Trevor immediately stood up from his chair and enlarged the picture multiple times. What was that? Was it a heart formed by two people holding hands? Was that a gift from someone? Could this be the main purpose of her post? Was she showing her love to someone? All sorts of strange thoughts cto Trevor's mind. He was unfamiliar with this feeling of having his heart held over a pit of fire. He picked up the car key several times, wanting to drive right over for an explanation. However, he angrily put it back whenever he remembered what had happened at the hospital.
That afternoon, Trevor was completely overwhelmed by an unprecedented feeling of uneasiness.
That night, Victoria went to East Bannpool. She was in the private room comparing photos of the different models. After watching a few videos of the models and discussing it over with Mr. Clark, she had made up her mind.
"These three aren't bad. It would be best if these two can make it!" Victoria stated her pick.
Victoria pointed at two of the mixed-race male models of the swimsuit show. She was quite satisfied with their presence and aura.
With a smile, Mr. Clark shook his head in amazement. "You really are a designer. You have such sharp eyes! These two are the signature models of our company," he said.
"Be sure to give a good quote! Adrian, this is a collaborative show between Fashion, j, the famous jewelry brand, and the famous makeup brand. If someone likes your signature models, they can easily be endorsers of a product or be in fashion shows in the future. Your value will rise with them! You should be well aware that Fashion, j is the symbol of identity and status. You may not be able to watch their shows on the spot even though you have the money! I've worked my butt off for these ten minutes. You must help me! If this is a success, well have it easy in the future! But if it fails..." Victoria trailed off.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOf course, if this fails, there wouldn't be a future for her! This is why she had to do all she could to make sure that this wasn't just a one-tbusiness! Mr. Clark clapped his hands in awe.
"Okay, we'll give you our old quote then! I'll try my best to help you coordinate. Although the models may not necessarily be these two, they will definitely be two of the three you selected. Mr. McGowan is just next door. I'll help you negotiate with him and see if I can get an approval letter for you! Getting it isn't quite the walk in the park, so you'll need to ask Mr. McGowan for help!" Mr. Clark said.
"Appreciate your help, Adrian. Here, let's toast to you!" Victoria shot him a charming smile.
They then happily went on chatting about other dinner topics. Before long, the man left the room and Victoria was left with people whom she wasn't familiar with, so she felt out of place. She decided to make a trip to the bathroom for sair. Hopefully, her plan would go smoothly! It was a rare opportunity for her design to be favored by Fashion, j! This would definitely bring benefits to her own brand name.
If the collaboration went smoothly, her custom-made products could also make it to the world's high-end market in the future! Although she didn't have the ambition to be world-famous, the thought of it still sent waves of excitement through her! When she arrived at the door of the private room, she realized that Mr. Clark's seat was still empty while a group of people carried on speaking over each other loudly in the room.
Victoria had no intention of going on, and just wandered around the aisle.
"He sure is taking a while. Are things not going well, or has there been a mishap?" Victoria mumbled to herself. Should she go and take a look? She subconsciously walked towards the private room that Mr. Clark and Mr. McGowan were in.
As she approached the door, she stopped in her tracks, afraid that she would mess things up even more due to her impatience. She decided it best to turn around and go back to where she cfrom. Just as she took a step back, the door of the room next door suddenly opened. When she looked up, she saw Mr. Clark coming out of the private room.
"Adrian," Victoria called out to him.
Victoria rushed over.
The man politely turned his head away and coughed to get rid of the smell of alcohol.
"I'm sorry. I was dragged over by a friend for a drink! I've already talked to Mr. McGowan about it -it's a go! Mr. McGowan said that if you can really get us an endorsement or ora forma show, then we would really appreciate it! Designer Atlas has a wide network! It's said that even popular actresses have to line up for Fashion, j!" The man said.
This was something he hadn't known before. After all, it was a foreign brand and not much collaboration with the local brands had been done. He hadn't even heard of it! "Oh, I'm just lucky! Adrian, you've helpedso much. I'll do my best!" Victoria said.
As a matter of fact, Alaric's boyfriend was a big help! She had already been given her shot; the rest was up to her. Victoria knew that she had to work hard to make full use of this opportunity! She smiled as she reached out to shake hands with Mr. Clark. "You'd definitely be the first to know if something good pops up. After all, I'd still be requiring your assistance in the future." After catching up on ssmall talk, Victoria was about to leave when the door of the room opened once again. A man emerged from it, saying, "Hey, Adrian, that..." "Adrian, since you're busy, I'll take my leave first!" Victoria said as she gave him a slight bow.
As she turned to leave, she inadvertently saw a familiar figure on the sofa in the room. Victoria's eyes immediately widened at the sight of the man. Trevor? At that moment, Trevor was gulping down a few glasses of wine in frustration. His arm hung across a woman's shoulders. It seemed like they were playing a game. The a woman had heavy makeup on Had a figure of a goddess and looked very young. At that moment, she was leaning against Trevor, giggling away like a schoolgirl.
This social gathering was supposed to be relaxing for Trevor. As such, his glass had never been empty throughout the entire night! "You lost. Drink!" Trevor ordered.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Master Trevor, you're bullying me... That wasn't what you said just now! I don't care. I'll only drink if you drink half of yours," the woman said with a seductive sigh.
The woman was obviously a veteran
in the entertainment industry. She persuaded and pestered Trevor until she finally made him drink half an glass of wine Since he was here for the excitement, he didn't refuse her at all. As he took a sip of wine, he vaguely felt a pair of eyes on him. That was when he spotted the cold stare outside, and his mind went off like a gun in his head.
At that moment, the man outside the room noticed Victoria's strange behavior. "Designer Atlas, did you see someone you know? Would you like to go in and have a drink?" He asked.
Victoria suddenly cto her senses and clenched her fists tightly. She replied with a smile. No, thank you! Q It's getting late and I should be heading home! I'll be leaving first, Adrian. Callif you need anything!" After giving him a polite nod, Victoria turned around and strode away. As soon as her back was turned towards the men, the corners of her mouth drooped as she left the area.
She walked for a long while before turning out of the aisle. After making a corner, she leaned against the wall and helplessly closed her eyes.
As soon as she felt her nerves calm, she prepared herself to leave when suddenly, someone grabbed her by the wrist. "Vicky," The voice sounded.
Let's go home! The words were at the tip of his tongue, but Trevor just couldn't force them out.
In the past few days, there wasn't a day when he wasn't muddleheaded. He missed her to the core! However, he was used to being the dominant one, and was accustomed to women taking the initiative to talk to him, especially after losing his temper. Thus, these three simple words felt like they weighed a ton to Trevor.
