Natalie looked up at Shane and asked in confusion, “What’s going on here, Mr. Dylan?”
Mr. Dylan chuckled. “Mr. Shane contacted me a while back asking for another invitation. He said it was for you, Ms. Smith.”
Natalie’s jaw dropped in surprise when she heard that.
So it wasn’t Mr. Dylan who sent me the invitation, but Shane instead! And here I thought it was because I made a name for myself here in J City and was noticed by Mr. Dylan…
Noticing the somewhat disappointed look on her face, Shane gave her hand a light squeeze and said, “Hey, don’t look so disheartened now. Mr. Dylan wouldn’t have sent you an invitation unless your work impressed him. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have agreed to give me the invitation even if I asked.”
“That’s right. I didn’t agree to send him the invitation until he showed me your blueprints. Ms. Smith, the style of your design is very similar to mine and I must say you are very creative. While it may be a little green at the moment, I’m sure you’ll reach my level over time with your amazing talent!” Mr. Dylan said with a look of admiration in his eyes.
Having been praised by her idol, the disappointment in Natalie was immediately replaced with joy and excitement.
“You give me too much credit, Mr. Dylan! I still have a long way ahead of me!” she said shyly and waved her hands in embarrassment.
Shane raised an eyebrow in amusement upon seeing her looking shy and flustered.
She has never been one to shy away from compliments, and yet she’s getting all flustered when it comes from Mr. Dylan… Haha, she looks kind of cute!
“It’s true that you still have a lot to learn. Your style isn’t fully mature just yet, and I noticed a hint of disorder in your design. However, it isn’t as bad compared to the ones from other designers of your level. Do you have a mentor, Ms. Smith? If not, how would you feel about having me as your mentor?” Mr. Dylan asked with a smile.
All the other designers and appraisers nearby were shocked when they heard that.
