Chapter66
“The stone was handed to me, you can go.”
Julissa was puzzled.
“What’s wrong? Afraid I’ll cut the stone badly? Master is watching…”
“What are you pretending.”
Reece’s deep voice coldly interrupted Julissa’s words.
“Why do you think you have the ability to design this stone?”
This sudden question, filled with strong disdain, left Julissa feeling a bit confused.
“I… I just wanted to see what the stone looked like when it was cut…”
There was no mention of design.
“This stone has nothing to do with you.”
Reece’s forehead was stern, with an unquestionable majesty.
Julissa was a little annoyed.
“Are you out of your mind? This stone was protected by me at all costs, and now you’re telling me I can’t touch it? Why not? After all, I am also a shareholder of the Diaz Group!”
When it comes to shareholders, Reece is even more anno 1.
“Was the contract signed? Has the appointment letter come down? Shareholders of the Diaz Group? Julissa, who do you think you are?”

The sudden irony made Julissa’s steps feel a bit floaty.
“We got it, we got it!”
The first cut finally ended, and the stone was cut in half horizontally, lying quietly in the trough.
Both water and color were perfect existences.
What’s more, this stone didn’t even have a single crack on it!
Beautiful enough to make everyone amazed.
Such a stone, if paired with top–notch design, is priceless beyond words.
Julissa was excited to go back and take a look, but her wrist was suddenly grabbed by someone.
“I said, this stone has nothing to do with you.”
Reece’s voice was as cold as poisoned frost.
“I have decided to entrust Cristina with the design. From now on, stay away from this stone.”
Cristina…
So that’s how it was….
Julissa’s eyes went from anticipation to icy cold.
Was he so careful with her for Cristina’s future?
The cool fingertips ravaged Julissa’s wrist, causing her to frown in pain.
“Reece.”

“I think your brain has been damaged by soaking in water!”
With that, Julissa forcefully shook off Reece’s hand.
“I left, the stone is yours, do you think I really want to have any connection with the Diaz Group?”
Julissa said, and then she spat out a loud “pah“.
“This heartless boss, I’m not willing to stay any longer!”
Reece watched Julissa’s departing figure, looking somewhat dazed.
I thought she would fight hard, since she could be so desperate for fame and fortune, but now she doesn’t even say a word of begging for mercy?
With a heart full of doubt, Abram, who was in charge of cutting, walked up to Reece.
“Mr. Diaz, this Ms. Rivera is really amazing. She came early in the morning and started discussing the cutting position with a few of us craftsmen. The stone shell was too thick for the light to shine through, and we couldn’t make up our minds. Ms. Rivera was able to determine the cutting position from the stone’s texture, and the stones she cut out indeed retained the highest value.”
Abram couldn’t stop praising Julissa’s eyes. He had been doing surgery for half his life, and this was the first time he had seen someone so young and so talented.
Reece glanced sideways slightly, a hint of surprise in his cold eyes.
“Did she arrive in the morning?”
Abram nodded.

Chapter 66
“Before everyone started working, Ms. Rivera hurriedly urged us to get busy.”
Haven’t started yet?
Recce calculated the time.
In other words, Julissa didn’t bring the stone over because of his phone call at all.
But he had brought the stones early in the morning!
Thinking of this, Reece’s hand clenched involuntarily, and a surge of anger rose from the bottom of his heart.
It’s all Zayne’s trickery!
Reece came to his senses and, without hesitation, strode quickly towards the door.
Julissa was still standing at the intersection, the location here was remote, and the car she called was still three kilometers away.
Just waiting, I saw Reece across the street.
What a bad luck.
Julissa didn’t wait for the car anymore, she turned around and left.
But her speed couldn’t match Reece’s.
He was blocked by the tall figure of a man after a few steps.
Julissa impatiently looked up and said, “Mr. Diaz, is there anything else you want to scold me for?”
“Hurry up and finish scolding, don’t delay my meal.‘

Reece was at a loss for words when Julissa retorted like that.
“No words?”
Julissa had no patience at all.
“I’m leaving then.”
Reece didn’t move, he blocked in the direction Julissa walked.
“What do you want to do, Reece?!”
“It was Zayne’s trap,” Reece explained in a cold tone, “He made me misunderstand you.”
Julissa didn’t understand, but she just found it funny.
