Chapter 171
Hazel felt a sudden chill creep up her scalp, and she quietly took two steps back, hoping to sneak off the runway unnoticed.
Mike, who had been engrossed in admiring a strapless gown, finally looked up to see the young, talented designer standing next to him. But upon recognizing the impatient expression on Vivienne’s face, he exclaimed in surprise, “Master Charles! Is that you?”
The room fell into a stunned silence.
“What? Mr. Ellington’s fiancée is Master Charles?”
“How is that possible? Mike must have mistaken her for someone else.”
From the runway below, Arabella had been urging Judith to stop Vivienne, but she hadn’t made a move to actually do it herself.
She was hoping that Vivienne would offend Mike, leading to a breakdown in the partnership between the Edwards family and Mike. This would not only ruin Vivienne’s reputation but also earn her the enmity of the Edwards family.
If Vivienne’s arrogance led to not only her own downfall but also strained the relationship between the Ellington Group and the Edwards Group, would the Ellington family still want such a troublesome daughter–in–law?
Arabella had her plan all figured out, and when Mike stormed towards Vivienne in anger, she thought her wish was about to come true.
But to her surprise, not only did Mike praise Vivienne’s altered design, he even called her “Master Charles.”
This Mike must have lost his mind!
She stepped forward and addressed Mike. “Mr. Mike, my sister grew up in a humble monastery and has never touched fashion design. How could she possibly be Master Charles? You must have mistaken her for someone else.”
“How could I possibly mistake her?” Mike gave Arabella a strange look and replied. “When my creativity hit a roadblock years ago, it was Master Charles who inspired me and led to my success today. She is like my mentor. Who would mistake their own mentor?”
He then pointed at the obedient Italian model who had been following Vivienne’s instructions to the tee.
