As soon as Linsey walked into the office, a few colleagues gathered around to greet her.
"Good morning, Linsey!" "Hey, why'd you leave the dinner so suddenly last night? Didn't even say goodbye." "Yeah! We had to ask the waiter what happened. He told us someone picked you up. For a moment, we thought you'd gone missing!" Linsey opened her mouth, ready to apologize. "Sorry, I had a little too much to drink last night and wasn't fully aware of what was happening. Totally forgot to let you guys know." One of her colleagues sighed. "Guess you really can't handle your liquor, huh?" "Yeah, I guess so,” Linsey admitted, sinking into her chair at her desk.

If she drank a third time, Linsey didn't even want to think about what might happen.
Alcohol always seemed to lead to trouble.
With a deep breath, she made a silent vow-never again would she drink recklessly.
Midway through the morning, Coen suddenly emerged from his office, grinning like a Cheshire cat. "Everyone, we just landed a major client!" The office erupted in excitement, and one colleague leaned forward, eager for details. "Who's the big client? Don't leave us hanging, Coen!" Coen flashed them a mysterious smile. "Kylee Russell." "Wow! Kylee!" "Unbelievable, it's actually Kylee! She's a huge star!" The colleague next to Linsey leaned in, her voice full of excitement. "I thought Kylee had been working overseas for the past few years. Is she really coming back now?" Coen chuckled, clearly enjoying the buzz. "Yep, she's returning to shoot a new project. I heard it's a big one. She'll be walking the red carpet for a promotional event in a month, and the gown she wears? It's going to be a major deal." Coen paused, scanning the room before adding, "Everyone will need to submit a design for Kylee. She'll personally choose the one she likes, and whoever's design gets picked will land the project." 0.0% 17:53 Chapter 183 Everyone, We Just Landed A Major Client!

Coen gave a pointed reminder, his tone serious. "Make sure you take this task seriously. If Kylee picks your design, you could becher go-to designer. Just imagine what that could do for your career." Once Coen left, the office buzzed with excitement again.
"I'm such a huge fan of Kylee. She's drop-dead gorgeous!" "I'd kill to get her autograph!" "Are you serious? If your design gets picked, getting her autograph will be a given!" "Forget the autograph. We need to focus on our designs!" Even without Coen's reminder, everyone in the room knew how crucial this task was.
