She thought she could get in Natalie's way by procuring Hannah's aid. Unfortunately, the wasn't the case. Instead,
she was the only one who was adversely impacted.
Urgh! This is so annoying! I shouldn't have paired up with her in the first place!
Natalie had a great time gloating over Jessie's misfortune when she caught the woman next to her with her
expression darkened in the pitch-black hall.
In the end, Jessie got up from her seat and announced, “I'll be excusing myself, Ms. Smith. I need to use the
restroom.”
“Sure!” Natalie answered with a nod and smirked while staring at Jessie's departing figure.
The restroom? Are you sure you're not heading backstage to teach Hannah a lesson? Well, whatever it is, it's none
of my business!
She shook her head and shrugged the things off her mind. Seconds after she snapped out the train of thoughts, she
continued enjoying the show.
Half an hour later, the show came to an end. All of the models returned to the runway for the judging section of the
show.
Although Sally was nowhere close to the front, she was in a strategic position. She stood out amongst her peers
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwith the dress she had put on and her confidence.
The judges brought their notebooks along with them and started evaluating the pieces one after another.
After pacing back and forth for a short while, the judges gathered around in an attempt to figure out a proper way
to classify the participants.
The designers, including Natalie, were anxious in anticipation of the announcement. They couldn't wait to know
which team they would be assigned to.
It took the judges a short while to have everything sorted out. Once they were done, they handed over the results
to the host of the show.
The host started announcing the results and classified the designers into six teams that ranged from Team F to
Team A.
When Natalie found out she wasn't on the list of Team F to Team B, she let out a long sigh of relief and beamed in
satisfaction. She was confident she was a member of Team A.
Soon enough, Natalie found out she was a member of Team A as soon as the host carried on with his
announcement.
She clasped her fingers together in excitement. Suddenly, Jessie, who was next to Natalie, congratulated, “You have
done a great job, Ms. Smith.”
Natalie was well aware that it was just another sarcastic remark from Jessie. Nonetheless, she answered with a
bright grin, “Thanks! Congratulations to you too, Ms. Syke!”
Why is she congratulating me when I have been assigned to Team B? What the heck? Is she making fun of me?
Jessie's hands balled into fists at that thought. She felt a strong urge to take Natalie out, but she had to keep those
to herself.
In the end, the woman reverted with a pretentious smile, “Thanks, Ms. Smith! Unfortunately, we won't get to
compete against one another in the upcoming round! It's such a shame that I have failed to perform up to
expectation!”
Natalie ran her fingers through her hair and remarked, “It's not a big deal, Ms. Syke! After all, you'll get to join me in
Team A if you do well in the upcoming round. Speaking of which, try to stay ahead of others if you wish to stay in
the race.”
A total of two members from each team would be eliminated in the upcoming rounds. In other words, the designers
could climb their way up the ranks by taking the unoccupied slots of the superior teams.
The two best performers from Team B would join those in Team A while the rest of the teams would climb their way
up the rank in a similar manner.
In short, Jessie might be able to join Natalie in Team A as long as she's able to make the cut and prevent herself
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmfrom being eliminated.
Smiling, Jessie asserted, “I'll make sure to keep that in mind, Ms. Smith.”
“Only a mere few is a match for you when it comes to design. However, you seem to be having a hard time
producing your design. If you're willing to work hard, I'm sure you can overcome your shortcomings in no time.”
Jessie's eyes flickered when she heard Natalie. “I guess you're right, Ms. Smith.”
The moment Natalie saw Sally approaching her, she announced, “Alright, Ms. Syke! It's time for dinner! I guess I'll
see you again in the near future!”
Jessie answered with a curt nod, “See you soon.”
Staring at the departing Natalie, Jessie's heart sank to the bottom of her heart.
Why did she bring up something about my design and skills? Has she linked the missing pieces of puzzles together?
Is that possible when I have gone to great lengths to adapt to brand new styles? Who's going to pay attention to
those details in the first place?
Am I overthinking things again? She's just pointing that thing out because of my subpar skills, isn't she?
On the other hand, after Sally rendezvoused with Natalie, she showed her the stack of name cards she had with
her.
Unable to contain her excitement, she exclaimed, “Nat, look! So many designers and those from the industry have
given me their name cards!”
