Chapter 1177

Naomi stood there, taking deep breaths to relieve her tension.

Maisie turned her head and asked Kennedy, “What do you think?”

Kennedy rubbed his chin. “Incorporating carvings unique to the baroque design language into the jewelry
is a great idea.”

The first drawing was that of a necklace, which had the pattern of a flower that was carved from jade. Its
main body was made out of roses and lilies, and the middle was inlaid with other flowers and leaves of
different sizes. The core of the flower and the base of the petals were formed by arranging rounded
beads neatly. In order to make this design into a fine piece of jewelry, a necklace was indeed a very

suitable choice.

The second draft was a ring that had delicate carvings. The ring’s design was mainly based on the
fireworks that had gone off in the night sky. The curly patterns found carved on the slender
chrysanthemum petals looked clear, and the gemstones embedded in the stamens had to give off a
beautiful hue and look extremely pure and clear, so the decision to go with a citrine topaz was
impeccable as it would fully showcase the magnificence of this design.

Jewelry pieces that used chrysanthemums as the centerpiece of the design were rare, and the move to
compare the blooming of a chrysanthemum to the explosion of a firework was straight-up pure art.

And the last design was also a ring, but the design looked more subtle. It was inspired by the mythical
winged divine horse, Pegasus. The feathered wings that spread from the bottom of the ring went up
along both sides of the ring and protruded from the shoulders. The carvings of the feathers started from



the outside of the ring but did not stop going when they reached the inside. And lastly, an emerald would
be embedded in the prongs that extended from the wings, making the whole ring look elegant and regal.
Maisie looked at Naomi. “I knew that you ould definitely do it with your rare talent for classical jewelry.”

Kennedy laughed out loud too. “It only took a week. This is truly amazing.”

Naomi smiled and nodded. “Thank you.”

Maisie returned the artwork to her. “Send them to the CAD department and ask them to make a sample
drawing out of these drafts . I’ll then instruct them to adhere strictly to our instructions when it comes to
fulfilling the requirements of your designs. After all, these three pieces of jewelry are the main pieces that
Soul will release in the coming season. No mistakes will be allowed throughout the whole production
process, so I’ll personally supervise the process and assist from the side from time to time.”

Naomi nodded. “Okay.”

Kennedy smiled after Naomi went out. “It seems that the daughter of Mr. Topaz is indeed someone who
can endure hardships.



She might be able to manage things on her own when she gets the hang of how things work in the
industry.”

“I wouldn’t be too sure about that.” “Why so?” Kennedy wondered. Maisie supported her forehead in one
hand. Judging from how Naomi is reacting to things… It seems that she’s been trying to avoid social
interactions as much as possible. “What she’s facing might not be categorized as a serious psychological
issue. After all, nobody would even believe you if you were to go around the city, telling people that she’s
spent more than a decade in a hospital bed.



“However, she had been isolated from the world for more than ten years before reconnecting with reality
once again. Everything in this world has changed dramatically during that gap. Hence, it’ll take time for
her to adjust to this new world.

“Her adaptation to social interactions is especially important, as that’s something a jewelry designer can’t
avoid.

“But recently, rumors in the company have it that Naomi is a loner, and she has issues whenever it
comes to dealing with other people. Several staff members have tried to invite her to go to the movies
together, but she declined every single time.”

Kennedy pondered for a moment. “She’s been cut off from society for so long, so she may not know
much about the topics that her peers share. I guess she’s probably worried that she will make a
laughingstock out of herself.”

Maisie actually sensed it too.

‘Whenever I’m with Naomi, almost all the topics we talk about are related to jewelry design. Although
both of us had gone out together the other day, Naomi was very quiet throughout the whole journey. At
that moment, Naomi was devoting her full attention to carving the wax block under the guidance of the
craftsman from the CAD department. Because her designs were mostly handcrafted, although most of
their parts could be drawn out through the CAD software, the special pattern of the

carvings would still require manual work. The manual carvings would take at least one or two days. After
all, the stencil had to be perfectly clean and free of any marks and scratches. Not to mention that the size
of the carvings must be dead-one. Naomi would have to re-carve the whole thing from

scratch if she were to only make the slightest mistake in her career.



Maisie and Kennedy walked into the production room, stood outside the door, and watched Naomi as
she carved her design very seriously. The craftsmen were all very patient with her, probably because no
one would bear to reprimand someone of the younger generation who worked hard.
