Chapter 111 How Do You Feel?
When Kassidy Schneider arrived at the venue, she was almost overwhelmed by the grandeur.
She never expected Joyful Jewelry’s event to be so extravagant.
A collaboration press conference held in the banquet hall of the country’s only seven–star hotel, with every detail meticulously designed to highlight the unique charm of Joyful Jewelry’s pieces.
Even as the young lady of the Schneider family, she had never seen such a spectacle.
However, Kassidy suppressed her inner excitement and maintained an air of composed elegance.
By the time Rhys Carter arrived, Kassidy had already changed and had her makeup done to perfection, enhancing her beauty to the fullest.
Kassidy gave Rhys a seductive smile, showcasing her flawless appearance.
Rhys looked her over and complimented, “Miss Schneider, you look stunning.”
Kassidy’s smile grew more enchanting, her eyes sparkling with charm.
“Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Carter,” Kassidy said.
“Make sure to perform well and let everyone get to know you,” Rhys said.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Carter, I won’t disappoint you,” Kassidy replied with confidence.
Rhys smiled and said no more.
As the press conference was about to begin, Kassidy, accompanied by Kaitlyn Willis, walked over.
She was wearing a sky–blue gown adorned with diamonds.
Despite the dress being heavy, Kassidy loved it.

The jewelry she wore was the centerpiece of Joyful Jewelry’s new season, each piece – dazzling and highlighting her as a queen.
Kassidy stood under the lights, basking in the flashes of cameras.
She believed she was the most dazzling woman in the world at that moment.
After completing the first part of the event, the question–and–answer session began.
The initial questions were directed at Rhys, “Mr. Carter, why did Joyful Jewelry choose an actress with little fame as a spokesperson? This doesn’t seem to align with Joyful Jewelry’s usual style.“-
This question clearly targeted Kassidy.
Everyone knew she was from the Schneider family, but the question seemed to disregard her completely.
If she weren’t concerned about her image, Kassidy would have lost her temper right then.
She maintained a perfect smile, but couldn’t hide the anger in her eyes.
Kassidy’s gaze lingered on the journalist who asked the question, eager to know which media outlet had the audacity to say such things.
Rhys cleared his throat and said, “At Joyful Jewelry, we never select partners based on their status. We only care about whether they align with our brand. Miss Schneider’s image perfectly matches our new season’s products. We believe she’s the best choice.”
His words eased Kassidy’s anger a bit.
After all, no matter what, she was the one standing there, and no one else deserved that spot.
However, Kassidy missed the underlying message in Rhys’s words, subtly admitting her lack of status.
“Mr. Carter, what specifically impressed you about Miss Schneider? It’s said you have a good personal relationship,” someone asked.

Rhys, unbothered by the suggestive question, smiled and replied, “Joyful Jewelry always separates personal and professional matters. There’s no favoritism involved.”
Yet, the more he said, the more people couldn’t help but speculate.
His response subtly confirmed Kassidy’s close relationship with him.
This implied that, despite the grand words, their collaboration might very well be due to Kassidy’s personal connections.
The audience’s expressions showed they were eager for drama, finding such scenarios quite familiar.
Kassidy was still reveling in Rhys’s earlier praise, pleased by his words.
She hadn’t listened closely to Rhys’s responses, firmly believing he was interested in her and would always defend her.
Next came a series of questions directed at Kassidy.
“Miss Schneider, how do you feel about becoming Joyful Jewelry’s spokesperson?”
“I’ve always loved Joyful Jewelry. I’ve always hoped to collaborate with them. Now that I have this opportunity, I feel very fortunate and grateful. This is Joyful Jewelry’s recognition and reward for me. I hope to make Joyful Jewelry proud,” Kassidy replied.
She spoke smoothly, delivering her rehearsed lines perfectly.
Kassidy was lost in her self–satisfaction, not considering anything else.
She didn’t notice the audience’s unfriendly expressions after hearing her words.
The press conference ended quickly.
In the dressing room, Kassidy excitedly told Kaitlyn, “Kaitlyn, I need to post on Instagram. Everyone needs to see how beautiful I am!”
Kaitlyn, equally thrilled about the Joyful Jewelry collaboration, took out her phone to snap some photos of Kassidy.
“Come on, Kassidy, I’ll take some pictures for you to post on Instagram.”
Although the press conference was over, it hadn’t been live–streamed online.

Rhys had stipulated that all news and videos from the event had to be reviewed by Joyful Jewelry before being released.
So, even though the press conference was over the public wasn’t yet aware of it.
Kassidy was waiting for Rhys to notify them to repost Joyful Jewelry’s Instagram post.
Kassidy found the procedure odd but didn’t object since Rhys had suggested it.
With the contract signed, they were in a mutually beneficial relationship.
Joyful Jewelry wouldn’t sabotage her.
After taking several photos, Kassidy sat on the sofa, waiting
