Chapter 703

The room exploded in thunderous applause. Arabella picked up the mic and began to professionally

dissect why such high ratings were given, analyzing the merits of the long skirt. The other judges

started chiming in, praising the design.

Soon, other contestants started to take the stage.

A slew of all sorts of outfits failed to stand out in the critical eyes of the judges until Isabella strutted

in wearing a sweet yet badass denim ensemble. Her design was both sweet and badass, unique and

cutting–edge.

Her design fused traditional culture with modern trends. If sold individually, it would definitely be a hot

seller.

However, Arabella only gave it a six.

Seeing the score, the light in Isabella’s eyes dimmed. She knew this was coming.

She had previously pissed off Arabella, so Arabella was getting back at her by giving her a low score.

But as a judge, how could she abuse her power like this?

She instantly felt a surge of indignation.

Aside from Arabella, Hans scored seven, and the other judges gave eight or nine.

Overall, it was not a bad performance, but Isabella was feeling more and more hard done by.

As she was the overall champion of M Country, the host asked her, after all the scores were given,

“How do you feel about your current score? If I’m not mistaken, you’re the second highest–scored

contestant after Molly.

“No, I’m not happy at all,” Isabella said. “I have a problem with the score Queen Abby gave me.”

The audience was in an uproar as soon as these words were spoken.

The judges gazes all fell on Arabella.

Arabella lifted her eyes, meeting Isabella’s gaze on stage.

Seeing this, the host smelled big news and quickly probed, “Why? Just because Queen Abby gave you

a six? You think your work deserves a higher score?”

Isabella, “Yes, all the other judges acknowledged my work, only she intentionally gave me a low score.

“I’m sorry, did I hear you correctly? You said: Intentionally?”

“Yes, it’s because I offended her backstage.”

Hearing this, the audience was shocked. So, there’s more to the story!

Even the host was stunned, “You offended her.”

Isabella, “Yes, and she knows the first contestant, Molly. She gave Molly a nine

Because they know each other, Arabella gave her a nine!

This was an international design competition. Such a bombshell of news had the press scrambling to

capture the moment, even managing to snap Arabella’s reaction.

Seeing the situation getting out of hand, staff from the event organizers quickly cut off the host and

Isabella’s mics, with some people going on stage to escort Isabella off.

But Arabella’s voice quickly filled the ears of everyone present.

“No need to cut the mic.”

She signaled to the backstage staff to turn their mics back on, her eyes devoid of any panic, instead

radiating unbelievable confidence.

For a teenager to have such courage was truly astonishing.
