Chapter 215 Buying Time
“What do we do, Gracie? The show is about to start in five minutes. Can we make it?” In the backstage area, Emily paced back and forth, looking anxious.
Grace’s hands were moving quickly, but the clothes weren’t taking shape.
“Maybe we can ask the organizers to delay it a bit,” Emily suggested, but Grace stopped her.
“No, this show is crucial. If we ask for more time, it will have a significant impact.”
“Then what should we do? We can’t just wait like this, can we?”
Grace’s hands moved faster as she sewed with the needle and thread. After some thought; she said, “Unless … we find a suitable excuse.”
“The show is starting. What excuse would be suitable?”
The backstage staff were all deep in thought, exchanging puzzled glances. Yet they couldn’t think of any excuse.
“In the worst–case scenario, let the models in the first round walk an extra lap. That way, we can at least gain an extra 10 minutes.”
At that, everyone else voiced their thoughts.
“But those reporters aren’t fools. If we make the model walk another lap, they will suspect there’s a problem backstage.”
“This show has attracted a wide range of audiences. If this becomes a problem, it won’t end
well.”
At this point, Grace’s forehead was covered in sweat. Yet she dared not stop. She continued to
work on the clothes in her hands.
Finally, the time was up.
On stage, the host had already begun the opening remarks.
“It’s started. Hawkins Group’s president will soon take the stage to address the audience. All models from the first round, please take your positions.” Emily quickly got the models ready.
