Chapter 303
Rita was stunned, and she was only able to speak after a few seconds.
“Why me?”
“I think you have the potential. Didn’t you win third place in the design competition not long ago? I’ve seen your designs. Some of them may seem puerile, but they’re eye–opening.”
Rita seemed surprised. “Miss Pond, do you know about designing?”
“Yes. I learned it in the past, so I should know enough to guide you.”
When Rita heard this, suspicion filled her eyes. Even Ada, who had won first place, was not bold enough to guide her, but Silvia was so confident.
Rita looked down before she opened her phone and showed Silvia a design she had drawn.
“Miss Pond, please comment on my draft!”
Silvia took a look before she nonchalantly said, “Regarding the placement of the bow and the metal chain around the waist, one should be vertical and the other should be horizontal. They clearly don’t fit. Also, you could up the skirt’s hemline a few more centimeters. As for the color, a light color scheme would be better.”
Right after Silvia spoke, Rita’s face was full of shock.
Her mentor had pointed out the exact same problems. Silvia even gave her suggestions for the modifications!
This time, Rita truly believed that Silvia was skilled.
“Miss Pond, I’ve never been in charge of anything before, but I’ll do my best!”
“Okay. I’ll recruit an assistant and a few designers for you. All of you will be responsible for drawing the designs, and Dulcie will get several other colleagues to handle the rest.”
“Okay!”
Silvia did some work after Rita left. All of a sudden, she felt a throbbing pain in her stomach.
She looked at the date and found that she was on her period.
She took out a painkiller from her drawer and ate it before she continued reading through some documents.
However, her menstruation pain seemed more severe than usual. The painkiller was not helping, and her stomach was getting increasingly painful. It got to the point that she could no longer focus on her reading.
Silvia winced and persisted through the morning. Just as she was about to take a break at
Dulcie came to see her. Dulcie was taken aback.
пооп,
“Silvia, what’s wrong? Why is your face so pale?”
Silvia pressed her belly and winced in pain. “I’m on my period, but I don’t know why it hurts. so much this time.”
Seeing that she was in so much pain that her forehead was beaded with cold sweat, Dulcie

immediately said, “Let me send you to the hospital. I can’t leave you like this.”
“Okay.”
Silvia got up, and Dulcie helped her out of the office.
While they waited for the elevator, she suddenly felt dizzy and fell unconscious.
When she woke up again, she realized that she was on a drip, and her belly was warm, like there was a heating pad on it. Her stomach pain had also become a lot less intense.
“Are you awake? Does your stomach still hurt?”
Silvia turned around and looked at Neil in surprise. “Why are you here?”
“I called you, but Dulcie answered. I rushed over after I heard that you fainted.”
She pursed her lips when she saw the concern in his eyes. “You must have a lot of work in the company. Carry on with your work. I feel much better now. I’ll go back to the company once I’m done with the drip.”
Neil was not happy to hear this.
“You’re having such a severe stomach ache, yet you’re still planning on going back to work? I’ll send you back to the mansion after the drip. Just rest at home for today!”
Silvia raised her head. When she saw how stubborn he looked, she frowned in dissatisfaction. “No way. I have to go through a few contracts today. I have to finish this before tomorrow!”
