Semua Bab Young Bride in a Lightning Marriage: Never Tired of Mr. Leon’s Love: Bab 521 - Bab 530

When Koven arrived at Matthew’s detached villa, he could not hide his shock. It was more luxurious than he could ever imagine.Koven had heard about the endless wealth of Leon Corporation before coming here, and he had mentally prepared himself. Even so, the sight of the luxurious villa still left him awestruck.Over the years, Koven had earned a considerable amount with his career as a fashion designer. Even his personal studio was considered one of the largest in Charleston. However, compared to this house, his achievements seemed infinitesimal.When he heard Lucy say that Matthew owned several properties in Charleston, Koven fully embraced the meaning of 'comparison is the thief of joy.'Compared to the grandeur of the ground floor, Lucy’s room was much simpler. Her room was filled with her own paintings and many books, unlike downstairs, which was adorned with Matthew’s collections. If Koven accidentally touched anything and broke it, there was no way he could afford to com

Following Koven’s instructions, Lucy did not abandon her unique style, which was a combination of traditional elements and tailored designs to create a unique piece of clothing. Koven highly admired her current level of skill.“But this isn’t enough. You have a general idea in terms of style, but you still need to improve in terms of professional competence. No need to worry. I believe in your abilities. Just read more books. Nothing is too difficult for you,” said Koven.Lucy used to find fashion design courses boring and dry, so she feared that she would not be able to cope or might give up halfway. However, Koven was a great mentor. Not only was he able to answer Lucy’s questions professionally, but he could also help her better understand some of the more complex concepts. This made Lucy more confident about her future.Without even realizing it, it was time for lunch. Lucy asked Koven to stay for the afternoon. He originally had other plans at his studio, but he could not say

"Thank you for your concern, Koven. I’ll definitely keep an eye on her.”Lucy wanted to say that she had been wary of Charlotte a long time ago and had developed a sense of vigilance against her ever since getting provoked by her.On the other hand, it seemed to be the second time Koven felt threatened by Charlotte’s subtle warnings.He sighed and said wryly, “You don’t know this but… In our line of work, networking is crucial.”“What do you mean?”Lucy remembered Koven’s warning earlier. She thought that the most important thing for fashion designers was their abilities. “I know I told you that a combination of skill and hard work is important.”Koven explained, hoping to dispel Lucy’s doubts.“Back in the early years of the fashion industry, everyone’s intentions were pure, and there weren’t that many ill-intentioned people yet.“But in recent years, many falsely acclaimed fashion designers have emerged under the guise created by talent agencies. They occupy the path that man

Koven sighed. “After finding out that I wanted to be your mentor, she started to reach out to me, trying to isolate you by pulling me in.”“Is she really that childish?”How dare Charlotte still resort to such cliche tactics? Lucy almost found it degrading. “Lucy, you need to understand that these methods may sound cliche, but they work. The scariest part is that she’s taking advantage of other people’s kindness.”Just the mention of Charlotte’s name seemed to burden Lucy endlessly. If that was the case, she was going to confront her head-on.“What conditions did she offer you?”Koven waved his hand dismissively. “Forget about it. I won't accept any amount of money from her. I even wanted to tear up the dress she asked me to make. After the way she insulted me, I would never agree to anything she said.“Lucy, the reason Charlotte is targeting me is because of our relationship, so you should think carefully about how she might use the same tactic on others. If she already tried to

Matthew’s voice was not loud, but each word struck Samantha’s heart like a hammer. It left her breathless as she wondered what Matthew would say next.Seeing as she was still standing there, Matthew said, “Did I not make myself clear?”Samantha tried to hide her frustration and disappointment. After spending so much time with Matthew, she knew his temperament well. It was best to do as he said.“But Matt… I thought you still haven’t chosen anyone.”“Who I choose is irrelevant now. What I want to know is how you came to know about this.” Matthew sat on the couch and looked at her with a rigid posture.Matthew did not have to ask. He could already guess that it was his mother, Gabriella, meddling in his business again.He noticed that information about his activities was leaking from within the company. It was not just him being paranoid. Gabriella never failed to bring up what he was doing, covering it up with clumsy lies, which only made her more suspicious.After finding out ab
