While the tension was increasing, Savannah Wilson who was now sitting in the contestants section was unaware of the storm that was brewing.She was watching the models on the stage excitedly. Her decision to participate in the annual international fashion show was her own choice.She didn't announce it in the gallery or inform any staff except the people she was collaborating with. At the moment, her Radiance Gallery was flourishing and expanding internationally.But she always had this little nagging feeling at the back of her mind. It is all because of Kian that the gallery has become what it is today.She will be forever grateful to him but she cannot help her ambitious nature. With this fashion show, she could prove to everyone including herself that she was capable of the gallery's growth.Most importantly, she wanted to impress Kian. She wanted to be a woman worthy of being by his side."Alright! Enough of the cheers! I'm also happy to see these beautiful angels. If I wasn't str

Gasps rippled through the audience as Savannah turned around. The back of the dress dipped into a graceful V, revealing a translucent film embedded with a holographic fragment of the painting itself.It pulsed softly, as though the artwork lived and breathed on her spine. In a split second, the dress burst to light.The beautiful celestial blue hues were so refreshing and fulfilling. It filled everyone that gazed at it with joy.The originally plain dress suddenly appeared exceptionally stylish and trendy.Savannah who had silently and emotionlessly endured all their insults, smiled brightly. All traces of hopelessness and gloom disappeared.Soft, enchanting music played from the speakers and she began to sway her body gracefully.She was just like a lively fairy that left thousands of people spellbound.One of the judges who was awestruck raised a shaky finger as he whispered, "She didn't just inspire a dress. She turned serenity into silhouette!"Genevieve stared at Savannah wide-e

"Where have your minds wandered off to?" Savannah's soft, teasing voice traveled across the hall. "The reason I say it's a past that I would rather not revisit isn't because of my husband. They also instigated against him back then."Savannah lifted her face directly at the judging panel like she could see Kian."In the years that followed after he was framed, I faced several humiliations. People pointed fingers at me and accused me of being a loose woman. My parents and I were also expelled from our family.""To be honest," Savannah stroked the hem of the dress that had changed many beautiful hues. "There were many nights that I thought of committing suicide and ending it all. Life was really unbearable back then."The crowd gasped softly at the thought that the beautiful woman standing on stage wouldn't be here today if she had really ended it all.Savannah was talking with such a sweet smile as if the past was just a trivial matter to her. But everyone could sense the pain and helpl

"I agree. Let's just go home," her companion tugged at her."Is that supposed to be a skirt? The fabric is not woven properly!" Another spectator pointed out."Don't tell me that model is trying to dance. She looks so stiff!""That's it. I'm leaving.""..."It wasn't that the other contestants were bad but Savannah's Echo of Eternity design was just too breathtaking.The audience couldn't unsee her performance and wanted to compare the rest with hers.Many of the contestants backstage who were yet to perform realized this as well. They could only shake their heads regretfully.Some even chose to withdraw. They had lost all will to compete. The bar was already set so high after Echo of Eternity's showcase, no matter how they struggle, they wouldn't be able to break it.Under normal circumstances, the international fashion show usually lasted all through late afternoon till the evening but since so many other contestants withdrew, the progress of the event was unusually fast.By two in

A total of twenty representatives stepped out from various aristocratic families, standing beside Vaughn Sinclair fiercely."This woman is indeed an enemy of my Blackwood family!" David Blackwood sneered, pointing at Savannah."If she is not handed over to us today, I will not rest!" The patriarch of the Russell's family gritted. Just thinking of the lives his family lost at Valoria Prime made his blood boil."Yes, no one can interfere today. She will pay for her crimes!" The patriarch of the Sterling's family spoke in a chilling tone."..."The hall fell silent, only the voices of the furious representatives of the aristocratic families could be heard.One after the other, they expressed their grievances, all pointing a finger at Savannah!"So this seemingly fragile woman really offended the aristocratic families?" A spectator whispered in shock."No wonder the elders say don't judge a book by its cover," another female spectator snorted coldly."To think that we were all moved by he
