The host spoke again on the stage.,

"Thank you for your support and participation. Now, let's tabulate the results. Contestant No. 1, eight votes; No. 2, five votes; No. 3, 18 votes; No. 4, 5 votes; and No. 5, 17 votes. First, I would like to thank you all for your support and for allowing us to have a satisfactory ending. Miss No. 4, and No. 2, thank you for your support!

", The two participants who were the firsts to be invited were eliminated. The host shook hands with them and expressed his gratitude. Then, he issued an envelope with the rewards to them respectively. He then gave the rewards and gifts to contestant No. 1 and Alicia., Holding the gift, the smile on Alicia's face looked so bitter that she couldn't hide it. How could she lose with just one vote? What a joke!, Hearing the announcement, Frederick felt helpless. It seemed that his vote had screwed up Alicia's chance at winning. At this moment, he was upset., He had never looked away from Alicia, but he clearly knew that she had not looked at him, not even once. Even if she did, it was not as sweet and as loving as before. It was an icy-cold glare. She was blaming him, and he could clearly feel it!, Then, everyone's attention was on the champion. The host invited Hannah to the front of the stage. After giving the prize to her personally, he exclaimed with much enthusiasm.,

"Miss Hannah is not only good-looking but also good at acting. I didn't expect her design to be so professional and unique too. Today's grand prize is really worthy of her reputation! Congratulations...

", Hannah?, The name was extremely familiar. Alicia looked at the tall, gorgeous woman on the stage. Her silver dress was shining in the spotlight. She was very elegant and graceful too!, It turned out that she was the heroine of the gossip!, No wonder..., Feeling devastated, Alicia felt a bone-chilling pain of betrayal. All those small trivial things that she previously didn't care about became the reason for the pain in her heart at this moment., When she thought of the days when she would just sleep for a few hours to take care of his Grandma so that he didn't have to worry, she felt that it was just a waste of effort. She wanted to have a harmonious and happy marriage with him... Yet, she didn't expect that she would be wronged and all of her hard work to please him would be in vain. After all, it was nothing in his eyes!, She treated him as her other half, but how did he treat her? A servant, a shield, or perhaps even nothing!, She couldn't compete with his woman. He even got his friend to vote for an outsider? No, maybe in his eyes, Alicia was an outsider who meant nothing to him!, She felt that her feelings for him were wasted again. She felt that she had fed her heart to an unappreciative wolf!, It was like being pushed into a deep, dark abyss. Alicia's heart was in pain and she couldn't breathe at all!, At this time, Hannah's voice that was full of laughter reached her ears.,

"Thank you! I'm just lucky! Thank you for showing your support! All the contestants were excellent. However, as a professional designer, I have won by a little. I'm grateful for your affirmation. I will continue to work hard!

", The humble attitude of Hannah's was very pleasing. As soon as she finished speaking, everyone clapped their hands and some even shouted her name.

"Hannah, Hannah...

", After taking a bow, Hannah lifted her hair shyly and looked at the direction of Frederick. On the stage, the host noticed her sparkling earrings at a glance.,

"Miss Hannah, you are being too humble! Are you wearing your own design too? It looks really fashionable! The earrings are very matching too! Hey, are those the diamond earrings of 'Blossom Series' from AT Jewelry? I heard that it's the most famous design this year and it's very valuable. There are only three sets in each shop!

", She smiled in response.,

"Well, I didn't know! This is a gift from a dear friend! I love it very much. I think that it has brought me some good luck!

",

"Friend? Is he your boyfriend? Are you in a relationship now, Miss Hannah? I don't know which man is lucky enough to marry you! Was the man who you came with earlier on, the legendary Master Frederick? heard that you are quite close to him. Is he the one-

",

"It isn't what everyone thinks! If there's good news, I will inform everyone. Today, we'd better not talk about this topic, alright?

" She explained in a rush. The host noticed that he went off track too. Thus, he laughed it off and changed the topic back.,

"Congratulations to Miss Hannah again, and thank you, Miss Hannah, for your support for our event. Let's wish her luck in her future endeavors!

", When Alicia's sharp nails pierced her palm from her tight fists, she closed her eyes and exhaled slowly. The corner of her lips curled into a sneer as her heart was already numb. It was as if she had lost her, senses.,

"Now, let's continue with our event. Let's invite our top three designers. To be more specific, we have prepared a limited edition tie from Gentry. H for the men present! There are six colors in total and there's only one of each color in the whole world. All of them are labeled with hand-crafted embroidery. Each of our designers will choose one each. The men who voted for the designer are qualified to bid for the tie! The purpose of this, of course, is to allow the buyer to ask for a dance with our beautiful designer. Of course, you can give up the chance too. I would like to mention that Gentry. H is an elegant and expensive brand. We will donate part of the money from the bid to charity too! I would like to welcome everyone to join!

", Accompanied by a burst of warm applause, the host's voice was raised by a few decibels.,

"Next, let's invite today's champion, Miss Hannah, to choose the tie that she thinks is the most dashing for a gentleman. All men who voted for Miss Hannah just now can bid for it! Please take a look at the star chain in your hand. If you didn't vote for Miss Hannah, we can only say sorry! It's hard to get close to the big star Miss Hannah. Well, Miss Hannah has already chosen one. Gentlemen, please raise your hand...

", On the stage, she picked a low-key black tie with hidden patterns on it. Hannah fixed her gaze on Frederick as she chose the tie for him on purpose. However, at this time, he looked absent-minded and completely uninterested. He was even more annoyed because he had lost his right to bid., Soon, the bid for the tie went up to more than 100,000 dollars. The tie was taken away by a middle-aged rich businessman. Frederick was absent-minded throughout the whole process, not saying anything., As Hannah was being led down the stage, Alicia walked to the center. She chose a noble- looking wine-red tie with silver letters

"G. H

" embroidered on it. There were slanted irregular lines on the tie too. It was low-key yet not monotonous, domineering but not flamboyant., Before the host could make a sound, someone shouted straight away,

"80,000 dollars!

", Turning his head in the direction of the voice, Frederick's face darkened instantly., Search the website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
