Feel the Way You Feel, My Love Chapter 1061
Natalie pursed her lips. “Of course I am. The other three designers are superb and are more than capable of
winning the competition. To tell you the truth, I am not at all certain if I stand a chance.”
Sally sighed. “I feel the same. Though models don’t share the rivalry that you designers do, we actually compete in
secret to assist our designers in winning. We would share the glory if our designers won. It would undoubtedly be an
honor and would benefit our careers immensely. That is why…”
She wiped her brow and continued somewhat sheepishly, “That is why they have such an imposing stage presence
in order to bring out the best in the designs. Despite making it to a runway of an international competition with lots
of training as an amateur, I am still far beneath the skill level of veteran models. I just want to let you know that I
may not be able to help you in that regard, Nat. If you want to win this thing, it’s going to be all down to your
design.”

models, the veteran models could still lose if the designs they donned were subpar.
Natalie understood Sally’s guilt.
Hence, she took the latter by the hand. “Don’t feel like you’ve let me down. It’s already an amazing achievement to
have come this far. Even if we get eliminated at this point, I feel like we have already accomplished something
worthwhile. Being the winner only gives us a little more fame and reward, that’s all.”
Stakeholders within the fashion industry had their eyes on the designers who had made it to the final few rounds of
the competition to scout for new talent.
As the new generation of designers, they would have achieved fame within the industry through exposure from
such a high-profile competition.
At that point, Natalie’s name was already synonymous with Mina’s. When Natalie eventually made the official
announcement that Mina was actually her, the combined prestige of both names would lift Natalie to
unprecedented heights within the industry.
At that point, her influence within the industry would be even higher than the winner of the competition.
Right then, Natalie’s phone rang.
Smiling upon seeing the caller ID, she picked up immediately. “Hello, Lina.”
“You still remember me, Nat,” came Lina’s delighted voice.
Natalie nodded. “Of course I do. We are partners for the upcoming competition, aren’t we?”
Before the international competition, she had become acquainted with Lina, and they made it to the finals before
partnering up with one another.
The design of dresses was not the only thing the international competition was about as the design of accessories
was being judged at the same time. During the semi-finals, the designers of dresses and accessories would be
working together.
They were tasked to creatively match the dress design with that of jewelry, footwear, and hats.

“I was originally worried that I would not be able to make it to the semi-finals, but here I am! I don’t know what’s
going on this year, Nat. The competition is fierce.” Lina sighed over the phone.
Natalie nodded. “I know, it’s the same here. We just have to be cautious and give the upcoming competition our
best shot.”
“You’re right,” Lina agreed. After a pause, she asked again, “By the way, what is your model like? She will be
walking the runway with our designs. I would like to know if your model is up for the task.”
In Lina’s prior jewelry design competition, the creations of the designers were shown off on racks instead of being
worn by models.
It’s different this time. My designs will be worn by a model.
Natalie gazed at Sally, who looked back at her in confusion. “Don’t worry, Lina,” Natalie said with a smile. “She is
more than up for it. You’d like her. She is a little like Joyce.”
