Chapter 597
"Ms. Quinn, please come this way," Hudson invited after a polite handshake. Lucy nodded eagerly and followed him into his office.
Once seated, Hudson opened up Lucy's draft work. "Ms. Quinn, this is the draft that Matthew shared with me. I really love it, and I'm thinking of turning it into our new model for the year and releasing it widely. What do you think about that?" Hudson asked, smiling at Lucy with anticipation.
Lucy stared at the computer screen, where her first-ever dress design was displayed. It was a long, flowing gown adorned with delicate embroidery. Starting with a pristine white at the top, it gradually transitioned into a soft pink hue toward the hem, creating a captivating ombre effect that appeared to be quite popular.
"Is this... really okay?" Lucy could hardly believe it. Her simple design, something she had just thrown together, was picked to be the new hit of the year.
Hudson watched her, trying not to laugh at her shocked face. "You don't have to worry, Ms. Quinn. Your design fits perfectly with this year's collection. I want it to be our star piece," he said, trying to calm her nerves.
Lucy blushed and looked down, but Hudson's words made her smile. She nodded, feeling a surge of confidence.
"Ms. Quinn, do you have any more designs at home?" Hudson asked, more curious than ever after seeing her talent.
Lucy was taken aback for a second, then quickly nodded. She dug into her bag and pulled out her sketchbook, laying it on his desk.
Hudson was genuinely surprised. He had not expected her to have a whole book of designs. As he flipped through the pages, his eyes widened. Lucy's talent was incredible, almost on par with Koven.
After he finished looking through the book, Hudson grinned at Lucy. "I'll definitely use these designs. Thank you for joining our company, Ms. Quinn. Having someone as talented as you is a real privilege for us." Lucy's cheeks turned pink, and she shyly looked down after being praised.
Hudson could not help but chuckle
at her reaction. He then asked, "So when can you start working here for real?"
Lucy felt a huge sigh of relief at his words.
"I can start tomorrow!"
She said, her eyes sparkling as she gazed at Hudson.

"Great, Ms. Quinn. Let's take a tour of the company first, including your very own design office."
Lucy's eyes widened in surprise when she heard she would have her own office. She had thought she would be sharing with others. She was amazed!
Hudson took Lucy around the company and finally to her new workspace. As the door swung open, Lucy was in awe.
A beautiful floor-to-ceiling window greeted her, and everything was so neat and clean. It made her feel instantly happy and at peace. The room was decorated in soothing grays and whites.
"Ms. Quinn, do you like it? If not, we can make changes," Hudson asked upon seeing that Lucy was speechless.
"I love it, I really love it. Thank you!" she replied.
