I advise that you turn a deaf ear to everything they are saying. Focus on your work. Make sure your designs are selected for the first show. Your success will be a good response to all your haters. It will also prove that you are innocent of the accusations.” Tiffany put down the documents and patted the back of Janet’s hand. After pursing her lips, she continued, “You had better invest the time
