“Thank you for your kind words.” The young designer in question tucked her hair behind her ear and stood up.

Though immensely gratified, she couldn’t help the pang of guilt that tightened her chest. Even she had always thought that Natalie’s designs were outstanding, and far better than hers.

“Why are you thanking me? You achieved this with your talents. The previous design that was presented to me was a far cry from this. That one was out of date and boring. There was nothing special about it at all. I couldn’t believe someone had wasted ink and paper on such pathetic scribbles. In fact, I don’t understand why your department had taken in such a person in the first place.”

Cassie tossed the papers back to the folder and took a sip of coffee. Her movements caused her Chanel bracelet to clink against her Cartier watch.

Everyone turned silent and threw surreptitious glances at Natalie. It was clear to them that Cassie was purposely insulting her.

Natalie only clutched her skirt and lowered her eyes, saying nothing.

She was painfully aware of the fact that Cassie was here to humiliate her in front of other people.

But she was now their client, and if Natalie defended herself, it would only make things worse.

She could feel her cheeks grow hot, but she did her best to keep her temper.

“I’m talking about you, Miss Quinn,” Cassie snapped all of a sudden.

Her tone was sharp and biting, especially after seeing that Natalie wasn’t reacting to her barbs.

Cassie wanted the woman to be humiliated in public and flee the design business for good.
