She casually found her place and settled down. The designers sitting beside her visibly soured, deliberately creating distance with a cold snort.
Unfazed, Kate relaxed into her seat before sweeping over the entire venue with a cool gaze.
The finals of the International Design Competition held a prestigious reputation; the organizers had secured Starlight Tower exclusively for the event, and the entire floor was lavishly prepared for the occasion.
