The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 799

Chapter 799

She would follow her lead without hesitation.

After seizing the momentum of the current trend and unveiling a few design sets, the public not only began to appreciate Natalie’s work more but also started following her in increasing numbers.

In a short span, her social media account garnered hundreds of thousands of new followers.

This was just the tip of the iceberg-with the sudden surge in followers, her designs quickly topped the trending list. This led to an enormous influx of orders for Natalie’s studio. “Hello, I’d like to request a design in this style…”

“The outfit you wore at Mr. Nixon’s art exhibition was stunning. Can you design two similar sets for my spouse and me?”

“I’d like a design for my grandmother…”

The incessant phone calls and the constant flow of customers kept both Natalie and Lexi busy yet delighted.

Many people were drawn to Natalie’s simple yet stylish designs, wearable for any occasion. Unlike other designers’ creations that were often too specialized for certain events, Natalie’s designs were versatile and practical.

Seeing the shift in public sentiment online, Vivi was on the brink of losing her sanity!

In a fit of fury, she flung her phone at her assistant, her voice dripping with menace. “How could you botch this up? I’ve invested a fortune hiring these rumourmongers, and yet they seem to have made no dent in that woman’s reputation. Instead, her studio is gaining more popularity.”

As it turned out, those naysayers who had maligned Natalie were actually on Vivi’s payroll.

Initially, she promoted Mandy’s dress to curry favor with some users, then promptly hired a swarm of trolls to disparage Natalie, criticizing her work and labelling it as “tacky”.

Being labelled “tacky” is a designer’s nightmare. Once a designer is stigmatized with this term, it’s unlikely they will attract any clients.

However, against all expectations, the trolls derogatory comments sparked an uproar among the public, and many of Natalie’s impartial fans defended her.

This shift in public opinion led to a reversal of the initial trend.

The assistant cowered in a corner, too terrified to utter a word even after being hit.

Fuming with rage, Vivi slapped her assistant and barked out a command, “Go hire more trolls. I want to completely tarnish that detestable Natalie. And if you bungle this again, you can kiss your job goodbye!”

Like a rubber band stretched to its limit, public sentiment rebounded forcefully when pulled too far.
