Natalie leaned forward and propped her chin on one hand, bracing herself for a long list of demands.
It didn’t take long for the client to write back.
“I have seen the designs you posted on the website.They are very good.You may have free rein in designing my suit.I will provide you with the necessary feedback once you have given me your first draft.”
Natalie wasted no time and began drawing a prototype according to the client’s measurements.
Meanwhile, the company had recently asked them for tentative designs meant for a regular, pre-selection process.
That meant that none of her work would go to waste in the end.
Apart for a few hours’ sleep, Natalie spent all of her time poring over her digital panels.
Three days later, she was finally able to send a final design to the client.
The bespoke ensemble comprised of a double-breasted, gray jacket with matching trousers, an immaculate white dress shirt, and a skinny black tie.
A silver tie clip completed the outfit.
Over the course of her work, Natalie had presumed that this client must be young, probably around her age or so.
After all, her designs did not appeal to the more mature demographics, but young professionals who liked to look smart and fashionable at the same time.
She was also expecting a complete overhaul.
In this field, the first drafts almost always needed revisions.
If the client was willing to pay such an exorbitant amount of money, and for a rookie’s design, no less, then the preliminary rejection was inevitable.
And so, Natalie was utterly surprised when the client instantly approved of her design.
“This is brilliant!”
“Do you need me to polish anything?”
Natalie typed with some trepidation.
Despite her good fortune, she was feeling a little guilty about how smooth the transaction was going.It shouldn’t be this easy to earn twenty thousand dollars, should it?
“Not for the time being.I will contact you if there’s anything I want to change in the future.Don’t worry, this price is reasonable enough.I’m paying for the uniqueness and originality of your design.”
It seemed that the client had seen through Natalie’s nervousness, hence his words of reassurance.She was about to type her thanks when a payment notification popped up on her dashboard.
The client had confirmed their business deal on the website and wired the money to her account.
Natalie clutched her laptop in both hands and stared at the figure displayed on her screen.
She felt immensely proud and gratified, and it showed in the twinkle of her eyes.
Another message popped up from the client.
“If you’re interested, we can talk about a long-term collaboration.”
Really? Natalie pictured fireworks going off in the background.
“Of course!”she typed hurriedly.
“I am.I have plenty of time!”
The man then gave her several more orders, all with some minor instructions.
He seemed to be very fond of suits, though he wasn’t in any hurry to have them made.
He advised Natalie to take her time with her designs, and even reminded her to take a break every now and then “Oh, my God, Natalie! You just made a fortune!”
Overjoyed, Natalie got to her feet and bounced on her bed like a little kid.
All at once, there was an urgent knocking at her bedroom door.
Sebastian had probably heard her squeal just now.
He entered the room without waiting for her to ask what he wanted.
“Did something happen?”he asked, frowning.
“Sebastian! We finally have money!”Natalie exclaimed as she resumed her festive bouncing.
Her long hair danced around her flushed cheeks, and her eyes were clear and bright.
The next thing they knew, she had jumped off the bed and was throwing herself in Sebastian’s arms.
He instinctively reached out to catch her.
