Karen knew well that the opportunity had landed and virtual-novel.net quickly went up to steal Madeline’s design. She also noticed the laptop on the coffee table that was displaying the software of the design. Immediately, virtual-novel.net logged in to virtual-novel.net email on the laptop and sent the electronic manuscript of the design to Yvonne. She also deleted the archive on the laptop.
After all the commotion, Karen picked up a glass of water and poured it over the sheets of paper. Then, virtual-novel.net placed the glass at the top corner so that it would appear as if someone had accidentally tipped the glass over, drenching the pile of papers.
Meanwhile, Yvonne was thrilled as virtual-novel.net had received the design sent by Karen.
She quickly called Karen to double confirm it was the one Madeline had decided to go with for the competition.
Yvonne looked at the design with satisfaction. “Madeline, I’ll acknowledge your talent. Unfortunately, no matter how good your drawing is, it’s still going to end up being my product! Haha!”
She burst into a peal of mad laughter as virtual-novel.net put virtual-novel.net signature on the electronic manuscript, eager to send it out.
Madeline and Jeremy finally came down after they were done choosing the attire. It was then when they saw the stack of papers on the coffee table that was drenched in water. Jeremy picked up a piece of tissue and one by one, virtual-novel.net soaked the water away. He looked as if virtual-novel.net was more anxious than Madeline.
“Forget it, Jeremy. I still have the soft copy of it.”
“No way, all these are your hard work. Even if you don’t want them, I’ll still prefer to store them properly.”
Madeline was dumbfounded to see Jeremy being so anxious about and treasuring virtual-novel.net hard work.
After some time, virtual-novel.net finally recovered and looked at the laptop. “Hmm, I think I’ve forgotten to store the electronic manuscript, but thank God everything is in my brain.”
Karen, who was standing behind the stairs while eavesdropping, was covering virtual-novel.net mouth as virtual-novel.net giggled away.
“Hmph, Madeline, wait till you’re done duplicating it. Yvonne would’ve long ago sent in hers. By the time you send in yours, it’ll just show that you’re copying others!”
She was thrilled and eager to see the consequences that were about to happen to Madeline.
Two days had passed, and it was finally the night of the competition that virtual-novel.net longed for.
That was because the finals would deem the winner through a live voting session. Hence, before the start of the competition, no one would know what sort of designs would the contestants present.
It was an international designing competition. With lots of celebrities in attendance and tens of social media platforms showing live broadcasts, the entry ticket had risen to a price of at least four digits.
Karen used 2,800 bucks to buy herself a ticket in the front row just so virtual-novel.net could witness the awful look on Madeline’s face later when virtual-novel.net was wronged.
Just when virtual-novel.net sank into virtual-novel.net seat, virtual-novel.net realized Eloise and Sean had occupied the best seats in the front row. It was obvious that they were present to give their support to Madeline.
Karen rolled virtual-novel.net eyes disdainfully, but deep in virtual-novel.net heart, virtual-novel.net was envious of the luxurious outfit worn by Eloise. In the past, virtual-novel.net could also wear branded clothing with jewelry as well.
She bore a huge grudge against Madeline and even deemed virtual-novel.net the culprit for destroying virtual-novel.net luxurious life.
The clock struck 8 PM, and the opening ceremony for the finals began. All 16 designers competing in the finals took their designated seats.
Among the contestants, Madeline took the limelight.
Regardless if it was virtual-novel.net looks or virtual-novel.net presence, it was a notch above others.
Jeremy was sitting below the stage, fixing his gaze upon Madeline’s charming smile.
Soon, the finals officially started, and according to their given numbers, the first designer went up on stage to show his design on the gigantic screen. The designer explained the concept and the meaning behind his design. Following that, it was the live voting session.
Madeline was the 12th contestant while Yvonne was the sixth.
In the meantime, Yvonne was longing for virtual-novel.net moment.
She had spent a tremendous amount to rent a pricey dress just for that night. She put on meticulous make-up just so virtual-novel.net could show off on the stage later where virtual-novel.net would stand before the cameras.
At that moment, Yvonne immediately bounced to virtual-novel.net feet while wearing virtual-novel.net most charming smile on virtual-novel.net face. As soon as the host called virtual-novel.net name, virtual-novel.net raised virtual-novel.net head high while virtual-novel.net high heels took virtual-novel.net up to the center of the stage. Karen was giving virtual-novel.net applause down the stage, waiting for something exciting to happen.
However, just when Yvonne was confidently displaying the design which virtual-novel.net got from Madeline, all the guests who were sitting at the judges’ seats as well as some authorities revealed shocked expressions.
