Chapter 115
She was stunningly beautiful.
Flora’s brow furrowed at the sight of the newcomer, a trace of resignation flickering in her eyes.
Why was she here?
Eden and the judges were so shocked they literally jumped up from their seats.
They stared at the woman in disbelief.
Why was Queen Algria here?
Eden was the first to hurry over, his attitude somewhat ingratiating. “Queen Algria, what brings you here?”
He was always good at currying favor, or else he wouldn’t have landed his position today.
The cameras had already been trained on Queen Algria, so everyone in the live stream heard Eden call her “Queen Algria,”
[OMG! Queen Algria is here! Am I dreaming?]
[To the comment above, I tried pinching myself, and it hurts. Definitely not dreaming!]
[Can I still make it to the Grand Theater? Even Queen Algria is here. This contest will go down in history!]
The whole place was buzzing. The audience took out their phones, snapping photos non–stop.
In their lifetimes, they were witnessing Queen Algria in person. This was a story to tell their descendants!
“I happened to have some business and came to Cedarvale. I saw the trending news and learned about what was happening here. Someone is slandering my friend, and naturally, I had to come and see for myself.” Queen Algria spoke with a smile.
[The lady said someone’s slandering her friend? Who could it be? Yvonne?]
[I did some research! Yvonne once went to the States and won a competition, and it was Queen Algria who presented the award! I heard that Queen Algria had even taken her design afterward.]
[So Queen Algria really is here to support Yvonne. This is going to be good; let’s see how Flora reacts now.)
[Add one from me! Flora is so annoying. Someone needs to put her in her place!]
Eden, too, immediately assumed Queen Algria was referring to Yvonne. He had been the team leader when they went to the States for the competition. He knew about Queen Algria presenting the award to Yvonne and the high praise she had for her.
Not just Eden, even Yvonne herself thought so. Queen Algria coming to support her was something she had never imagined. Proudly, she stepped down from the stage to approach Queen Algria. “Queen Algria, it’s been a while. I didn’t expect our next meeting to be under these circumstances. Right and wrong have their own justice, and I believe I will receive fairness.”
She raised her voice deliberately. “Those who use despicable means to gain attention will eventually face their consequences.” Yvonne’s words confirmed her close relationship with Queen Algria and sharply criticized Flora, showcasing her fearless spirit. However, Queen Algria merely glanced at her indifferently. Her gaze was filled with the arrogance of a Queen. Her voice was even colder. “Who are you?”
Yvonne’s smile froze.
“I’m Yvonne, don’t you remember? I won first place at the youth fashion design contest, and you awarded me personally. You even took my winning design…”
Queen Algria squinted as if thinking, then after a few seconds, spoke again. “I remember now.”
Yvonne brightened and was about to speak, only to hear Queen Algria continue. “My daughter took the dress. She used it as a rag for cleaning the floors.”
Queen Algria’s piercing gaze tumed to her. “What, was that plagiarized as well?”
“What?” Yvonne’s face turned pale. She nearly lost her balance.
