Hesper was now holding the draft of a commercial manuscript. Since Pennleigh ran into her in
Fredonia, he had been persuading her to collaborate with his studio. Pennleigh thought that she was a
very innovative designer, as she had always had her own ideas in design, especially when it came to
including some oriental elements in them.
In the previous competition, even Hesper did not dare to take risks with this design element. After all,
among all internationally recognized designs, there were too few that had oriental elements, and the
recognition of Halwanese people was very low too.
“Why don’t you give it a try? There might not be many precedents that came before you, but perhaps
you might be the future.”
When Pennleigh, a man that had a pure foreigner’s look, said these words, Hesper could not help but
feel a little weird.
But there was no doubt that she thought Pennleigh was right; design should not have boundaries. But
even she got caught up by this statement before this, forgetting the original intention of fashion design.
Since then, Hesper had often been receiving some orders from Pennleigh. The studio’s quotation was NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
not cheap, but it also showed her that her designs were indeed being accepted.
After all, Pennleigh was an entrepreneur, and so was she, so none of them would take on an order that
would not make money.
“Come to my studio this weekend, and let’s go over the contract in details. It just doesn’t sound right for
you to keep taking orders from me this way.” Pennleigh’s voice sounded helpless through the phone.
“Aren’t you afraid that I’ll run away with your money and design draft?”
“Why would you do so? Plus, it’s Eustoma that we’re talking about. How many people would actually
kill just to get the chance to be deceived by you?”
Pennleigh acted like a younger brother most of the time, so Hesper could not help but joke around with
him. “Okay, then let’s make it this coming Saturday. School has already started for me, so my schedule
may not be as flexible as before, just so you know.”
“Yeah, it’s fine by me. Just come here on Saturday. I’ll send you the address… And do you need me to
come pick you up?”
“No, there’s no need for you to worry about me. I’ll get there by myself.” Hesper put her pen down and
smiled. The light reflected on the tip of her eyelashes flickered. “I should remind you that I’m an adult,
Mr. Pisano.”
After officially signing a contract with Eustoma, Hesper felt more at ease.
Although Hesper felt that Pennleigh would not deceive her through their previous collaborative route, it
was obviously safer for her to hold on to a contract that would hold both parties accountable legally. No
matter how close her relationship with Pennleigh was, she must still be on guard against him.
Hesper followed Pennleigh into the studio and listened to him explain to her the company’s main
division of labor and the allocation of workstations.
“Everyone in the design department has their own office, Pennleigh claimed. “Although Eustoma is only
a private studio, it’s been developing fairly well over the years. I like to win some designers over with
this trait.”
Hesper smiled and nodded. “I guess I’m one of them now.”
“Yes… If you want to come and work here in the studio, this would be your office.”
All the offices in Eustoma were independent glass rooms. One side of Hesper’s office was made up of
a gigantic French window facing the sun, so the room had good lighting. Just looking at it would make
any person feel content.
“Thank you.”
“No, I’m the boss, so it’s my responsibility to look after the rights and benefits of my employees.”
Pennleigh waved his hands in slight embarrassment. “We’ll be having a meeting later to announce your
association with us from now on. Before that, you can get acquainted with your office and colleagues.”
“Great.”
“Good morning, Andris.” When Evon stepped into the company, he realized that the atmosphere in the
studio seemed a little different that day.
Andris caught up to Evon and whispered to him, “Mr. Pisano just brought in a young lady who seems to
be a new designer.”
