Ethan chuckled. “The world’s a big ce. Do you really think you’ll just run into acquaintances everywhere?”
“True.”
Besides, if Roxanne actually knew Ethan, she wouldn’t have said she didn’t have any friends in Crestavia.
They quickly forgot all about it and moved on, neither of them giving it another thought.
The quarterly productunch was finally over, and Dawn could finally rx.
But work was never–ending.
The next day at the office, Linda called a departmental meeting to review results and set things up for the next quarter.
“From what I can see, the ‘Breath of the Wilds‘, ‘Spirit of the Stars‘, and ‘Wilderness Realm‘ lines are all selling really well. Even the sales of our luxury custom line are up several percentage points fromst quarter.”
Linda rested both hands on the desk and looked up.
“Dawn.”
“You’ll continue as Dreammaker Studios‘ lead designer. From now on, all of our original designs will go through you first, and you can start mapping out the theme for next quarter right away.”
Dawn hesitated. “Ms. Greenwood, me?”
“Is there anyone else who goes by the name Dawn?”
Linda knew about Dawn’s ties to the boss, but as long as it wasn’t out in the open, Dawn was still just her employee.
She was pragmatic but also very serious about work. And honestly, this kind of challenge would only be good for Dawn.
It took Dawn a couple of seconds to answer. “I feel like I’m still too inexperienced. I can’t keep holding onto the lead designer spot forever.”

“Experiencees with time. That doesn’t conflict with anything.”
“But…
“You don’t have any confidence in yourself?”
Dawn was at a loss for words.
She looked into Linda’s eyes and just fell silent.

Linda stayed serious. “There’s no one in thepany better suited than you right now. I’m giving you this position because I believe in you. And if you ever run into problems, you can alwayse to me. Everyone here is here to support your work. What are you still worried about?”
Dawn pressed her lips together. She had nothing else to say.
“What about the rest of you? Any objections?”
Everyone else in the meeting room had just been sitting back watching, but once they got called on, they all nced at each other and shook their heads.
Initially, some people used to think Dawn got her job through connections. But now, they genuinely epted her.
Linda looked pleased and nodded. “That’s it for today. Meeting’s over.”
After the meeting, Janice slung an arm around Dawn’s shoulders. “Ms. Porter, don’t forget about us when you’re rich and famous.”
Dawn nced at her. “You could achieve that, too.”
“Says who? I definitely couldn’t!”
Janice shook her head quickly. “You’ve earned every bit of this. Did you see how everyone in the Design Department looks at you? If I were the lead designer, they’d probably eat me alive.”
Dawn sighed and didn’t answer.
Suddenly, she remembered Ethan mentioning a honeymoon …

Janice caught her gloomy expression and thought she was stressed about work. She pouted in sympathy. “The new quarter’s work really is tough. Just working with Ms. West is going to be a

headache. People say she’s moody and entric.”
“Roxanne?”
Dawn had honestly forgotten about her.
But after how things went yesterday, she seemed… not so hard to work with.
It wasn’t long before Dawn ran into the so–called difficult Ms. West again.

To her, Roxanne was nothing like the rumors. She wasn’t hard to get along with at all. In fact, she even brought Dawn a gift.
“If I’d known I’d meet you so soon aftering back to Crestavia, I would have brought something from overseas. But it’s still not toote. Please just ept this, okay?”
Dawn looked at the luxury brand shopping bag. A purse from this brand had to cost tens of thousands at least.
She pushed it back. “This is way too expensive, Ms. West. I can’t ept it.”
“So you don’t think of me as a friend?”
“I … ”
“Dawn, it’s rare for me to meet someone on the same wavelength, so I am beyond grateful. But if my way of showing it makes you ufortable, I apologize.”
There was a trace of hurt on Roxanne’s face, and the breeze through the window lifted her hair, making her look even more fragile.
Dawn hesitated but stood her ground.
“I’d love to be friends with you, Ms. West, but I can’t ept such an expensive gift for nothing.
Seeing how determined Roxanne was, she came up with a middle–ground solution. “How about this–once our project wraps up, then you can give it to me.”
Roxanne saw she was serious and had no choice but to hand the bag to her assistant.
“Alright then, I’ll hang onto it. Once we’ve wrapped up our partnership, it’s yours.”
Dawn quietly breathed a sigh of relief and nodded.
After that, they got down to business. She took Roxanne to Linda’s office, and after going over

all the details, they signed the contract on the spot.

Linda was happy, but she couldn’t help feeling like it had all gone a little <i>too </i>smoothly.
“I didn’t expect Ms. West to be so straightforward. Are you sure you don’t want to look around some more?”
“There’s nothing left to see.” Roxanne’s eyes were clear and bright. “With Dawn on your team, I’d already made up my mind before we even had this meeting.”
