?Chapter 365:


    “Dewy Hibiscus is simply breathtaking!” eximed a notable socialite. “Truly, its design marvelously merges diamond brilliance with the essence of femininity,” remarked a gentleman from the crowd.


    Color drained from K’s face as she absorbed the reality—the ne was Sadie’s work.


    She whipped her head towards Sadie, only to find her still sporting that serene, knowing smile, as if she had orchestrated the evening’s events.


    “Ms. Shaw, your ne is absolutely stunning!” a reporter called out eagerly. “Could you reveal the mastermind behind its design?”


    With a subtle smile, Eva turned her attention to Sadie.


    “The creator of the Dewy Hibiscus is none other than Sandra,” she announced, directing all acim her way.


    As the apuse thundered throughout the hall, all eyes turned to Sadie, celebrating her design.


    K’s cheeks burned with embarrassment. She felt utterly humiliated by the turn of events.


    All her meticulous preparations had turned into a joke.


    She bit her bottom lip so fiercely it nearly drew blood, her fingernails pressed into her palms.


    “Ms. Shaw, the Dewy Hibiscus ne you’re wearing is simply stunning,” a well-dressed gentlemanmented as he approached Eva. “May I ask how you chose this jewelry set?”


    Eva ran her fingers over the ne, her eyes alight with appreciation.


    “The Dewy Hibiscus isn’t just beautifully designed. It also incorporates elements from Helva’s traditional art. Sandra’s sketches brought a wonderful surprise to the set.”


    “And this adorable Samoyed apanying you…” The gentleman’s attention shifted to the dog, adorned with a ne by K.


    Your next chapter awaits at galnσ????????


    Eva feigned surprise, raising her eyebrows.


    “This little one? It’s dressed up especially for tonight.”


    “I meant its ne…” The gentleman faltered, his query fading into awkwardness.


    “This piece?” Evaughed, stroking the Samoyed’s head. “It’s from a young designer. Although the design might be somewhat borate, the quality of materials is superb. It suits my furry friend perfectly here.”


    Eva’s offhandments seemed to make the floor beneath K disappear. She felt the weight of scornful, pitying, and even gleeful nces from around the room.


    Noah’s face grew stern.


    “Noah…” K whispered, tugging at his sleeve, her voice quivering with emotion.


    Noah, however, ignored her.


    Just then, a sharp voice pierced the air, tinged with sarcasm.


    “Ms. Shaw, don’t you find this somewhat disrespectful?”


    All eyes turned toward the source, spotting a woman d in a sleek ck gown striding elegantly toward them.


    Her features exuded confidence, and the crowd recognized her as Vivi, the chief designer at Majestic Ego.


    Vivi’s presence added to the already electric atmosphere.


    Eva responded with a dismissive look, her voice dripping with condescension.


    “This belongs to me. How I use it is my concern alone. Miss Quinn, perhaps you should keep your opinions to yourself and focus on your own matters.”


    Vivi was caught off guard by Eva’s forthrightness, her expression hardening.


    She inhaled deeply, attempting to keep herposure intact.
