"Yeah, but the magazine paid a big price for inviting these singers, including the clothing, the magazine needed it to be inclusive, so the magazine wanted to find a clothes designer for the magazine shoot. Originally they found a few top designers, but ......"
"They were rejected?" Violet asked.
Linda nodded, "Pretty much, because there was an exchange meeting between the top designers and they don’t have time to design clothes for the magazine, so they turned it down."
"I see, the annual exchange meeting of top designers. The time is not right." Violet laughed.
Linda took a sip of water, "So the magazine backed off and tried to find a designer with good strength, and when they approached me, I was walking in a dress you designed, so after I shot the magazine, they contacted me and tried to get me to pull strings for you and them."
"Wait a minute." Violet raised her hand, "So they want me to design clothes for them?"
"Yeah, they said your designs were great and they want you to design for them, Violet, what do you think?" Linda looked at her.
Violet's heart inevitably fluttered.
Linda took her hand, "Violet, try it, the chance to design clothes for so many top singers at once is almost non-existent, you must try it."
Listening to her encouragement, Violet took a deep breath before nodding, "Okay, I'll try."
"Great, I'll reply to the magazine right now." Saying that, Linda took out her phone and made a call out.
Violet just quietly drank her tea.
After two minutes, Linda finished the call.
"They asked me to bring you over tomorrow to talk about the collaboration in detail." Linda said.
Violet responded with a smile, "Okay."
"Uh-huh." Linda nodded her head repeatedly.
Violet put down her teacup and got up, "Well, I'm going upstairs first."
"Go ahead, go ahead." Linda waved her hand.
Violet smiled and headed upstairs.
The two children stayed in their room to play, and Violet didn't bother them, but gently closed the door and went back to her bedroom.
"You are back." Stanley's low voice came.
Violet nodded, "Yeah."
"What did you talk about?" Stanley walked over to her.
Violet stretched out and spilled the beans.
Stanley raised his eyebrows, "This magazine is famous, it's one of the several authoritative magazines in the world. If you design clothes for their singers, you will be famous too, and there will be other actors and singers will want you to design clothes for them in the future."
"I know, so I am in." Violet replied.
Stanley asked again, "When are you going?"
"Tomorrow."
Stanley frowned, "I'm going back home tomorrow with two children."
"I know, the day after tomorrow is Monday." Violet buried her head on his chest.
Stanley stroked her hair, "I'll have Fraser book a flight for the afternoon, and I'll go there with you in the morning."
He wanted to spend time with her in his final hours before he was back home.
Because they could not see each other again for a long time after this seperation.
Violet didn't refuse, and agreed with a nod.
The next day, Stanley and Violet left the two children at the villa and drove to the magazine company, together with Linda.
After some negotiations, Violet smoothly signed the contract with the magazine.
Since she still had to participate in the competition, the magazine gave Violet half a month to draw out her design.
As for the dress making, the magazine company would not bother Violet but take the design to the tailor to make it.
