Natalia shook her head with a light chuckle as she regarded Magnus, who usually wore a stoic, sharp demeanor, but often had a childlike zest for life. "Sure, whatever you say is great."
“Of course it is!" Magnus took her words as a compliment, proudly accepting the praise. "Honey, just you wait and see; our NM brand will leave Hector's NH International in the dust."
“Well, if that's the case, as the designer here, I'd be in hot water, wouldn't I?" Natalia teased with a smile. After all, weren't all the designs her own creations? How could they possibly outrun her own strides?
Yet, Magnus nodded with utter seriousness. "Absolutely, honey. Because from now on, you're my in-house designer. No more making money for Hector!"
Natalia laughed helplessly again, watching Magnus as he busied himself with the final touches on their latest shoe design.
After weeks of preparation, the high heels Natalia designed finally hit the market under the NM brand, personally supervised by Magnus.
As Magnus had hoped, the shoes were an instant hit with consumers. They sold like hotcakes, causing a buying frenzy that led to stock shortages, and the factory had to rush to produce several more batches to meet the demand. Magnus had anticipated this success and was even more determined to keep Natalia on board full-time.
“Babe, we can't let our hard work benefit others. From now on, any stroke of genius you have, we keep it in the family—no more handing it over to that man, Hector," Magnus said excitedly, waving the sales report as he followed Natalia around.
Natalia, cleaning her paintbrushes, took a glance at the report he handed to her and gasped in astonishment. "This much?" She hadn't expected her simple shoe sketch to cause such a frenzy.From NôvelDrama.Org.
“Of course!" Magnus lifted her in a hug. "My wife is a world-class design master! So, no more casual freelancing for Hector. From now on, your inspirations belong to our company, got it?"
Natalia smiled, amused by Magnus' protectiveness over Hector. The success fueled her creative spirit. It was just a random idea that she had sketched on a whim, but it had caused a sensation.
Emboldened by this trial success, Natalia's confidence soared. With Magnus' support, she didn't just design more shoe styles; she expanded her creative vision into a full line of fashion accessories for NM, including clothing, scarves, and hats.
Every product she designed was an immediate hit, earning rave reviews from retailers and consumers alike and maintaining high sales volumes. Just as Magnus had hoped, NM overshadowed NH International.
In just six months, Natalia became the sought-after chief designer for NM and NH International, even being hailed as the "Queen of Trendsetting Design.” Her career, radiant once more, saw her standing at the pinnacle of the fashion world, shining as the newest goddess of style.
One day, Natalia received a call, inviting her to the world-renowned Starlight Gala. When she walked the red carpet, the crowd erupted in cheers, her fans screaming with delight at the sight of their idol.
Magnus, beaming proudly at her side, couldn't have been prouder of the woman he cherished most in life.
As the gala commenced, the host singled out Natalia, hailing her as a fashion trailblazer and presenting her with the Best Designer Award.
Overwhelmed with joy, Natalia ascended the stage, accepting the trophy with tears of gratitude. "Thank you, everyone. My success was serendipitous, and on this grand stage, | must thank one person—my husband, Magnus. Without his unwavering support and encouragement, | wouldn't be here today."
The audience erupted in applause, and the host invited Magnus, the CEO of CT Technologies, to join his wife and share the limelight.
Basking in the applause, Magnus approached Natalia with a radiant smile. This recognition meant more to him than any personal accolade. He embraced Natalia tightly and whispered in her ear, "Babe, you've worked so hard! Congratulations on your triumph!"
Natalia playfully linked fingers with Magnus, whispering back, "This medal of honor is half yours."
Their intimate gesture didn't escape the sharp eyes of the host, who, keen to stoke the romantic atmosphere, teased, "Since this lovely couple is so affectionate, I'm sure they wouldn't mind sharing a kiss, right?"
