Chapter 40 Without Her Job at F&M Apparel, She'd Be Nothing
- Nicole's face showed a hint of embarrassment, and there was a blush behind her ears. Ever since she slept with that guy five years ago, she had rarely had such intimate contact with other men except for work. After lowering her head and hemming a few times, she quickly found a topic, saying, "Actually, my idea is to separate the everyday wear from the haute couture ones. The everyday wear can be sold in-store, whereas the haute couture ones will be tailor-made." She paused for a moment, her eyes lowered. Then, she continued in one breath, "Once your brand opens up the haute couture market, it will rise in status. By then, we can have a separate label under the brand name for the specific purpose of making high-quality clothing."
- Colton nodded with satisfaction, for Nicole's words had pointed out nearly all the difficulties Gardner Apparel was facing. He lowered his voice to make it sound deeper, saying, "These are also my expectations. I didn't think you would point them out directly in just a few words, though."
- Nicole only thought the man had said so out of courtesy, though. Without taking his words seriously, she continued, "These are my preliminary design drafts, but since we're working with your company this time, I hope that your company's designers can get involved in this too."
