Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 282

Chapter 282

“I recall telling you not to drag my master into our fight, but you just wouldn't listen. Now, you will have to pay the price for your actions.”

A hint of terror flashed across Elsie's eyes.

She wasn't thinking straight when she said those words back then, but she couldn't help herself as she was consumed by jealousy and hatred.

Maple Group was a well-known company, and considering how it had focused all its resources on her, she reckoned the title of The Ultimate Designer would belong to her.

Yet little did she expect Bailey to appear out of nowhere and snatch the glory from her grasp, so how could she not be angry?

“I—”

“I've never told any outsiders that I'm a graduate of Gadzinski Academy, so your claim is nothing but a lie. Besides, the world didn't even know that Master Gadzinski was my master before I arrived in Hallsbay. You can say whatever you want, but you'll have to face the consequences at the end of the day.”

That said, Bailey pushed Elsie aside, lowered her head, and looked at the deputy CEO of Maple Group. “I'm not the only one that this woman offended. She has already offended Gadzinski Academy when she said those words. So if you wish to protect her, I will have to pin this on your company.”

At once, the man jolted in fright.

While Artemis was not someone he could offend, he, too, could not afford to cross Gadzinski Academy.

“Elsie, you're fired! You're no longer the lead designer of Maple Group! Get lost as soon as you wrap your things up in the company. Any companies owned by Maple Group will no longer employ you.”

“What? No, no! I can't be fired! If I'm fired, I will no longer have any place in the industry!” Elsie fell from her seat and collapsed onto the ground.

Artemis glanced at Bailey. Upon noticing that she showed no objection to this decision, he turned to Ken. “Get rid of her.”

“Understood.”

Mournful screams could be heard in the massive hall.

It lasted for two minutes before silence returned to the hall.

Immediately, Joshua signaled the host with his eyes.

Upon catching the signal from Joshua, the host raised the microphone and said, “Ladies and gentlemen, the judges have made the final decision. They unanimously agreed that the gown Ms. Bailey designed for Ms. Caridee is a gem in the design industry and voted her as The Ultimate Designer! Now, let us welcome Ms. Bailey for a speech with a warm round of applause!”

In the next second, thunderous applause reverberated across the hall.

Bailey turned to look at Artemis. “You go.”

A hint of coyness could be captured in her tone, to which Artemis raised his brows.

He was madly in love with the grim expression of hers.

If there weren't people around, he would've cornered her and tasted her lips as he wished.

“You should go. I've prepared something for you. It's a big surprise.”

Bailey rolled her eyes in response.

After hesitating for a moment, she went up the stage.

All the spotlights focused on her in that split second, and all eyes were on her.

Four years ago, it was a shame that Snowflake didn't show up at the award ceremony at the Grand Fashion Show.

Four years later, her astounding masterpiece shook the globe yet again. However, she did not let the ceremony end just like that in regret as she did before, for she had personally walked up the stage, allowing everyone to witness the graceful bearing of a top designer.
