Chapter 56 Disqualified From the Competition That world-renowned fashion designer is a judge in this competition?! Oh, my God! We thought Angel would be a blond, blue-
eyed beauty from overseas! Instead, she turned out to be a citizen of Criecia! Haha! This is getting interesting! To think that Anna Maxwell plagiarized Angelâs designs and even had the audacity to claim that her sister prevented her from joining the competition because she was afraid of her talents. What sort of joke is this?
All those who were still dubious of Oliviaâs words just now immediately changed their perception of her as soon as her identity was revealed. Angel was a world-renowned fashion designer. Thus, it simply wasnât worth her time to pick on a small-time designer, unless that designer stepped on her toes!
Even Eugene had a shocked expression on his face at that moment. Sheâs the world-renowned fashion designer, Angel! I canât believe I rejected Angel when she came looking for a job at my company! Then, he rubbed his pounding head. Itâs too late now!
On the other hand, Anna looked like she was in shock. One couldnât tell whether her eyes held more fear or disbelief in them;
perhaps, it was a mixture of both.
How is this possible? How can she be Angel? The Angel that Iâve always admired and always wanted to receive advice from?
That Angel? How is that possible? Right now, even if Olivia doesnât bring out those designs, the audience is already on Oliviaâs side. They wonât believe me anymore! What do I do? Itâs over now!
Just then, Olivia received the photos from Kate. It was a photo of the four best friends together in universityâeach wearing the outfits from the four gentlemen of the seasonsâ collection that she had designedâstanding at the entrance of the university.
There was also another photo of Kate wearing her bamboo-themed evening dress. It looked like she had just taken it. Compared to seven years ago, it gave off a more mature charm.
Olivia looked toward the audience. âThis collection is a previous design I created seven years ago. For it to appear here is, honestly, a shock to me. Iâm also very angry about it. This isnât just about the matter of plagiarism; it has also ruined the original meaning behind why I designed these four evening dresses for me and my best friends back then. I designed them because I wanted us to have one-of-a-kind dresses! They represented how I viewed my best friends in my heartâthey were unique and irreplaceable! Unfortunately, my creation, in all its originality, was copied and displayed on the screen, right under my nose! If I wasnât a judge at this competition, wouldnât these designs be mass-produced for the public? If I didnât have the evidence to prove that these creations were mine, wouldnât I have been painted as a terrible and vicious sister who picked on her sister? Not every weak-looking person is harmless; they could turn out to be a pretentious b*tch setting up a trap to take down the strong! A so-
called original creation is original because it is one-of-a-kind! Itâs not enough to pull underhanded tricks behind the scenes and put on a pathetic display while crying! Donât participate in this competition if you donât have the ability to do so!â
At that moment, nobody dared to say that Olivia was picking on others anymore.
After all, what she said was true. It was a competition. One should bring out the best of their abilities when participating in a competition. If one didnât have those abilities, then they shouldnât participate and end up making a fool of themselves!
Annaâs face was pale. There was no way for her to disprove those pictures. Moreover, the looks from the audience were like knives stabbing into her heart. I never imagined things would turn south so badly! If I knew this was going to happen, I wouldnât have stolen Oliviaâs designs. But, how could I have known that Olivia is Angel?!
Thus, Anna hurriedly fled off stage, and the grand competition naturally disqualified. Compared to the number of people she shamed, she got off pretty easily!
Following that, the grand competitionâs program crew apologized to Olivia. Even so, Olivia wasnât bothered. She knew exactly what was going on with Anna.
After the event, she saw Eugene waiting for her. Then, she walked over to him apologetically. âIâm sorry for making you suffer an unfair accusation with me today.â
Eugene laughed. âNo problem, Angel.â
Upon hearing that, Olivia lowered her head and laughed lightly too. âNot many know me by that name.â
Eugene took a deep breath and woefully said, âIf you had used that name when you came to the company, you wouldnât even have needed to go through an interview! And, I wouldnât have lost the opportunity to gain a world-renowned fashion designer under my wing because of a misunderstanding!â
