Chapter 639: A Changed Person
If Isabella had cast her vote for Caroline at that time…
“I had high hopes for you back then, even though your designs had many flaws. I still voted for you,” Isabella said.
It was at that moment that Susie suddenly remembered there had been a judge who had cast the crucial vote for her. That judge had been young, beautiful, and charming. She had seemed to be… Sofia Welch, the founder of QY!
With this thought in mind, Susie suddenly looked at Isabella. Without careful observation, she hadn’t noticed before, but the girl in front of her with an outstanding and cold temperament seemed to be the judge-Sofia Welch-who had voted for her all those years ago!
“Sofia…” Susie’s face turned pale, unable to believe she had offended such an influential figure. It had been her own fault for not recognising Sofia’s identity immediately…
No wonder this person, who could transform the designs so stunningly in such a short time, had turned out to be Sofia Welch!
However, Isabella’s expression remained calm. “I’m telling you this not to seek any credit from you but to let you know that the designs you showed me today have disappointed me. According to your level last year, it shouldn’t have been like. this.”
Isabella had always cherished talent, and it had truly
saddened her when she saw someone she had once believed
in regress.
Hearing Isabella’s words, Susie’s face turned red and pale again, feeling incredibly embarrassed.
The Asian Design Competition from the previous year had three rounds, and each game had different judges, with each match being more competitive than the previous one.
Isabella appeared as the final judge in the third round. Although her appearance had lasted less than ten minutes, her appearance, temperament, status, and precise and incisive comments had left a deep impression on many
contestants.
At that time, Isabella hadn’t remembered Susie’s face but had had a strong impression of her name and work.
So when the people in the design department had called out Susie’s name, Isabella had remembered that there had been such a person.
Susie hurriedly said, “I’m sorry, Miss Welch. I’ve disappointed your expectations… It’s because…”
Before she could finish her sentence, tears started flowing down her face.
When she won the third prize in the competition, many companies contacted her with job offers. She had signed up with a company that had offered a lucrative salary, but it had been a company with many problems. It had been
investigated for illegal activities within less than half a year. She hadn’t received a single penny and had faced
considerable compensation and malicious accusations.

Finally, he lefted her when she found a sympathetic male designer willing to get close to her and provide warmth. Eventually, he engaged another wealthy heiress because his family disapproved of their relationship. It had deeply hurt
her..
Later, her family had been involved in a car accident, with one dead and one injured. It had taken her a long time to recover from the grief.
The once proud and talented woman had suddenly fallen from the heavens to the depths of despair…
Isabella had listened to Susie’s tearful recounting of her past and had comforted her, saying, “You’ve had many setbacks in the past, and the journey has undoubtedly been difficult. But no one’s life is smooth sailing, whether it’s you, me, or Boss Mason.”
Upon hearing this, Susie’s tears started flowing once again. Isabella looked at her gently and said, “You’ve made it to the Mason family based on your abilities, which means fate hasn’t completely abandoned you. You once shone brightly on the stage, and I believe you can do it again. I’m sure you will show your excellence once more. Keep going.”
Susie, touched by Isabella’s words, had let her tears flow freely again. Isabella had patted her shoulder and left with Benjamin.
The people in the design department had whispered to each other.
“Oh my, what did Mrs Mason say to Susie? She’s crying like that. Shouldn’t we go and comfort her?”
“We shouldn’t get involved in Mrs Mason’s affairs. Let her deal with it herself. After all, she was arrogant in front of Mrs. Mason. She’s probably going to be fired by the company”
“It’s.good if she gets fired. She was always an outcast, and her presence in our department created a depressing
atmosphere.”
“Yeah, we could only make progress once she was gone. With her being a design genius, she always overshadowed us.”
Susie had cried in the corridor for quite some time before wiping away her tears and mustering up the courage to return to the design department. When everyone saw her, they scattered and returned to their workstations.
“Next time Mrs Mason comes, count me in for treating her,” Susie suddenly said, shocking everyone, and they all turned to
look at her.
“I used to be arrogant, thinking that winning a few big awards made me superior. I caused trouble for all of you with my arrogant attitude. I’m sorry,” Susie suddenly bowed and apologised. “From now on, if there are any design problems, we can discuss them together.”
Everyone’s mouths dropped open wide enough to fit an egg… Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
What had happened to this “proud and arrogant girl”? Why had she suddenly changed her attitude…
What had Mrs Mason said to her exactly…
On the other side.
Benjamin held Isabella’s hand as they headed to the finance department for a visit. Along the way, Isabella suddenly said to Benjamin, “Don’t fire Susie. Give her a chance to change and improve.”
Benjamin was somewhat surprised by her words. “She used design drafts to make things difficult for you, arrogant and dismissive, with ill intentions.”
“Just a friendly competition,” Isabella shrugged it off. If she hadn’t valued talent, she wouldn’t have brought up last year’s Asian Design Competition. Given Susie’s capabilities, her designs this year shouldn’t have been so disappointing…
“Did you feel mistreated while I was away?” Benjamin asked the girl beside him.
“No, didn’t you see? Everyone likes me,” she replied.
Even Susie, who had initially been arrogant, apologised to
her…
After contemplating, Benjamin finally said, “Alright, I’ll listen. to you this time. I hope she won’t let you down. But with your guidance, the new designs of the Mason family will surely have high sales this quarter. How could I thank you. properly…”
Benjamin’s hand gently caressed Isabella’s face, and his lips. were about to touch hers.
At that moment, the elevator doors opened with a “ding,” and the Finance Department Minister was about to enter. Seeing Boss Mason touching a girl’s face as if he was about to kiss her, his tone seductive and his gaze affectionate…
The Finance Department Minister was instantly startled, hurriedly rubbing his eyes, not believing what he saw.
“Boss Mason…” the Finance Department Minister hurriedly greeted, “I was just about to find you… This is the financial report for the week…”
Oh my, who could tell him what was going on? How could Boss Mason be so intimate with a girl in the elevator as if no one was around!
“Don’t you say hello when you see someone?” Benjamin’s gaze fell on him. “Call her Mrs Mason.”
The Finance Department Minister quickly covered his heart, shocked for a while before realising it, and then stammered, “Mrs Mason, y-you, hello… welcome to the Finance Department… let me show you around.”
