The concept of their coborative brand''s design was focused on the signature minimalist style that Hudson''spany excelled in. However, executing this collection required designers with strong expertise.


    The designers from Hudson''spanycked sufficient experience, and their design philosophies were different from their desired direction, so they were set aside.


    That meant that they had to find recements who were even more skilled, which was quite the challenge, given the short timeframe.


    The collection was scheduled tounch in thetter half of the year, which meant they had only six months left.


    Given that there were no other options, Hudson came up with apromise. "How about this? Designer No. 3 works for mypany. His work may becking a little, but it seems we have no other choice for now."


    Abandoning the n tounch the clothing line in thetter half of the year was not an option. Many major brands would beunching new products at the end of the year, and if they could not introduce something fresh by then, their brand might struggle to gain traction.


    Even if Matthew invested heavily in advertisements, it could be futile.


    "But if we go with this designer''s work, the sales might not meet our expectations. Wouldn''t we bepromising on our original intent? We want a big sess—a breakthrough for this collection—so I disagree with your proposal."


    Hudson frowned. "So... What do we do?"


    Matthew drummed his fingers on the table. "I''ll figure something out."


    After ending the video call with Hudson, Matthew felt a wave of fatigue wash over him. It kept him up all night yesterday, and he could not sleep even with Lucy beside him.


    It felt like a heavy burden weighing on his heart, suffocating him.


    Despite his extensive search, Matthew could not find a designer whose style fit their brand''s vision.


    A designer...


    Suddenly, the image of Koven shed through Matthew''s mind, followed closely by Lucy.Content is property of N?velDrama.Org.


    Right, Lucy had mentioned that Koven was teaching her about fashion. Perhaps Lucy could help him.


    There was a knock on Matthew''s door, so he told the person toe in.


    "Matt..."


    Instantly, Matthew regretted letting the person enter. It was Samantha.


    "Yes?"


    Matthew''s expression turned visibly grim, and his tone was impatient.


    Samantha was taken aback by Matthew''s attitude but forced herself to calm down and say, "Matt, I came to talk to you about something. I know you need help right now."


    Matthew wanted her to leave. "I don''t
