Chapter 166
The theme of the design was not announced this time either.
The contestants would be given the theme on the spot, and they had to come up with a design with the fabrics provided by the studio.
Moreover, they would also be changing partners for said round.
Since contestants were allowed to choose partners freely, everyone had been sticking to the partners they had from the first round. After all, they would have developed a sense of teamwork, and the designer would have a better understanding of what fit their partners.
The sudden change was obviously to increase the difficulty of the competition.
Over at the CEO’s office of Jessop Corp, Mandy was throwing a fit. “What are they thinking?! Why would they set the rule of changing partners for the last round?!”
The rule change had caught Kyle and Noel by surprise too.
Mandy kept complaining, saying, “Kyle, you know Noel must win this time, but I won’t be winning with her if we’re not in the same group! That’s unacceptable! Aren’t you close with the production team? Can’t they annul the rule?!”
“I’ve called them and told them what I think, but they’re saying that the script has been stolen and can’t be changed.”
“I don’t care!” Mandy huffed, not having any of it.
“It’s not up to you now that it’s been confirmed. Moreover, you’re not the key in this competition- Noel is,” Kyle snapped, ignoring Mandy as he turned to Noel. “I’m actually worried about you. Won’t there be any surprises in the final round?”
Noel was actually worried too, with her chief concern being Cordy, who seemed to survive each round by luck.
However, that also meant she won enough votes from the live audience to proceed.
She was actually getting suspicious now-was Cordy doing this on purpose?
She should not have the money to pay off the production team for such an elaborate script, making everyone let down their guard while she proceeded to the final round.
