Nathaniel gazed at Christina as she glared at him with clear, sparkling eyes. A faint blush tinged her

checks. I didn’t have the heart to rouse her from her sleep earlier, but now she has woken up by

herself….

He walked over, asking, “Does it hurt?”

“Of course it does!” she retorted huffily before flopping down onto the bed.

“Let me blow on it and make it better.” Holding her shoulders, he tilted his head and leaned close to

His breath felt hot against her skin, and her blood began pumping wildly.

A sudden gust of wind brought wisps of cloud that shrouded the silver moon, and the two intertwined.

figures in the room melted into the darkness.

The following day was the weekend, and Christina emailed the completed design drawing to Linda. Soon

after, she received a call from the latter.

“Oh, Christina, your design is simply too beautiful! I like it a lot. However, I still want to embellish it with

diamonds and add a fringe to the hem. It has to be a golden fringe to look good. Also, we should use a

vintage pattern around the neckline,” Linda said, giving a long list of ideas.

Christina had been jotting down the additions Linda mentioned on her tablet. However, when she heard

that last part, she could not refrain from commenting, “There’ll be a lot going on already if we incorporate

diamonds and a fringe… Are you sure you still want to include another pattern? And it has to be

embroidered on it?”

If we do as she says, what was an elegant dress before will suddenly look overly complicated and lack a

clear focal point. Although all those details are exquisite, they’ll take away from the beauty of the dress.

At that moment, she suddenly felt that despite Julia’s frostiness toward her, at the very least, Julia did not

criticize her designs. On the contrary, the always smiling and friendly Linda was insufferably picky.

Linda could hear that Christina sounded slightly displeased. After a pause, she said even more sweetly.

“To be frank, I didn’t like Mrs. Hadley’s dress. It was too bare. All it had were a few jasmine flowers on it.

What’s so pretty about that, right?”

She thought Julia had asked Christina to stint on the dress because she had no taste for

embellishments. After all, how could a dress costing several million have just that little bit of embroidery?

That’s too expensive!

Despite what she said, Christina was reluctant to give in. With so many additional elements, it’ll surely

result in a complicated and busy design. Alas, the customer is always right.

After failing to convince Linda, Christina had no choice but to relent. “I know what to change. I’ll work as

quickly as possible to let you have a look at the design by this afternoon.”

“All right. Don’t tire yourself too much.” With that, Linda hung up.

Christina felt the beginning of a migraine as she stared at the notes she had written. She sat there until

the evening, doing her best to tweak her design based on Linda’s requests. After Linda receivedát, she

expressed her satisfaction and asked Christina to have the dress ready by the following week.

After agreeing to it, Christina went online to purchase the necessary pieces. According to her

calculations, the embellishments would arrive once she had finished making the dress.

Radiant Corporation released its latest designs for the season on Monday afternoon, so Gina took

Christina to the mall to see the collection on display.

After that, they browsed several nearby shops and took photos for research.

“I’m a little tired after walking for so long. Let’s take a break at a nearby cafe,” Gina suggested.

“Sure.”

They found seats at a café, and the waiter recommended them an afternoon tea set for two.

The midday sun shone brightly, casting its rays onto the glass window. Gina was wearing a black, off-

shoulder knit top with a light blue denim jacket layered over it. However, since the café had heating, and

she had been walking for a while, she half-shrugged her coat off so that it hung around her elbows. Her

light makeup paired with a red lipstick was very eye-catching.

Christina could not resist whipping out her phone, pointing it at Gina, and secretly snapping a few

photos. Just as she set aside her phone, she heard footsteps approaching.

“Were you secretly taking photos of me?” demanded a woman with sunglasses and long, wavy hair.

Although she did not raise her voice, her tone was sharp.

Her question left Christina momentarily stunned. After a while, she finally noticed that while taking those

photos of Gina, she had angled her phone directly toward the side. No wonder this woman

misunderstood what happened.

Quickly pulling up the photos, she showed them to the woman. “I wasn’t taking photos of you. They were

only of my colleague.”

She thought the matter would end there, but to her surprise, the woman did not believe her and tried

grabbing her phone. “How do I know you’re not keeping other photos on your phone? I want to check it

myself.”

Even though Christina dodged to avoid her, the woman continued reaching out to snatch the phone.

Why is she still being so unreasonable when I’ve already clearly explained what happened to her? Is she

trying to steal my phone?

Meanwhile, Gina sprang to her feet to stop the woman. “Is there a problem, ma’am? My colleague has

already explained that she was taking photos of me.”

The woman became more aggressive after several failed attempts to snatch the phone, and amid the

chaos, Christina accidentally knocked off the sunglasses from the woman’s face.

When they saw the beautiful face that was now exposed, Christina was dumbfounded. “Gwyneth?”

Out of the corner of her eye, she saw a man, who had been sitting unmoving, get up suddenly and hurry

out.

The man appeared to be just an ordinary person, yet he behaved as though he was worried someone

would see him. He got into a Jaguar parked on the side of the road and left.

He’s the guy who was having afternoon tea with Gwyneth. They’re probably a couple and don’t want

anyone to know about the relationship. That must be why Gwyneth is so nervous.

Christina picked up the sunglasses from the floor and handed them to Gwyneth. “I didn’t know you were

on a date. I promise I didn’t take any photos of you and your boyfriend.”

Nonetheless, Gwyneth did not trust her. We argued the last time we met, so if she did take photos of us,

there’s no way she’d admit to it.

“Go on, then. How much do you want? I’ll give you three times the amount.”

Christina could not help wondering why Gwyneth did not seem to understand what she said. In a

somewhat impatient tone, she uttered, “Why don’t you sit back down at that table? I’ll take a couple of

photos of you and let you delete them.”

“Why, you…” Gwyneth was so enraged that she was bereft of words. However, worried that people.

would be watching her, she had no choice but to suppress her anger. “Just you wait. If you dare to

release those photos of me. I won’t let you off the hook just like that!”

With that, she turned and flounced out of the cafe.

Christina sighed. It’s not easy being a celebrity. They even have to worry about others spotting them

when they’re dating.

“Christina, how do you know Gwyneth? She’s an A-list celebrity! However… she always seemed cute

and approachable on screen.” If Gina had not witnessed the exchange earlier, she would not have

believed Gwyneth to be such an unreasonable person

“We met at an event, but it’s not like we really know each other,” Christina explained. We’ve met twice

and argued on both occasions, so I suppose we count more as enemies.

The waiter served them their food, and Christina showcased her photography skills by taking many

photos of Gina. Then, they left after finishing their afternoon tea.

It was a busy week for Christina, and on Friday after work, she delivered the dress she had made to

Yeatder Villa.

The maid who opened the door for Christina recognized her immediately and ushered her warmly

into the house.
