Natalia was busy today.
She had made preparations for the launch in advance, but she knew how important such an event could be for a new brand making its debut.
Moreover, the brand had decided to use some new models in this show. She must do a lot of extra work in advance just in case. It could be easily imagined how busy and complicated that would be.
Therefore, Natalia couldn't help getting nervous.
But she could always control her emotions. However nervous she was, she looked just at ease.
When the show was about to begin, she went to comfort the models and have a chat with the designer.
The designs of U. MAX were known for their mix and match style and their focus on the younger generation. The main target of the brand was people aged eighteen to thirty, the group of people who had the strongest spending power for fashion products.
This time, the models would wear ten of their flagship items and a score of other items in the show.
Only after Natalia had checked on the designer clothes her artists were about to wear did she feel relieved.
The launch began at two in the afternoon.
With the lights on and the music played, the models showed their runway walk.
Under the dreamlike lights, the models in good shape walked out one by one. Every item on them looked elegant and graceful.
As a superstar and the brand ambassador, Curtis was the last one to come on the stage.
He was wearing a leather jacket, looking casual and handsome.
Plenty of his fans were present and waves of purple bulbs had already flooded around the stage supporting their idol. When he came out, screams and cheers went up from the crowd.
Natalie looked at it behind the stage and curled her lips.
Then there was an organizer who came to talk to her, "Miss Dawson, you can even sign with a superstar like Curtis. I am a bit envious."
He was the senior manager of Annie International and they sometimes worked together, so he was no stranger to Natalie.
Natalie smiled and said, "I am just lucky."
Nobody knew that Curtis and she were old friends.
They just thought that Natalie was lucky enough to sign with Curtis.
Even so, it would be more than enough to get plenty of people envious.
As they continued talking, Natalie's phone buzzed a few times.
She looked down and took a glimpse at the screen and her gaze turned cold.
As Natalie's phone rang, the manager waved goodbye to Natalie and got down to his own business.
Natalie answered the phone with a cold expression.
"Where are you?"
When Natalie picked up the phone, she heard a very powerful and bossy voice of an old woman.
Natalie sneered, "What's up?"
"We'll have a guest tonight. You should come home."
Natalie frowned.
A guest?
Did it have anything to do with her?
The relations between her and her family had been very tense since their last fight. What kind of guest were they having and they needed her to be there?
She refused without hesitation, "I am busy."
"Natalie, now you have hooked up with Mr. McCarthy, and you dare to refuse to listen to my words. Anyway, I am your grandmother. You're a member of the Dawson family. I can let you do whatever you like to do in the outside, but what you've done recently has damaged the reputation of the Dawson family. I can't let you do it at will, so you must come back tonight!"
Natalie frowned.
"What are you talking about? Damaging the reputation of the Dawson family?"
"I'll tell you when you come back. Now is not a good time."
Natalie paused for a moment.
Natalie suddenly thought about the place where she tailed after Jessica. She rolled her eyes and replied, "I see."
After hanging up the phone, Natalie sent a text message to Archie.
She told him that she couldn't go back home for dinner and might come back late.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the message was sent, her mobile phone rang.
