[Ding! Do you want to sign in?]
The familiar notification sounded as Diamond rummaged through her closet to look for a formal outfit to wear for the appointnt, she has with the Chairwoman of Pace Sportswear brand.
’Sign in!’ feeling a bit tired, she hurriedly responded, without even having thoughts of teasing the system.
[Ding! You have been rewarded with a stew recipe book.]
When she heard that, her brows corked with surprise. She wasn’t expecting to receive another food-related reward anyti soon.
So, she was truly surprised, and once that was gone, happiness was all over her face.
It was as if the system and the deity who loved her so much were urging her to open that restaurant, she had registered but didn’t open.
Diamond didn’t bother to check the recipes yet, since there was still much for her to do.
Since her appointnt was official and more formal, she needed to look the part. However, she didn’t want to look rigid, as that was never her style.
After rummaging through her closet, she ended up picking a nice black pencil skirt and a bowtie white blouse.
She paired this simple formal wear with a pair of good heels. It’s been ages since she wore heels, and now she was feeling like it.
It was more so after getting a report from Andrea about who she was eting. Although she didn’t want to be serious, she didn’t want to lose out when facing another woman as well. Especially one who was successful and didn’t require the help of a system.
She dolled herself a bit and once all that was done; she picked the car keys for the Angel XI. It’s been a while since she drove this baby of hers.
With everything dealt with, she left her bedroom and headed downstairs for breakfast.
Since she had an appointnt at ten, Diamond didn’t plan to leave the house early like she does on other occasions. This ant that by the ti she was seated at the dining table, it was just her alone with everyone gone.
Her parents went to work while Auntie Grace was eting with her friends and Garnet was busy with the cafes. As for Ruby, she was at school. Unfortunately, she won’t be able to co this weekend.
She heard that the assignnts were too much and she would need to have group etings or so with her classmates.
Diamond ate her food unhurriedly as she listened to Andrea’s report regarding the ss which happened yesterday when she and the boys visited the café.
If she had known that the impact would be that crazy, she wouldn’t have gone there at all. Unfortunately, it was already too late by the ti she realized what was happening.
It was yesterday that Diamond finally realized how popular she was. Not only her, but Wyatt as well. His other friends weren’t that popular, but they still held a certain montum, unlike other people.
Whilst her arrival might not have caused noise as she hoped, the news spread pretty fast that she was there. As a result, she was unable to enjoy the cakes and milk tea she desperately wanted to have.
She was forced to hold a mini fan eting, took selfies and signed autographs. In fact, Admire had to co over to maintain order. Without the security, it would have been hard to leave there.
And from Andrea’s reports, she was hearing how that small event was still garnering attention and the JEWELS were busy crying for a fan eting event; they were literally begging to spend and co to see her.
How could she not be touched when hearing such eagerness?
As she drove later to her appointnt, she was busy pondering what she should do. She didn’t want the event to be hasty, as that might not turn out well.
So, a lot of preparations were necessary and it would be better to hold such events later when the majority of the projects are completed.
Diamond and the chairwoman were eting at a nice and quiet restaurant, which happened to be in the CBD.
When she arrived at the parking lot, it was sowhere near ten. She had taken her ti at ho and on the road. She wasn’t a man and wasn’t planning on waiting for a lady. She didn’t work like that.
When she arrived, she alighted from the car and learning from her past mistakes; she brought a nice pair of sunglasses which covered nearly half of her face, making it a perfect cover to hide herself. At least for a short while.
With her handbag in hand, she left the parking lot and sauntered her way to the beautiful building where this restaurant was.
It was her first ti being on this other side of the CBD. She wasn’t soone who loved exploring a lot. Most of her ti she was busy doing this and that, as a result, she tended to visit places she had already been.
However, just because she had never been there didn’t an that she would act like a fool. With her filial and ever-efficient son, Andrea, there was nothing difficult for her at all.
So, all those who saw her, simply saw a confident career woman walking and couldn’t help but take a few sneak peeks.
However, there were a few others who squinted their eyes at her, wondering why that silhouette looked familiar. Unfortunately, the answer failed to co, and Diamond was nowhere to be found.
Diamond took the lift from the ground floor and pressed the button for the top floor where the restaurant she was going to was.
Inside the elevator, she wasn’t alone, but there were other people with her. They were all dressed beautifully and formally. One could tell that they were here for business and she couldn’t help but applaud them for their professionalism.
She couldn’t help but rember the years she worked tirelessly like a slave. Working from 7 to 6 every single day without rest. If she had continued to work in that place, she might have been diagnosed with an extra illness and perhaps died of exhaustion.
Because she didn’t want to lose her job, she was more of a yes-sir person. Whatever her superiors gave her, she would do it even if it ant working overti.
She barely took care of herself. Maybe that’s why she ended up having that rash. And thanks to that rash, no matter how unfair everyone was at work, she could only swallow her grievances, since being outspoken about them would an getting fired.
If she had gotten fired, what would she have done?
