Hyun's phone buzzed incessantly, notifications lighting up the screen like fireworks on New Year's Eve.
I watched as he swiped through his ssages, his eyes wide and his face a mix of disbelief and excitent. It wasn't even ten in the morning, yet the orders were already piling up.
It seed like every heiress, celebrity, and influencer with a pulse wanted a piece of his latest collection.
It all started late last night when a handful of fashion bloggers got their hands on a few sneak peeks of Hyun's designs.
He had only posted a teaser on his social dia, a single photo showing the delicate, intricate patterns and style he'd poured his soul into. It was enough. Within hours, the internet had done what it does best—explode with excitent.
One of the top fashion bloggers dubbed his pieces "an elegant storm of creativity," and the phrase caught on like wildfire.
By morning, the hashtags #HyunDesigns and #ElegantStorm were trending worldwide. The collection was officially launched only a few hours ago, but the orders had already crossed a thousand units.
And these weren't your regular online shoppers; they were the crè de la crè of society. The kind who normally wouldn't be caught dead buying anything off a website, but today, they were scrambling to get their hands on Hyun's designs before they sold out.
From the other side of the table, Hyun glanced up at , a wide grin spreading across his face as he held up his phone, showing the screen filled with notifications from various news outlets.
They were all vying for a mont with the new star of the fashion world. It was surreal, even for , soone who'd seen teoric rises before.
But this? This was sothing else entirely.
Well, I had anticipated so buzz, but I definitely didn't expect this overwhelming level of attention.
It likely had a lot to do with the strategic gifts we sent to popular celebrities, socialites, and even royalty. Within hours of receiving their dresses, they were posting photos on social dia, and Hyun's rise to fa beca unstoppable.
I just hope this montum keeps going strong in the days to co.
"I can't believe it," Hyun breathed out, his voice tinged with both disbelief and joy.
I chuckled, pushing myself off the couch and walking over to give him a congratulatory pat on the back. "Believe it," I said, flashing him a grin. "You've officially made it, Hyun. The whole world wants a piece of your designs."
"I don't even know how I'm going to keep up with this demand," he muttered, running a hand through his hair.
"You will. I have made sure that you have enough staff to keep up with the demand," I assured him. "Just make sure you enjoy this mont. It doesn't happen every day."
"It's all thanks to you, Eve," Hyun said, gently taking my hand in his. His usual baby features softened even more, and he bead at with a genuine, almost childlike smile.
I was montarily caught off guard. There was sothing so sincere and endearing about his expression that it made forget where we were for a second.
I cleared my throat, trying to regain my composure. "I just made the investnt, Hyun. The real magic cos from you. You've got talent, and I'm the one who should be thanking you for sharing it with the world."
Hyun's smile widened, a flicker of relief in his eyes as if he needed to hear those words.
"Listen," I continued, leaning back in my chair. "For now, let the hype build. The dia is buzzing, and everyone's talking about you. Play it cool and let the curiosity grow. The more elusive you seem, the higher your value becos. People love a bit of mystery—they want what they can't easily have."
Hyun nodded, absorbing my advice. He looked both excited and a little overwheld by the sudden wave of success.
"I'll have Claire handle your schedule for the next few weeks," I added. "She'll filter out who you et and where you go. That way, you can focus on your designs without worrying about managing all the requests pouring in. Just take a deep breath and enjoy the ride; you've earned it."
Hyun exhaled, his shoulders visibly relaxing. "Thank you, Eve. I couldn't have done this without your support."
I just smiled, giving his hand a light squeeze. "Trust , Hyun. This is only the beginning."
It was a success worth celebrating, and I knew just the place for it.
A couple of hours later, we found ourselves at Shinsei, one of my restaurant investnts known for its exquisite sushi.
The atmosphere was calm yet buzzing with just the right amount of energy. The soft lighting, combined with the hum of conversations and the delicate clink of glasses, made it the perfect setting to mark this achievent.
As we sat down at our reserved table, the head chef personally ca out to greet us, bowing respectfully before presenting us with a special selection of the finest sushi they had to offer.
The staff knew I was a frequent visitor, but today felt different. They seed to sense the celebratory mood, treating us with extra attention as we clinked our glasses of chilled sake together.
"To Hyun's phenonal success," I said, raising my glass. Hyun's eyes sparkled with a mix of gratitude and pride as he clinked his glass against mine.
"Thank you," he said softly. "I really couldn't have done this without you."
I shook my head, waving off his words. "This is all you. Your talent, your vision. I just gave you the platform to showcase it."
As we savored the fresh, lt-in-your-mouth pieces of toro and uni, I couldn't help but check my phone. Sure enough, the buzz was still going strong.
Notifications about Hyun's designs were flooding my feed. It was almost amusing to see how quickly money grows with the right cheat and timing.
