Ariana sneered at him and then shrugged.
She stepped forward and looked at Brielle from head to toe.
Afterward, she tut-tutted with displeasure.
âThe designer is a minimalist artist.
You are dressed like a Christmas tree.
Canât you see that it just doesnât make sense?â
Brielle rolled her eyes and uttered sarcastically, âWhat do you know about fashion? Itâs called contrast.
You know, the products are not eye- catching already.
If I wear some plain clothes like Iâm attending a funeral, the target audience wonât spare the commercial a second glance, let alone buy the trashy products.
â
The couple was in sync.
They didnât see anything wrong with the outfit.
Ariana felt the urge to explain to them.
But then, she remembered that they were blockheads.
She turned to look at the designer-Ivan Russo, who had been standing aside.
She thought about how best to explain the current situation to him.
âWell-â
âDonât bother yourself, miss.
I actually understand your language,â Ivan piped up in Italian.
Arianaâs jaw dropped.
That meant he heard Brielleâs disparaging remarks about his designs.
Ivan held a finger to his lips.
âLetâs keep it a secret.
â
âMy lips are sealed.
Trust me,â Ariana replied in Italian, nodding her head.
The two smiled at each other.
Then Ivan asked, âWould you like to be the model for this commercial?â
Ivanâs offer surprised Ariana.
He wanted to change the model for the commercial?
It meant that Brielle would lose the deal and her career would suffer a major setback even before it started.
After thinking for a while, Ariana turned down the offer politely.
âIâm sorry, sir.
Iâm an agent here, not a model.

âOh, I thought you were a model.
You are very beautiful.
With a look of regret, Ivan continued, âYour physical appearance and temperament are just what I need in a model for this commercial What a pity!â
Ariana looked at the pieces of jewelry that were displayed not far away and commented, âI love your designs.
They are unique.
I can see that you combined traditional and modern aesthetics to make them.
I must say that you are very talented.
â
One of the minor courses that Ariana took at the university had to do with jewelry design.
She knew that only a designer who knew his onions could make a compromise between his own taste and the publicâs preferences.
Designers had to put in a lot of work and make several revisions just to put out the best.
Even though the design looked simple to others, Ariana knew that it must have cost hours of hard work.
Ivanâs smile widened after he got that compliment.
He took out his business card and handed it to her.
âHereâs my card.
Iâm glad I met an understanding and insightful person like you.
As they say, less is more.
I love to make my designs minimalist in order to spark thoughts from people.
â
âThis could set a new trend in the jewelry industry.
â Ariana took the business card with a smile.
They talked some more.
After the short conversation, Ivan was all smiles.
âI hope we can work together someday.
If you ever need my help, you can call me at any time.
â
âOkay, we should do that one of these days.
â
Jasper gaped at them as they chatted happily.
Once they were done talking, he grabbed Arianaâs arm.
âWhat were you two talking about?â
Ariana shook off his hand and shot him a glare.
