Restore scroll position Chapter 331There was a period of relative calm between the Berenike Hotel and KS World Hotel on the surface, but they were secretly competing with each other.Their potential client, Ada Kingsley, was an international star who was an icon of the entertainment industry.She loved high-profile, extravagant events, and naturally, she would scoff at any wedding sponsors that were not luxury brands.It was public knowledge that Ada herself was a seasoned jewelry collector. She had even hosted small-scale private jewelry exhibitions, showcasing pieces worth no less than millions.For her grand wedding, she made a strict request at the two competing hotels-offering her one-of- a-kind jewelry crafted by true masters."Ada made it clear that she wanted something one of its kind to match her superstar status,” Xavier reported the request by Ada’s assistant word by word to Jasper and the upper management in the meeting.He continued, “She also mentioned that she has no limits for the design and designers of the jewelry. Shewants Berenike and KS World to come up with solutions. Whoever offers the better sponsor will get herbusiness. And Ada Kingsley keeps her word.”Jasper listened to the update with a frown as he tapped a pen on the table with a heavy look in his eyes.The upper management of the hotel was taken aback and huddled together to deliberate on the request."She's asking for the best in everything. Isn't this an attempt to take advantage of us? We're not her bottomless vault!”"A global superstar, she says. She really thinks highly of herself, doesn’t she?”"And what's with the open-ended mission? She feels more like a question setter for exams than a superstar.”Jasper looked up and cast pressure on the others. “This is a meeting room, not an online chatroom. Keepyour mouth shut if you don't have any ideas.”Everyone fell silent and racked their brains for solutions after their boss was enraged.The director of design rattled off a list of prominent jewelry designers abroad. She even prepared presentation slides to introduce the background and representative work of each designer in detail. 1/3Jasper listened to it unemotionally and suddenly questioned, “Why isn't Alexa on your list?”The mere mention of Alexa sent a collective hush through the room.“What's wrong? What's that look on everyone's face?” Jasper asked, furrowing his brow, unaware of thereason for the silence."Ahem... Mr. Beckett, I regret to tell you that we will never get Alexa to work for us...” the director stammered."Why? Is she dead?”Everyone was speechless at Jaspers sincere questionAs the president of the Beckett Group, he was good at business negotiations and company management.However, he had little knowledge about the jewelry and fashion industries.5“No, she’s well and alive. The problem is that Alexa is seen as the legend of the jewelry design industry.“The designers I showed you all hold Alexa in high esteem. Some even admitted to drawing inspirationfrom Alexa’s work when they hit creative roadblocks."Alexa is an exceptional icon of the design world. Anyone who gets a hand on her jewelry would considerthemselves lucky and cherish it like a family heirloom"How could we possibly afford to commission Alexa to create a one-of-a-kind piece for Ada Kingsley?It's... an unrealistic dream.”The director herself was a devoted fan of Alexa, and she felt personally affronted by the notion of havingAlexa design jewelry for a celebrity like Ada.“Icon or no icon, Alexa is human, and she has her weakness.” Jasper remained stubborn as he insisted on the best solution. He announced, “We will select Alexa as the jewelry designer for Ada Kingsley's weddingEveryone immediately wondered what the hell he was thinking. The director began to perspire profusely.” But Mr. Beckett, the designers I mentioned are highly accomplished experts.“They have received international recognition for their work. Their jewelry is definitely presentable Jasper calmly shook his head. “I didn't reject your recommendations because they aren't good. You did a great job, but you've underestimated our competition.”Everyone exchanged glances.2/3"Our rival this time is KS World Hotel, led by Alyssa Taylor.”+15 BONUSHe used to have a headache at the mention of Alyssa’s name, but this time, his eyes were sparkling with admiration and respect.Jasper continued, “I know her well. She's a perfectionist, much like myself. She must have learned about Ada Kingsley's request, just as we did. Do you believe that, with KS Group's wealth and her steeliness,she'd half-ass this?” Share to your friends Chapter 331 Tip: You can use left, right keyboard keys to browse between chapters.Tap the middle of the screen to reveal Reading Options.
