Two Worlds Apart

Chapter 72

"What the....no no, something's off about this piece" I examined the dress handed to me

"What wrong miss Jones?" A member of the production team asked

I took out my sketch and compared it with the dress

"The neckline is different, the hips are too loose and...." I run my hands on the chest of the dress "the stones are literally coming off. Did something happen?"

"I don't really know but I'm sorry about the errors, we'll fix it immediately" he assured

"The rest are perfect though, just that one needs readjustments" Clinton said to him

"Alright we'll get that done" he takes the clothes away

I let out a sigh and rest my back on my chair

"Tired?"

I nod "yeah. Think of how I'll climb those stairs all the way to Morgan's office to tell her we approved the clothes....except you'd want to help me"

He chuckles "no way"

I pout "c'mon"

He shook his head "that's what you get for paying for dinner behind my back yesterday"

"Oh c'mon, you're still mad about that"

"Yes, very" he rolls himself on his chair back to his table

I get up and walk to him

"It was just on time"

He starts to whistle while he scrolled through his phone. I snatched the phone and placed it on his table

"Meanie" then I walked off, heading to Morgan's office and I could hear him laughing before I exited the room

I head up the stairs because for some odd reason, the elevator made me feel nauseous. I got to Morgan's door and I knocked before she granted me permission to come in

"Excuse me Morgan, good afternoon" I slowly walked in

"Oh Courtney, how can I help you dear?"

"Um I wanted to inform you that Clinton and I have approved the VIP outfits for the boutique so they're ready for launching, although one needs bit of a readjustment"

"Oh that's not a problem. I'll send a message to the stylist and photography department so they can take some shoots of the clothes and include it in next month's magazine. In the meantime, you and Clinton can relax.... although you can relax because Clinton has a bit of an unfinished design but think you guys are done for now"

I nod "alright thank you"

I was just about to leave when she stops me "how're you and how's the pregnancy?"

I nod "I'm fine and the baby's okay I guess, haven't had any problems"

She nods "once the bump starts coming out, you should start scheduling a check up appointment"

I smiled "I will, thank you" then I head out the office

......

It was finally the close of work and I couldn't be more happy, I just needed to rest a bit. I place my things in my bag, zipping it up.

"Leaving now?" Clinton approached me

"Yeah I'm heading home, just need to rest"

He nods "I'll drop you off" he picks up my bag

"Oh no no, you don't have to do that" I try to take my bag back but he moved it out of my reach

"It's fine Courtney, I'll take you home"
