The designers surrounding her also followed. Jocelyn glanced at her and said lightly, “Okay, what advice are you going to give me, Miss Rothschild?”
Bella covered her lips and chuckled. Her voice sounded so pretentious that Jocelyn got goosebumps. “Miss White, don’t say that. I can’t give you any advice. You got an allergic reaction during the competition yesterday, but you still insisted on finishing the design draft. I admire you so much! By the way, how is your body?” She heard that Jocelyn had won the Century Jewelry Competition before, so she wanted to praise Jocelyn while disparaging others. She thought that even though Jocelyn braced herself and finished the competition in a commendable manner even if she had an allergic reaction yesterday, she still would not win the competition.
She was the most likely to win among this group of people. In front of Jocelyn, who was slightly famous before, Bella suddenly had a huge sense of superiority.
Jocelyn glanced at her but did not expose what she was thinking. Her tone was neither humble nor arrogant when she said, “Thank you for your concern, I am much better now.”
When Bella saw the reporter taking a photo, she immediately took Jocelyn’s hand affectionately, and said with a smile, “Miss White, I know you are very talented. You have won the Century Jewelry Competition before, but you have encountered a special circumstance this time. So, don’t worry too much, it’s just a competition. If you can’t win this time, you can try again next time.”
Bella was behaving like she had the trophy in her bag. Jocelyn was not used to being so close to strangers. Therefore, she pulled her hand away stiffly from Bella’s.
After hearing what Bella said, everyone was in an uproar. “No way, Jocelyn won the Century Jewelry Competition award!” “Gosh, you’ve utterly embarrassed yourself this time. Bella had a crushing defeat
against
you!”
“You can’t say that, after all, she had an allergic reaction.”
“Maybe that’s just an antic. Who can finish drawing their design draft after they get an allergic reaction, I don’t believe her.”
Everyone was discussing among themselves. When Bella saw that she had reached her goal, she was smiling brightly.
She even came forward and said something to help Jocelyn, “Don’t say nonsense. Miss White is sick this time, so she didn’t do her best. Don’t just speak without thinking.”
“Bella, you’re too kind. You’re even helping her.”
“Bella is so nice and she’s so talented.”
“Maybe Jocelyn deliberately gave herself the allergic reaction as a way out since she knew she couldn’t win, and she didn’t want to lose face.”
“Bella was even helping her when she’s doing that. What an angel!” This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
Jocelyn was not blind or deaf so she could see and hear clearly. However, she stood at one side coldly and did not speak. Lexie looked at everyone, a look of disgust flashed in her eyes. Her expression was also filled with displeasure.
She could not take it anymore and was about to fly into a fit of rage but was stopped by Jocelyn.
Jocelyn glanced at her and shook her head slightly.
Lexie’s eyes flashed and she glanced coldly at the nosey group of designers. Her eyes were frigid.
Before the party started, both Bella’s character and influence received praise.
She looked like she was on cloud nine and she would start floating on air soon.
At ten o’clock, the party started on time. The host came to the stage. “Hello everyone, all the designers have come from afar to participate in the Greene City Ocean Heart Jewelry Competition. In order to welcome everyone, the organizer specially held today’s party and is planning to announce the winners at the party today.” The crowd looked expectant. The host chuckled. “I know you can’t wait to know the result. Alright, I won’t keep you on the hook. Before the party starts, I will satisfy everyone’s curiosity, okay?” “Okay!” The voices of the people at the party were scraggly, but their answers were surprisingly consistent. The host smiled. “First of all, let’s announce the third place, Peggy Schuman from Cloud City and also…”
Three people got third place. The winners were overjoyed and the ones whose names had not been called were praying internally, hoping that they would be on the list for the second place.
The host continued to read the list of winners, and two people got second place. Now, the designers who did not win anything looked dejected and disappointed.
There was only one first place spot and it was also the champion of the competition.
The host kept everyone on the hook. “Why don’t you all guess who will win the first place this
time?”
As soon as the host finished speaking, several designers surrounding Bella shouted one after another, “Bella!”
The host looked down at the name on the card and his expression was distorted for a moment.
He raised his head again and his expression returned to its natural state. He smiled and said, “Next, please congratulate the champion of Greene City Ocean Heart Jewelry Competition, Miss Jocelyn White from Mauve City. Everyone, please give her a round of applause!”
