See You Never, Mr. Lamont

Chapter 57

Chapter 57 She’s Talented “Whether it is or not, the Friedan family members will definitely have an attitude. Instead of speculating here, why don’t you go directly and ask Ervin?” Everett’s face turned red as he observed his cold demeanor. He had a good relationship with Ervin, but going to ask about this matter made him seem a bit nosy. And this is obviously a fake news, if he really went to ask, wouldn’t it make him appear intellectually challenged? He didn’t want to give Ervin a chance to mock him. “Let it go, this news is obviously fake. Your ex-wife wouldn’t have developed delusions from Rosalie’s anger, would she? Claiming to be Seraphina, it’s ridiculous that she could even think of that,” Everett pondered and gossiped. “Speaking of which, you even had a childhood, betrothal with Seraphina. Unfortunately, you didn’t even get to hold her in your arms before she was lost. “Hey, what if Seraphina really finds out? Will you still have to fulfill the engagement?” Everett’s words came out, and he quickly realized that the question sounded a bit silly. If Edmond hadn’t been married, it would have been fine, but the Friedan family might not have been willing to accept a man who has been married twice. Moreover, with Rosalie around, who would dare to offend the Clayton family? In fact, the Clayton family was not considered wealthy, but they had a father, Adron, who transformed after engaging in illegal activities. 0.00% 15:36 Dempsey had been involved in numerous killings without anyone daring to investigate. However, when people from other families heard about the Clayton family, they trembled in fear, indicating the influence of the Clayton family. It would be interesting if the Friedan family and the Clayton family fought. “Are you here today not to discuss cooperation, but specifically to gossip about my personal life?”

Edmond’s fingers twitched as his deep gaze stared intensely at him, becoming dark and menacing. Everett was startled and jumped to his feet, saying, “No, there isn’t. I just feel sorry for you.” “You said you had been taking care of Claudia for three years, secretly protecting her, and even gave her a position in the Design Department to play with. But in the end, she didn’t appreciate any of it. Look, as soon as she divorced you, she immediately got involved with the Friedan family.” In his opinion, this Claudia was no different from other women, just a gold digger and social butterfly. As Edmond looked at his friends’ comments about Claudia, he suddenly realized that the three years he spent with her were probably really unfair. At least all the negative evaluations about her from the outside originated from him. Edmond glanced at him indifferently and said, “She doesn’t owe me anything, and under her leadership, the Design Department has already qualified for the jewelry design competition.” Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

“What?” Everett exclaimed, “Is your Design Department so amazing?” Edmond lowered his eyes, and not only him, even himself, was somewhat surprised when he received this news. 15:37 140 Vouchers He looked at the profits of the company’s departments over the past few years. After Claudia came in, the Design Department achieved a break- even in the first year, and the profits for the following two years also ranked among the top in the company. He used to not pay attention to these things, and the people in the company didn’t specifically tell him either. Either she was low-key herself, or someone else took credit for her work. No matter which kind, she should feel quite aggrieved. Others thought that Claudia had been supported by him for the past three years, but in reality, she could live well solely based on her own abilities. She stayed at the Lamont Group, which was a waste of talent. Everett saw that Edmond was in a bad mood, and the words were on the tip of his tongue, but he

swallowed them hastily. No matter what, he didn’t think Claudia had the ability. How old is she? She is just a person who has recently graduated and hasn’t been out of school for many years. How could Claudia, that woman, manage to take a department that was on the verge of collapse to participate in a competition? It seems impossible no matter how you think about it. “Mr. Lamont, Ms. Clayton are here,” the assistant who had walked out knocked on the door, while Everett inside the room smirked playfully. “Oh hey, your rumored girlfriend has arrived!” Rosalie hurriedly walked in, her voice coquettish: “Edmond, I have an urgent matter to discuss with you…” When Rosalie saw Everett looking at her playfully, she immediately 37.60% 1537 closed her mouth. “What’s the matter?” Edmond’s voice was gentle, which made her feel comforted. Since Edmond agreed to marry me, he has been much gentler toward me. She stood there, cautiously glancing at Edmond, wondering how to bring up this matter. Everett saw her like this and originally wanted to leave, but he couldn’t resist his curiosity and eagerly waited for her to finish speaking. Seeing that Everett had no intention of going out, Rosalie also stopped caring and anxiously asked: “Edmond, does the Lamont Group have the tickets for the jewelry design competition?” She had already confirmed on the official website that only the Lamont Group was selected for the entire Wellfort. Edmond nodded. Rosalie’s eyes sparkled with excitement, “Edmond, let me join in.” The assistant glanced at her in horror and then looked at their own CEO.

Everett’s mouth formed an “O” shape. “Don’t worry, my jewelry designs have never won any major awards but have won some minor ones. I won’t embarrass you.” The assistant stood by awkwardly, listening. 56.66% 15.37 How dare Ms. Clayton make such a request when she wasn’t even an employee of the Lamont Group? Looking at Rosalie’s beautiful face and innocent appearance, the assistant’s mind conjured up a phrase: spoiled and arrogant. Edmond remained silent as Rosalie persisted, “Edmond, you should know that the Lamont Group doesn’t have any impressive designers. I can represent the Lamont Group in the competition.” “Who said the Lamont Group doesn’t have any talented designers?” a crisp and melodious voice interrupted her. Claudia stood outside the door, with her arms crossed, lazily walking over and said, “You are neither an employee of the Lamont Group’s design team nor someone of Edmond’s. It wouldn’t be appropriate for you to represent the Lamont Group in the competition.” The contempt on Claudia’s face couldn’t be hidden when she thought about Waldron bumping into her. This competition was won by her design, and Rosalie wanted to take away the ticket for no reason. She had to ask her if she agreed or not. Everett was surprised when he saw Claudia. He had seen her photo and didn’t expect her to be even more beautiful in person than in the picture. Such a stunning woman… He glanced at Edmond and wondered if he was intentionally hiding his mistress in the golden house. “Why can’t I replace the Lamont Group in the competition? I really like ur position,” Rosalie said with a double meaning, laughing nocently. She walked up to Edmond and coquettishly pleaded, “Edmond, let me participate.” 60 81%

Edmond frowned and glanced at Claudia. Claudia stood there with a smile, as if she couldn’t see him, except for her hatred toward Rosalic. Laughing and talking with Pedro, she treated him like an enemy whenever she saw him. What did he do to offend her? “How do you see it?” Edmond suddenly asked her, Claudia was taken aback. She really wanted to participate in this competition format, which only happens once every few years. This was also the first step for designers to step onto the international stage. In terms of design, she was not lacking money, but who doesn’t want to become more famous? No matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t say “I want to participate” in response to Edmond’s deep and probing gaze. It seems that the relationship between the two has become tense since that incident happened. “I have no opinion, you can arrange everything,” Claudia said, spreading her hands and smiling helplessly.
