Aurora kept trying to talk herself out of it in her mind.
Megan, seeing how weighed down Aurora looked, suddenly burst out laughing and gave her a hard slap on the back. “Alright, stop looking so gloomy.
“Maybe Mr. Lewis really does value your ability, that’s why he wants to work with you. Besides, you’re talented enough–it’s not impossible.”
Aurora stumbled from the force of the slap.
Megan’s strength seemed to have grown again lately.
Afterward, Megan stared blankly at her own hand, as if realizing too late.
“Can’t be, right? I only patted you lightly.”
Aurora let out a cold laugh. “With strength like that, why don’t you try weightlifting?”
Megan looked a little guilty.
Then she leaned closer to Aurora. “Okay, fine. I just wanted to lighten the mood. My thought is, since the project’s already ours, we should focus on doing it well and stop overthinking.
“Even if you dwell on it, it won’t prepare you for everything anyway.”
Aurora studied Megan’s rare serious expression, running her words through her mind. She had to admit, it made a lot of sense.
Megan was right–sitting here worrying solved nothing and brought no benefit.
Better to spend that energy figuring out how to deliver the project well and attract even bigger clients.
“Alright, I’ll listen to you!”
Aurora’s smile returned.
Soon, news of Daniel signing the contract with Aurora spread across the internet.
Daniel also posted the announcement on the official site.
[Thrilled to be working with Miss Walton’s Frost & Clear Studio. From here on, we’ll walk side by side into the future. The Southside land project is officially entrusted to you. With you, I feel assured- @Frost&ClearStudio.]
He even tagged Aurora’s studio at the end.
Daniel’s move brought a surge of exposure to Aurora’s studio.
Many heavyweights in the industry turned their attention toward the small team.

After all, Daniel was a well–known figure in the business world, and instead of working with one of the big established firms, he had chosen a studio that had only just been founded.
That alone stirred plenty of curiosity.
But once they saw the name “Aurora Walton,” their surprise faded.
Her achievements at the Walton Corporation had been plain for all to see.
At first, many had thought she was joking when she said she was striking out on her own. Yet barely half a month later, she already had her own studio.
Plenty of people were watching from the sidelines, waiting to see how long her venture would last.
Now, this project was the true test of Aurora’s abilities.
And she knew it well–she understood just how crucial it was.
Since Daniel had chosen to place his trust in her, she was determined not to let him down.
Aurora sent message after message assuring Daniel of her commitment.
Daniel, in turn, expressed his full confidence in her.
Though privately, he couldn’t help but think–with Lucas backing her, he had nothing to worry about anyway.
