Chapter 152 Stunning Everyone
Sadie’s eyes swept the room, finally resting on Melina. A soft smile played on her lips. “Since there seems to be some
doubt about my identity as Sandra, I’ll let the quality of my work do the talking.”
Melina squirmed under Sadie’s steady gaze yet managed to maintain her composure. “That sounds fine in theory, but what
assurance do we have that your designs aren’t just imitations?”
With a light laugh, Sadie responded, “Imitations? How about both you and I design something on the spot then? Let’s take
‘Neo Metropolis‘ as the theme. Both the judges and the audience can be our witnesses.”
She looked around, addressing the competitors. “Anyone feeling confident in their skills is more than welcome to
participate.”
This challenge stirred excitement throughout the venue.
From his seat, Noah watched Sadie intently, admiring her confidence on stage.
The next three hours flew by, filled with an evident blend of tension and energy.
Seated at the judges‘ table, Sadie was a picture of concentration, engrossed in her crafting.
As time expired, one by one, contestants presented their designs.
Displayed on the large screen were a variety of futuristic, urban–themed jewelry designs.
When Sadie’s creation was revealed, it stood out with its innovative use of tourmaline, creating a piece that combined clarity with a futuristic aesthetic, making it almost seem to leap out at the viewer.
The room initially fell into a hushed awe, soon replaced by a resounding round of applause.
Sadie’s colleagues from the design department at Wall Group exchanged looks of disbelief, their expressions revealing their
astonishment.
Melina’s complexion drained of color, her lips trembling, yet she found herself speechless.
Throughout it all, Sadie remained cool and collected, her thoughts clear and undisturbed.
She had anticipated such a result.
To her, the contest was merely a minor hurdle.
Breaking the prevailing silence, Noah rose to his feet.
“Melina’s design deserves recognition too. It’s quite creative.”
His voice resonated deeply, tinged with a subtle hint of advocacy.

Sadie’s eyes lingered on Noah momentarily.
He retained his polished, suave demeanor, yet his gaze seemed more enigmatic now.
A faint stir of emotion rippled through Sadie.
Naturally, he was speaking up for his employee–perfectly understandable.
The host swiftly intervened to smooth any ruffled feathers, proceeded to announce the results, and expressed gratitude to the judges and contestants for their exceptional contributions.
Jordyn lingered awkwardly at the roadside outside the venue, hastily calling Kyla.
“Kyla, you’ll never guess who I just saw! Sandra! The elusive designer Sandra, and guess what? She’s actually that bitch Sadie!”
There was a brief silence on the other end before Kyla responded cautiously, “Are you saying Sandra is Sadie?”
“Yes, exactly! I was there, I saw everything! She’s at the Vision Clash event, acting as the chief judge! We need to do something; we can’t let her have all the glory!”
Anxiety surged through Jordyn.
Similarly, Kyla felt a tidal wave of disbelief hit her.
Could it really be that Sandra was Sadie? This revelation was nothing short of explosive for her.
“Understood, I’ll take care of it.”
She ended the call and sank into contemplation.
In Amberhollow, Kyla’s hands balled into fists. She couldn’t bear the thought that Sadie, the person she loathed and considered a nuisance, was in fact Sandra, a celebrated designer worldwide.
This revelation was unacceptable! She felt compelled to act.
Taking a deep breath, Kyla attempted to regain her composure.
She reached for her phone and made a call.
“Check the background of every contestant in ‘Vision Clash‘. I want a full rundown.”
The voice on the other end responded with deference, “Certainly, Miss Wade. I will begin immediately.”
After hanging up, Kyla moved to the window, her eyes scanning the dim cityscape.
