Chapter 394

“Really? Then I must take a look later,” Anna said.

Esther nodded. “Sure.”

Sunshine and Felix were well-behaved during the meal, so Esther didn’t need to take special care of them. Though she wasn’t very hungry at first, she ended up eating a lot when she saw how enthusiastic the two kids were about their food.

After lunch, Sunshine and Felix considerately left Anna and Esther alone to discuss work. They took their picture books and sat on the nearby sofa, quietly reading.

“Anna, did you ask Sunshine and Felix not to let me see my phone?” Esther asked.

Anna nodded gently and said, “Mr. Searle’s very concerned about you. He called me to ask me. to pay attention to your emotional state.”

Esther’s smile bloomed, looking pure yet alluring.

“Anna, I’m not as fragile as you think. When I decided to divorce Bradley, I knew what I’d face. Esther held Anna’s hand tightly as if drawing energy from her. “Without experiencing the storms, how can we see the splendid rainbow?”

The more Esther acted like she was carefree, the more Anna worried. She feared that Esther might bury her emotions deep inside, causing the tightly wound string in her heart to break. accidentally.

“Esther, many people don’t believe you about Mr. Thomas’ death, but Mr. Searle, Felix, Sunshine, and I believe you’re innocent.”

Thomas’ death was a thorn in Esther’s heart. Although Liliane had already admitted that she did it, Bradley refused to believe it due to a lack of evidence.

In the past, Bradley’s lack of trust would have distressed, hurt, and despaired Esther. However, now she no longer allows him to devastate her.

The moment she decided to divorce Bradley, she bid farewell to him for good.

“Let’s not talk about these things. Anna, take a look at my sketches,” Esther said and handed her design sketches.

Anna was instantly captivated by the sketches as soon as she took them. The stunning designs. left her in disbelief. “Esther, how long did it take you to draw these?” she asked, surprised.

“About a little over an hour.” As a newcomer in the fashion industry, Esther lacked confidence in her designs. “Are they not good? Due to time constraints, my drawings may be a bit rough.”

“Wow, they’re amazing!” Anna exclaimed, genuinely impressed. “You have no idea! The designs I’ve been looking at in the past few days were mediocre at best. Some even copied from others. But your designs, they really speak to me.”

Esther sensed Anna’s sincerity but still doubted herself. She glanced at the sketches and said gently, “I haven’t added color yet due to time constraints. I can redraw them if you think they’re not good enough.”

“No, they’re great, really!” Anna hugged Esther with delight. “Your designs have a unique charm. I feel so relieved to have found them.”

As the press release approached, Anna was under immense pressure after the plagiarism scandal.

However, Esther’s designs brought her confidence and hope.

Anna was grateful to Bradley for not valuing Esther, as it led her to discover this talented young woman.

“Esther, your drawings are excellent.”

“Thank you, Anna. I’m not a professional designer, so maybe that’s why my designs are more free-

spirited. The main theme I wanted to convey is rebirth,” Esther explained.

Esther did not expect Anna to understand her so well. Her self-doubt faded, and she felt more confident.

“I drew inspiration from my divorce for these designs. It’s like breaking out of a cocoon and turning into a butterfly. I hope my creations become armor for girls, making them feel brave and shine like diamonds when they wear them.”
