Chapter 630


    Lina reced the boxes carefully into the pouch and took out a photograph. “This is a picture of the


    little princess and the information on her measurements. Do have a look.”


    “Excellent!” Natalie eximed. “I was going to ask you for it.”


    Lina stretched. “The princess has a ssic babyface. She does not have arge stature typical of her


    countrywomen, that is why I think that these gemstones will not bepatible with her, with the


    exception of the pink diamond.”


    Natalie was in agreement with Lina''s opinion.


    The two fell silent at the realization that they had ran into a difficulty early on in their coboration. They


    burst outughing simultaneously.


    After brainstorming for a while, the women still had no inspiration.


    Natalie took another sip of coffee. “How about this. We will eache up with a couple of drafts, and


    we’ll get together again to decide which one is the most suitable one for the princess. Sounds like a


    n?”

    “I’m afraid that that’s all we could do for now.” Lina stood up. “Let’s do that then. I’lle to you with


    my designs soon.”


    “Excellent,” Natalie said enthusiastically as she escorted Lina out.


    Natalie returned to the sight of Joyce emerging from the office looking glum. “What is it?” she asked


    curiously.


    “The police station called,” Joyce answered as she scratched the back of her head in frustration. “The


    woman hasn’t been caught.”


    “She’s still atrge?” Natalie grew stern.


    “That’s right. I have provided them with the security footage from the mall, but they’ve insisted on doing


    things ording to the procedure. We could have deduced her escape route based on the footage we


    have, but the cops still managed to let her slip away. How infuriating.”


    Joyce rubbed her head in consternation and continued. “As long as she hasn’t been caught, she will be


    looking for more ways to sabotage us in the future.”


    Natalie did not doubt that possibility.


    That woman’s motive was to ruin the reputation of Natalie’spany and sever the trust build with its


    stakeholders as a means to destroy herpany from within.


    Due to the discovery of the plot by Joyce early on, her n had been foiled. As the mission was left


    unaplished, she would most certainly make another attempt in the future.


    “Don’t let it bother you, Joyce. Since the police had failed us, what we can do is to hire a private


    detective and ferret this woman out as soon as we can,” Natalie said with a reassuring pat on Joyce''s


    shoulder.


    Joyce nodded helplessly. “It’s the only thing we can do, I''m afraid,” she said gloomily. “Oh, by the way.


    what did the jewelry designer want from you?”


    “It''s a coboration,” Natalie answered as she told Joyce about the meeting she had.


    Joyce’s eyes sparkled excitedly. “What an incredible opportunity to design the wedding dress of the


    crown princess.”


    “It is, isn’t it?” Natalie gushed. She then turned to head back into her office to begin working on the


    drafts.


    Joyce called out to her suddenly. “Natalie, wait a moment.”


    “What is it?” Natalie looked back curiously.


    “There’s something I forgot to tell you.” Joyce''s expression turned serious.


    Natalie noticed the change in her tone. “What is it?” She responded in kind.


    “I had received a letter this morning in response to your challenge,” Joyce exined as she strode over


    to a colleague''s desk.


    Natalie followed her with a frown on her face.


    The colleague stood up at once and offered herputer to Joyce.


    Joyce sat down and logged into thepany''s email system. She then opened up an email sent from


    a foreign IP address. “Take a look at this, Nat.”


    Natalie stepped forward and bent down to squint at the screen.


    Natalie, it read. Wait for my return to the country. Do you dare ept my challenge for the title of the


    most promising designer in the country?


    That was the general consensus of the stakeholders within the industry, that Natalie was the most


    talented and promising designer the nation had ever seen.


    Natalie''s masterpieces, Project Rebirth and Radiance were renowned for the boldness of their design.


    On top of that, Natalie had won several high-profilepetitions. It all spoke volumes on her


    prodigious talent.


    As a result, many veteran designers within the country had already conceded privately to themselves


    that she was the most promising designer of her generation. She was the most probable candidate to


    rece the legendary Mr. Moore to be the next top designer in the country.
