Translator: 549690339
Xaviera Evans was somewhat surprised. She didn’t expect that someone would dare to destroy the materials at the site of the competition. If caught, not only would they be disqualified from the competition; they could hardly remain in the design field in the future.
All the people present were renowned designers who wouldn’t lose their temper, yet their assistants were outraged. The situation was awkward in the material area.
Upon entering, Xaviera saw a destroyed gray bead on the table.
The gray bead and the Magic Jade Bead looked very alike, but the colors they revealed under light were entirely different. Xaviera did not choose the gray bead, but still did not understand why someone would destroy it.
Xaviera paid no mind and headed towards her own materials, but the spot was empty. She frowned, walked up to a staff member and asked, “Where is the Magic Jade Bead I reserved?”
Yigol Mamet said he was the first to reserve materials. If they were gone now, it meant someone had secretly taken her materials.
The staff member had an embarrassed look. He did not have time to deal with the materials of a newcomer. The most important thing now was to find out who destroyed the material.
An older staff member nearby urgently reminded: “The ZR President has also arrived. It won’t look good if an incident occurs. Let’s resolve Xaviera’s problem first, and then figure out who destroyed the material.”
At this moment, Howard Scot came over.
After checking the surveillance, the staff confirmed: “The last Magic Jade Bead was taken by Mr. Scot.”
All eyes fell on Howard Scot. In the meeting room behind the material room, the ZR President also slowly looked up.
Xaviera’s eyes were deep. “Mr. Scot, taking one’s own materials according to reservations is a competition rule. Do you also need a Magic Jade Bead? I recall your work is mainly in dark colors. You shouldn’t need such a vibrant bead. So why did you take the Magic Jade Bead you didn’t need?”
The atmosphere became awkward as everyone looked at Howard Scot, puzzled.
Today’s competition could be described as full of ups and downs. Materials were destroyed, and someone wrongly took another’s Magic Jade Bead. The two incidents had the person in charge of the competition frowning, “Mr. Scot, could you please explain why you took the Magic Jade Bead?”
Xenia Jaak was furious: “I guess Mr. Scot didn’t take it for his own use, but for Zara Woods! Did Zara also reserve a Magic Jade Bead? I don’t think so. So why did you take others’ materials?”
Yigol Mamet suddenly remembered, when the materials were being reserved, Zara asked him to get them first. He had felt something was off at that time.
At this point, Zara walked in and gently asked, “What happened? Mr. Scot, why are you here too? Everyone… what is going on?”
Yigol Mamet’s eyes darkened, “Zara, did you ask Howard to help you take the materials? Am I right?”
Zara looked innocent: “Yes, what’s wrong?”
“But the materials you reserved were gray beads, so why did you have Howard take Xaviera’s Magic Jade Bead, did you already use it?”
There was pin-drop silence in the room.
The intense gazes landed on Zara.
Zara blinked her innocent eyes, full of confusion and bewilderment. Paired with her pale petite face, she looked utterly baffled and pitiful.
“Yes, I did reserve the gray bead, and what I asked Mr. Scot to get for me was indeed the gray bead. This….”
Zara paused, suddenly widened her eyes, her voice slightly trembling: “Could it be that Mr. Scot took the wrong one? You gave me Xaviera’s material? Our materials look quite similar. It’s normal to make a mistake, but… I have already used it, what… what should we do?”
Zara looked distressed, unconsciously reddening her eyes, appearing pathetically distressed, “Xaviera, I didn’t know this was your material. I’m sorry, it… was my mistake. I hope you can forgive me….”
Everyone was stunned, and the person in charge also wore an awkward expression on their face.
This was the first time they had encountered such a situation in all the competitions they had held. A designer taking the wrong material was not supposed to happen. Apart from having design skills, the foundation of becoming a designer was also the ability to distinguish between different materials. If they couldn’t tell materials apart, did they have any qualification to be a designer?
