“You were still using me!”
Curtis angrily stood up.
“Don’t go!”
Catalina hugged Curtis.
“So what if I used you? Don’t you like me? As long as I can give you what you want, it’s a fair deal between us. What’s the big deal about using each other?”
“I wanted…”
Curtis turned to look at Catalina and snorted, “Can you give me what I really want?”
“Of course I can.”
Catalina promised firmly.
She went up to Curtis, grabbed his hand, and placed it on her chest.
Curtis was shocked, his face turning bright red, but he didn’t pull back his hand.
“Curtis, I already lost to Jennifer once at the Starlight Jewelry Design Competition before, this time I’m definitely going to win! As long as you’re willing to help me, there’s nothing we can’t achieve together…
At this point, Catalina let go of Curtis‘ hand again.
Curtis was clearly disappointed.

“Tonight is not possible… As long as you help me make Jennifer embarrassed at Treasure Jewelry Fashion Week, so that she has no place in the high–end jewelry industry, investors withdraw, the company goes bankrupt, I will naturally hand myself over to you…”
Catalina smirked and playfully flipped her hair.
“You didn’t lose in this deal, whether to do it or not… it’s up to you…”
With that, Catalina swiveled her hips towards the door of the guest room, wanting to open it and let Curtis leave.
At that moment, she heard Curtis‘ hesitant voice from behind.
“Jennifer, she… changed the topic at the last minute…”
“What?”
Catalina turned around.
Curtis’s face showed obvious hesitation and guilt of betrayal, but his eyes were sincere, speaking nothing but the truth.
“They actually changed the theme last minute…and there’s not much time left!”
Catalina frowned in disbelief, and Curtis continued,
“So, you know… the fashion icon Miranda came to Jennifer’s studio before, and Jennifer made a butterfly ring for her…”
“Butterflies…
Catalina touched her chin, couldn’t help but chew on those two words.
“Yeah,” Curtis nodded, “Breaking out of the cocoon was originally the theme Jennifer was going to showcase at Treasure Jewelry Fashion

Week…”
Catalina’s eyes widened.
Did she really transform like a butterfly breaking out of its cocoon?
Her frown deepened.
Breaking out of the cocoon is a metaphor for rebirth, it hits harder than her first love four–leaf clover.
Seeing Catalina lost in thought, Curtis took a step forward and approached her.
“Maybe because the theme was already taken, plus Miranda said Jennifer’s butterfly design idea was too cliche, so Jennifer decided to change the theme last minute…”
Catalina looked up and stared at Curtis who was right in front of her.
Breaking out of the cocoon and turning into a butterfly was already a very rare idea in her opinion.
Miranda actually said it’s “common as dirt“?
No wonder she was talking big at the exhibition she held yesterday.
Catalina didn’t want to fall behind Jennifer in networking, so she asked Brayan to introduce her to Miranda.
She had planned a private jewelry design exhibition with great effort, hoping to impress Miranda, but Miranda was very disrespectful, directly calling her designs “garbage” and making her unable to face the public.
Luckily, Brayan comforted her and didn’t shake her excellent image in Brayan’s mind.

If it weren’t for this, she wouldn’t have resorted to such a low tactic of trying to seduce Curtis to get information from Jennifer.
Because Devan said Miranda really admires Jennifer, she had to be prepared in advance, otherwise she would definitely be outshone by Jennifer at Treasure Jewelry Fashion Week.
