Chapter 362
Chapter 362:
Jenessa, who was busy fine-tuning the dress on Monica, blushed slightly at his words.
“You flatter me. This design isn’t solely my doing; it’s the culmination of our entire team’s dedication p>
After making the final tweaks, Jenessa completed the design and accompanied Monica to a studio for the cover shoot.
“Oh my God. This is so perfect p>
“This dress suits Monica perfectly p>
“Sloane is truly talented p>
“How did I never notice how charming Monica is before p>
Though the design hadn’t been publicly released yet, it was already commanding admiration from all present.
One enthusiast effusively predicted, “Sloane’s design is bound to set the trend in the market again p>
Meanwhile, Vinson, who had come specifically to observe, wore a distinctly displeased expression as he viewed the design showcased on Monica.
With over a decade of experience in the industry, Vinson immediately recognized that this photo shoot’s cover was poised to revolutionize fashion trends.
Ironically, the architects of this innovation were Sloane and Richard, two colleagues he had consistently disliked. How could he possibly stand it?
When Vinson appeared, Richard approached him deliberately and asked, “Vinson, you’ve seen Sloane’s design. You must be speechless now, right p>
After that interview, whenever Vinson saw Richard, he never missed a chance to throw a sarcastic comment his way. He was convinced that Monica, who had been chosen, was entirely wrong for the part.
Yet, the sample dress designed by Sloane seemed to be made for Monica, and she exceeded Sloane’s expectations, delivering an exceptional performance.
Anyone with a keen eye could tell that Monica and Sloane’s designs were a perfect match.
When the final cover was published, it would surely take the magazine to new heights.
Vinson was irked by Richard’s remarks but was not about to concede.
Before he could retort, someone else began to commend Richard.
“Mr. Lloyd, you did a fantastic job bringing Sloane on board. And Monica, what a superb model. You were right to pick her. You truly deserve your place as the top editor of our magazine, thanks to your vision and bravery p>
“Indeed, Monica was spectacular. Opting for a different model would have meant missing out on such a remarkable talent p>
Richard responded with a humble smile.
“I didn’t do much, really. I just trusted in Sloane’s talent and didn’t interfere too much. Today’s success is all Sloane’s p>
At this, the others nodded in agreement, praising Sloane’s skills.
Slowly, Richard became the center of a cheerful group, oblivious to Vinson’s presence just a stone’s throw away.
Feeling utterly overlooked, Vinson’s resentment deepened.
He glanced at Sloane and Monica, who were standing not far away, and considered the implications of the ongoing situation. He worried that if things continued as they were, Richard would only gain more influence at the magazine office.
The worst of it wasn’t just the thought of it; during the model audition, it was well-known that he had argued vehemently with Sloane and Richard to prevent Monica from being selected.
