Chapter 518 The Emerging Designers Finals
Right after she returned to her seat in the office, Tim’s phone rang.
“Amelia, come to my office.”
Amelia pushed her wandering thoughts aside and went in.
Tim motioned for her to sit down and got straight to the point. “The Emerging Designers Competition we talked about starts in two days. The organizers sent over the schedule and the rules. Get yourself ready.”
She nodded seriously, holding the folder to her chest as she stood up. “Mr. Clem, I’ll do my best. I won’t let the company down.”
Tim smiled, gave her a few more tips for the big day, and let her go.
Back in her office, Amelia put the folder on the desk but didn’t open it right away.
Her thoughts drifted back to the past.
She clearly remembered when Hannah proudly announced she would join the competition.
Back then, Hannah was always by Ethan’s side. Everyone treated her like the future mistress of the Rowe Group. Everything she did got attention.
With Ethan’s power, she got a lot of advantages in the competition.
But now…
Ethan and Hannah had cut ties.
Without Ethan backing her up, would Hannah still join the competition?
Even if she was brave enough to come, how could she stand her ground in the finals with so many talented designers? With her limited skills?
The early rounds were easy. With some connections and favors, someone could still slip through and fool judges who didn’t know much about design.
But the finals were different. That was where real skills mattered. In front of a professional judging panel, anything fake would be exposed right away.
Amelia quickly shook her head and stopped thinking about it.
She was a judge now. She should focus on the competition, not old grudges.
Two days later, the highly anticipated Emerging Designers Competition finals finally began.
Top designers from all over the country, industry experts, media reporters, and design fans gathered to witness the big event.
Amelia wore a dark suit. Led by a staff member, she calmly walked to the judges‘ table.

The judges‘ seats were set right in front of the stage, lined up with a perfect view.
Amelia sat with several senior designers and art school professors. Before the competition started, they had a final discussion. Her eyes casually swept over the waiting area for the contestants, and she felt a little emotional.
These people came with passion and creativity. Soon, they would be tested here.
And she, as someone with experience, would judge their work and look for the next rising star in design.
Just then, a sudden commotion came from the entrance.
Amelia looked over and saw Hannah walking in, surrounded by several people.
She was wearing a high–end designer gown with her hair in perfect waves and giant sunglasses covering half her face, looking mysterious and arrogant.
Amelia sighed to herself.
She had clearly underestimated Hannah.
Even without Ethan’s support, she still knew how to grab attention with her flashy, showy style.
Although Ethan had cut ties with Hannah, the announcement had not been made public. It was only known within a small circle.
So to many people who didn’t know the truth, Hannah was still a socialite closely connected to the Rowes.
And the people who loved to chase power and status would never miss a chance to get close to her.
Hannah walked forward gracefully.
Her eyes scanned the room and finally landed right on Amelia.
With a proud smile, she walked toward the judges‘ table.
Amelia sat there quietly, looking straight ahead as if she hadn’t noticed Hannah at all.
She picked up the scoring sheet in her hand and calmly looked through it.
“Oh, look who it is! Amelia? I had no idea you’d be here.”
Hannah stopped about three steps away from the judges‘ table, her voice sharp.
She slowly took off her sunglasses, revealing a challenging smile,
Her eyes looked Amelia up and down as she spoke with disdain, “I didn’t see your name on the list of finalists before. So, did you find some other way to get into the finals?”
As soon as she said that, whispers spread through the crowd.
Her meaning was obvious. She was hinting that Amelia had slept her way to the top to get into the finals.
