The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 501

Chapter 501

All eyes were fixed on him. At this moment, he held the entire room in the palm of his hand.

There could have been no better finale. After his walk, the show was finished. All the models came onto the stage one by one. Under the lights, the logo of W Marks Studio gleamed proudly on the screen.

Zuri was left astounded by the whole show. She brought her hands together in a loud clap, and others followed. Soon, the room was drowning with the sound of applause.

Backstage, Zuri cleared her throat and said, “Natalie, you should go out and say something. I’m sure everyone would like to hear a few words from the designer of W Marks Studio.”

It was the right decision to let Natalie in today.

Natalie hesitated. It was no small matter to change Draco’s original design without telling him. She would have a lot of explaining to do after she got back. As things stood right now, she didn’t think she had the right to speak on behalf of the studio.

“Maybe next time. Mr. Wesley is not here and I don’t think I can represent him.” Natalie waved her hand.

Derek walked off the stage and stood in front of her. With a smile on his face, he said, “What are you being shy for now? That’s not like you. Where’s the woman from earlier? It’s tradition for designers to give a speech after the show. You can’t break it.”

Natalie took two steps back, but Derek had already grabbed her wrist and then carried her up.

“What are you doing? Let me go!” With a scream, Natalie covered her face with her hand.

The next thing she knew, Derek put her down and was handing her a microphone. Behind her, all the models who wore Draco’s designs stood.

Natalie was shaking with nervousness inside. She took the microphone and said, “Mr. Wesley couldn’t make it to the show, so I am here on his behalf. Ladies and gentlemen, I hope this collection reached your expectations. Since the founding of W Marks, integrating innovation and simplicity has always been the central direction of Mr. Wesley’s designs. In the future, he will stay true to this vision and create more original pieces.” The room was once again engulfed in resounding claps. After her speech, Natalie turned around and went backstage. The show had come to an end.

The live broadcast had concluded. Inside the W Marks Studio, the young designers hugged each other, ecstatic at the success of the show. “Natalie’s speech was great!” they cheered excitedly.

“Mr. Wesley made the right choice taking her in.” Tasha was also happy.

The whole studio was in a celebratory mood. None of them paid attention to Dalores.

She was sitting on a chair, her head bowed as she furiously sketched. Her hand gripped the pencil, drawing over lines again and again until the wood snapped.

Resentment chewed on her insides as she muttered, “It’s not fair… Why does she get to have everything?”

The Substitute Wife My Poor Husband is a Billionaire

Natalie had been sitting backstage in a daze even after the end of the show.

Everything she had just experienced was an incredible whirlwind. She was still wondering how she’d had the courage to take the stage and stand in front of those crowds just a few moments before. She was so nervous that her legs were still shaky.

“You and W Marks did such a great job. This is my business card. Would you please give it to Mr. Wesley?” “And this is mine! Could you tell Draco that I love his designs?”

Two editors-in-chief of top fashion magazines handed their business cards to Natalie on their way out the door.

After the show, many people from the fashion industry had come to greet Natalie.

W Marks had clearly left a lasting impression in the minds of everyone who had attended the Iridescent Show.

Natalie took all the business cards handed to her. She had never been to such a grand event in her entire life. Although her own work wasn’t displayed in the show, she just felt lucky to witness the spectacle.

“Are you tired?” Zuri handed Natalie a bottle of water.

Taking the water, Natalie smiled and said, “I’m fine. There was just so much running back and forth.”
