Abigail pov contd.


    The whole group looked at me as if I had suddenly grown another head. It took them a few minutes toe out of their initial shock.


    When Amayra was the first one to speak, "why would we do that? Since it is our store, we would only advertise ourselves. I think there is nothing much left to discuss now. It is either you are selling the design or you are not." she asked with a tone that was telling there was no ce for further discussion.


    "Well, it is still in your benefit. You will have exclusive partners to sell all the designs. So, the customer would onlye to your store. It is just that I want the whole empire to know that Isabe and Oliver are behind the designs. And i want 70% of the profit since we are the one who was doing all the efforts.'''' I replied with confidence and they both looked at each other in confusion.


    It was visible that they were not expecting this to happen. For them we both were kids, who have no knowledge of business. And we should listen to whatever they say.


    But they didn''t know that I had wasted all my life in learning everything that Gerard was good at! I would not be this easy to handle.


    "Well your conditions are too harsh to ept!" They replied, shaking their heads but they remained seated even when I told them that I had called other jewelers.


    "Well, Abi, maybe we can consider it a bit." said Isabe, pulling my sleeves. She was looking anxious. But I just shook my head.


    "As I have said, I have asked her jewelers too. I gave the first opportunity to you because I am proud of the way both of you work hard and try to make your own identity as a noble woman. There are very few in the more who do that. But if you do not agree, then i apologize to say, i would have to chose others.'''' I took my cup of tea from the table and started sipping itzily after finishing the conversation nonchntly.


    They knew it was the end of the discussion from my side.


    "We need to discuss it first," they announced and I nodded.


    "I want you to assign another private room to thedies.'''' I said to the girl who was standing there the whole time to serve us. Nick had personally asked all the staff to take special care of us.


    She bowed her head and indeed as she signaled them to walk behind her. Soon they both left the room.


    "Abi, are you sure this would work? Your conditions were too harsh!" said Isabe while Oliver just looked at me as if trying to be assured.


    Once he observed that I was still confident. Heid therezily again making me amused. Since when had he started having so much trust in my judgement!?


    "You have to trust me Be. If we let them use their name then there is no way we would be able to make you famous and get your father''s store back. So you just make designs. Leave other decisions to me.`` I assured her, she bit her lips but nodded.


    "Now that we are here, why don''t we eat something. The snacks are delicious." I exaggerated my expressions and started having the meal.


    They both followed me, and soon the silence ensued. How much time had passed, when they finally came back after their discussion.''


    "Well we have discussed itpletely and we have reached to a conclusion that we will ept your terms but you have to promise us that we will be the only ones selling these jewels for a lifetime. No one else, even you would not sell these jewels by yourself" well i must say they were better than my expectations but Isabe looked at me with worried eyes.


    Of course, she wanted to open her store and sell her own jewels after a period of time. That was the sole reason she was doing so much hard work.


    "Well, I agree. But do remember I am promising you all the jewels under the rose collection. It had nothing to do with other collections." i cleared and they both frown


    "What do you mean by another collection, Lady Abigail? Are you expecting us to sell a single design all our lifetime?" they asked as Amayra sounded fiercer than Sharron, but she agreed to Amayra too.


    "Of course notdies. I promise there will be new jewels avable to you each month. Even when the old design ispletely sold, you will have another collection ready.


    But our designs are known by the name of collections. It is a rose collection that we have sold to you. We will also have a spring collection and much more in the future." I replied and they finally got my point.


    "What if you want to buy them too?" asked Amayra when Sharron held her hand.


    "I think we should start with one design to see its sess rate?" asked Sharron. Amayra looked reluctant but nodded in the end.


    "Since the discussion is over. Shall we have lunch together?" I asked as I pointed to the server again who nodded and started serving lunch.


    I ate heartily as the first step was achievedpletely when both Isabe and Oliver looked at my te and then at me with surprise.


    "What is it?" I asked and they both shook their heads and started eating but I could still feel amazement in their eyes.


    ''What shall I tell them?! I have missed this rich taste for a lifetime and I have returned as a gourmand. I just could not let the delicious food go even if I have stomach painter.'' I shook my head and took one more bite of the eir that was filled with cheese cream.


    "By the way? If he is the designer, how do you know that there is a spring collection and many more collections are going toe?"
