Chapter 261 Kelly, who was sitting next to Lola, noticed Lola’s change of expression and asked in concern,” Miss Lola, is everything alright?” “Edwin brought Catelyn here with him in front of a group of employees.” “What?” gasped Kelly in shock. “Could Master Edwin have fallen for her?” “To tell you the truth, Catelyn stole Maia’s fiance from here just a while ago. Her private life is so messy. The fact that Edwin stood up for her got me worried that he might have fallen for her tricks!” Lola spat furiously without hiding the hatred she had for Catelyn.
Kelly had watched Edwin grow up to be an adult, and she knew how playful he was. “I think Master Edwin is smart enough to not fall for her,” muttered Kelly in response, yet her uncertainty could be heard. The meeting room door was pushed open in that instant. Everyone looked up to see Edwin and Catelyn, who followed closely behind. Edwin headed straight to the chairman’s seat and nodded politely to the judges in the meeting room. “Everyone should know the purpose of our meeting today. Miss Catelyn had brought five drafts with her today, and everyone in the seat will decide if she’ll be able to go into finals.
The judges nodded in acknowledgment.
Edwin then gestured for Catelyn to begin. She inserted the USB drive into the port, and following that, a colorful illustration popped up on the screen.
It was separated into five sections.
A couple reached their hands out to each other, they embraced, and then they bid farewell to each other with tears, and finally, they reunited and walked into the hall with wedding bells. A simple five pieces of art were able to interpret a couple’s transition within their relationship.
The color scheme was bright and eye-catching.
“Hello, everyone. Thank you so much for giving me the chance today.” Catelyn then started presenting her works.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
“The man and woman in these photos are childhood friends-turned-lovers, but they broke up because of personal reasons. Later in life, they met again by accident. The man thought of their past and requested for his friend to design a set of jewelry for him, and he gifted it to her, reminding her of their past. The pair then decided to rekindle their relationship and thus reunited.”
She explained and changed the slides accordingly.
The first slide was of a pair of rings with wings that wrapped around the finger. The charms were of two hearts right next to each other, symbolizing that as long as two hearts were
united, all obstacles could be broken. The second slide was of a necklace. Instead of diamonds, however, the necklace was made with tourmaline and ruby, and the pendant depicted blooming fireworks. Fireworks were colorful and dazzling, and even though they lasted only for a short while, the preparation for the fireworks to bloom would take a lot of time and effort. Like a young, independent woman, the feelings between a man and woman did not need praise and admiration from others as they waited quietly for it to bloom.
It symbolized a relationship at its peak and most passionate phase. The third slide was of a brooch. Catelyn took the pendant from the necklace and made it a stand-alone brooch. What came after the fireworks was silence. After that were the fourth and fifth slides. Rings, necklace, brooch, earrings, bracelet-a complete set of five pieces of jewelry. Catelyn explained them one by one thoroughly. Even though Kelly was annoyed with Catelyn, she could not find anything to fault her in her presentation. The judges thus began discussing the presentation. Catelyn observed the judges’ pleased reactions and offered a polite smile, ending her presentation with a conclusion, “For me, a designer isn’t just there to create beautiful, fashionable jewelry to be worn by the customers. Our purpose is also to bring meaning into the works that we create.
“A meaningful work isn’t just unique, but it’ll also last a long time and can become a precious collection in the future. If we blindly follow trends, they’ll eventually become yet another mediocre work in time.”
The meeting room fell into silence.
