Over the last three days, Yvonne Harrington spent every moment in the studio, working closely with Wu Lijing to perfect her creation. Meanwhile, at the Xi Corporation, everyone was bustling about due to the approaching design competition finals. It felt as if everyone wished they could split themselves into three to get everything done, especially in the president's office, where Lisa had been in and out of Arvin Douglas's office more frequently than ever before."I wonder how Yunchu is doing with her work," Lisa mused during a brief respite, glancing at the files on her desk. She thought about Yvonne Harrington, who had been on leave these past few days, engrossed in her design. A sense of concern washed over her, knowing how hard Yunchu was pushing herself.These three hectic days felt like a battle. Finally, on the last day, Lisa breathed a sigh of relief as she surveyed the well-organized venue. As long as each contestant could bring and display their work on the day of the final

The shadow slowly approached the garden gate, becoming clearer as it drew nearer to the light. When Arvin Douglas finally stood just five steps away from the gate, Yvonne Harrington felt an immense relief, letting out a long breath she hadn't realized she was holding.She never would have guessed that the figure outside the gate would be Arvin Douglas. Seeing the pale look on Yvonne Harrington's face, Arvin Douglas frowned and walked up, reaching through the gate to open it for her. Inadvertently, he touched her hand, noticing how cold it was."It's you..."Seeing Yvonne Harrington's state, Arvin Douglas finally understood what had happened. He had been standing too far away, scaring her. It wasn't entirely his fault; he could tell that Yvonne Harrington didn't want others to know about their relationship. But tonight, it was very late. He hadn't told Wu Lijing about their relationship, so he had waited at a distance, not realizing that the darkness had frightened Yvonne Harrington.

After sending the two children to school, Arvin Douglas first took Yvonne Harrington to her studio with her work, and then they headed together to the final competition venue. Throughout the journey, Yvonne Harrington felt unusually restless, as if something was bound to happen, making her feel that today would not be an ordinary day.Yvonne Harrington's nervousness seemed to have affected the atmosphere, and Arvin Douglas, who was driving, could sense her unease, prompting him to glance at her. "Are you very nervous?"Upon hearing this, Yvonne Harrington almost rolled her eyes at him. It was obvious, so why did he have to point it out? Did he expect her to cry in his arms for comfort?Although she thought this, Yvonne Harrington didn't show it on her face. Instead, she took a deep breath and lowered her eyelids. "It's okay, after all, it's the final."Saying she wasn't nervous was a lie. In reality, Yvonne Harrington was extremely anxious. This was her first time participating in

Yvonne Harrington finally let out a sigh of relief after ensuring that all the jewelry in her hands had been redesigned and double-checking them against the prepared documents."Alright, now it's truly finished."Wu Lijing and Arvin Douglas also felt relieved upon hearing her words. What they feared most was not the damage to the works, but rather the destruction of Yvonne Harrington's long-term efforts by those villains in one night."Your final round starts at ten, right?"Wu Lijing glanced at the clock on the wall and suddenly realized that it was already 9:40!Yvonne Harrington followed his gaze and was shocked to see that there were only twenty minutes left before the submission deadline.This realization sent her into a panic. She quickly gathered up the jewelry designs and grabbed the prepared documents.By the time she reached the door, Arvin Douglas was already in the driver's seat. As soon as Yvonne Harrington got in, he started the car and headed for the exhibition ve

Because Arvin Douglas was, after all, too conspicuous; as the president of a company, many people knew him. So when these people saw him walking with an unremarkable woman, they all cast curious glances and showed a strong desire to know more about the gossip.Yvonne Harrington tried her best to remain calm and ignore the gazes around her, appearing composed as she followed Arvin Douglas into the venue. At this time, all the attendees had already viewed the exhibits, and some excited designers were gathered in groups discussing the works.The host, seeing that it was almost time, announced, "Ladies and gentlemen, our design exhibition competition will begin in five minutes. Please take your seats in the main hall."Although reluctant, everyone returned to their seats in the main hall, eagerly awaiting the start of the event. When the scheduled time arrived, the lights in the venue suddenly dimmed, leaving only the stage illuminated. The host stepped onto the stage and began the intr
