“Listen to me, Ms. Berry. What about you let Lynette do this? She’s a celebrity, while you’re just an influencer. This is not where you should be,” Emerson Conley insinuated.

The manager smiled half-heartedly at Ashlyn, looking at her with disdain as if he intended to challenge her in public.

While bystanders watched on to see how the feud would turn out, Ashlyn remained unperturbed. “I’m sorry, Mr. Conley, I’m aware that the pressure in showbiz can get a bit overwhelming, but that doesn’t mean I’ll just pass this chance to a fake.”

“Seriously, Ashlyn? Don’t you feel tired of keeping up the act? Stop being so full of yourself. Everyone is being nice just because you’re Mrs. Nolan,” Emerson ridiculed, folding his arms before his chest.

With Haddock Group’s backing, the manager had no qualms about standing up to Ashlyn. In fact, he deliberately raised his volume so that everyone could hear his blunt insults.

Faced with the menacing manager from Haddock Entertainment, Ashlyn glanced at him and asked coldly, “You need to look at yourself in the mirror. You’re just a nobody, so stop making threats because your company has your back.”

Emerson felt a chill run down his spine under Ashlyn’s piercing glare.

Earlier, the models and make-up artists had gathered around, waiting to see Emerson teach Ashlyn a good lesson, but it turned out Ashlyn was getting the upper hand.

In the end, instead of wasting time on the troublemakers, Ashlyn went to the changing room to get changed.

When she came out again in the night sky dress, everyone was blown away.

Even the models, who had the perfect body for the job and could pull off any fashion piece, were flabbergasted by how well the dress complemented the regal air around Ashlyn and her flawless features.

The staff was equally stunned, for they knew bringing out the beauty of Ms. X’s color-gradient-themed designs was no mean feat. The night sky dress had gradient hues with deep shades of green and blue at its bottom, and it adorned Ashlyn’s slim body magnificently, making her figure look even taller.

Underneath the darker ends of the dress, her fair skin seemed fairer and shinier than it already was.

Everyone had thought that Ashlyn was merely a famous Twitter influencer who appeared to be pretty just in her photos and videos, but when they saw her in person, they found themselves at a loss for words to describe her surpassing beauty.

The aura she gave off was no second to any models present.

The dress complemented her impeccably as if the fashion piece and the wearer were made especially for one another.

When Ashlyn saw that her appearance had knocked everyone out, she glanced at Lynette and said apathetically, “Lynlyn, right? Instead of showing off, why don’t we compete fair and square on the runway?”

Emerson’s face turned grim.

He looked at the dress Lynette had on her and instantly wondered how the same designer’s work could look so luxurious on Ashlyn but unbecoming on Lynette. He had to admit that Lynette looked like a kid in an adult’s clothes.

Not only did she fail to bring out the fineness of the piece, but there was also no trace of elegance in her.

Although she was about Ashlyn’s height, her demeanor was nowhere close to hers.

When Cassandra saw this, a smug smile broke out on her face as she mumbled, “Well, a fake will always be a fake.”

Meanwhile, Lucas was seated among the audience with his long legs crossed as he checked out stock market analyses on his tablet when Spencer whispered something in his ear.

When he heard what Spencer had to say, Lucas looked up T-shaped stage, and a frown spread between his brows.
