“Whoa... Really?” Natalie blinked her eyes in surprise.
Lina nodded firmly. “Yup. I won't be joking about such a thing. There won't be another opportunity like this if you
miss this one, so you must consider carefully.”
“Well, I don't need to consider it. I'm honored to work with you.” Natalie extended a hand to her.
The two of them shook hands and smiled at each other.
Then, they signed the collaboration contract with Mr. Horner as the witness.
When they walked out of Design Association, Lina caught sight of the car that was there to pick her up. Waving in
the direction of the car, she then turned and said to Natalie beside her, “I'll be leaving then, Nat. Tomorrow, I'll go to
your office with the gems, and we'll decide on the design style.”
“Sure. Have a safe journey,” Natalie replied with a smile.
She didn't tarry after Lina had left, driving back to her office instead. Then, Shane arrived two hours later.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNoticing the perpetual smile on her face, Shane couldn't help asking, “You're in high spirits, huh?”
“Wow, that was sharp of you!” While fastening her seat belt, Natalie answered, “I got a huge project!”
Subsequently, she told him all about her collaboration with Lina.
A flash of surprise flittered across Shane's eyes after listening to her. “What a coincidence!”
“A coincidence?” Natalie was nonplussed for a moment before asking, “Don't tell me you've also bagged a similar
project, Darling?”
Thompson Group specialized in luxury goods, including clothing, shoes, handbags, cosmetics, jewelry, and the like.
Therefore, it wouldn't be surprising if they collaborated with the nobility.
“No, that's not it.” Shane shook his head. “That country has diamond mines, so I'm planning to make a trip there
personally and buy a diamond mine.”
“Oh, so that was what you meant.” Natalie nodded in understanding. “When are you planning to go?”
“Next week. What about you?” Shane turned and looked at her while waiting at the traffic light.
Natalie shrugged in response. “I don't know. It depends on Ms. Cohen.”
Since Lina was the one who accepted the project from the royal family, she would be the one making
arrangements for their trip there.
Shane was silent for a few seconds as he contemplated the matter. Then, he stated, “No matter when you're going,
I'll arrange a private plane for the two of you then.”
“Sure!” Natalie concurred with a grin instead of declining.
After picking up the children, the four of them returned to the villa.
Right after she had gotten out of the car, Natalie saw a group of men in uniform walking out of the villa.
Sharon tugged at her sleeve, inquiring, “Who are they, Mommy?”
When Natalie glimpsed the words “Vienna Piano” on one of the men's uniforms, she instantly deduced their identity.
But before she could answer her daughter, Connor interjected, “They're from a piano store.”
“Yup, that's right.” Natalie nodded in affirmation.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSharon's eyes lit up at once. “Piano?”
Clocking the gleam in her eyes, Natalie stroked her head. “Do you like the piano?”
“Yup, I like it! I love it so much!” Sharon started dancing about excitedly. “I saw a girl playing the piano on television,
and she looked really beautiful! Mommy, I want to learn to play the piano and become as beautiful as that girl!”
Afraid that Natalie would say no, she shook her arm coquettishly while speaking.
Truthfully, this was the first time Natalie had ever seen her daughter so enthusiastic toward something.
After all, Sharon was the lazier one among the two children and had no hobby at all.
Phew! I've been rather worried about that, but it turned out that she likes the piano. In that case, I naturally won't
disappoint her!
Just when she was about to speak, Shane walked over after having parked his car. Seeing the three of them
standing at the door instead of going into the house, he raised an eyebrow. “What are you guys doing out here?”
“Daddy!” Dropping her hand from Natalie's arm, Sharon sprinted over to Shane.
Shane scooped her up right away. “What's the matter?”
“Did you buy a piano, Daddy?” Sharon stared at him with sparkling eyes.
Shane was surprised for a second before he nodded slightly. “How did you guys know that?”
“We saw it. The workers who delivered the piano had just left,” Connor huffed with his arms crossed.
