It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1249

"Don't worry, Bella. I've already taken some decongestant. I'll be okay." Leena was afraid that her cold would affect the competition, so she had already taken something before coming here. She hoped the pills would work.

"That's good. Mignonne, it's your special performance tonight. Poise and grace are a must, and you can't let a cold knock you down." Bella was a confident designer. She was sure that the media would focus all their attention on the designer of LN FASHION instead of the competition tonight. After Leena had made her debut in Paris, her popularity had reached a record high. Bella believed that Leena would gain the same popularity in China. She had high hopes, and so did Leena. To be recognized in her home country would really be something.

"Bella, why is it my special performance?" Leena knew if people knew she was the designer of LN FASHION, it would cause a stir. But she didn't know what Bella meant by a special performance.

"You've kept a low profile in the past. People want to know the face behind LN FASHION, and when you do your thing, it will go viral. Everyone knows that a prestigious designer in Europe will be at the show tonight. You'll be the one the media focuses on. They'll pay no attention to the participants. Pity, that!" That was the real reason Bella accepted the organizer's invitation, otherwise she wouldn't have agreed to take part in such a tiny competition. Of course, there was another reason: FX International Group was one of the sponsors. It was said that the CEO of FX International Group was handsome and charming, and girls the world over were enamored of him. Bella also wanted to get to know this dashing gentleman.

"I get it. But, Bella, I don't want to do the interview." Frowning, Leena thought she'd like to live a normal life. She didn't want to be popular and live in the spotlight, with the paparazzi reporting on every little thing she did. That would be the saddest thing to her.

"Mignonne, you must take responsibility for yourself from now on. I'm afraid I can't help you anymore. Get it?" Bella cast a meaningful glance at her last mentee. She hoped Leena would be able to be the most successful designer, and this was Bella's long-cherished wish. It would be her greatest success story, and Bella's reputation would improve immeasurably.

"Bella, I know what you're implying. You'll always be my esteemed teacher, whatever happens. If it weren't for you, LN FASHION wouldn't be such a great success." On hearing Bella's words, Leena became a little sad and didn't feel so hot. Plus, the fight she and Kevin had made tears run down her cheeks.

"Why are you crying, Mignonne? You're no longer my student, but you're always welcome at my house," Bella consoled Leena, holding her hands. Leena was the only oriental girl among her disciples, and also the most talented one. Bella had a great affection for her. Leena could do no wrong in her eyes.

"Mignonne, are you sick? Maybe you need to eat something and lie down. A little rest will put you right again. You'll need it, as one of the judges." Gerard would leave the city after the competition, and be unable to see Leena again for a long time. The very thought hit Gerard like a sharp knife ripping his soul. But since he had made up his mind to let go of her, he had to stick to it.
