Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 246

Chapter 246 The Center of Her Universe

As things were, Anastasia was rather pleased with how things had turned out in the end.

Ten minutes later, Felicia received a call from a customer who specifically asked Anastasia to design a men’s necklace for him, and he was willing to pay ten million for the final product. He also mentioned that she had free rein over the design.

Felicia just about collapsed in her seat when she heard this. The commission that she would get from two consecutive personal orders alone was staggering enough to make anyone’s jaw drop. She went to Anastasia’s office and said, “Anastasia, make sure you give this project your all. Forget about the other regular designs you’ve been working on and focus on this order. Don’t hesitate to come to me for any input.” With that, she left.

Anastasia waited until Felicia had gone out of earshot before picking up the phone to call the man’s extension line. A low and husky voice drawled insouciantly on the other line, “Hello?”

“I can’t believe you actually placed the order,” she said in bewilderment.

“Well, now that I have, I expect you to work hard on it.”

“Do you have any specific designs in mind? What about the style of the necklace?” she asked further, treating him like how she would any other customer.

“You have free rein over this,” he said. He had to stop himself from adding, I know thay I’ll like it anyway.

Anastasia considered this for a moment and suggested, “Why don’t I come up with a rough sketch and you can tell me what you think about it?”

“Okay,” Elliot replied easily. After a pause, he continued, “Just put your heart into it.”

Like I’ve never done that for all my other designs, she thought dryly. “That’s sort of like an entry-level requirement for a designer, you know,” she pointed out witheringly.
