Chapter 171: Chapter 170 Bracelet Controversy

Ivy River sneered, "It’s not that I know you well, but most of the companies participating in this jewelry competition are mediocre. You don’t think I’d check your background just to design a bracelet for you, do you?"

The sarcasm in her words was undisguised.

Isla Sutton’s face turned pale, "No, that’s not what I mean. So, you don’t want to add this piece of jewelry, right?"

Recalling the numerous accessories on display at the counters, all of them were huge hits.

They were all out-of-stock kings.

In fact, advance deposits were often required just to purchase them.

This proves that Lynn’s idea was wrong; she doesn’t understand market users’ needs.

But since she was number one in the world, she couldn’t argue with her.

Ivy River watched her persist in her opinion.

She simply decided not to interfere any further.

She spoke lightly, "If you really like these little accessories, then just add them."

Leon Peterson was shocked and instinctively tried to stop her, "Boss! You need to think this through."

Ivy River waved him off, indicating he shouldn’t worry about it.

Isla Sutton immediately said, "You’re just an assistant. Don’t worry about the boss’s matters; just do your work well."

Leon Peterson glanced at her calmly, ignoring her.

"Um, Lynn, when can you give me the finished draft? I still need to study it when I get back. I think the small details are fine as is. Could you send me the initial draft so I can have a look at the specifics?"

Ivy River replied, "I can add the accessories, since we’re in a partnership. But let me be upfront: if I design according to your requirements and you don’t win, it’s got nothing to do with me."

"This..."

Isla Sutton was stunned; she couldn’t guarantee she’d win.

This isn’t ideal.

After all, hiring Lynn at such a high price was all about winning.

Ivy River worked decisively and efficiently, "Because I’m drawing based on your ideas, not my own. All the structural elements are provided by you."

"So, whether or not I win has nothing to do with you?"

Isla Sutton asked.

Ivy River nodded, "That’s right, I’m just the designer. You didn’t ask me to win awards for you, but if you look at it from my perspective, I’d definitely not add these accessories, and go for a grand and simple design instead."

"Aren’t your designs known as the best? Why can’t you guarantee it now!"

Isla Sutton was somewhat frustrated, loudly questioning.

"None of that matters now; the main thing is whether you want to add these accessories or not. If you do, sure, I’ll add them right away, no problem."

Ivy River was all business, acting just like a tool.

"I fully respect all your wishes. Sorry, I have other things to attend to. If anything comes up, you can contact my assistant."

With that, Ivy River ceased speaking.

Isla Sutton was taken aback, "Lynn? Lynn! What are you doing! This is irresponsible to me."

Leon Peterson spoke with patience, "Miss Sutton, you can tell me all the elements you want, or you can send them to me via WeChat."

Isla Sutton said with a hint of anger, "You guys are so irresponsible. I came to you for a winning design, and now you tell me there’s no guarantee? Do you believe I’ll expose you?"

"Feel free, as long as you’re not embarrassed by it later," Leon Peterson didn’t coddle her at all.

Isla Sutton calmed down.

Outsourcing a design draft to another designer is inherently unfair to the designer.

Once exposed, the losses would be hers alone.

"Let me have another look at the initial draft so I can check the details."

Leon Peterson didn’t speak, handing over the design draft to Isla Sutton once again.

Lynn’s current design was indeed perfect.

Using her version would be fine.

But if...

She thought again about the recent trending styles, resolutely sticking to her opinion.

Isla Sutton said, "I’ll send you the elements I want added later. Can you create two versions for me to choose from?"

Leon Peterson rolled his eyes, you really consider your boss Edwin Blake, huh?

Thinking you can be indulged like that.

He answered dryly, "No, only detail refinement is possible. Once you decide on the addition, you’ll have to use your confirmed version."

Ivy River suddenly spoke up, "It’s possible."

"Boss!"

Leon Peterson was incredulous.

It’s known.

Since the name Lynn appeared, there has never been a case of reworking or reprocessing.

All customers, whether nobles or difficult individuals.

They’d seen Ivy River’s designs.

Never uttered a single no, all universally praised.

Yet Isla Sutton was picky.

How could she be given special treatment, are we dealing with a love-struck fool again!

Ivy River looked at his bewildered expression and shook her head at him.

Leon Peterson held back his fury, "Tell me what you need, anything else?"

Isla Sutton thought for a moment, "I want the initial draft; I need to see the details to make suggestions."

"Don’t push your luck."

Ivy River continued, "Give it to her. Remember, the customer is king."

Isla Sutton thought Ivy River had come around.

Instantly she was full of herself, "Did you hear that? Send me the initial version too!"

Leon Peterson reluctantly spoke, "Sent to your email now. We’ll fully accommodate your requests just because you’re a customer. If, when Lynn delivers the final version, you haven’t paid the balance, well, I’ll make sure the world knows."

Isla Sutton nodded, "Alright, I’ll look and get back to you."

Hearing her say this, Leon Peterson immediately hung up the call.

Then, with a face full of anger, he looked at Ivy River.

Ivy River was motionless, her expression indifferent, "Why are you mad at her? This initial version is just a clone of my previous one. Plus, didn’t you catch the hidden meaning in her words?"

"No!"

Ivy River chuckled, "Isla Sutton said she wanted to add elements, and later, even though I persuaded her, she still wouldn’t listen. So I’m not worried about her running away with the initial version."

"I don’t want to hear, I don’t want to hear!" Leon Peterson covered his ears and shook his head.

Ivy River continued, "Inform him of everything. The current design draft can undoubtedly win the championship, but if complicated elements are added, winning isn’t so certain."

"Really?" Leon Peterson uncovered his ears, his eyes full of spirit.

Ivy River nodded, "As far as I know, Orchid is also participating in this competition. And the judges this time have all studied abroad; they don’t particularly favor complexity."

Leon Peterson immediately understood Ivy River’s intention.

"Now you’ve reminded me, and no matter what, it won’t be pinned on you, Boss. The old ginger is always spicier; it has to be you!"

Ivy River retorted in an exasperated tone, "Do I look like someone who can be wronged? Since I agreed to this, I’ve definitely weighed the pros and cons."

Leon Peterson nodded vigorously.

"Okay, okay, anything else?"

Ivy River thought for a moment, "Sign me up too for the designer competition."
