Chapter 463 Fashion Party


    When J saw the invitation Johanna had handed to her with her own eyes, she had no choice


    but to admit that her mother was indeed a decisive person.


    "Mrs. White, to be honest, I haven''t yet decided whether I''ll be working in Barnes or not." Holding


    the invitation in her hand, J didn''t know whether tough or cry in response.


    After all, she had to take a lot of people into consideration, especially Hannah and Ethan.


    Johanna had her own master n. She secretly hoped that J would stay with her in Barnes for


    the rest of her life. Besides, the White family was wealthy enough to support J.


    However, judging by the reluctance on J''s face, Johanna surmised that she must have been


    thinking about Brandon, the man in Seasisco.


    He was a good-looking fellow, but Johanna wasn''t fond of him at all.


    "I didn''t say that you have to work in Barnes, but it would be good for you to expand your


    connections. Barnes may not be as fashionable as Seasisco, but it''s a developed city with a healthy


    ecosystem of experienced designers to learn and gain knowledge from." Johanna showed a gentle


    smile on her face.


    Unwilling to disappoint Johanna, J eventually agreed to attend the party.


    *******


    At the party, J followed Johanna around the hall, meeting all the big shots from the fashion


    circles because she wasn''t quite familiar with the designers in Barnes.


    "This is Mr. Smith. He is the chief designer of the project of redefining women''s clothing that has


    been popr all over the country recently." Johanna was elegant and unhurried, while J


    L was looking for an opportunity to humiliate J. Since she used to rub shoulders with Barnes''


    upper ss, L had several friends at this party. Mostly daughters from rich families who had


    graduated from famous design schools abroad.


    "Mom, J has just graduated. Don''t you think it''s too soon for her to talk with these experienced


    designers who have been in the fashion industry for decades?" L whispered to Johanna.


    L pretended to be concerned, but deep down inside, she was just waiting for J to make a fool


    of herself and getughed at by these famous designers. After all, in her opinion, J was just a


    novice, unworthy of public appreciation.


    Perhaps then Johanna woulde to regret bringing J to this party in the first ce.


    "I trust her," said Johanna calmly and firmly.


    L''s heart sank almost immediately. After all, Johanna had never talked about her with such pride


    and certainty.


    That realization irked her even more.


    Mr. Smith, the renowned designer, was a very arrogant man who despised people who tried to win


    him over with tteries.


    If it weren''t for Johanna, he wouldn''t have spoken to J, but after spending a few minutes with


    her in conversation, he realized that J had a profound passion for designing. "I remember


    seeing your work at Seasisco Fashion Week not too long ago."


    "I am honored and delighted to hear that. After all, I''m just a neer with still so much to learn,"


    J answered in a natural manner.


    "The smooth fabric was a good choice. It emted the fluidity of the wind, incisively and vividly." Mr.


    Smith raised his eyebrows and clinked sses with J.


    Suddenly, all eyes were on Mr. Smith and J. As they became the focus of the party, everyone


    walked up to them and joined them in conversation.


    Meanwhile, standing in the corner with her fists clenched in anger, L watched in awe as she didn''t


    expect things to work out so nicely for J.


    How could this be? How?


    It looked like J had all the famous designers, the chief editors of various fashion magazines,


    and the founders of brands eating from the palm of her hand.


    L gritted her teeth to stop herself from screaming.


    J was thriving amongst all the talented people around her and yet L couldn''t even understand


    what they were talking about.


    With pride in her eyes, Johanna said, "When I see J, I feel like I am looking at my younger self."


    L felt bitter in her heart.


    It suddenly dawned upon her that she wasn''t as good as J.

    Everything about her was superficial, but J had real ability and talent.


    J wasn''t intimidated by all those big shots and was actually wise enough to control the whole


    conversation.


    J was a quiet woman who didn''t talk much, but she could express her ideas brilliantly when it


    came to something she was good at.


    L was utterly disconste.


    She also noticed one more important detail.


    In the past, handsome men would flock to her since she was the daughter of the White family, but


    tonight, there wasn''t a single man who came up to talk to her.
