To assuage any doubts Rosalynn may have regarding Maggie's skills, Kaliyah reassured her, “Rest assured, just last month, one of her designs stole the spotlight at an international bridal show, earning her the coveted title of best designer. Today, she boasts a clientele spanning across the globe, from A-list celebrities to everyday dreamers."

As Rosalynn absorbed the news, she cast another glance at Maggie, whose modest smile triggered a moment of introspection.

She recalled Maggie's parting words, relayed through Karl, about embarking on a journey of learning, self-improvement, and eventual return.

Truly, Maggie had carved her niche in the world of bridal design, hadn't she?

"Maggie, with your remarkable success, how could I possibly object? I'd be honored to have you design my gown," Rosalynn declared with a smile.

"Deal," Maggie agreed, her smile radiant.

Glancing at the time, Kaliyah instructed, "Please take good care of Ms. Fuller. I must visit an old friend to discuss opening a new branch."

“Of course, you can count on me," Angie assured as she watched Kaliyah leave.

Rosalynn reached for Maggie's hand, inspecting her closely. "Let me get another glimpse of you," she insisted.

Maggie obliged, twirling gracefully, her smile infectious. “Rosalynn, I haven't changed. Still, that girl who admires you."

Rosalynn chuckled. “Who says you haven't changed? Now it's my turn to admire you. You've skyrocketed to fame as a bridal gown designer, haven't you?"

“Oh, Rosalynn, quit teasing," Maggie protested. I'm just a small-time designer. But you? You've astounded me once more. So, you're the mastermind behind that TV drama script being filmed now, right?"

Having seen the promotional posters, Maggie held Rosalynn in high esteem.

Rosalynn laughed, brushing off the praise. “I'm merely passing the time, really."

Maggie teased, “Hey, Rosalynn, playing the modest card doesn't really suit you."

"Ah well, I suppose it's fine," Rosalynn replied with a hint of jest in her voice.

After a lighthearted exchange of banter, Maggie got down to business, presenting her collection of bridal gown samples.

"These are the designs I've been working on. Take a look and feel free to share any thoughts."

As Rosalynn perused the catalog, she marveled at the intricate designs of each bridal gown, each one a masterpiece in its own right.

Being a designer herself, though not in the realm of bridal wear, her discerning taste compelled her to appreciate them nonetheless.
