Feel the Way You Feel, My Love novel Chapter 1061

Natalie pursed her lips. “Of course I am. The other three designers are superb and are more than capable of winning the competition. To tell you the truth, I am not at all certain if I stand a chance.”

Sally sighed. “I feel the same. Though models don’t share the rivalry that you designers do, we actually compete in secret to assist our designers in winning. We would share the glory if our designers won. It would undoubtedly be an honor and would benefit our careers immensely. That is why…”

She wiped her brow and continued somewhat sheepishly, “That is why they have such an imposing stage presence in order to bring out the best in the designs. Despite making it to a runway of an international competition with lots of training as an amateur, I am still far beneath the skill level of veteran models. I just want to let you know that I may not be able to help you in that regard, Nat. If you want to win this thing, it’s going to be all down to your design.”

As the creativity of the designers was the deciding factor of the competition instead of the performance of the models, the veteran models could still lose if the designs they donned were subpar.

Natalie understood Sally’s guilt.

Hence, she took the latter by the hand. “Don’t feel like you’ve let me down. It’s already an amazing achievement to have come this far. Even if we get eliminated at this point, I feel like we have already accomplished something worthwhile. Being the winner only gives us a little more fame and reward, that’s all.”

Stakeholders within the fashion industry had their eyes on the designers who had made it to the final few rounds of the competition to scout for new talent.

As the new generation of designers, they would have achieved fame within the industry through exposure from such a high-profile competition.

At that point, Natalie’s name was already synonymous with Mina’s. When Natalie eventually made the official announcement that Mina was actually her, the combined prestige of both names would lift Natalie to unprecedented heights within the industry.

At that point, her influence within the industry would be even higher than the winner of the competition.

Right then, Natalie’s phone rang.

Smiling upon seeing the caller ID, she picked up immediately. “Hello, Lina.”
