Chapter 273 Improvement In Designing

Just as Frank left, Zele’s expression darkened. “Christina, what was that? Mr. Emerson only invited you because he saw your value. Learn to be grateful.”

The corner of Christina’s lips twitched. She could truly care less about the invitation.

The ugly man earlier clearly has ill intentions. Why would he be so nice to a woman he doesn’t even know? Clearly, he wants something in return! After all, there is no free lunch in this world

“Just think of me as ungrateful then,” Christina replied with a shrug, unfazed.

Upon hearing that, Zele hissed angrily. “Do you know how good are the sales of VIS magazines? Do you know how much fame you’ll get by being on an edition of VIS? This is an opportunity that many designers dream of but can’t get, and yet, you don’t want it?”

Those words made Christina ill at ease, and she said, “Why don’t you give Margaret this chance instead? It seems like she needs this opportunity more than me.”

Christina did not want to gain an opportunity via means like these. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

Zele froze. Christina was barely known in the design industry despite working in it for such a long time. Moreover, she did not manage to capture the attention of a large crowd in the previous competition. Logically speaking, if she wanted more people to know about her, then she should be holding onto this golden opportunity

In the end, Zele scoffed and said, “Christina, you won’t be getting opportunities this good all the time. 1 hope you’ll think long and hard about this before giving me your final answer.

With that said, Zele walked off alone.

You… don’t actually need to wait for my answer. I can give it to you now, and it’s a no.

Ultimately, Christina shrugged and left the event.

A ray of orange spread across the morning sky. Christina stretched when she woke, but she was in no rush to get out of bed. Instead, she began using her phone.

The first thing she saw when she logged onto her fashion application was Margaret.

However, they were not talking about her work this time; they were gossiping about her.

As it turned out, a reporter had captured photographs of her at a lavish cocktail party for wealthy businessmen, cozying up to some influential heirs.

Christina proceeded to check a few more posts before exiting the application, finding the news boring. Noticing that it was still early, she got out of bed and went downstairs to her kitchen in her pajamas.

It was almost time for breakfast when Nathaniel came back from the company, and he headed straight for the room upstairs.

After taking a shower, he changed into his pajamas, only to realize belatedly that the bed was empty just as he was about to wake Christina.

She’s out this early?

Still, Nathaniel did not dwell on it. He changed into a suit before going downstairs.

Right then, the sound of footsteps traveled into his cars, and a slender figure came out with a plate of sausages. In the next moment, the woman turned back into the kitchen before re–emerging with a bowl of oatmeal.

Christina had dedicated her entire morning to working in the kitchen. Her silky hair was neatly tied in a low ponytail, with a few stray strands delicately grazing her neck. When the light illuminated her, her skin. appeared to radiate a gentle glow

The cartoon–themed pajamas she had on exuded a touch of coziness and familiarity.

Raising her head, her watery eyes met Nathaniel’s gaze, and she implored, “Come and join me for breakfast.”

She then passed him a bowl with her slender hand. “I made a fruit cocktail too. Give me a second.”

As Nathaniel stared at the piping hot breakfast on the table, he found his heart melting in bliss.

Soon, the two of them were having breakfast together. When Christina bit into the sausage, she beamed, satisfied with the sauce she added.

“Where were you last night?” Nathaniel asked.

A wave of guilt hit Christina when she heard his question. “I was at a show with Ms. Zele”

She easily excluded the upsetting encounter the day before. It was not as if she planned to meet Zele again.

The thrill of the show the night before had yet to fade away, so after taking two more bites of the sausage. Christina continued, “It’s Romina’s show. You might not know about her since you don’t pay attention to the design scene, but she’s a big cheese in the industry.”

The upsetting moment was worthwhile since I had the opportunity to witness Romina’s captivating show.

Nathaniel stiffened for a second before lifting his head to face her. “You can do the same in the future” His determined gaze warmed Christina’s heart, and a smile bloomed on her lips. “I’ll do my best.”

Every day, Rayne would arrive earlier than Christina at the studio to tidy up the place for her.

On that day, Christina was going to design a dress for Linda. Once she was done with the design drawing, she sent it to Linda.

All the other woman replied was: Just let my son decide this for me.

Christina was bewildered, for Linda was usually meticulous about her dresses.

At that very moment, a tall figure emerged at the doorway. The man was wearing a mask and a baseball cap, but anyone could see the shine in his eyes. Despite being clad in casual sportswear, the man retained his charming allure.

When Rayne saw the man, she enthusiastically welcomed him in. “Mister, are you here to order a sui The designer we have here is excellent.”

“Yes, I’d like to make five orders, Francis said as he took off his mask to smile at Rayne,

Rayne’s eyes widened into saucers.

I–Isn’t this man Francis Fernando the celebrity? There’s no way I’d mistake someone else for him. I’ve seen his face plastered everywhere!

“Francis Fernando?” Rayne shrieked once she came back to her senses.

There was no way Rayne was going to calm down any time soon.

Francis was accustomed to responses similar to hers. Hence, he shifted his attention toward the window, where he could catch sight of Christina’s silhouette through the glass.

Christina was wearing a light–colored dress, and despite the dress‘ thick material, she still seemed slender. Walking into the tailor room, he put a cup of coffee on her table and teased, “The early bird gets a cup of coffee.”

Christina chuckled. “What are you talking about?”

Nevertheless, she took the cup without hesitation as she showed him the design drawing on her tablet..

“This is a dress for Ms. Macall She said it’s up to you to finalize the design, so is there anything you want to change?”

Francis took the tablet and carefully studied the design. “Your designs have improved. I think adding a few more tassels with pendants will make this dress look even better.”

With that said, he started drawing crystal pendants on the drawing.

Designers disliked others altering their designs, but Christina was not irked by his action. As a matter of fact, she was fascinated by the drawing when he was done.

“I never thought that you’d be good at designing. All right. I’ll make the dress the way you want it.”

Enhanced by the tassels with crystal pendants adorning the waist, the wearer of the dress would exude an even more ethereal aura

With Linda’s well–maintained figure, a dress in this style would undoubtedly complement her beautifully.
