When Lucy heard the participant praising Natalie and Lina, she clenched her fists as her expression darkened.
However, she thought of something after a while and asked the participant, “Hold on. Did you say that Ms. Natalie
and Ms. Cohen belong to the same team?”
“That's right.” The participant nodded. “Don't you know that? The arrangements of the teams are posted on the
notice board. They are on the same team. In fact, they are very close friends.”
Friends!
Lucy's expression changed at once.
I can't believe Ms. Cohen and Natalie are actually friends.
Earlier on, she thought that Lina was concerned about her being nervous, and that was why the latter advised her
to quit the competition. However, after knowing about Lina's relationship with Natalie, she knew that was not the
case.
Why would a friend of Natalie's be concerned about me?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFurthermore, Natalie would have told her friend about my identity, so there is no way Ms. Cohen would have a good
impression of me.
When Ms. Cohen asked me to quit the competition and warned me that I would regret it in the future if I did not do
so, she was not merely talking about the competition and certainly did not do it out of concern for me.
It seems that Natalie and Ms. Cohen are ganging up on me. If I don't quit now, they will intimidate me until I have
no choice but to remove myself from the competition. When that happens, I will be utterly embarrassed. By then, I
will regret it, won't I?
With that thought in mind, Lucy started trembling with anger as she stared daggers at Natalie and Lina.
When the participant saw the vicious look in her eyes, she became frightened and shut her mouth.
God! This Lucy is so scary. She looks as if she is going to gobble someone up.
Looking at the hateful way she's glaring at Ms. Smith and Ms. Cohen, is it possible that she has some grudges
against them?
The participant bit her lip and could not figure out the issue among the three of them. Nevertheless, she decided to
stay away from Lucy.
Lucy was unpredictable and volatile. To top it off, she was incapable of hiding her emotions. As far as the participant
was concerned, Lucy was not someone she wanted to be friends with.
On the judges' panel, Lina found Lucy's design.
Initially, Lina was pretty sure that Lucy would not be able to come up with any design out of guilt and panic.
Unexpectedly, she found that Lucy actually managed to produce a decent design.
However, there seemed to be a trace of incoherence in her design.
“Nat, take a look at this.” Lina handed Lucy's design to Natalie.
Natalie put down another designer's work and looked at Lucy's. A look of surprise flashed across her eyes. “This
was done by Lucy?”
“Yes. It's not bad at all,” commented Lina as she pointed at the black dress.
Natalie nodded in agreement. “You're right, but it doesn't seem to gel together.”
“True.” Lina nodded when she heard Natalie's remark. “At first glance, I found it decent, but upon closer inspection,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI sensed a lack of congruity in the design. Then again, I'm not a costume designer, so I can't really tell what the
problem is. Nat, tell me. What's going on here?”
“It's easy. She has basically taken the various parts from other designs and put them together.” Natalie sneered as
she put down Lucy's design. She pointed at the sleeves and said, “These chiffon sleeves are designed by John. I
have seen them in a magazine before. As for the collar, it's designed by me. Tina is the one who designed the waist
area.”
When Lina finally understood what was going on, she rolled her eyes. “Oh my! She has combined several designs
from various designers. No wonder the whole design doesn't seem to go together. I take my hat off to her. I can't
believe she has the audacity to plagiarize and combine other people's designs and pass them off as hers. I'm
speechless.”
Natalie said sarcastically, “She has no other choice since she has no design in mind that suits the required style this
time around. If she doesn't do this, she won't be able to come up with a design. Should she try to copy someone
else's design, she may get caught. That's why she had to combine bits and pieces of other designs to pass this
round.”
Lina sighed and said, “Although I want to eliminate her, it's not possible because this is a non-elimination round. We
have no choice but to keep her for now.”
