Chapter 24
Aurora POV:-
"Good morning everyone, hope you all had a good night here but now the battle starts," Miss Kaitie
announced over the mic while Mr Joshua was standing beside her again with that stiff face.
"She is hot!"
I heard a man whisper beside Emily who rolled her eyes. "Men!" She whispered.
"Well he is not lying, is he?" I asked, being jealous over that perfect slim body of our hostess. .
"Will you both shut up and focus on the big picture? We are here to win this battle. Our future depends
on this and you both are worried about her figure. Grow up!" Susan scolded us in a mere whisper but
looking at the features of the girl sitting beside her I guess she heard it.
Susan followed my gaze and faked a smile to the other girl who glanced at Susan head to toe and
rolled her eyes before glancing back at the stage where Katie was speaking.
"Now, let me introduce you all to the judges of our show: Everyone in the jewelry business world knows
him. The man who has The ornaments jewels award under his cap. Please welcome, Kevin Rawls. The Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
head designer of Our brand 'The Belle…"
We all clapped while some hooted when he entered on the stage, wearing a formal suit and his
trademark smile. He waved his hand at us nodding.
"Now the second Judge of this show, She was Miss world in 2011, judged many beauty pageants and
the brand ambassador of our Jewellery house, Miss Maya Smith…"
It received an even louder clapping from us. I could feel goosebumps all over my body right now. It's
not likeI have not met them before but at this moment I am standing here not because of who my dad
is, but at this moment I am standing here because I deserve to be here. I deserve to meet them on my
own.
"And last but not the least please welcome, Alexendrios Kyschove, one of the sponsors of our show.
The billionaire businessman from Russia."
"Wow! I am having hots for him, Aurora, just look at that hot body." Emily whispered to me slowly but
obviously Susan heard her and she earned a death glare from her. Emily rolled her eyes and glanced
back at the stage.
"So, these are our judges, we have three rounds to decide who will earn the mentorship under Kevin
Rawls and not to forget the ten million Dollars plus the opportunity to work in our upcoming designs.
" hm! Whatever, I know I will be the winner." I heard someone and glanced at the source of the voice. A
man was sitting with an overconfident smirk on his face.
Susan thinned her lips while I just ignored him. It's a healthy competition. I didn't want to get into
unnecessary politics. My mom used to say that do your work and let unnecessary people talk. They do
that because they don't have anything else to do.
"So, our first round will start in the evening. You all have approximately 8 hours to make your designs
and then you have to present it to our judges with a two hundred words explanation behind the
inspiration of your designs."
Katie smiled and get off the stage with Mr Joshua following her. All the judges walked past the
contestants to boost our morale with their kind words. I waited for my turn and smiled at Mr Rawls who
recognised me at one glance.
"Aurora! Is that really you sweetheart?" Mr Rawls asked.
I nodded in affirmation. "Yes, Mr Rawls." Susan and Emily smiled at him as well as nodding at them.
"You told me that my designs lack freshness, since then I am trying hard trying hard on my designs and
the result is in front of your eyes." I said, referring to getting selected in the competition. He patted my
hand.
"I am happy for your success, Best of luck Aurora kings." He said and walked to the other contestants.
Then I met Alexandrios Kyschove, a man with a charming smile and body. Emily cleared her throat as
she offered her hand to him. "It's so nice to meet you Mr Kyschove."
Susan and I bit our lips at Emily's dreamy eyes. "It's nice meeting you as well Miss…" he glanced at the
Identity card on her neck. "Emily. " he said, accepting her hand and shaking it.
"Um! Miss…" he said politely trying to free his hand but Emily was still shaking it as if she was stuck in
the moment.
Susan kicked her tightly and she left Alexandrios hand with a shirk. "What?" She barked at Susan who
smiled apologetically at Alexandrios.
"She was a little lost seeing you, Mr Kyschove, actually she is a big fan of yours," Susan tried to cover
Emily's contemptible moment.
"Really, since when you are following me, Emily?" He asked Em, frowning.
Emily again made the blunder with her words. "What time is it?" She asked him.
He checked his wristwatch and answered. "9 o'clock exactly."
"According to the time, I have been following you for forty five minutes."
"Oh!" He chuckled, shaking his head and nodded at us. "Best of luck for the show," saying that he
moved on to other contestants.
Emily fanned her face and she looked at his moving figure. "Such a hot piece of ass he is!"
"I will burn your ass if you ruin this show for me, mind you Emily!!!" Susan warned her.
"Gals…" I almost yelled at both of them to stop their fright. "What?" They spoke at the same time.
" We have only six hours and I need to work on the designs so if your buckering session is over then
let's go."
They both agreed. "Yes, let's go."
Once we reached our room, we sat at our particular places with our particular work in hand. While I
design Emily was doing research on the idea of design. Susan was creating PPT files for the
presentation as she was the one with IT skills among us.
"So this is what I have in mind!" I showed them the basic rough sketch of my design. "The blooming
rose."
