?Chapter 1196:


    Seeing those two items, Raegan’s doubts were almost entirely dispelled.


    Noticing Raegan’s stunned expression, Anti couldn’t help saying, “You don’t have to look so shocked. About your earlier question—there are no photos of me online and I’ve never made public appearances, not because I didn’t want to, but because I was too young back then. You know how parents are—they always worry too much and wouldn’t let me appear in public. But I’m turning eighteen soon, and I’m done being a puppet.”


    After hearing that exnation, Raegan finally smiled. “I was out of line just now. I’m truly honored to receive your invitation.”


    “No worries. I’m used to it,” Anti replied lightly. “Geniuses are always lonely and hard for ordinary people to understand, you know?”


    With that, Anti stood. “I’m full and need to go rest. Let’s exchange contact info.”


    They quickly swapped phone numbers, and Raegan even followed her on Instagram.


    Anti proactively suggested they take a photo together, saying she wanted to show thepany staff what their future model looked like.


    As soon as Anti left, Raegan immediately opened Instagram to check her posts.


    At the top was their freshly taken photo, with Anti’s caption reading, “Such good luck today! I’m nning to sign this beautiful model—her aura is just like a sapphire, sparking so many ideas instantly.”


    Scrolling further down, Raegan saw Anti had also posted the invitation to the Cooper Group Charity G, adding, “Didn’t expect they’d invite me! But I might not have time to attend—midterms areing up soon.”


    “It’s almost exactly what she said just now,” Raegan murmured. “The only difference is… her personality ispletely unlike the low-key image described in all the reports.”


    After all, who would have thought Anti would openly unt her g invitation on social media and share her design inspirations without any restraint?


    Her Instagram was filled with countless sketches of her designs.


    “Well, at least this proves Anti isn’t Maia,” Raegan whispered to herself.

    Of course, that idea had always been a bit crazy to begin with. But still, it never hurt to y it safe.


    Raegan quickly got up and returned to her room. She dismantled the eavesdropping device, put it back into its case, checked out of the hotel, and left.


    Meanwhile, in the room on the other side of the wall, Antiy on the soft bed, a smile ying at the corners of her lips. “If this is a dream,” she murmured, “I hope I never wake up.”


    In truth, she had been lying—repeatedlytely.


    Her name really was Anti, but it was merely a coincidence; it happened to match the mysterious designer’s name.


    A few months ago, she had been a timid girl who rarely spoke up, someone her ssmates saw as shy and awkward.


    At school, she was often mocked and bullied. Short in stature, freckles dotting her in face, she was the kind of person who faded into the background wherever she went.
