Listening to the murmurs around her, Carlotta subtly glanced at the man beside her. Ethan Barnes appeared expressionless, his whole persona exuding depth, with not a single emotion revealed.
At this moment, Celeste Linden took over the microphone on the stage. Her gentle smile, combined with a poised and calm voice, felt like a refreshing spring breeze, "Thank you, honored guests, for attending my show today. Over the years, it’s because of you that angel exists. I will stay true to my original intention, with unwavering passion, always on the journey. I will design more works that satisfy everyone. Thank you all."
Clap clap clap.
The venue was once again filled with thunderous applause like waves. At this moment, all eyes focused on Celeste Linden, filled with admiration and astonishment.
This girl never had a fortunate start, but she never bowed to fate. She has been shouting and resisting; beneath her gentle exterior lies the world’s most steadfast and courageous strength. She has never been tainted by convention; her heart remains pure and kind.
Stay true to the mission to achieve the ultimate goal.
Having walked this bumpy road, she won a hall full of applause for herself.
How could such a girl not be brilliant?
Ethan Barnes also looked at her along with everyone else. Deep in his eyes, something was sparkling, eagerly stirring despite efforts to suppress it.
...
The fashion show ended perfectly, and Carlotta had her eye on a few outfits. She mentioned it to the director. The director said, "First Lady, I will reserve a spot for you, but these new arrivals are limited edition, so it may take about half a month. We will personally deliver them to your door in half a month."
"Half a month?" Carlotta was a bit unhappy. "But I want to wear them now. I can pay extra, and you can speed up the production overnight for me."
"This..." The director hesitated to speak, "I will consult with angel."
With that, the director called Celeste Linden over and explained Carlotta’s request.
Carlotta looked at Celeste Linden, somewhat arrogant with an air of superiority, "angel, I know you have a high reputation now, but you just sell clothes, while I buy clothes. People say the customer is king, so you should listen to me, right?"
"First Lady, you..." The director wanted to speak.
Celeste Linden waved to interrupt the director, calmly looking at Carlotta, "Mrs. Barnes, you’re right. We do sell clothes, and we will do our best to meet your demands as a customer."
"That’s good. Now I will pay you extra, and you produce the clothes overnight. I want to wear them tomorrow."
Celeste Linden smiled, "Mrs. Barnes, our clothes have never been rushed. Rushed garments surely have quality deviations that I’m sure you wouldn’t accept, right?"
Quality issues?
Carlotta immediately rejected, "That’s definitely not okay."
"Mrs. Barnes, how about this, I’ll bump up your reservation to the first batch. In about three days, we will personally deliver the new arrivals to your door. Does that work for you?" Celeste Linden offered the perfect solution.
Carlotta had no reason to refuse, so she reluctantly accepted, "Fine then."
With that said, Carlotta linked her arm around Ethan’s, adopting a delicate demeanor, "Honey, let’s go back."
"Alright." Ethan Barnes led Carlotta away.
Watching the two disappear into the distance, the director couldn’t help but mutter, "angel, this First Lady is truly obstinate and shallow. Look at her covered in jewels and silk; she has the aura of a nouveau riche. I really don’t understand how the President could marry her and treat her so well year after year."
