Contracted Bride Is Trapped By Her Husband - Chapter 123

Chapter 123 Ass Kisser

By the lunch break, Jocelyn and Emily finally finished their work.

The two of them had been standing for the entire morning and felt that their legs no longer belonged to them.

“Is there anything you want to eat? I want to buy a hamburger and a cup of coffee. Do you need me to bring you anything?” Jocelyn massaged her legs and looked at Emily. Although Emily didn’t blame her for what happened this morning, Jocelyn still took it to heart. She wanted to invite Emily for lunch to make it up to her.

Emily, who had been busy the entire morning, really did not want to go out and buy a meal. She thought for a moment and said, “Then can you bring me a glass of orange juice and a bacon sandwich?”

Jocelyn nodded at Emily and left the studio during her lunch break.

As soon as Jocelyn left, Carina, who had been watching them, appeared in front of Emily.

At this moment, Emily was sitting on the sofa, gently massaging her stiff calf. Carina handed the chocolate she brought from home to Emily. “You’ve been working the entire morning. Eat some sweets to energize yourself.”

Emily, who had not had much breakfast that morning, was indeed hungry, so she did not decline Carina’s offer. She took the chocolate from her and stuffed it into her mouth.

“Thank you,” Emily said, her mouth stuffed with chocolate.

“You’re welcome. We’re colleagues.” After saying that, she paused for a moment. Seeing that Emily did not take the initiative to talk to her, she continued, “You and Jocelyn seem to be very close. Do the two of you usually have gatherings in private?” “I saw on the Internet that Jocelyn is already engaged to Aren. The two of you are so close. Has she taken you to see Aren? Or do you know how long they’ve been in a relationship?”

Carina was very straightforward, which made Emily want to spit out the chocolate she had just stuffed into her mouth and return it to her.

It was just a piece of chocolate, and Carina wanted to ask so many questions about Jocelyn. What did she think she was giving her? Gold?

Emily couldn’t help but turn her head and roll her eyes hard where Carina couldn’t see her.

“I’m sorry, Carina, but your question is too private. Without Jocelyn’s permission, I won’t discuss her private matters with you.”

Emily waved her hand. She thought that Carina would leave voluntarily after getting snubbed, but instead of leaving, she shifted her butt to pull their distance closer.

“Well, since you don’t want to talk about Jocelyn, let’s talk about something else.”

Emily didn’t expect Carina to give in so easily this time.

As long as she didn’t talk about Jocelyn’s privacy, Emily relaxed a lot, but she still remained vigilant. “Actually, in our studio, I think your design is the best and outstanding. In the New York Design Competition in July this year, I think you will probably win an award.”

Carina was generous with her praise, and her enthusiastic praise made Emily blush.

Her face became as red as an apple.

“Am I really as good as you say? Do you really think I can get an award?”

The New York Design Competition in July was a grand event that all designers would participate in. As long as she got a place in the competition, she wouldn’t have to worry about work anymore.

She would be sought after by various studios. If she was lucky enough to win an award, she could even start her own fashion brand and even become the chief designer of a famous brand.

Emily had dreamed of that scene countless times.

However, she had never been very confident before, so she had never participated. This year was her third year in the design business and she was finally mentally prepared.

Emily had a feeling that this year would be the closest she would get to winning an award. If she did not attend this year, she might not get the chance to win again.

What Carina said just now emboldened her greatly. “Of course, why would I lie to you about that? We’ve worked together for so long. I know how talented you are. I think you have a lot of hope.”
