Chapter 969 The Tip Of The Iceberg Since it was only ten minutes before the live broadcast began, Olivia moved away from Amos and flashed him a warm smile.
âAmmy, Iâm so glad you came today.â
âI know,â he said curtly. Amos once wavered because of Natalie, but since Natalie was no longer a competent option for him, he did not see why he should push Olivia away.
Though he wasnât really fond of Olivia, he did not intend to reject her affection toward him.
Olivia tiptoed and planted a kiss on his lips. She was delighted with Amosâ attitude of silent acceptance.
âIâll get going first then. Iâll do my best to make you proud.â
âAll the best.â
Olivia looked at him for the last time and went out swiftly while holding her dress.
Over at the conference room, all the facilities and equipment needed were already prepared. The models and special guests were seated in the front row, waiting to go on stage for the presentation.
Bullet comments floated on the live screen. Looking forward to true love and Cupid descends were some of the words displayed on the projector.
As for the staff, they were all hyped up for the night. Since their rival was already defeated, they put all their hope on the international broadcast that was about to begin soon. Since Dreamâs incident was widely discussed, it also helped boost their eventâs visibility.
Before she went on stage, Olivia refreshed her makeup and took a deep breath.
When the director signaled to her, Olivia entered the camera frame elegantly with her script in her hand.
âGood evening, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to Farrington Jewelryâs launch of our latest collectionâCupid. I would like to take this opportunity to also welcome the sixty million viewers joining us online. Before we begin, letâs take a few minutes to watch a recap video of how our latest seasonâs jewelry came about.â
Olivia clearly enunciated her speech, and her whole bearing was charismatic, giving the live broadcast a good start.
Bridger and Jada held hands as they looked at their daughter with pride. âSheâs doing really well! As expected from our daughter!â
Even Amos was attracted by Oliviaâs performance. He was quite impressed, as he had never seen this side of his fiancée before.
The effect of the five-minute promotional video was phenomenal. Many of the netizens watching the event live started asking for the link to the video.
As for the audience attending in person, their reaction was equally good. Their applause was thunderous when the video ended.
âThank you. Next, we would like to invite this seasonâs designer, Athena, to share with us the concept of her work.â
The cameras shifted toward the crowd.
All the lights were directed toward a charming woman in a suit.
When all attention was on her, the woman took her time to stand up and take off her hat, showing a head of long silky hair that flowed down all the way to her shoulder.
Her cheeks were youthful, and although she wore no makeup, her beauty was enough to impress anyone.
Although women usually opted for gowns at big events, her choice of apparel was fantastic. She looked attractive and immaculate, giving people the vibe of an independent woman.
âNatalie Nichols?â Olivia was alarmed.
What is she doing here?
Bridger and Jada were equally dumbstruck.
Likewise, Amos was stupefied. Given his understanding of Natalieâs personality, he knew she must have a reason for her appearance, but still, he could not think of a good reason for her attendance at the Jones familyâs event.
The staff present were also shocked.
As for the audience watching it live, they mistook Natalie for Athena and they started leaving comments.
Some commented: Who is that beautiful woman? Her beauty is more than enough for her to be an actress!
Some even compared Olivia with Natalie: Olivia is queen until she meets her.
Some agreed: I know right! She should be a celebrity!
Natalieâs appearance made the live broadcast heated. Viewership even soared by millions. Netizens started leaving more comments, and most of them were about Natalieâs looks.
Meanwhile, over at the Pendant Hall, Samuel was eagerly following the live show after taking his medication.
His narrow eyes stuck to the screen as he watched the woman he loved with pride.
âMr. Bowers, do you think Ms. Nichols will be able to handle it?â Jesper asked in a worried tone.
âIâm sure she can. Thatâs why I didnât interfere,â he said with a proud smile on his face. âThis is just the tip of the iceberg of what sheâs capable of.â
