Chapter 283

That’s a whole lot of cash, and for a small studio to get noticed by so many industry heavyweights, it’s definitely something worth bragging about.”

“Thank you all so much for your support, but I’m not sure I can take on too many orders recently, I’ll sort out all the orders within the next three days and reach out to you,” Serena said.

She might look gentle, but when she spoke, her words were clear and organized. There was just something about her that made people trust her.

“No problem, Serena. You’re amazing at what you do. We can definitely wait,” said Brent.

Serena couldn’t tell if the others were truly interested in placing orders, but Brent genuinely seemed to like her work.

Seeing him be the first to speak up for her, there was a hint of gratitude in Serena’s eyes.

After getting to see the designer she’d been hoping to see and scoring so many new orders, Serena really felt like she’d hit the jackpot tonight. On the way back, she couldn’t stop the smile on her face.

Seeing her like that, Keith deliberately acted a little jealous.

“Now that you’ve got work, you’ve forgotten all about your boyfriend? Serena, aren’t you taking your job a bit too seriously?” Keith teased.

When he complained, Serena was still busy checking the appointment schedule and sorting through information on her phone. Feeling a bit guilty, she cleared her throat and finally looked up at him.

“Work needs to be handled right away, but my boyfriend is always here for me,” Serena replied.

Her gentle voice soothed Keith right to his core, making him feel instantly comforted.

“Hey, I feel like you’re not playing fair,” Keith said with a helpless smile.

He’d never imagined that one day, he’d be so completely at a woman’s mercy, totally unable to resist her.

Just then, Serena’s phone suddenly chimed with a new message.

‘It’s already pretty late after the dinner party. Who could be texting her at this hour?‘ Keith couldn’t help but wonder.

Keith shot her a sideways glance, curiosity written all over his face. Serena didn’t try to hide anything. She just looked a bit surprised and spoke up right

away.

“It’s Craig. He wants to meet up with me, and he’s even offering to pay me for my time. He said since I rejected his offer for a trip, maybe talking with me a few more times will spark some new ideas,” Serena explained.

Serena had already turned Craig down once before. Now, Craig just asked for a simple meeting and wouldn’t take much time. If she refused again, it would probably look like she was being difficult.

“If you want to go, then go ahead. Don’t worry about what I think. Just be careful,” Keith said.

He could tell Serena was torn up inside, and he knew he was a big part of the reason. Wanting to put her at ease, he offered her some reassurance.

“Keith, thank you,” Serena said.

Seeing how he could read her mind before she even said anything and had already solved all her worries, Serena felt her heart grow warm.

After thinking for a moment, she spoke up, “How about this? I’ll bring Lana with me. That way, nothing bad should happen.”
