…” I was initially puzzled, but then quickly realized what she meant. “You want to help me stand my ground in the domestic market?”

I was quite well–known abroad, and many international celebrities have wanted me to design dresses, but my mentor had turned them all down. He said that allowing me to continue designing for the Charlotte Jewelry was a concession he made reluctantly. When I needed to focus on learning, I was to avoid commercial work. Once I was done with my studies, everything would be up to me.

And that was now the case.

Because of this, my domestic reputation was only known among fellow designers. To others, I was still an unknown entity.

Yasmin didn’t confirm or deny what I said. “So, would you like to join me for the dinner?”

Of course, I would like to. However, I hesitated a bit. “Won’t cause you any trouble?”

“It’s a small matter,” Yasmin said with a smile. “Charlotte, I’ll be in Jeswood often from now on. If you need any help with anything in this regard, don’t be shy with me.”

“Ms. Jackson…” I was a bit touched and smiled warmly. “Thank you!”

“Silly girl, it’s just a small favor. No need to thank me,” Yasmin said with a smile. “I’ve already sent you the details of the dinner location. Shall we meet at the hotel?”

“Sure!”

After hanging up the phone, Yasmin held her phone with a hint of melancholy.

In earlier years, Yasmin often had this kind of mood. But in recent years,

Joanne rarely saw her like this. “What’s wrong? Didn’t you quite like Charlotte? Why do you seem unhappy after talking?”

“Not exactly.” Yasmin furrowed her brows. “I’m just too happy. I don’t know why, but I always want to talk to her more or help her more.”

“Well, this is rare.” Joanne smiled. “Last time, you said she’s to your liking. To me, it seems like it’s much more.”

She knew Yasmin appeared easygoing and casual, but she wasn’t that easy to get close to. Though she seemed to get along with everyone, there were only a few people she truly cared about in the past 20 years.

How much Yasmin cared about me surprised Joanne.

We hadn’t met many times at all.

Yasmin cocked her brows. “More? What is it then?”

“It’s to the extent that you could consider her a goddaughter.”

Joanne had accompanied Yasmin from humble beginnings to becoming a major figure in the entertainment industry. Officially, she was her manager, but they were actually close friends who talked about everything.

Yasmin glanced toward the bedroom of the suite, hesitated for a moment, and shook her head. “Christine will be disappointed.”
