Substitute Her to Love You (Charlotte and Patrick) novel Chapter 412

This project would be built on the acknowledged suburb of City Y. It would take at least more than an hour to drive from the downtown there.

However, there was one advantage here, that was, two rivers met here.

Based on the rivers, we would build a residential quarter and lead the water into the residential quarter, making them flowthrough it.

In other words, there would be all running water in the whole residential quarter.

Based on my observation of the likings of the rich, that was what they loved the most.

Nancy and I both predicted that this residential quarter should be soled out with ease.

After taking on this project, Nancy and I had a field trip there.

During this period, I often lived there and basically left Glenn to Jason.

It took Nancy and me nearly four months to complete this residential quarter project. By the time the project was done, it had been past midOctober.

It took us a longer time than we designed a residential quarter on usual days.

For this reason, the staff of the Gifted Design originally had some criticisms against us. However, after we handed over the design sketch to them, they were with us, thinking that all the waiting was worth it.

After the design draft came out, the construction company started to build the foundation.

The residential quarter was divided into two areas. One was called Highest Goodness Pavilion. And the other one was named Water Like Resort.

The two areas would be sold at the same time. However, the deadline for the housing possession date was different.

After the construction company started building the foundation, the housings were open for purchase. As a result, in just three days, a total of 88 villas in the whole residential quarter were all sold out, which was beyond my and Nancy's expectations.

At a time when the real estate industry was in a difficult position, it was a miracle.

At a banquet celebrating the all sold-out housings, the boss of Gifted Design told us that he had reserved two houses for us. To express his gratitude, he could sell them to us with a 20% discount.

Nancy and I agreed on the spot immediately.

Therefore, our studio became very famous.

There were more and more orders in the studio.

And we gradually recruited more people.

But speaking of the designers, there were just the two of us.

I made an agreement with Nancy, that was, rather than make our studio the largest one, we would make it the best one instead.

After that, we bought a piece of land in the west of the city, planning to ask the Construction Institute of City Y to build a four-story building there for us.

At the same time, we paused all our work and focused on completing the design of our studio.

After all, it was related to the face job of our studio.

During this period, my old school, Academy of Fine Arts of City Y, planned to hold a creative design competition and invited me to be a judge.

It was my class teacher back then who called me in person. Thinking that it wasn't appropriate for me to refuse, I agreed.

On the day of the finals of the design competition, the school specially sent someone to pick me up in a car.

By the time I arrived at the school, other judges had been waiting there.

Except for me, others were basically teachers of the school.

We directly went to a amphitheater.

All the seats in the amphitheater were taken.

As I walked forward, there was someone waving to me. I looked at him carefully and found that it was actually Jason.

I had been bothering him to take care of Glenn all the time. And for a moment, I forgot that Jason was a student of the Academy of Fine Arts.

I waved at him.

And I walked onto the foremost platform.

At this time, after the principal introduced us, other judges and I took our seats. Then, the students who entered the final began to give their final explanations about their ideas one by one.

After all of them were done with their explanations, we rated the final score for them.

The creative design was one aspect of design. Even so, it was far from what I was specialized in.

I, who couldn't raise any constructive proposals, rated them all at a mediocre score.

After the design competition was over, the principal personally invited me to attend a small banquet in a hotel at the entrance of the school that night.

The principal said, "The main purpose of this banquet is to invite graduates who have outstanding performance and who have helped us. Please do show up there."

He smiled and said, "Yes, my classmates went there today. Knowing that I knew you, they were all very jealous of me and insisted that I introduce you to them!"

"... Okay, then."

I wasn't interested in knowing kids. However, hearing that they were Jason's classmates, I agreed.

Jason walked beside me. He was very tall. Maybe it was because he ran all the way here just now that I could sense the faint smell of sweat.

On the way, a few girls saw us and ran over.

They all looked at me at the same time with hostility on their faces.

One of them spoke first, "Senior Jason, who is this aunt?"

"I am..."

"She's my sister!"

Just as I was about to say something, Jason spoke first to correct her.

"Sister?" Hearing Jason's words, a girl no longer looked hostile in a second. She immediately said with a smile, "Hello, Sister. We are juniors to Senior Jason."

"Hello, all of you."

In fact, I didn't really mind how they addressed me.

But one of the girls wasn't convinced, asking, "Aren't you from another city, Senior Jason? Why haven't I ever heard that you have a sister in City Y..."

"My sister is here today to be the judge of the design competition!"

Hearing this, Jason was a little unhappy.

He pulled me to leave.

At this time, a girl seemed to have realized it and immediately said, "Ah. She is...According to what is circulated on the school forum today, a popular beauty designer will be invited to the design competition. Her name is...her name is...Janetta..."

"Janetta Nolan."

I answered faintly.

At this time, Jason looked proud, "Yes."
