The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband

Naturally, Mandy couldn’t agree. Plagiarism was a taboo in the fashion industry. As a renowned designer, she couldn’t plagiarize, regardless of how impressive someone else’s design might be.

Their discussion went on for some time without resolution. Eventually, Carly asked Mandy to leave and said they would discuss it another day.

Not long after Mandy returned, Carly informed her that she had changed her mind and decided to hire Natalie.

When Natalie learned the whole story, she sighed and shook her head. “Miss Hamilton, Carly’s grandmother didn’t mean that you should plagiarize.” Mandy frowned and asked in confusion, “Then why did she want me to create a design like yours?”

Natalie explained patiently, “She desires a natural and comfortable design, and your designs are all extravagant and intricate. It’s normal to have this outcome since you didn’t take the client’s needs into account.” Mandy’s furrowed brow slightly relaxed. She pondered, “She wants a natural and comfortable design?”

Noticing Mandy deep in thought, Natalie knew Mandy had grasped the concept. She continued to explain, “You took this order just to humiliate me, didn’t you? You didn’t consider whether your style was suitable for this order at all. During the discussion, you didn’t listen to the client’s needs carefully and kept pursuing a luxurious and extravagant style. That’s why Carly stopped cooperating with you.”

After listening to Natalie, Mandy had a moment of clarity. It wasn’t until then that she remembered how every time she mentioned expensive fabrics and extravagant styles, Carly’s Grandmother immediately frowned and hesitated, appearing quite uncomfortable.

At the time, she assumed Carly’s grandmother wasn’t satisfied with the designs. But now, Mandy realized she didn’t like that style at all. Mandy had to admit that she was reluctant to accept this order initially.

Her style was always opulent, and her clientele comprised wealthy ladies. She had never made clothes for an elderly woman from the countryside. So when she found out Carly planned to cancel the order, she was secretly relieved. Only when she learned Carly had chosen her rival, Natalie, did Mandy become so furious that she confronted Natalie.

Seeing Mandy finally understood the situation, Natalie breathed a sigh of relief.

She knew Mandy wasn’t a bad person. Mandy was merely a pampered lady from a wealthy family. If possible, Natalie didn’t want to have a conflict with her.
