Tasha and Laney immediately walked up to her.
“How did it go? Is Mr.Wesley still angry?”
The two of them were very worried.
After calming down. Natalie told them the good news.
“Really? Mr.Wesley is going to take you to the Iridescent Show?! That’s awesome! Congratulations!”
The two of them were genuinely happy for her.
Natalie, however, was still surprised and a bit worried, because she didn’t think she had the credentials to be eligible for such a grand show.
Noticing that Natalie was hesitating, Tasha encouraged her, “We have to believe in Mr.Wesley’s judgment.Since he trusts you so much, it proves that you have the strength and ability for this task.”
Laney nodded in encouraging agreement, even though she didn’t have much expertize when it came to fashion and design.But she believed whole heartedly that her friend, Natalie, could do everything perfectly. ήόνέĻόž
When Dalores came back to the studio with her swollen eyes, she happened to hear the three of them talking about Iridescent Show.She immediately realized that Draco was going to take Natalie to the show.
Dalores was extremely angry and her eyes were full of jealousy.She had been a designer for so many years, but she hadn’t had the chance to take part in that show.
How could Natalie, a girl who had only worked for W Marks for one year, got so lucky? It was so unfair
Laney sighed with relief since Draco didn’t make things difficult for Natalie.
Knowing things would be just fine for Natalie, Laney decided to go home.She’d been gone for quite some time today.
Mrs.Harding was probably wondering where she’d been all day.
She would not like it if Laney arrived home late.
Natalie had walked Laney to the Mercedes-Maybach.
The servant waiting in the car greeted them and informed Laney that the phone had been ringing in short bursts.
The servant then handed the phone to Laney.She took it and saw that there were several missed calls from Garrett.She didn’t get to see Garrett as much after she married him.
The Harding family’s business was expanding.
Garrett had been too preoccupied with work to call Laney.
Thinking about this made Laney a bit sad.
“Your eyes are getting misty.Is there something wrong?”
Natalie inquired, concerned.
“Is that Mrs.Harding? Does she want you back now?”
Natalie was afraid that Laney would be wronged.
Laney smiled to calm herself.
“There’s nothing wrong,” she replied softly.
“It’s Garrett.He’s coming here to pick me up.”
They hadn’t finished talking when a luxury sports car pulled up to the W Marks Studio’s front door.
Garrett opened the door and got out of the car.He looked the same as before, but he now possessed a more mature demeanor.He looked at Natalie and said in a joking tone, “Mrs.Larson, can I take Laney away? We’re going home.”
Natalie took a step in front of Laney, hiding her behind her back.
“I thought you were too busy, Mr.Harding,” she joked, echoing Garrett’s response.
“Never thought you’d come pick her up yourself!”
Garrett noticed that Natalie was more and more like Brandon.He smiled as he shook his head.
“I arrived in the afternoon and went straight home.They told me that Laney had gone to see the dress, but she hadn’t gone back yet.I called several times but she never answered.I got worried and decided to come here myself.”
Garrett fixed his gaze on Laney.
“I’m so sorry,” he said apologetically.
“I was too busy,” he then explained to Natalie.
“I realized my mistake, so I came here. Could you please give Laney back to me?”
Natalie pretended to be deeply considering Garrett’s request.She then let go of Laney and winked at her.
Laney”s demeanor had shifted.Her heart swelled with joy when she saw Garrett arrive.
“Did you inform your parents before you went out? I missed the calls only because I left my phone have to worry too much.You know I’m not that delicate.Remember that I used to protect others.”
Yet, as soon as she finished her words, her stomach began to grumble.Her grumbling stomach had betrayed her.
Laney blushed and looked away awkwardly.
Garrett took two steps towards Laney, trying hard not to laugh.He reached out and gently placed his hand on her stomach.
“I understand,” he said softly, “but we need to fill that tummy first, so let’s go to dinner, okay?”
Laney placed her hand on his.
They were both smiling sweetly.
At this point, a tall woman with curly hair rushed out of Garrett’s car.
“Mr.Harding, it’s freezing outside! Please put on your coat.”
Her gaze was fixed on Garrett.She didn’t appear to notice anyone around him.
Even though she was holding documents, she took Garrett’s coat and tried to put it on him.
“Thank you, Kelly.I can do it myself.”
Garrett’s impassive tone was a stark contrast to the woman’s enthusiasm.He took his coat and wrapped it around Laney’s shoulders.
“It’s been raining for days on end.” he said tenderly to his wife.
“You should wear more clothes when vou come out.”
Kelly turned to face Laney and gave her a curt nod.
“Hello.Mrs.Harding wants to know how the fitting went.”
Laney gave Kelly a friendly smile.
