Chapter 1097

After Natalie and Lina partnered up, they drew the lot and were placed in Group Three. At this moment,
the host announced that Group Three was among the groups that made it to the final round.

Even though Natalie and Lina had guessed that they would make it to the finals, they could not help but
cheer and hug each other upon hearing the result.

In the dressing room, Shane was smiling as he watched the live stream. However, when he saw
Natalie and Lina hugging each other, his smile froze. Suddenly, he felt annoyed with Lina.

“Daddy, Mommy made it to the final round.” Connor pumped his fist excitedly.

Although Sharon did not quite understand what was happening, she was happy to hear that Natalie
made it to the final round.

Connor had told her that entering the final round meant that Natalie had won.

Therefore, Sharon was happy to hear that.

Shane pursed his lips and grunted to indicate that he heard Connor.

Connor looked at him in confusion. “Daddy, are you unhappy that Mommy made it to the final round?”

“No, I’m happy for her,” Shane said as he continued to look at the unpleasant scene of Natalie and Lina
hugging each other.

Connor pursed his lips. “But you don’t seem happy at all.”

The designers who made it to the final round cheered excitedly on the runway. On the other hand,
those who failed looked down dejectedly.



Annette and Lacey were among those who did not make it to the final round. They looked at the other
cheering designers with twisted expressions and eyes red with jealousy.

When they saw Natalie and Lina, they were even more upset.

They had taken risks and even put their future career on the line to sabotage Natalie and Lina.
However, they failed to disqualify Natalie and Lina in the end and got themselves eliminated from the
competition instead.

This is outrageous!

Annette grew furious the more she thought about it. Unable to stand it anymore, she clenched her fists,
stepped forward, and shouted loud and clear, “I can’t accept it!”

Instantly, the whole venue fell silent. Everyone, including hundreds of live audience and people
watching the live stream from all over the world, watched her curiously.

Meanwhile, the reporters on-site immediately focused their cameras on her and kept taking photos.

After all, the fact that someone had stepped out at this moment to question the judges’ decision was a
piece of shocking news.

“Oh? What can’t you accept?” the host asked Annette disdainfully before lifting the microphone to her
mouth. “Perhaps you can explain what you’re unhappy about?”

Nearby, Lina whispered to Natalie, “Nat, I’ve seen people who asked for trouble, but I’ve never seen
anyone wanting to ruin themselves so desperately.”

Natalie smiled and said, “Since she wants to ruin herself this urgently, let’s give it to her.”



Natalie had planned to wait for the audience and the reporters to leave before calling the organizer to
deal with Annette and Lacey.

But now, since Annette had stepped out to question the judges and humiliate the organizer, Natalie
believed the organizer would not show her mercy. They would surely be glad to punish Annette and
Lacey and reveal their ugly side to the world.

The host’s cold attitude at this moment said it all.

“What can’t I accept? Hmph, I can’t accept the result.” Annette puffed out her chest. “I think the result is
unfair. There must be something shady involving the judges.”

The audience gasped upon hearing what she said.

Below the runway, the judges all frowned and looked at Annette sternly.

The host’s expression darkened, and he tightened his grip on the microphone. Reporters below the
runway were frantic with excitement. They had the urge to run up the runway and shove their
microphones in Annette’s face to get her to reveal more.

“Ms. Jenning, why did you say that there’s something shady going on among the judges? Do you know
something?” a reporter asked loudly.

The other reporters stared at Annette, anticipating her answer.
