The next day, Aurelia took William to Arnold's villa for a farewell gathering after school.

"Should we visit Nova tomorrow?" "I'll see her before | leave." Arnold's gaze was unwavering as he looked at her. He knew he had hurt her and let her down. Once he was divorced, he planned to woo her anew and win her back. Never again would he forsake her for anything or anyone.

Since his marriage to Lisa, Aurelia had begun to drift away, leaving their closeness a thing of the past.
"William, do you miss our hin Goldstone? How about we spend Christmas there?" "Yeah!" William nodded eagerly.
A hint of regret crossed Aurelia's face as she replied, "I might be too busy with the new launch over Christmas." Arnold knew she was under much pressure. "| heard Ethereal Gems hired a new designer to rival you?" "Yes, very high-profile. Not just in the jewelry world, but all high society knows about it." Aurelia shrugged. Viola's tactics were also a marketing stunt. Everyone's eyes were on this battle. If she could pull off an upset, her fwould skyrocket.
Arnold smirked. "Can't wait to see her get put in her place." Aurelia said, "She's poached Evelyn, too. Evelyn knows our department's style well, so I've pressured our team to innovate and shift our design approach." This time, she'd rejected all the initial drafts for lacking originality.
Although she was the head designer, she didn't want the company's success resting solely on her shoulders. She only designed the flagship products. Other sales couldn't lag. Each designer had to utilize their talent fully.
Arnold's eyes softened, filled with tender admiration. "No one can beat our genius designer." Aurelia offered a wry smile. "We'll see. There's always someone better, and the strong are always outdone by the stronger. | have to keep improving to stay ahead of the wave."
