Baron nodded. "Good, I'll let Mr. Tudor know. Enjoy your meal, Mrs. Tudor."

With that, he turned and left, though his gaze lingered on Patrick for a moment-a look filled with cold warning that sent a chill down Patrick's spine. The door closed again.

Aveline remained calm as she looked up at Patrick, who no longer seemed as relaxed as before.

Just follow your original inspiration and show me the final version when it's ready." Aveline raised an eyebrow slightly. "Are you sure, Mr. Gunner? We could still discuss it further."

"No need, no need! I trust your talent completely. Your designs have a unique flair, and I'm sure the final result will be impressive," Patrick replied, waving his hand with a forced smile.
