Chapter 1614

Nikolai, still groggy from sleep, responded lazily and impatiently, “It’s late at night.

What’s on your mind, Mr.

Clark?”

Matthew didn’t beat around the bush.

“I need your assistance in approaching Devyn.

”

“Devyn? Ah, the fortunate individual recently chosen by Bella.

What’s your interest in her?” Nikolai questioned, perplexed.

Matthew didn’t mince words.

“I suspect her design work might not be her own idea.

I need you to verify it for me.

”

“Are you sure?” Nikolai, taken aback by Matthew’s request, quickly composed himself and responded earnestly, “Rest assured, I’ll investigate the matter thoroughly.

”

The following day, Devyn was intercepted as she exited the studio.

Gazing at the distinguished figure before her, she was taken aback.

“Excuse me, may I help you?”

“Devyn, correct? I’m here for you,” declared Nikolai.

“For me?” Devyn’s confusion was evident.

“I don’t know you.

How may I assist you?”

“I am Nikolai Todd.

” Nikolai provided a succinct introduction of himself.

Devyn’s eyes widened in recognition upon hearing Nikolai’s name.

Having encountered Nikolai’s name numerous times in high-end fashion magazines, Devyn was astonished that the esteemed designer had personally sought her out.

Unperturbed by the admiration evident in Devyn’s eyes, Nikolai proceeded, “Observing your work selected by Bella, I’m compelled to extend an invitation for you to partake in my forthcoming series of design projects.

”

Overwhelmed with excitement, Devyn’s words tumbled out incoherently.

“I’m more than willing! It’s truly an honor to receive your invitation.

Are there any specific design guidelines or requirements?”

In contrast to Devyn’s beaming countenance, Nikolai maint

ained an air of politeness as he extended his invitation.

“I would like to extend an invitation for you to design a wedding gown for my dear friend, Christie Lopez.

She intends to showcase it for her upcoming play.

”

“Christie? Really?” Devyn murmured, disbelief tingling in her voice at the thought of designing for such a renowned figure.

With an aloof demeanor, Nikolai continued, “You will have full creative control, and the compensation will be substantial should Christie approve.

”

With each word, Devyn’s excitement swelled.

She knew being chosen by Bella indicated a promising future, but she hadn’t anticipated such a grand opportunity arriving so soon.

In the current spotlight as a renowned opera star, if Christie adorned herself in Devyn’s creations on stage, it would resonate endorsement within the industry.

This association could open doors to significant financial opportunities for Devyn shortly.

With these thoughts, Devyn’s heart danced with joy.

“Mr.

Todd, you have my word.

I will pour my heart into the design, ensuring it lives up to your expectations…”

Interrupting her flattering words, Nikolai outlined the design specifications for the wedding gown.

“Submit the design within three days, and I shall provide feedback thereafter.
