Charlotte Thompson didn’t let this throw her off, she kept looking at the jewelry.
Racking her brain for new combinations, she sought something that would make the audience’s eyes light up.
Her eyes fell on a pair of shining white shells, and Charlotte had a new idea. She was going to take a different path.
Gems indeed showcased elegance, but it seemed no one had considered whether everyone could afford them.
If she used shells, the cost and price would decrease.
Now having an idea, her actions gained speed, and she started polishing the shell by hand.
On the stage, Charlotte’s focused gaze treated it like a treasure rather than just a shell.
Meanwhile, Evelyn Curtis was staring unblinkingly at Charlotte on stage, as if fixated on prey.
Thoughts uncontrollably raced in her mind.
This woman, Charlotte, was too odd—could it be she attracted attention only because she looked like Sophie Allen?
After much thought, she still felt something off about Charlotte. Why did the massive brand BK go out of its way to defend Charlotte at every turn?
Just before the second round of the competition started, BK published another Weibo post supporting Charlotte.
[We see Ms. Charlotte Thompson’s abilities and hope to cooperate with her after she triumphs in this competition. We will express our utmost sincerity.]
The words affirmed Charlotte’s abilities and expressed firm belief in her ability to win the competition.
The post quickly drew public attention and once again put Charlotte in the spotlight.
Who didn’t know the BK brand? When had they ever publicly requested a collaboration?
"True gold does shine indeed. BK really cashed in on this one."
"I’m in love with Charlotte’s works. Hurry up with the collaboration, I’m a guaranteed buyer!"
Nobody questioned Charlotte’s ability, on the contrary, they’re looking forward to her future.
Some people even started watching the show through BK’s Weibo post, curious to find out who this designer being singled out by BK was.
Upon seeing the Weibo post, Evelyn nearly crushed her phone in her hand. Why was BK favoring her?!
Lucy watched her phone get crushed in Evelyn’s hand and felt her heart ache; it was Evelyn’s second destroyed phone.
"Research it for me. I want to know why BK pays so much attention to her," demanded Evelyn.
She almost ground her back teeth to a pulp, the jealousy in her eyes flaring up.
Evelyn had tried to collaborate with BK before, but they hadn’t even bothered to respond to her.
Yet now Charlotte had drawn all of BK’s attention, which made Evelyn feel more unbalanced. ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ N()velFire.net
She couldn’t let Charlotte have what she herself couldn’t.
Frustration was taken out on Lucy, who didn’t dare to retort, only nodding in response.
Lucy was at a loss. How could she find out why? To her, Charlotte appeared to be an ordinary person.
Maybe BK was genuinely attracted by Charlotte’s works, but Evelyn didn’t want to admit it.
"Charlotte Thompson is Joy, a top jewelry designer in Ashton. I never thought she’d participate in Druarus’s jewelry competition," said a supposed insider on the live stream about her dual identity.
Once the reveal was made, it shocked everyone.
Joy’s die-hard fans flocked to the live stream upon receiving the news, hoping to get a glimpse.
Joy had always been low-profile, never appearing in public. Everyone knew the name, but nobody knew what she looked like.
The surge of viewers made the server somewhat laggy, but the number of people watching kept rising.
After the revealing information, even those who didn’t know her started search about Joy.
