Chapter 140: Water Could Carry a Boat and Overturn it


    “She’s so beautiful.”


    “She’s not only beautiful but talented. I’m sure this series named ‘Dreamlike Love’ would be the


    hottest and most popr clothes soon.”


    “I like this kind of woman who has both beauty and talents. If there’s any chance, I’ll definitely go after


    her.”


    While looking at Florence stunningly, the media workers and audience were discussing in low voices.


    Especially those men. They glinted at her burning and obsessively.


    The atmosphere had reached the highest.


    At the backstage and behind the curtain, the smile on Ernest’s face faded bit by bit. He nced at each


    man on the scene coldly.


    He was so annoyed by the glint in their eyes. He even regretted it a bit that he let Florence show up


    after dressing up so beautifully.

    At this moment, all he wanted was to pack her up, take her back home, tie her up beside him, and hide


    her in his pocket so that he was the only man who could see her.


    Florence didn’t know Ernest’s thoughts and the discussion off-stage. In the high-heels, she walked to


    the front of the stage elegantly.


    The host was waiting for her and all the models dressing the clothes of the ‘Dreamlike Love’ series


    were waiting for her. Seeing them presented her design perfectly, Florence felt extremely satisfied.


    It was that she had seen the child who was brought up by her had grown up.


    The host was quite professional. He adjusted the atmosphere on the scene from time to time. Although


    it was not a long fashion show, he made it render the best effect.


    When the atmosphere had be the highest again, a harsh voice suddenly appeared from the


    apuse and the eximing.


    It was sharp and sarcastic.


    “She’s just an infamous designer. Why did she get the support from Hawkins Group and hold the


    fashion show that belongs to a front-line designer? Have you all ever wondered what she had done to


    gain all of them?”


    If nobody disclosed it, others would guess that Florence relied on the fortunate and her works were


    appreciated by others. However, when someone pointed it out deliberately, it soundedpletely


    different. Seemingly there were a lot of dark inside stories within it...


    The media loved gossips the most. Hence, instantly, all the cameras were focused on the woman who


    had just spoken.


    Then they recognized that woman ... everyone was more shocked.


    “It’s Isabel Hopkins, the famous designer.”


    “Now she’s standing out to disclose the inside stories. There should be something dirty behind it.”


    “Gosh. Hurry up and take the picture. It’s absolutely the super news today.”


    The media workers almost went nuts. They started taking Isabel’s photos immediately.


    Although a fashion show could stun others, it couldn’tpare to dirty gossip that could attract more


    money and more attention.


    Standing on the stage, Florence frowned, feeling disgusted.


    Ernest had spent a lot of effort and helped her hold the fashion show. If it was ruined by Isabel and the


    focus of the news was snatched by her, she would feel sorry for herself and even sorrier for Ernest.


    Clenching her hands into fists, Florence looked down at Isabel from the stage.


    She said calmly, “Excuse me, Miss Isabel Hopkins. You should have the evidence to prove your words.


    Everyone knows that I’ll be a designer officially after today. Now you’re speaking such nonsense


    without any evidence. What do you want?”


    Although Florence didn’t make it clear, what she meant was quite obvious.


    What was Isabel doing?


    Of course, it was because she had made a fool of herself days ago and she couldn’t continue surviving


    in the fashion business. Now she saw Florence was going to be the rising star in this business, she


    was about that Florence would be a threat to her status. Hence, she came over to give Florence a


    blow.


    Upon hearing what Florence said, the media workers also became less active and enthusiastic. It was


    true. Without evidence, the gossip had no breaking point to draw the readers’ attention.


    Nobody would pay attention to it.


    Then, someone asked, “Miss Hopkins, do you have any evidence for your words?”


    “Of course, I have.”


    Isabel looked up at Florence, her eyes full of deep hatred hidden.


    Then she opened her purse and took out a few photos from it.


    “I have photos to show the truth. Justice is in everyone’s heart. I don’t need to say anything else.”


    As soon as she showed those photos, an uproar raised within the audience.


    Those photos were all group photos of Florence and Ernest, such as she was getting off from Ernest’s


    luxurious car, having a meal with Ernest, holding each other, tugging each other back and forth, and so


    on.


    Every photo implied that Florence had a special rtionship with Ernest.


    All of the attendees knew that Ernest was the CEO of Hawkins Group.


    Florence suddenly signed the contract with Hawkins group all of a sudden and spent a lot of money to


    advertise for her work...


    At the thought of that, they realized that what Florence had achieved today must be because she had


    done something dirty for sure.


    “Florence Fraser, the fashion industry only looks upon the talent instead of the shortcuts you take and


    your backers. Only a designer with a pure and innocent heart would be favored by others. And you,


    you’ve done such a dirty thing to achieve your achievement by every possible means. Your design is


    also dirty,” Isabel scolded Florence seriously while pointing at her nose.


    She was like standing on the top of the morality, disclosing Florence’s guilty and dark history one by


    one.


    All the camera once again focused on Florence. However, at this moment, they were picturing her


    embarrassment.


    Within the crowd, people kept questioning, “Ms. Fraser, could you exin it? Are you Mr. Hawkins’


    mistress?”


    “Ms. Fraser, did Mr. Hawkins helped you particrly so that you could have signed the contract with


    Hawkins Group and hold this fashion show?”


    “Ms. Fraser, what on earth was your trade between Mr. Hawkins?”


    “Ms. Fraser, when did you hook up with Mr. Hawkins?”


    Each question was sharper than the other.


    They just didn’t say frankly that Florence had sold her to Ernest and be his mistress.


    Florence was stiffened on the stage, looking slightly pale.


    The cameras could bring her endless glories and they could also be countless sharp daggers.


    This double-edged sword could easily cut a person.


    However, she couldn’t pull Ernest into the mire. She didn’t want that noble and respectful man to get


    any stain, even if that was for her.


    Florence gritted her teeth, looking at all the audience in anger.


    She said, stressing each syble, “I signed the contract with Hawkins Group all of a sudden for real.


    Also, thepany provided me with the chance to hold this fashion show. However, haven’t you all


    witnessed if my designs are good enough?


    “Why my design and the favored clothes should be involved in such darkness? Can’t I be recognized


    by you all just based on my design only?”


    The noisy scene quieted down for a moment.


    Besides this grand fashion show, Florence’s design of ‘Dreamlike Love’ indeed had stunned them.


    They all couldn’t help falling in love with the series and wanting to buy them.


    However...
