“Who?” Natalie asked and turned toward her.
Lina raised her eyebrows and smiled. “Who else? Our most important customer!”
“You mean the princess?” Natalie asked, her eyes lit up instantly.
“Yup,” Lina replied and nodded.
“Wait, let me send a message.” Immediately, Natalie took out her phone from her bag and texted
Joyce.
After all, Joyce had also said she wanted to see the princess.
Since Lina had hurriedly pulled her away, she could only text Joyce and get her to rush over herself.
“Done,” Natalie said before putting her phone away.
Lina then asked, “Who did you message?”
“Joyce.”
Lina merely replied with an “Oh” but did not say anything else.
Soon, they arrived at the hotel.
Subsequently, they stood in front of the door of a presidential suite.
After Lina knocked, a butler came to open the door and invited the pair in.
At that moment, Natalie finally saw the princess. She could only say that the princess was indeed from
the royal family, for she paid great attention to etiquette in her words and behavior.
“I’ve seen your designs. They are outstanding. I like them very much. When will it be ready?” the
princess asked.
Natalie and Lina then locked eyes for a moment.
Lina replied, “For the jewelry, the five pieces will be made together. It’ll take half a month at the latest.”
Natalie then said, “The same goes for the dress.”
“Okay, I’ll stay here for half a month then. Once the dress and jewelry are ready, I’ll take them back to my
country.” As soon as she was done speaking, she waved to the butler behind her.
He then handed Natalie and Lina an invitation card each.
It was an invitation to the princess’ coming-of-age ceremony. They were both invited.
As the princess sipped on her tea, she said, “As everyone knows, our country is rich in mineral resources
and has a lot of gems. Thus, I’ve also invited many famous jewelry and costume designers. You two can
make some connections over there.”
Hearing those words naturally made Natalie look forward to the banquet. Both Lina and she then replied
that they would certainly make it.
Only when the pair left the presidential suite did Joyce hurry over.
Noticing the pair, she instantly frowned and asked, “You guys are done?”
“Yeah,” Natalie replied, looking at her sympathetically. “Why’d you come so late.”
“It’s not as if I wanted to. There was a traffic jam,” Joyce replied as she smiled bitterly.
Natalie shook her head in amusement. Then, she handed over the invitation card. “Okay, don’t be upset
anymore. In half a month, I’ll take you to attend her banquet. You’ll be able to see her then. You can even
meet many big shots in the industry.”
Joyce’s eyes instantly lit up before she opened the card. “That’s great. Thanks, Nat.”
“You’re welcome,” Natalie replied as she smiled.
After they left the hotel, Lina said bye to them and went separate way at the entrance.
Then, Natalie and Joyce returned to the company together.
In the afternoon, Shane called to ask her to pick up the children first because he was still in a meeting
and could not leave.
Naturally, she agreed without another word.
Thus, after work, she picked her children up and headed home.
Back in the villa, it was quiet. Only Mrs. Wilson was busy.
Natalie got the children to head upstairs to play before she asked Mrs. Wilson, “Is Ms. Graham here?”
“Dr. Baker took her out on a date,” Mrs. Wilson replied with a smile.
In reality, she was also happy to see Jacqueline and Jackson together.
After all, Shane was already married, yet Jacqueline had been keeping her eye on him. It was somewhat
annoying.
“Is that so,” Natalie replied while nodding her head.
That night, when Shane returned home to find that Jacqueline was not there, he did not feel that
surprised.
Thus, he obviously knew that she went out long ago.
However, Natalie did not ask him how he knew. In any case, it was one of two answers. Either Jackson
or Jacqueline had told him.
After dinner, the family of four headed upstairs.
Since Shane still had work to do, he went to the study. Meanwhile, Natalie played with the children for a
while before returning to her room to wash up.
