Dear Ex-Wife You Are MINE (Victoria and Alessandro)

Chapter 103 does not belong to me

VICTORIA'S POV...

I watched the woman beside me. She is wearing that flower pendant, standing beside me. My eyes

roamed to the whole stage and as I guessed, Carol is standing beside that designer from Smith

Industries.

Things started coming into a line before me now. I turned my gaze to the audience and met my

husband's gaze.

Even from afar, I could feel his confusion. He is staring at me and the model beside me. Sage, who

never had much expression on his face, was also surprised by the sudden situation.

I smiled at him, remaining calm. Then my eyes searched for the two faces, I want. And there they are.

Both Camilla and Jordan watching me with evil smirks plastered on their faces. From this distance even

I could feel the disgust in their eyes and the victorious gleam.

And guess what, I only smiled.

You must be thinking, why am I not anxious and hyper? Well, I might be tense before participating in

the exhibition. After all, my first time official competition as a jewellery designer and this will be telecast

too.

But, they forgot my background and the family I belong to.

Edwards is not only a surname but it holds quite a reputation from time to time, all over the world. We

grew up with politeness and manners but were taught to be confident and fearless when it comes to

standing up for ourselves.

I know how this industry could run and how people could be ganged up against me. And to avoid and

survive the situation, I have learnt to take caution beforehand.

The moment, my eyes fell on Camilla and Jordan here. Especially, when Camilla completely ignored

me, I knew that something messy is gonna happen. After all, Jordan is one of the shareholders of

Adornet. This is the reason for this design to get entry. Or else, it would have been disqualified at first

glance.

My doubts became clear when I was standing beside Jordan's designer, with the look-alike model. I

have taken my caution.

Withdrawing my gaze from others, my eyes found the designer and Carol. None of them looked at me

and happily stood in their place.

I leaned toward my model a little,

"Why are you here? Shouldn't you be standing in your sister's place?"

I felt her tense up, but she maintained her professionalism and spoke lowly, "What are you talking Miss

Edwards? You are the designer of 'the flower' and I am standing right beside you."

Eh! Even the name 'the flower' is aimless! It seemed m, they all along planned it. And I have to say, this

design is so out of place before all the designs here.

No doubt, this has been planned before and they did not waste a single bit of energy in this design.

I only smiled calmly. "Oh, cool. We will know soon."

My words tensed her up once again but then she maintained her posture well. Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.

I heard the host start his speech...

"Ladies and gentlemen. Here, we present you the designs and their designers. Please, give a round of

applause to their fifteen days of hard work."

The whole place was filled with claps. Even all of us did too.

Even in this huge audience, I could feel a few eyes plastered on me. Two are shocked and confused.

And two are disdainful and shocked.

However, I concentrated on the host.

"Now, let's introduce the designs and their designers. And get to know about their views on their

designs. The first design is ....." And he continued with other works.

There were a total of ten designers, sharing the stage with me. With their names and designs

announced, they have given their speeches. Even the designer of Jordan also gave his speech.

He even memorised the whole theory of mine and I swear, the delivery was smooth as butter. I could

feel Alessandro's eyes on me. Confusion has been replaced with anger.

Still, I am Calm and gave him a polite smile. He doesn't know what happened. If he knew he would

have killed that odd couple just right here.

And finally, it's my turn.

When the light set on me and all the eyes were watching, the host said,

"Miss Edwards, please explain your design to our audience."

The audience was silent. I could feel the displeased stares at me and low murmurs. I heard,

"Is this a design in competition? Has she gone crazy? I can design better than her!"

"What is this design? Tsk. Seems like money can buy everything. Her presence here just destroys a

chance for one talented designer!"

"I have never realised, Victoria Edwards is such a low-level designer! Edwards surely gonna be

disgraced because of her!"

The situation turned awkward. Even the host felt uncomfortable. He cleared his throat and laughed

awkwardly.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please calm down. Let's hear Miss Edwards first. I am sure, she has an

amazing explanation about her design!"

He turned to me and then the design once. Surely, he is just being professional before and inside, he is

thinking the same too.

I remained indifferent and took the extra microphone from his hand. Turning my gaze to the audience, I

smiled at them.

"Good Evening, ladies and Gentlemen. Today, we all presented here for this exhibition and this is such

a pleasure for me. However, unfortunately, I have to announce a despicable move the faculty has

taken."

I heard gasps and the host said with a frown,

"Miss Edwards, what are you trying to say? Don't just waste our time..."

"I am not wasting anyone's time." I cut him in the middle, "And let me finish."

I turned to the audience once again and continued with a smile plastered on my face.

"You see, this design? This flower design. It's certainly aimless. But, I really don't blame the poor

quality of the designer. He might have his own definition. But, what I am trying to say is, this design

here, does not belong to me at all..." I announced.
