Chapter 323 Epilogue: Ka and Calvin XII

    The skirt was adorned with hand–embroidered golden branches and leaves—Amy had hired three embroiderers to work day and night for three days straight. Every detail mirrored nature’s touch, lifelike and exquisite.

    The tulleyered skirt paired with velvet, designed as a faux two–piece, did away with any bulkiness. When Isabel stepped out in it, she looked like an ethereal woond spirit.

    Isabel was delighted. “It’s beautiful. I love it.”

    Ka styled her hair simply and smiled, “Gold earrings will tie everything together with the golden embroidery.”

    Isabel hugged Ka lightly. “Thank you. My friend didn’t steer me wrong.”

    In her excitement that day, Ka had forgotten to ask who’d rmended her.

    “Could you tell me your friend’s name?”

    Isabel smiled, “Hisst name is Barnes,”

    After Isabel left, Ka stared at the name in her blocked list, debating whether to unblock him.

    She figured since he’d helped her business, keeping him blocked seemed too harsh.

    The moment she unblocked him, a single period appeared from

    his end.

    Ka was stunned.

    Ka: [Thank you for introducing Isabel to me.]

    She watched as “Typing…” lingered for two minutes before he simply replied: [No problem.]

    Isabel’s red carpet photos went viral. When asked about her designer, she proudly named Ka’s brand.

    Seeing the media coverage, Ka felt like fortune was finally smiling on them.

    Orders flooded in.

    With just Amy handling designs, they were overwhelmed. Ka hired two more assistant designers.

    Finally making progress, even the air tasted sweeter to Ka.

    Then, an unwee guest arrived.

    Back when business was slow, Brenda had never missed a

    chance to belittle her.

    Ka usually ignored it.

    Her uncles were kind, but Brenda loved to gossip and always took advantage of small perks.

    Ka couldn’t figure out why Brenda, who wasn’t even short on money, always freeloaded.

    This time, Brenda brought a fewdies with her, barging in like bandits raiding a pce.

    “Ka, my friend really likes this green evening gown.

    “The gold one’s nice too–looks luxurious.

    “And this, this, and this. Wrap them all up for us.”

    Amy and Ka exchanged nces.

    “Thank you for your interest. Will that be card or cash?”

    Brenda’s face darkened instantly.

    “Ka, we’re family! How could you ask for payment?

    “They’re my friends, so they’re yours too. Don’t be stingy—it’s embarrassing!”

    At the store’s opening, Ka had gifted Brenda five outfits. Half a monthter, she was back for more.

    Ka had had enough.

    “Aunt Brenda, our brand is haute couture. Every piece is handmade, with no more than three duplicates per design. These aren’t mass–produced.

    “Thanks for your support, but I’ll send the bill to my cousin tonight.”

    Ka had funded the store herself. These five pieces totaled nearly a million dors–not a small sum. She wasn’t running a charity.

    “Ka, you’re so petty.”

    Just then, Calvin walked in, eyebrows raised, 4/6

    Hands in his pockets, he strolled over, eyeing the dresses. “Excuse me, are you buying these? If not, I’d like to get them for my mother.”

    Ka smiled sweetly at Brenda. “Aunt Brenda, are you buying? Otherwise, this gentleman will take them.”

    “Forget it! Ka, you’ve disappointed me!”

    With that, Brenda stormed out with her friends in tow.

    Ka pressed her lips together, finally muttering to Calvin, “Thanks.”

    Calvin grinned. “I was serious about buying them.”

    Ka looked away. “I’ll give you 20% off.”

    Calvin teased, “Progress. At least it’s not full price now.”

    Ka choked.

    Her ears burned as she turned around.

    She’d only been messing with himst time–why was he bringing it up now?

    walked him to the door, though her tone was still 576 awkward.

    “Ka, can I visit more often?” Calvin’s voice carried a hint of pitiful pleading.

    “We don’t carry menswear.” Ka deflected.

    Calvin persisted, “My mom and aunt could wear your designs.”

    Ka paused. “Fine. Do what you want.”

    Calvin smirked, feeling like they’d made at least a little

    progress.

    Though in Bruno’s eyes, that “progress” was practically

    nonexistent.

    Calvin kicked Bruno. “Look into Ka’s aunt. Why does she keep bullying my future wife?”

    Bruno pointed at himself. “Again? How should I know?”

    “Then go find out!”
