I didnt like this design

I didn't like this design is what most of us as architect s must have heard once in a lifetime for sure.
How did you react? What comes to one's mind is very important how the project outcome shall twist. I shall share my experience for once.
We met a client who wanted his house design done from us, which was a medium size house n client comes from a corporate background. He mentioned to us that he would like to have a design which reminds him of his home ground, Kerala! We tried figuring out a design as the plan was pretty approved from municipality when it had come to us as the earlier architect failed to meet his demands. We did work and show him a design. When we also mentioned that please have a free mind to accept the outcome of design as we had restrictions due to approved municipal drawing ! He tried figuring out and then said "oh well its not come out well, OK I shall go with your idea of trying another option which can be a free design as you say!".
We did another option after much confirming with the order of the design to achieve with relevant features!
Well what outcome we got was approved by his wife and he was still like need much something added to it....what was to follow was more fun!
We had just wrapped up from the meeting and as the client left we had another client visiting us for his house requirement! It so happened that the earlier client' design 3D was open....this client peeped and said wow , whose house must be a lucky person! I just smiled at the thought of it!
Well today as I write this the client has left us and the project went halfway with us till part RCC was done and his father in law has popped in saying he can get the design more economical, faster delivery and hence we were stopped from going ahead. Their father in law went back to the earlier architect got rectification done got hold of a labour in charge and has commenced work!
God be with them to see what chaos and what instability they are causing to the skeleton where its broken remade broken remade !!
