Chapter 431: 431: So the President Likes Yigol Mamet!

However, the assistant turns towards the side: “Is Mr. Yigol Mamet here?”

Everyone else: “?”

Mr. Yigol Mamet looks up, utterly confused.

The assistant walks up to him and gives a small smile, “Mr. Mamet, you accidentally left your watch in the office. The boss asked me to bring it to you. He also said that you like lattes and asked me to get one for you. He even told me to add extra sugar. I hope it’s to your liking. If not, I can get another one.”

“He told me you should avoid drinking too much coffee, or you won’t be able to sleep at night which may affect your rest.”

Yigol Mamet pouts, appearing upset. Does he think he can bribe him to take over the family business with just a latte?

However, the others are confused, their expressions gradually turning to shock, “…” No way!

Isn’t the CEO of ZR fond of Xaviera? Why was Mr. Yigol Mamet’s watch in the president’s office? Why does he know that Mr. Yigol Mamet loves his lattes extra sweet? Why did he even ask the assistant to buy a cup specially?

Xenia Jaak widened her eyes and looked back and forth between Xaviera and Yigol. Then she leapt up excitedly, face turning red, and shouted in disbelief, “Could it be…that the ZR President is not interested in Xaviera, but in Yigol Mamet instead?”

A collective gasp erupted from the crowd.

“Xaviera is just a diversion. The real person the ZR President is interested in is Yigol Mamet. He only invited Xaviera so that Mr. Mamet could accompany her in the guise of an assistant!”

“Yeah, the ZR President has always been indifferent to women. So this means he’s into…men!”

And just like that, the rumor that the ZR President was interested in Yigol had spread throughout the entire hall.

The dumbfounded Yigol Mamet was still standing in the same spot: “?”

Yigol Mamet’s face had turned pale, he thought, are you all out to get me?

Despite this, they were still here for a competition, the gossip was really just entertainment. The crowd quickly got back into the competition.

In order not to disturb the designers, the main door to the design hall was closed during the competition, preventing people from coming and going freely.

The designers had to complete a whole set of works within five days, which was a rather tight timeframe. As a result, the assistants were busy running around in a flurry.

Xaviera was busily designing the framework. Yigol Mamet was watching her with an admiring look on his face, “I finally understand the charm of jewelry design. If I were a woman, I’d definitely love to wear the jewelry you design. It’s so beautiful, it’s captivating just looking at the design!”

She carefully set gemstones into the necklace, which shone brilliantly under the light.

Time flies and five days pass, everyone seals their designs and hands them over to the judges for grading.

All the jewelry was put into opaque boxes, so no one could see other designers’ works.

All participants were waiting backstage, waiting to go on stage in turn after the draw. Models wore their jewelry to be displayed to the judges, and an average score was then determined based on the scores given by the judges.

Backstage, well-known designers grouped and chatted together, as did newcomers like Xenia, forming their own little cliques.

Xenia was extremely nervous, “Xaviera, I’m so nervous!”

“Only newcomers like you would be nervous. We’re all used to this. And Xaviera is a friend of Yvonne’s, her design skills must be very strong. She will definitely score high.”

At this moment, a sarcastic female voice chimed in.

The woman beside Zara Woods sounded haughty, “Jason, you’re a disciple of Mrs. Yvonne. You must know her friend, right? If she doesn’t have the design skills, how could she be a friend of Mrs. Yvonne’s?”

The atmosphere shifted instantly, becoming tense.

Jason is a disciple of Yvonne, and Xaviera is a friend of Yvonne’s. If either of them lost, it would be a loss of face for Yvonne. This was a battle of the century.

Who knew that Jason would just snort dismissively: “Who is Xaviera? I’ve never heard of her. Mrs. Yvonne has no such friend. I think someone just made up the relationship to climb up socially.”

Boom—

There was dead silence backstage.

Jason had never heard of Xaviera?

Zara Woods pretended to be surprised, “Mr. Jason, are you sure you’re not mistaken? Xaviera wouldn’t lie. She said in public that she is a friend of Mrs. Yvonne’s.”
