First Love Only? I Left Him First, Now the CEO Can't Let Go novel Chapter 123

Chapter 123: Chapter 123: Disqualified

In the office, Serena Jennings was looking at the jewelry sample Sharon Sanders had just given her.

This was a necklace designed and crafted by Sharon Sanders herself, featuring an emerald.

Of course, it wasn’t made of high-quality natural emeralds, but with synthetic ones.

Although the cutting still had a lot of room for improvement, the design wasn’t bad, and Serena Jennings praised it repeatedly, which made Sharon Sanders blush.

Sharon Sanders knew very well that her design skills were far below Serena Jennings’ standards.

Just comparing to her own previous works, it was a significant improvement, so Serena Jennings was encouraging her, and she couldn’t get carried away.

"Excuse me, sir, whom are you looking for? This is J Jewelry’s office, private access is not allowed."

Nancy Young, who sat closest to the entrance, stood up.

She didn’t recognize the man who strode into the office, but he was quite handsome, dressed elegantly in exquisite attire, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, looking like a refined and young university professor.

Upon hearing Nancy Young’s words, others in the office also noticed the presence of this unexpected guest.

Patrick Rhodes had clearly just reminded himself to avoid contact with Ian Blackwood if possible, yet today, Serena Jennings met Ian Blackwood again.

Ian Blackwood was wearing a different suit from last time, but still had on the gold-rimmed glasses, with a playfully arrogant smile on his face, which diluted his confusingly refined aura a bit.

This time, Ian Blackwood did not come alone.

He brought someone with him.

Serena Jennings was not welcoming, even loathing Ian Blackwood’s arrival.

But the person behind Ian Blackwood piqued her interest.

The person was a woman.

The woman, though appearing to be from Country A, had her hair styled in large golden waves, and everything about her makeup and attire gave off the impression of a big name in the Western fashion world.

In fact, she was indeed a big shot.

Serena Jennings knew the woman, but thought she wouldn’t know her.

The woman was named Miranda, editor-in-chief of the top global jewelry magazine "Radiance", a foreign Chinese who had become an authority in the jewelry fashion industry at a young age.

Serena Jennings had only seen photos of Miranda in magazines or online before, never expecting to meet her in person today.

Miranda entered with an international luxury brand ensemble from head to toe, her aura even overshadowing Ian Blackwood’s.

Initially, Nancy Young had thought Ian Blackwood had come to the wrong place, but she sensed the imposing aura from Ian Blackwood and Miranda, as if they came to cause trouble.

"Boss..."

Nancy Young immediately hid next to Serena Jennings, clearly a bit scared.

The only male employee in their studio, Quentin Xavier, happened to be out, so if Ian Blackwood indeed meant to pick a fight, perhaps only Serena Jennings, who had practiced martial arts, could possibly be his opponent.

However, Serena Jennings didn’t believe Ian Blackwood came here intending to start a fight.

Because the person Ian Blackwood brought was not a thug, but Miranda.

"Mr. Blackwood, please state your purpose; otherwise, I’ll have to call security to escort you out."

Serena Jennings stood up, her aura almost equal to Ian Blackwood’s.

Ian Blackwood glanced at Serena Jennings, pushed his gold-rimmed glasses, and lowered his gaze onto the desk in front of Serena Jennings.

"Is this the sample you prepared for the LD Jewelry Fashion Week?"

Ian Blackwood picked up the emerald necklace from Serena Jennings’ desk and examined it from all angles.

"Just this...?"

He didn’t finish his later words.

He meant to say, is this even fit to be Claire’s competitor?

But because Miranda was here, he refrained from mentioning Claire Shaw’s name, to avoid inadvertently helping her.
