Chapter 71 Bmitey looked at Charmine fretfully; she was overwhelmed with anxiety.
What was Charmineâs plan? Could she turn water into wine? This was next to impossible.
Meanwhile, Tiffany was seated on a flamingo, a sweet smile adorning her face as she did. She looked like an ethereal fairy, protected and unaware of the ongoings around her.
The avocado green and pink-colored flamingos made a perfect match. The combination looked so aesthetically pleasing that one could almost forget about the midsummer heat. 1 In contrast, Charmineâs large red top paired with a loose-fitting skirt kept her covered up tightly. Both her chest and legs could not be seen. How could she best Tiffany at this rate?
Everyone present was curious, but the nonchalant Charmine merely turned to ask Tiffany, âAre you sure you want to sit there i n this manner? Wonât you regret it?â 1 âYes. Why not? Canât you think of any poses to match mine?â Tiffany replied.
Though it was not so obvious, Tiffanyâs reply was laced with sarcasm. 1 Hmph. Was this even a challenge? Charmine merely sighed and held her tongue. She swung her legs over the same flamingo and sat right behind Tiffany.
Although the flamingo was laying horizontally, Charmine could not spread her legs as wide as Tiffany did. After all, her long skirt was clipped between her thighs and she gave off a stuffy image.
It looked like Charmine would lose this time. The crowd sighed. 1 Unexpectedly, Charmine reached out and held Tiffanyâs shoulders. Face entirely stoic yet elegant, she shifted her weight toward that hand. Somehow, she managed to do this in a graceful and elegant manner.
The crowd was astounded. Charmineâs pose basically turned Tiffany into a mere coffee table! 1 What a move!
Charmine looked at the crowd and said, â Letâs shoot.â
The cameraman regained his senses and immediately adjusted his viewfinder. Once h e pointed his lens at the pair, he started the shoot.
Veronica had thought of stepping in, but after she considered the facts at hand, she decided against it.
No matter what pose Charmine would strike, the dress she had on still looked complicated and heavy.
There were layers and layers of mesh and netting;
who would buy this dress?
Charmineâs expressions were outstandingly captivating, but Tiffany was doing just as great and was classically attractive. Furthermore, the contest was to compare who would rake up more sales for their collection. How could Charmine even stand a chance? 1 It was because of this reasoning that Veronica decided to stand down.
âLetâs start!â piped the photographer. â Ladies, please give me your best poses.â 1 With that said, he prepared himself to click his shutter.
In a split second, Charmine used her other hand to flip back the heavy fabric of her dress.
As the shutter clicked, the moment was frozen in time!
The photo showed Charmineâs body leaning toward the âcoffee tableâ, while her face leaned on her other fair-skinned hand as she looked into the camera boldly and haughtily.
Her clothes were heavy, thick, shapeless, and ugly, but she made it look like a million dollars. 1 The best part was that her skirt was blown backward, and it mimicked movement that only a giant gust of wind could create. The aura she emitted was grandiose; she looked stunning!
The photographer looked at the shots and exclaimed, âPerfect! Perfect! Perfect!â
Nobody would have imagined that a model could turn such a situation to her favor and achieve a desirable outcome!
As she sat in front of Charmine, Tiffany could not see what Charmine had done.
She assumed the photographerâs praises were for her.
After all, she had given it everything she got.
âWas that good?â she asked coyly. âDo you need another shot?â
