Let Me Stay The Night Novel (Christina and Nathaniel)

Chapter 32 Appear In Three Seconds

The man’s voice was so loud that almost everyone in the venue could hear him.

They couldn’t deny that the female winner was indeed young, but could there be more to the situation

than met the eye as the man had suggested?

The latter, who had an easily recognizable square face and booming voice, continued his tirade. “Radiant

Corporation has disrespected all fashion designers by randomly picking a winner. What an utterly

disgusting company!

Now that the company’s reputation had been called into question, the judges’ faces instantly darkened.

“What should we do now?” Gina whispered as she turned her head.

Yosef hadn’t once lost his cool since the heckler made those outrageous claims, nor was he about to let

his decision be swayed. Christina’s design was undoubtedly the best among everyone else’s! Whether it

was her choice and matching of colors or her tailoring skills, she outshone them all!

Meanwhile, lan had ordered the security guards to take the man away. After all, how could they change

the winner for no rhyme or reason?

It’d be ridiculous if they did!

The security guards quickly approached the heckler, but the latter refused to budge and even began.

screaming at the top of his lungs, “Get off the stage, Christina Steele! You’re not worthy!”

As the incandescent light shone harshly on Christina’s face and revealed the glint in her eye, she fixed

the man with a cold, hard stare.

Hushed whispers constantly rang out around her, and she knew her competitors also believed she didn’t

deserve to win.

After all, she was nowhere near their level of qualifications and experience when it came to fashion

design.

Tina curled her lips into a half smile and gave Christina a side-eye. “I can’t believe you still have the

nerve to remain on stage. You sure are thick-skinned, aren’t you?”

“Exactly. I’d be running off in shame if I were her.”

“Perhaps being shameless is what she’s good at. It’s bad enough to be hooking up with the boss, but she

has even resorted to cheating with the judges. How disgusting.

Christina, on the other hand, merely scoffed. Ha! These people have such wild imaginations! They

should quit being designers and become screenwriters instead. How would I, an individual who had only

just stepped into society, have the power to bribe the judges?

Just then, her sharp gaze fell on the heckler below the stage. This face… Why does it seem so familiar?

Not only was the man tall and burly, but he also barely flinched when the security guards tried to hold

him down.

With the way he had his phone out while vilifying Christina, those who didn’t know any better might even

think he was venting his anger because of unrequited love.

1/4

At the start, he only said Christina cheated, but it didn’t take long before he escalated the issue and

dragged Radiant Corporation through the mud.

Needless to say, the crowd soon broke out into jeers.

What shocked them, however, was when the woman standing in the limelight suddenly turned around

and walked off the stage.

Oh, my. Has the embarrassment gotten to her, or is she ashamed that her cheating scandal has been

exposed? Either way, being ridiculed and insulted while on a public stage can’t be fun. Anyone in her

shoes would feel mortified too.

Naturally, the four judges were just as shocked. They hadn’t been bribed, and Christina had won the

competition fair and square. Why was there a need to get off the stage, then? Wouldn’t her actions.

suggest she was guilty like the man had claimed?

Then again, Christina was merely a young lady in her twenties. What more could they expect from

her?

Meanwhile, Zachary had had enough of how things were developing. If the man continued to spew

accusations about Radiant Corporation, their company’s reputation would undoubtedly go down the

drain.

Just then, Christina suddenly returned to the stage.

After borrowing the host’s microphone, she flashed a work pass to the audience and turned her attention

to the man.

“Sir, is this your work pass?”

Stunned, the latter quickly looked away. “T-This…

Thanks to the bright lights, everyone could see that the photo on the work pass was that of the heckler.

Even though he didn’t admit it, those in the crowd had already confirmed his identity.

It was clear as day that the work pass belonged to the square-faced man. Not only was his name on it.

but his company logo was also hard to miss.

“You’re an employee of Modern Fashionista, and as everyone knows, Radiant Corporation and Modern

Fashionista have been the fiercest competitors in the fashion industry in recent years. However, I can’t

believe you’d use such underhanded tactics to attack Radiant Corporation’s designers!”

When it came to domestic fashion brands, Modern Fashionista used to be the biggest name until Radiant

Corporation gradually surpassed them over the years.

There were even a few occasions when Modern Fashionista plagiarized Radiant Corporation’s designs.

resulting in countless lawsuits between the two companies. Although those were eventually settled out of

court, Modern Fashionista continued to look for opportunities to bring Radiant Corporation down.

With that, the square-faced man’s intentions had become apparent.

A smirk crept across Christina’s face. “No matter who the winner is, you’d still raise your objections. Isn’t

that right?”

Upon hearing that, the man’s face turned deathly pale. Sh’t. My plan to stir up trouble has been exposed!
