Chapter 156: Chapter 156 Limited Edition Runway Model
Evelyn Curtis was now at a dead end; she couldn’t stop Charlotte Thompson from wearing an identical outfit.
If she tried to forcibly intervene and caused a scene, the crowd around them might leak the information, and her attempts to bully the weak might backfire and cause her more harm.
"Fine, since you insist, it doesn’t count as wearing the same outfit; suit yourself," said Evelyn, suppressing her anger.
She stormed off, feeling incredibly bitter inside.
She sat in her dressing room, feeling as if a flame was burning in her chest, knitting her brows in anguish.
"Evelyn, you should touch up your makeup, the competition is about to start."
Seeing her like this, Lucy cautiously suggested it.
Evelyn closed her eyes, allowed the makeup artist to touch up her makeup, but clenching her fists tightly.
Once her makeup was done, a realization struck her when she opened her eyes.
"Lucy, the dress I’m wearing is a limited runway edition from BK brand. How could Charlotte, a mere jewelry designer, have a dress like this?"
Lucy, having seen this kind of thing before, naturally replied, "Evelyn, her dress must be a fake clone. It’s obvious even if you give it a passing thought."
Evelyn snorted coldly, then burst out laughing.
She had been so incensed by Charlotte that it seemed to have clouded her judgment. She was only annoyed that Charlotte copied her dress and didn’t even think about the possibility that it was a knockoff.
"Let Charlotte gloat for now. Lucy, go contact the program’s cameramen and tell them to focus more on Charlotte’s dress hem," Evelyn instructed in Lucy’s ear.
In today’s era, there are plenty of sharp-eyed netizens; once they notice anything suspicious, they’ll certainly stir up noise online.
The netizens are not to be underestimated either. When they start to criticize someone, they can insult someone up and down their entire ancestral lineage.
Daring to blatantly wear a fake dress, and a fake BK dress at that, Charlotte truly has thick skin!
Evelyn’s pupils sank slightly, and the smile around her lips gave a creepy feeling.
"Charlotte, I don’t believe that you, a minor jewelry designer, can withstand the internet’s scolding. I want to see what kind of storm your arrogant attitude can stir up!"
Evelyn pledged, waiting for Charlotte to make a fool of herself.
...
The competition kicked into gear soon.
The scene at the competition was packed with people.
Except for a small portion of the audience, most were Evelyn’s fans who came to support her.
After the host’s opening speech, the theme of the jewelry design was announced: Dream--
Dream.
As this was a live contest organized by Vanguard Jewelry, with top actress Evelyn Curtis sitting on the panel, the number of viewers in the live broadcast was enormous.
The jewelry designers went up to the stage one after another after their names were called, picked up crayons, paper, and other materials, then sat in the positions corresponding to their names to prepare for their sketches.
There were dozens of cameras on-site, each focusing on a designer and capturing the atmosphere.
The live broadcast was in full swing.
Whenever the camera focused on Evelyn, comments like "Evelyn rules!" filled up the screen.
Others were saying, "Brave Dream, loyal fans will always accompany you."
Dream Watson is the fan name for Evelyn.
Some even started explaining the reason of choosing Dream as a theme in the comment section.
"This competition is hosted by Vanguard Jewelry, and Justin Battleson is the CEO of Riley Group, the theme is Dream, so it’s definitely set for our darling Dream."
"Ah! These hidden flirtatious signals! I’ll eat first to support them!"
"My God! They’re so cute together!"
"They’re the perfect match; a gifted scholar, and a beautiful lady!"
