Chapter 230:
After pausing briefly, Belinda accepted the gift box with a smile and said, “Thank you, Darren!”
Seeing her smile, Darren chose not to say anything more.
Once they had finished the cake, they headed out to a karaoke bar to sing.
Holding the microphone in the private room, Madisyn announced, “Kristopher got divorced and he booked a bar
to celebrate. We're doing the sfor Belinda tonight! Let's get hammered!”
Belinda’s smile widened at that.
The atmosphere was lively and joyful.
It had been a long tsince she'd felt this happy.
They stayed out until midnight before heading home.
Back in her apartment, Belinda sank into the sofa and pulled out her cellphone. She scrolled through her
contacts to find the friend who hadn't replied to her in four years and sent a message... “Joyce, if only you were
here tonight.”

under her desk.
With a frown, she retrieved the seldom-used phone.
It was a message from Belinda.
Cathy read the text, her lips curling into a sneer.
She muttered under her breath, “Don’t worry, Belinda. Joyce will be gone soon!”
“Belinda, cto my office.”
On her second day at the company, as soon as Belinda arrived, Ryland summoned her to his office.

The bald, middle-aged man smiled at Belinda as he slid an agreement across the desk. “You did a great job
yesterday. Mr. Cox from the Cox Group has requested that our stuprovide jewelry designs for his fiancée and
sister for important events. He specifically asked for you to handle it personally. Were you aware of that?”
“Yes,” Belinda responded, nodding.
Before she had cto work today, she had anticipated that her boss might discuss this matter with her,
although she hadn't expected it to be so soon.
“Even though I'm aware of the delicate dynamics between you, Mr. Cox, and his fiancée...” Ryland stared intently
at her and continued, “This is a valuable opportunity we shouldn't pass up. Making our stuwell-known will
bring more attention to your designs in the future, correct?”
“I understand,” Belinda said with another nod.
Seeing that she had no objections, Ryland pushed the supplementary agreement toward her with a grin. “From
now on, you'll not only be a designer here, but you'll also be responsible for creating jewelry for Miss Cox and
Miss Miller. Your workload will triple... Make sure there are no errors.”
Belinda frowned slightly as she reviewed the agreement on the desk and then signed her name.
She slid the agreement back to Ryland and asked, “Has the client provided any feedback on my designs?”
Ryland seemed momentarily taken aback by her directness but soon recovered, nodding as he handed her a
document. “Yes.”
