Chapter 20 She Saved Me
Finished
“Miss Woodword, I’m here to customize jewelry for my mother’s birthday next month, and I was thinking of ordering a set of jewelry for her. Milan wasn’t in need of money, and he wanted more excitement, so he didn’t mind forking money out for Samantha..
Samantha naturally wouldn’t reject a business opportunity given to her, so she instructed, “Dawn, please get us coffee and a fruit platter.”
After Dawn left. John’s gaze quickly landed on Samantha again.
“President Hughes, Megan I know if your mother has any particular interest in the shape or color of the jewelry? Does she prefer jade or crystal other than a diamond?”
“Diamonds will do. It’s better if it’s bigger and more expensive,” Milan answered in a straightforward manner while Samantha pursed her lips and smiled. “Sure. I’ll come up with a draft for your design and send it over to your mother’s house three days later. What do you think about that?”
“Since this is a present from me for my mother, it’s better to keep things secretive. Why don’t you come to me after you’re done with the draft?” A cunning look flashed past John’s eyes while Samantha was checking a document with her head lowered. “Sure, President Hughes. I’ll contact you once I’m done.”
Sure. I’m fine with that. Are you free later at noon? Why don’t we go have lunch together?”
Nevertheless, Samantha wasn’t a fool and knew that Milan was trying to hit on her. Still, there was no way that she’d reject a business opportunity, so she nodded and uttered, “Sure. I know a nice restaurant just in front of my company. I shall make a reservation for two
Milan nodded in satisfaction. “Miss Woodword, I’ll be waiting for your break, then!”
“Why don’t you wait in the lounge? It’s much quieter there.” Samantha gave sending him off.

After dealing with John, she made a report to Rose while Rose made sure to tell Samantha to secure the deal with John, seeing how they’d profit a lot from the set of jewelry.
When Samantha went to get lunch with Milan during the afternoon, Milan took the opportunity to brag about his finance and assets as well as his company, while Samantha acted as if she was shocked and awed.
After the meal, she made an excuse, saying that she had a meeting and wanted to leave, cutting Milan short and leaving him with no choice but to send her back to Navette.
When Samantha went back, she sighed in relief before returning to her office to continue working.
On the other hand, Joseph took his phone and contacted someone in his president’s office.
“Hey, Joseph Why are you contacting me?” A man’s chirpy voice rang out.
Do you know Samantha Woodword?” Joseph went straight to the point.
“How do you know?” Orion asked in a’surprised manner.
“She’s an employee at my company. I ran into her yesterday at the jewelry exhibition and noticed that she came in using your name.”

“Oh! Looks like you’ve really acquired Filigree Jewelry Group! Anyway, it’s true that Samantha and I are close friends with each other.” Orion admitted truthfully before he chuckled and asked, “How was she? She’s really pretty, isn’t she?”
“Are you trying to pursue her?”
“She’s not an easy one to pursue, though. I’ve been trying to go after her for three years already, but I still haven’t succeeded, so I can only remain as her close friend!” Orion answered helplessly.
Despite that, Joseph’s facial expression was still dark. “How did you get to know her?”
“Remember the accident when my car flipped three years ago? She was the person who saved me. If she hadn’t dragged me out of my car, I would have died along with the car explosion.”
Of course. Joseph could still remember the terrifying car accident that Orion had back then. Orion had brushed path with the grim reaper briefly as the car that he was in exploded right after he left.
Nevertheless, Joseph didn’t expect Samantha to be the person that saved Orion back then. Is this fated? This would mean that the Xylons owe the Woodwords a favor.
Joseph, I’ll be returning soon. By that time, I’ll work at Navette as well so that I can accompany her.”
“Stop messing around. You’re coming back to inherit your–family’s business, not to pursue after girls,” Joseph reprimanded.

“Well, you’ll have to help me out to take care of her in the company, then.” Orion could only reply to him this way.
When Joseph placed his phone down, he had a conflicted look on his handsome face. Looks like Orion, Grandma’s favorite grandson, is pursuing Samantha too.
Three days later, Samantha’s draft was given the green light by Rose, and it was ready to be given to John.
“Good day, President Hughes. I’ve come out with a draft already. Megan I know when you’ll be free so that I can deliver them to you?” Samantha asked John..
“Hey! I’m sorry, but I’m still rushing back from my business trip right now, and I’ll only reach around. 7.00PM. What about this? Why don’t you send the draft over to my place around 8.00PM at night?”
“Um… At night?” Samantha immediately got alerted.
