Chapter 1868
Seeing such kind- hearted Old Madam Amery, everyone was stunned.
However, her appearance did not make the atmosphere stiff and awkward, which relieved everyone here.
Tina also breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Old Madam Amery had a bad temper, at least she had no evil intentions to hurt a child.
Isla tore at the wrapping with her chubby little hands, put the lollipop into her mouth, and then ran back to Tina with a smile.
Old Madam Amery sat on the sofa with the help of Abby.
Old Master Amery looked over, hinting her not to make any trouble. Old Madam Amery naturally understood it, so she did not take the initiative to provoke anyone and just sat there quietly.
Bill and Lin found a new topic to talk about, and the living room once again filled with the hum of conversation.
Tina looked at Lin and suddenly said with a smile, "By the way, the GDA International Fashion Exhibition has announced the name list of qualified participants, and I made it to the last round!"
Lin smiled and said joyfully, "Is that so? I was just about to ask you! That's great. But with your strength, I don't need to worry about you!"
She did not ignore Abby. After finishing this, she turned around and asked her with concern, "Abby, you made it too, right?"
Ever since the candidates signed up for the GDA International Fashion Exhibition, they had to go through rounds of selection.
The rules of such competitions were similar. After fierce matches, only three designers managed to get in the final round.
Next, by judging their works, the judges would choose the best one, and the winner got the chance to continue.
Abby nodded with a smile. "Yes!"
However, she clenched her fists on the sofa.
Abby had also received news about this in the morning. Knowing that she had successfully entered the last round, she was not surprised at all. She was determined to win. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
However, she didn't know who the other two competitors were and planned to ask the garment association about it after finishing her work at hand.
However, she didn't expect Tina to be one of the two.
Perhaps, the moment she saw Tina when signing up for the competition, Abby had vaguely guessed that there would be such a result.
The panic in her heart was growing uncontrollably.
Old Master Amery interrupted in their conversation. "I've heard about it. It's a prestigious competition. There are also many official reports about it. All countries value it very much. It's a very glorious thing to show your works through this competition!"
His words were objective.
This international competition was a rare opportunity for the domestic fashion design industry. If one designer could get a place in the competition, it would be an outstanding achievement and glory for both the brand and the designer.
Therefore, the headquarters attached great importance to it and assigned Abby to compete.
Old Master Amery laughed heartily and continued, "Haha, three people entered the final round, and two of them are Tina and Abby! Our family takes up two of them and has a sixty percent chance to win. In the end, no matter which one of you gets the chance, we win!"
He said so because he considered both Tina and Abby as family members. Tina was a descendant, and Abby had been raised in the Amery family since she was a child. He hoped that they could get along well with each other. Besides, he wanted Tina to feel at home.
However, hearing this, Old Madam Amery was somewhat unhappy.
In the end, she couldn't help being mean and sneered, "She? How could she compare with Abby? Well, every dog has his day. I think she was just lucky. But Abby is different. She is a talented girl who has been recognized as a design genius at a young age. And now, she has become a young female designer well-known at home and abroad!"
She took Abby to the Amery family in person and raised her. It could be said that Old Madam Amery had cultivated Abby by herself. Consequently, she was very proud of Abby s success.
Isla, who was focused on eating the lollipop, said with an earnest face, "But my mother is very excellent!"
Old Madam Amery would have refuted more strongly if someone else said this. However, in the face of Isla, she could not lose her temper.
Old Master Amery looked at his wife with a little warning look and then said with a smile, "Anyway, do your best. We are waiting for your good news!"
Tina smiled faintly.
Abby forced a graceful smile.
Some noises came from the entrance, and then a servant came in and reported, "Miss Abby, you have a visitor!"
It was Silvia, Abby's design assistant.
Seeing this, Abby stood up and said apologetically, "Everyone, I have something to do here, so I have to go upstairs first!"
She brought Silvia into her bedroom.
When Abby pulled out a chair and sat down, she found Silvia standing there with a somewhat uneasy look in her eyes.
Abby frowned. "What's wrong with you?"
Silvia licked her lips and shook her head, stammering. "Nothing. Nothing serious!"
When she saw Tina downstairs, she couldn't help but think of the last time she came to the Amery family. That little girl accidentally bumped into her and knocked the design drafts scattered on the steps...
Perhaps because she had secrets, she always felt that Tina already knew something.
Silvia wanted to say something but stopped on second thought, wondering whether she should tell Abby about this matter. However, she felt that she might be overthinking it. After weighing it over
and over again, she finally swallowed her words.
Abby, immersed in her thoughts, did not ask any more questions.
She was sure that Tina would be her biggest obstacle for the GDA International Fashion Exhibition.
Abby raised her beautiful eyes elegantly and asked her assistant, "Are there any new designs?"
"Yes!" Silvia nodded.
She opened the handbag and took out a thick stack of designs.
Abby took them and looked through them one by one. Her hands moved quickly, and her beautiful eyebrows furrowed deeper and deeper.
After scanning the last one, she directly raised her hand and threw all of them into the trash can next to her.
Seeing this, Silvia asked cautiously, "Can't all these designs work?"
Abby didn't bother to look at the trash can. She grumpily frowned and said, "Of course not! These are all pieces of trash. None of them had a sparkle and could only end up in a trash can. The GDA International Fashion Exhibition is coming, and I need the designs! I want to ensure success. I must get some excellent works that can help me win the place!"
A worried expression emerged on Silvia's face.
Abby looked at her and ordered, "Go back and let them continue to draw for me. Stay up late, and don't stop for a moment. Don't allow those who can't handle any works to sleep! I believe that something good is waiting ahead!"
