They kept themselves updated with the drama online and discussed it among themselves.
Some of them grew impatient and urged the organizer to hurry up.
Out of a sudden, someone said, “Ms. X is here.”
Everyone went silent and turned their heads towards the entrance.
A tall and lean figure greeted the eyes of the crowd.
The gown was made of violet see-through lace with a tube top dress as innerwear. It was sexy, yet graceful.
She walked with authority as the train of her cloak floated with the breeze.
The dress was adorned with tiny violet and white rhinestones in an asymmetrical arrangement. The designer paid attention to each detail, even the coat and hem of the skirt had elegant rhinestones hand-sewn upon them.
The luxurious tiny rhinestones sparkle under the spotlight.
It was a heavenly sight.
She looked mysterious as she paired her outfit with a silver masquerade mask that covered half of her face.
Everyone looked at her in awe.
Most of the guests wore evening gowns to the show, but none could compare to her beauty.
At one glance, anyone from the fashion industry could recognize the value of the dress.
“Oh my gosh! This evening gown is the limited edition Starry Sky Formal Wear!”
“How much is it worth?”
“I heard it’s worth seven million dollar!”
“Who is she really?”
Megan sat among the crowd.
When she saw Ashlyn, her face turned pale instantly.
Damn it! Why is she here? How can this woman be so lucky? She’s actually wearing the Starry Sky Formal Wear? No. I’m sure it’s a counterfeit.
If she had money to buy the dress, why would she work as a mere designer in the company?
“Director, what should we do now?” Abigail leaned towards Megan and asked in a whisper.
What would happen if Ms. X found out I was the one who drugged her and tipped off the reporters?
What should I do?
Abigail was panicking inwardly.
“No one would find out if we don’t breathe a word about this. Why are you panicking?” Megan glared at her angrily, “How can you achieve greater success if you’re worried about this petty matter?”
“But,” Abigail was about to say something when she saw Ashlyn walking towards her. Thankfully, she chose a seat next to Shannon, who was not far from them.
After the effects of the drug had dissipated, Shannon had woken up.
When her colleagues told her what happened, she nearly had an emotional breakdown.
Boss almost got raped by the two scoundrels because she didn’t want to leave her behind.
When she looked at Ashlyn, her eyes reddened. She leaned towards her and held her hand, “Boss, how are you feeling? Are you okay?”
Ashlyn patted her hand reassuringly, “Don’t worry. I’m fine.” Then, her gaze fell on Megan, “But someone will not be.”
“Boss. If anything had happened to you, I would never be able to forgive myself,” Shannon said guiltily.
“Don’t be silly!” Ashlyn said jokingly as she poked her forehead, “Alright. Don’t cry anymore. They’re going to announce the winner soon. “
Shannon wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes and looked at the stage.
There were originally five members in the judging committees, but now only three were left. At this moment, they were seated on the judges’ panel.
Before the judging committee could say a word, they heard a woman called out in a sharp voice, “As a designer, how could you wear a counterfeit dress to attend the award ceremony? You’re utterly shameless!”
Everyone turned their heads to look in the direction of the voice. It was Megan! She raised her phone and pointed at Ashlyn.
Ashlyn sat calmly on her seat and looked at Megan’s phone screen.
The dress looked almost identical to the one she was wearing, but there are some differences if one looked carefully.
The dress in the picture did not have rhinestones at the waist area, and the rhinestones design began from the waist downwards.
