“Whoa… Really?” Natalie blinked her eyes in surprise.
Lina nodded firmly. “Yup. I won’t be joking about such a thing. There won’t be another opportunity like this if you miss this one, so you must consider carefully.”
“Well, I don’t need to consider it. I’m honored to work with you.” Natalie extended a hand to her.
The two of them shook hands and smiled at each other.
Then, they signed the collaboration contract with Mr. Horner as the witness.
When they walked out of Design Association, Lina caught sight of the car that was there to pick her up. Waving in the direction of the car, she then turned and said to Natalie beside her, “I’ll be leaving then, Nat. Tomorrow, I’ll go to your office with the gems, and we’ll decide on the design style.”
“Sure. Have a safe journey,” Natalie replied with a smile.
She didn’t tarry after Lina had left, driving back to her office instead. Then, Shane arrived two hours later.
Noticing the perpetual smile on her face, Shane couldn’t help asking, “You’re in high spirits, huh?”
“Wow, that was sharp of you!” While fastening her seat belt, Natalie answered, “I got a huge project!”
Subsequently, she told him all about her collaboration with Lina.
A flash of surprise flittered across Shane’s eyes after listening to her. “What a coincidence!”
“A coincidence?” Natalie was nonplussed for a moment before asking, “Don’t tell me you’ve also bagged a similar project, Darling?”
Thompson Group specialized in luxury goods, including clothing, shoes, handbags, cosmetics, jewelry, and the like. Therefore, it wouldn’t be surprising if they collaborated with the nobility.
“No, that’s not it.” Shane shook his head. “That country has diamond mines, so I’m planning to make a trip there personally and buy a diamond mine.”
“Oh, so that was what you meant.” Natalie nodded in understanding. “When are you planning to go?”
“Next week. What about you?” Shane turned and looked at her while waiting at the traffic light.
Natalie shrugged in response. “I don’t know. It depends on Ms. Cohen.”
Since Lina was the one who accepted the project from the royal family, she would be the one making arrangements for their trip there.
Shane was silent for a few seconds as he contemplated the matter. Then, he stated, “No matter when you’re going, I’ll arrange a private plane for the two of you then.”
