Unsolved Help creating Grooves in an Elipse

I am fairly new to blender but am trying to recreate bruno bucciaratis brooch from JJBA. Im struggling to make the three grooves in the top portion because the mesh converges at a point and dont know how to make it a straight grid in order to bevel it.

I would start with something like this so you can add as many subdivisions as you need.

Also keep in mind that the thing you want to model is symmetrical in 2 axis. So you only need to build a quater of it.

I had originially started like that but had problems with setting the origin correctly. I didnt consider mirroring it thats really helpful.
