Ariel Ocean was caught off guard as a wealthy woman suddenly walked past her.
"Madam Rogers, when did you arrive?" Cassie called out, rushing to catch up.
But the wealthy woman, Madam Rogers, ignored her completely and instructed her driver to open the car door, then quickly left.
Cassie panicked.
That was one of Rain City's major clients, and she had a big commission riding on this deal.
She was supposed to design a high-end evening dress worth hundreds of thousands for her.
If Cassie succeeded, she could pay off her mounting credit card debt.
But now the client was gone.
Cassie felt a wave of dizziness hit her.
Not caring about Ariel, she raced after Madam Rogers, trying to salvage the deal. "Madam Rogers, please reconsider! I'll design the dress with all my heart!"
But the car drove away, leaving Cassie coughing in the dust.
