Chapter 34

A colorfully dressed Jeremy decided to pay his best friends a visit . As he walked into the office expecting to meet the cute little a.s.sistant but there was no one at the front desk .

Jeremy was just about to walk into their design studio when he heard Xiao Mie praising Katie's skills .

"Hahahah, you don't actually believe that do you?" he said while hysterically laughing .

Katie and Cindy didn't understand what he was trying to say, seeing the confused look on their faces Jeremy decided to elaborate . "Don't be so naïve, you don't actually think it's your business skills that got you here . " He pauses and walks towards a chair, "ok, I'm not saying your skills aren't good but you haven't been in any compet.i.tion or fas.h.i.+on shows so how do you expect people to know you?" Jeremy gives them a knowing look before grabbing a meal to eat .

"I don't understand what you mean; if it's not all our hard work then what is it?" Katie asks him not really sure what he means

"Wait, what exactly are you wearing? Are you a clown? Why are you wearing blue pants, a green s.h.i.+rt and an orange jacket?" the designer in Cindy couldn't overlook his outrageous dressing .

"What? You don't like it?" Jeremy says while feigning feeling hurt

"You look like an idiot"

"A devilishly handsome idiot" Jeremy says with a sly grin, "yeah key word being idiot" Jeremy and Cindy continue to bicker continuously completely forgetting about what they were discussing earlier .

"Guys, stop it can we get back to the main point . What do you mean, if it's not us then what?" Katie says feeling anxious

"Ok, it's like this . Ruby Xie has always been feared because people believe that she is definitely going to marry James . So when she attacked you two days ago clients started leaving you right? But then all of a sudden this huge scandal was exposed about her, even if the Xie family isn't the most powerful but with the relations.h.i.+p they have with the Ning's people see them as untouchable . So no one in their right mind would ever expose her except a Ning . "

"So… just get to the point" Katie anxiously hurries him up

"So, someone is standing up for you and that person is from the almighty Ning family . Which means Ruby is no longer important but you are . So everyone wants to patronize you and get in your good books . " Jeremy lazily explains .

"What? I don't want that to be the reason I grow . I want to this by myself . "

"It's not like you didn't know what those siblings (Catherine and James) where doing, they value you . You should be grateful . "

"Yeah Katie, if they didn't stand up for you we would probably go bankrupt, don't be sad about getting a little push" Cindy says as she gently nudges Katie .

"I guess you are right, we should be grateful" Katie reaches for her food as her mood lightens
