“hey，Fred。 ”

“hi，bee。 ”

New York, USA.

A café.

Catherine, who had already returned, walked in, and a handsome brown-haired guy in his thirties sat there waving.

Her rumored boyfriend, Fredrick Sykes.

Ambiguous, there must be. The relationship is also good.

If they were Orientals, they would know a word, but even if they weren't, they could be described as ...... Friends are above, lovers are not full.

But maybe when the relationship will be confirmed and married?

Until then, it won't affect their friendship.

After all, they are all celebrities and celebrities in the fashion industry.

"You just came back to me, did you bring a gift?"

The man is a gentleman, with a gentle smile and a good-natured joke.

However, Catherine was stunned for a moment, a little apologetic: "Sorry, Fred. This time......"

“no，no。 just，joking。 ”

Looking at Catherine, Fred frowned slightly: "Bee, I feel like you have something on your mind." Didn't this trip go well?"

Catherine paused, shook her head and smiled: "It's a little something, I want to ask you for some advice." ”

Fred shrugged: "Just say." I don't think we need to be polite. ”

Catherine handed over a hand-drawn paper and planner and motioned to Fred: "On this trip, I stumbled upon an entrepreneur who was about to enter the fashion industry in the hometown of the designer Jeongdury. Give me an idea and creative ...... that I really like"

"Oh?"

Fred took it and said with a smile: "Do you still need my advice? Ms. Anna is an authority in the fashion industry...... I mean on a global scale. ”

Catherine was silent, nodded half-loudly and said, "She gave a review...... It's just not constructive. ”

Fred shook his hand and put it down helplessly: "Then what else do I watch." Do I dare to say that Ms. Anna's comments are not constructive?"

Catherine frowned and sighed, "Why are you like this?"

Fred was surprised: "Even me?"

Looking tentatively at Catherine, Fred spoke: "So, you're not just looking for me to evaluate?"

Catherine chuckled and nodded, "You're the last." I consulted with professionals in the circle before, and almost every one of them followed my mother's advice. Even at first, I hid that a few of them thought the idea was good, but when I told my mother what I thought, they immediately changed their minds, saying that the project was not worth mentioning and could not be done at all. ”

Fred looked at Catherine, shook his head and smiled, "You don't seem to be focusing on this so-called plan, but rather on having an argument with Lady Anna." ”

Catherine thought for a moment and said, "There's no denying the meaning of this. But actually, I really like the project. ”

Fred shook his head: "First of all, bee." You have to know that the attention you pay in the fashion circle today is brought to you by Ms. Anna. Secondly, you are a journalist, you are not a designer, you are not a businessman. You don't need and why you don't need to be angry with your mother for an outsider's plan, especially if she's still the queen of fashion. ”

Looking at the silent Catherine, Fred spoke: "I don't really understand, what your purpose is. Why? ”

Catherine took a deep breath and looked at Fred, "yes, you're right. The project itself doesn't matter, because it's not mine, and it has nothing to do with me. ”

Fred frowned: "It's not like your temperament and character. It's always been gentle, kind, and affinable.。 You'll never argue with anyone over anything. Nor is your upbringing and self-cultivation to this extent. ”

Catherine pursed the corners of her mouth and looked up half-loudly: "Fred." I think maybe it was my thirtieth birthday that made me reflect on the past. I may have been influenced too much by my mother, and even today, even if I am just a journalist, it is difficult for me to really become an ordinary person. It's more about the fashion industry testing my mother's reaction by following me, even if she sneezes. ”

Fred spread his hands: "What's wrong with that? You're her daughter." ”

"But I don't want to be her vassal. ”

Catherine's tone was deep, surprised Fred and felt her seriousness.

"I don't want to live in her shadow. ”

Catherine looked at Fred: "I'm already thirty years old, if I can't struggle any longer, I'm afraid I'll sink in the future and lose the courage to break free." ”

Fred pondered for a long time and nodded slowly: "I understand." You can be proud of her, but you won't want to live under her wing forever. ”

Catherine chuckled: "Or maybe when she will always pass away one day, and because of her passing or stepping down from the altar, I have also lost the attention and attention of the gods." It's frustrating, even though I don't care at the moment. ”

"Haha. ”

Fred laughed and looked at Catherine: "You're always so cute and humorous. ”

Catherine shrugged, then frowned at Fred, "So, you help me take a look." Is this plan really as she says it is? ”

Fred paused, and said helplessly: "I already have a preconceived idea. If I refute, it seems to be a deliberate refutation for your sake. If I also say no, it seems to be in line with Ms. Anna's opinion. ”

Catherine also understood what he meant, and sighed and said, "I wouldn't have told you if I had known." ”

Fred blinked: "But my two sisters don't know yet." And her artistic attainments and experience are much higher than mine. ”

Catherine's eyes lit up and she smiled and nodded, "I forgot about Victoria and Lucy." ”

After speaking, he got up and motioned: "Go find them." ”

Fred laughed, "They've got jobs, okay? Besides, they don't work together." ”

Catherine smiled and dragged him: "You help me make an appointment, just say that I came back from abroad and invite them to dinner." ”

Fred shook his head, but didn't say much, and came out with her.

Get on the bus and separate, Fred asks someone to book, and Catherine books a place.

“hey，bee。 ”

As they were about to separate, Fred suddenly stopped Catherine, who turned back in confusion.

Fred stepped forward with a strange look and asked, "bee...... Why does it have to be this project? and not something else?"

Catherine paused, smiled and looked at Fred: "Then you say, what should I work on?"

Fred scratched his head and spread his hands and said, "You're not serious, are you?In what way are you going to argue with Lady Anna?What if someone affirms the plan? You go to Lady Anna and show off loudly that what she says isn't necessarily right?Question her authority? I'm afraid Lucy and Victoria will turn back and blame you if they know the truth." ”

Catherine bowed her head and was silent, and signaled with a half-smile: "Let's go find it first." Of course, I don't question my mother's opinion and evaluation. But at least you can really start to take the initiative to exercise your vision, rather than relying on the talent you have been immersed in since childhood. Transform talent into ability and judgment. ”

Fred drove away suspiciously, and Catherine got into the car and drove away. It's just that there is one more sentence, which is not finished.

Maybe it's time to take action to struggle for your future life and destiny.

Sure enough, it is worthy of the hometown of Zheng Duli designer, and he inadvertently went on a trip, but encountered such a seemingly ordinary thing, but he inexplicably made himself determined to make a change.

Perhaps, this is fate.

"What are you doing here?"

"New York Fashion Week. ”

“……”

"Jessi, didn't you come to the United States to show BLANCE at Fashion Week?"

There is also a house in New York.

Jessica's family is actually not a chaebol super-wealthy, but the conditions are definitely good.

At this moment, I was living in New York, and when I opened the door, I saw Quan Ningyi's familiar and unfamiliar face as if nothing had happened.

Forget, he's been here before.

"Why won't the phone turn on?"

Quan Ning took advantage of Jessica's silence and went in.

Jessica frowned at something, but then closed the door.

"Good thing I know where you live. ”

Quan Ning smiled, his tone was gentle, as gentlemanly and personable as when he first met him.

Jessica folded her shoulders and leaned to the side, bowing her head in silence.

Quan Ning paused one by one, clapped his hands, and said, "That's right." In Seoul, I'm now at CCP (short name for his entertainment company), and I'm looking for something there. ”

Jessica tilted her head, "I don't have anything to do with you." ”

Quan Ning was silent for a while, and said half-loudly: "Jessi." You need me to apologize, or you don't. I have to apologize. But I know that it may be with you, losing trust, and an apology is not so important. ”

Looking up at Jessica, who didn't respond, Quan Ning spoke: "I just want you to try to understand a man's emotions in that situation at that time, if you can do it without losing control, I will admire him very much but myself, obviously I didn't do it." It's not really how to complain and be angry at you. ”

Jessica sneered at him, "At least in your eyes, I'm already a being who can make you feel angry." ”

Quan Ning sighed, got up and spoke: "It's better to say than to do." Anyway, whatever I explain, you'll think it's a quibble. I hope that we will not be affected in our future partnership. ”

After speaking, he took out a check and motioned to Jessica: "This is fifty thousand dollars." Not much compared to your investment. But it's a little bit of sincerity on my part. I don't have much liquidity now, you know, and it's hard for me to pay you back all at once. Besides, if you want me to return your funds, it also means that you want to end this three-year hard work. You can think carefully and find a lawyer. I just don't want us to end up like this. ”

Jessica was stunned for a moment, looking at the check on the table, Quan Ningyi had actually walked away, and the door had been closed. Before and after, less than five minutes.

Jessica bit her lip and came to the window to look at Quan Ningyi's back outside the window and got into the car and drove away.

Emotions are complicated because she is simple-minded.

That's why it's complicated.

It's not stupid to be simple-minded, it's her personality that never thinks about things that are too complicated, but now, it's really hard for her to tell which one is the real him.

The hateful face always forces her to do what she doesn't want to do.

even moved all the money she invested to threaten her.

But if it's really that hateful, no matter how stupid you are, you won't be fooled.

Because once, he wasn't like that.

At least, he took good care of himself before and after he left the team.

She wouldn't be naïve enough to think that she had to have no purpose to call it purely for your own good.

Even fans are looking forward to getting something spiritual from you to feed you.

But now, it's hard for her to say whether she's shaken or not.

She just didn't know what attitude to use to face all this.

Hiding in the United States...... I can't hide from it. 21010
