Chapter 146 Chapter 146: I’m Covering For Her
After opening the door of the VIP room, he urged her, “Katrina is waiting for you. Go in quickly. I have to wait for someone else. I’m leaving now.”
Bob then left while muttering, “What’s wrong with Miss Hudson? Why hasn’t she come back yet?”
In the VIP room, a short-haired woman walked toward Estelle and complained in a low voice, “Why are you so late? We’re all waiting for you.”
The next moment, she saw Estelle’s face and was stunned. “You are... Miss Hudson?”
Estelle also recognized the woman and greeted her with a smile, “Long time no see, Miranda.”
She remembered that when she returned to the Hudson’s House before, Mr. Mysterious asked Miranda to serve as her stylist.
And on that day, Miranda chose a floral dress and dark blue suede high heels with small diamonds.
“Long time no see, Miss Hudson. I didn’t expect to meet you here!” Miranda said with a pleasant surprise in her tone.
“Yes, I didn’t expect that either. It’s so surprising. I’m a designer of Only Love Jewelry now,” Estelle said.
Miranda nodded with a smile. Then she asked, “By the way, have you met your... Sir?”
“Not yet,” Estelle answered abruptly.
Miranda didn’t seem to be surprised at her answer and just nodded. Then she said, “He should still be dealing with something. Before he finishes it, he may not let you know his true identity. Miss Hudson, please give him some time. I heard of the story between you two from him before. I believe that the story will have a happy ending.”
Estelle was a little surprised. “He told you about us?”
“Just a little. He didn’t tell me in detail,” Miranda said with a hint of embarrassment on her face. Then she changed the topic immediately, “By the way, I came here with Katrina to order jewelry today. She is a little picky and has a sharp tongue. You have to be mentally prepared.”
Estelle nodded her head and said, “Okay, I see. Only Love Jewelry always gives priority to the customer’s requirements. I’ll design the jewelry as she wants.”
“What’s more, your boss...” Miranda lowered her voice and grumbled. “Your boss Tim is also sharp-tongued. He is just like the male version of Katrina. If the two of them argue later, you’d better not interfere with it, or else you will suffer.”
Estelle then shrugged her shoulders to show her helplessness.
“Miranda, why hasn’t that model come yet?” A tall woman with blonde hair said as she pushed the door open and walked in.
She saw Estelle at a glance and then looked at her up and down with disdain in her eyes. “How tall are you?”
Judging from the woman’s manner, Estelle knew she must be Katrina.
When she was about to explain whether she was not a model but a designer, Miranda accurately spoke out her measurements, “You are 165 cm in height and 45 kilograms. The size of your waist, chest, and hips are 60 cm, 95 cm, and 80 cm. And your leg-to-body ratio is 0.62.”
“You are too short!” Katrina said and frowned. “But your figure is not bad. There are not enough models now, and it seems you are the only one I can choose. Come with me and change your clothes. Hurry up.”
Estelle was stunned and looked at Miranda.
Miranda put her palms together and gazed at her with pleading eyes as if asking her for help.
Seeing her like this, Estelle understood everything and showed a helpless smile.
Miranda was responsible for bringing the models here. However, one was stuck in a traffic jam and couldn’t arrive on time. Therefore, she wanted Estelle to replace the model temporarily for fear that Katrina would lose her temper.
Thinking that Miranda had helped her before, Estelle nodded at Miranda with an assuring smile and then followed Katrina to the dressing room.
As soon as they entered the dressing room, Katrina put a set of clothes into Estelle’s arms and said, “Go change it. And remember to put on light makeup. Hurry up. We are pressed for time.”
Ten minutes later, Estelle, who had changed her clothes and put on light makeup, walked into the VIP room with other models.
Katrina, Miranda, and Tim were already there. And Bob was pouring coffee for Katrina respectfully.
“These are my brand’s new clothes for autumn. There are ten pieces in total, each of which needs a set of jewelry to match them. Mr. Roberts, money is not an issue. I just hope that the jewelry can set off the perfection of these clothes.”
‘The perfection of the clothes? What an exaggerated description. Couldn’t she just speak out her requirements directly? Only Love Jewelry is a jewelry design company, not a costume design company. How can we design the jewelry if she doesn’t tell us her requirements in detail? This Katrina is famous for being difficult. It’s not easy to make her satisfied,’ Tim thought.
With a fake smile on his face, he said gently, “Katrina, do you have any other requirements? Just tell me.”
“No. This is my only requirement. It is simple, isn’t it?” Katrina inquired.
“The simpler a requirement is, the harder it is to meet it,” Tim responded.
With her arms folded, Katrina said arrogantly, “You are right. I heard that Only Love Jewelry can always meet customers’ requirements, which is why I came here. My client, Mrs. Green, strongly recommended Only Love Jewelry to me before and said that your company has an excellent designer called Miss Hudson. By the way, why hasn’t the designer come yet?”
At the mention of Estelle, Tim was displeased. “Bob, call her again and ask when she will come.”
“Okay. I’ll call her right now,” Bob quickly moved.
“Mr. Roberts, I’m here.” A clear and soft voice suddenly came.
With a frown, Tim followed the voice and looked toward the models. When he saw Estelle, he was stunned.
Bob was also stunned and stood there open-mouthed.
“Miss Hudson?” he asked in disbelief. “You are Miss Hudson?”
“Yes, it’s me,” Estelle nodded and said. “I’ve been back for quite a while. Unfortunately, a model is stuck in a traffic jam, so I’m covering for her.”
Katrina was worthy of being a world-famous fashion designer.
The clothes she chose for Estelle were the most conservative among all the ten sets of clothes, but they suited Estelle well.
At this moment, Estelle was wearing a camel cashmere skirt that set off her straight and long legs, a pair of British-style leather shoes of the same color, a white shirt, and a brown knit vest. And her long, fine hair was swept back in a ponytail.
