Chapter 531
“Alright, alright…”Samantha began spouting nonsense out of excitement. Did this mean that she would be able to spend more time with Matthew in the future?However, Samantha was happy over this for nothing. It was not what she thought at all.Matthew was relieved to finally be rid of this huge trouble.There was a huge problem at work when Matthew received the call from Hudson. The people working for him were getting unreliable. A data entry mistake had caused a contract to be wrongly drafted.Matthew berated Pete, the person in charge of this, sharply. A lot of yelling was involved.He asked coldly, “Who was in charge of the data entry?”“I am…” A man standing at the very end put up his hand to say.“Who was the one in charge of fact-checking?”“That was me, Mr. Leon…” A young woman put up her hand.“Did Pete check the data?”Pete nodded. His gut told him that Matthew was about to blow his top.“Is this the standard we’re supposed to have after you’ve done the checking?”

Hudson asked hesitatingly, “Mr. Leon, are you… playing a guessing game with me? I don’t understand what you’re trying to say.”Matthew had no choice but to tell him the truth of what happened.“Samantha Shelby is a designer my mother recommended. That’s the reason why I told her to try and interview with your company.”“But Mr. Leon… This woman isn’t capable enough for the job. Also…”He was reminded of Samantha’s attitude. Hudson felt like she was a fly that kept buzzing around his ear.Samantha claimed that she was a rookie designer, but her attitude did not reflect that. She did not act like a newbie in the working world and did not regard her superiors in such a manner.“She claims to have just started working, but she doesn’t look like a newbie at all. She name-dropped you the moment she walked into my office and kept ordering my secretary and everyone else around. "Those who weren't aware she was here for an interview might think she was somebody important. Have you seen

Lucy had never been so troubled before over her design.Koven had told her before that most designers get their inspiration quite suddenly. She needed to make sure that she had post-it notes on her at all times to capture these sudden flashes of inspiration.He even told Lucy that there were times when inspiration hit him just before he went to sleep at night and caused him to be sleepless for the next few nights.Racking her brain constantly would not get her inspiration, and Lucy finally understood this after the last few days. She decided to use Koven’s way of doing something to relax when she had no inspiration. Lucy picked up a book to read, but she felt it was too boring. She decided to pick up her brushes to paint something. It had been a long time since she last painted, and the brushes felt a little unfamiliar in her hand. However, she slowly regained the familiarity of the brushes.She painted the flowers in the garden, and they came alive under her paintbrushes. Even t

Matthew had rushed all the way back home. He was recently much busier than Lucy thought, and she wondered what he was really working on.Lucy knew that he had a lot to do and she walked out of the room to welcome him home. When she saw the dark circles under Matthew’s eyes, Lucy got upset.“Matthew, you haven’t been resting well the last few days. Why don’t you just stay back at the company to rest if it gets too late with work?”There was a pantry and a room in Matthew’s office that could be used for rest. Lucy felt that it was much too tiring for him to be traveling back and forth from the office like that. He should not push himself if he was too busy with work.Lucy had already acclimatized to living in Charleston. Matthew did not need to worry about her so much. Moreover, if Matthew continued this way, he might fall apart from exhaustion. Lucy did not want him to suffer too much.However, Matthew did not feel this way at all. It was tiring to work the entire day, and he neede

Hudson chuckled. He knew that Koven had investigated everything about him.“Your uncle… Is he still giving you trouble?”Koven knew exactly why Hudson left for Eurovia. He felt sadder than anyone else that Hudson had to leave.If it were not for Hudson’s help, Koven would never be where he was today.“You’re still exactly the same, but I’m already used to it. Now that I have more money and power, there’s no need for me to be afraid of him.”Koven picked up the cup of coffee that had cooled down and finished it. “You know better than me what kind of person your uncle is. Do you really think he won’t go crazy and destroy your little company overnight?”He had always been direct with his words, especially when facing a close friend like Hudson. Koven did not hold anything back, and Hudson was already used to Koven being that way.“My uncle would've already destroyed my company if he wanted to, but he hasn’t done anything so far.”“That wily old fox knows to choose the perfect timi

Hudson had forgotten about Koven. Koven was considered a renowned designer in his own right and was known for his cutting-edge designs. Why did Hudson not think of Koven?It was probably because Hudson had too much to do since returning to Charleston and had no time to reconnect with his old network. He had even forgotten about Koven, his good friend of many years.“Can… you do it?Hudson did not forget to tease Koven. He knew Koven would never tolerate another person saying such things to him, even if it was meant as a joke.As he had expected, the look on Koven’s face changed. Koven almost burst out cursing at Hudson. “What are you trying to say, Hudson? You’ve gotten meaner than before.”Koven wanted so much to show his award to Hudson and prove to him what cutting-edge design was really about. A designer like Koven who stood among all other outstanding designers was not to be trifled with.Hudson knew that Koven was a little upset about this, so he quickly changed the topic.

“Did you finally… Accept a student?!”Hudson looked incredulous. Koven was very picky. There was no way he had accepted a student.He remembered how a few young women who liked Koven a lot once approached him for an opportunity to learn from him, but Koven rejected all of them. He even told them to go back to school because they were not meant to be designers.Even though Koven’s tone and attitude were blunt, his intention was to inform the women that this path would destroy their futures because they would not be able to achieve much in the next few years.“I remember how picky you are. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have so few assistants in your studio all these years. I considered recommending a few reliable people, but at the thought of you rejecting them, I thought it was best if I just forgot about it…”“It’s different this time.” Koven shook his index finger at Hudson in disagreement. “It’s because I hadn't met anyone talented before, but this student is pretty gifted, which was

“Are you trying to tell me that you spotted Matthew Leon’s talent, which is how you got to know him?”Hudson gave Koven’s words some thought… If this was true, that meant Matthew would be recommending himself tomorrow. What a ridiculous idea!Matthew’s business acumen was enough to strike awe in others. Was he so talented in art as well?Hudson suddenly felt that if Matthew was superior in every way, he could not be human.“What are you talking about? Didn’t I just tell you that the person I know is Matthew Leon’s wife? You have such a wild imagination.”Koven rolled his eyes and continued explaining, “Matthew Leon’s wife, Lucy Quinn, has a lot of potential. I was astonished by her the first time I heard her talk about her understanding of what being a fashion designer means. I took her under my wing immediately after that.”“That soon? Why do I feel that you’ve made a rash decision about this? Didn’t you once say that anyone who wants to be your student has to go through many te

Hudson was embarrassed by Koven’s words. He wished the earth could swallow him up.“Why do you still remember things like that?”“Huh?”Koven wanted to laugh when he saw Hudson blush. It had been a long time since he last saw Hudson looking that way. He would always become shy when Koven mentioned this.“Have you contacted Chloe after what happened?”Hudson was taken aback and shook his head.Koven wanted to laugh out loud. Hudson was such a proud man. He would one day end up being putty in Chloe’s hands.“Actually… she did come to see me after that, but I rejected her again. Since then, she… hasn’t approached me at all.”“Did you chase her off?!”Koven knew that Hudson had always been a straightforward person, but he never expected Hudson to treat Chloe that way.“I didn’t. I would never chase her away.”Hudson was starting to feel unsettled. When Koven suddenly started talking about Chloe, he wanted to find out from Koven why Chloe would stop contacting him.“Buddy…”Kov

Hudson felt he had no hope when he heard Koven’s words. The hopeful look in his eyes vanquished.“Have I lost all my chances?”Koven looked at Hudson. He looked pitiful yet annoying. However, Hudson was Koven’s friend of many years. He did not want to say anything too harsh to Hudson, and he could not bear to disappoint Hudson either.“Well, not exactly…” Koven wanted to be as easy on Hudson as possible. “As long as you keep working hard at this, it might touch Chloe. Your effort will pay off.Despite his words, Koven knew that it all depended on what Chloe thought about all of this because it sounded like Chloe had given up on Hudson. Koven had no idea how Chloe felt about Hudson now.“What should I do? How do I make this work?Koven decided to help Hudson to the very end when he saw how eager Hudson was to work things out with Chloe.“How about learning from what Chloe did? She gave you flowers and wrote letters to you back then. Just do exactly what she did. That might work.”
