Married by Accident, Taming the Billionaire

Chapter 448



Chapter 448 Turning the Tide! Overcoming Adversity
“I’m almost there. We’ll talk when we meet.”
As Cecelia answered the call, she was already making her way into the backstage area with a group of models and designer
Vencent Beck.
Upon seeing Cecelia, Morgan hurriedly called out to her, “Miss Linsey...”
But when he saw the green hand designer, Vencent, and the models who stood behind Cecelia, all done up in makeup, he was
perplexed. “They...”
“Calm down, Morgan. We’re facing an urgent situation. Our ‘Golden Years’ design theme is suspected to have been leaked, so
I’ve decided to use Vencent’s designs for this show.”
Cecelia immediately instructed her entourage, “You guys, Morgane the theme version right away!”
“Yes!”
Her team quickly got to work.
“Vencent, you need to get ready to go on stage!”
“Understood!”
With only a minute to go before the show, dozens of models were waiting at the entrance to the runway. Vencent was making
some last-minute adjustments to their makeup.
Originally, Morgan, who should have been the center of attention, found himself sidelined. He was dissatisfied with this turn of
events.
“Miss Linsey, since you chose Vencent’s designs at the last minute, what should I do with mine now? Today was supposed to be
the main showcase for my designs!”
“Morgan, I understand your frustration, but you should also be aware that our design theme has been leaked. Taylor Group
jumped the gun with their new product presentation. If we had gone ahead as planned, we would have been accused of
plagiarism.”

Cecelia tried to soothe Morgan’s emotions, “Don’t be too upset. We will investigate this matter after the show ends. You will have
more opportunities to showcase your designs in the future.”
Although Morgan was not pleased, he had no choice but to prioritize the bigger picture.
But deep down, he was still frustrated. He had worked tirelessly, only for Vencent to swoop in at the last minute, taking full
advantage. Who could stand such a situation?
He was eager to know how his designs had been leaked and who was responsible.
At the fashion show, the massive advertising screen quickly switched from displaying “Golden Years” to “Legends of the
Mountains and Seas.”
The theme music was changed to something more ancient in style, and the atmosphere and lighting were promptly adjusted.
The guests and reporters in the audience, having seen the news earlier, suspected that this had something to do with Taylor
Group’s fashion show. However, even if the Tangerine Group had Changed the name of the fashion show at the last minute, it
was doubtful they could proceed with their designs intact.
The voice-over narrator began the introduction, and the “Legends of the Mountains and Seas” fashion show officially began.
The first model walked out from the runway entrance, showcasing a unique and captivating design, like a throwback.
It was clear to anyone who had seen the news earlier that these outfits were entirely different from Taylor Group’s new products.
This was an entirely new collection!
It embodied elements from ancient Eastern myths, featuring bold and intricate designs that incorporated patterns of ancient
mythical creatures. The designs were stunning and exquisite, evoking the feeling of ancient legends coming to life.
As one model after another walked down the runway, it felt like the mythical creatures had come alive.
It was like a dynamic ancient painting unfolding before everyone’s eyes, leaving them in awe.
Reporters and fashion icons in the audience took photos, and there was widespread praise for these refreshing creations.
Backstage, Cecelia and Cynthia watched the live-screen broadcast and breathed a sigh of relief.

“Cecelia, I must admire your forward-thinking intelligence!”
Cynthia was deeply impressed by Cecelia’s quick thinking, believing she was incredibly talented.
She had asked Cynthia to prepare two teams of models in advance, just in case.
“Did you anticipate that Taylor Group might jump the gun with their fashion show and that their designs might clash with yours,
which is why you prepared this second plan?”
“That’s right! I had a hunch about it the moment they announced their new product presentation on the same day as us. Petunia
Taylor’s targeting of me was too obvious.”
“But what I’m curious about is how your design theme ended up being the same as theirs,” Cynthia couldn’t fathom which step
had gone wrong.
Cecelia’s eyes were sharp and wise. “We will find out eventually.”
Twenty minutes later, the “Legends of the Mountains and Seas” new product launch event concluded.
Chief designer Vencent Beck took all the models on stage, receiving flowers and applause from the entire audience. The media’s
focus was on him.
After today, this relatively unknown new designer has suddenly become a star and the biggest winner.Books Chapters Are Daily

In his closing statement, he thanked his boss for the guidance she provided in his design proposal, enabling this series to
achieve such perfection and success.
He was right; without Cecelia’s guidance on his design proposal, the collection would not have been as perfect and successful.
Following the fashion show, Cynthia sent her model team to leave, and the remaining backstage work would be taken care of by
the staff.
Next, Tangerine Group would host a celebratory dinner at the Celestial Hotel. Cecelia and her group went there, inviting the
guests in attendance. Everyone moved to the hotel.
Vencent neatly packed everything, placing each outfit carefully, and handed them over to the staff to transport back.

He was about to leave when Morgan intercepted him backstage.
Without a word, Morgan delivered a punch to his face, causing Vencent to step back, bumping into the wall.
“What are you doing, Morgan?”
“What do you think you’re doing?”
Losing his composure, Morgan angrily questioned, “Did you leak my design? And now your design is replacing mine as planned,
right? You’re just sitting there reaping the rewards, aren’t you?”
“No! I didn’t do that! If your design was leaked, you should ask yourself about it. The reason I got selected was that Miss Linsey
used my design to create a second backup. If yours hadn’t been compromised, I wouldn’t have had a chance to step onto the
stage today.”
Vencent explained with a serious expression.
“Do you think I’ll buy that nonsense? Do you think I didn’t notice what is between you and Miss Linsey? You’re just a bootlicker!
These honors were supposed to be mine! You have stolen them, bootlicker! It’s disgusting!”
“Morgan, you’ve misunderstood! What between me and Miss Linsey is clean. She’s just my boss, and I’m her subordinate...”
“Stop explaining. Do you think I’m blind?”
Morgan pushed him away and turned around. In his understanding, he believed that Vencent was undoubtedly exceptionally
skilled at bootlicking, or else he wouldn’t have been called in by Cecelia alone.
There’s no way such an opportunity would fall into the hands of an inexperienced newcomer!

At the Celestial Hotel, in the Prosperity Hall.
After concluding the fashion show, Petunia Taylor led her design team to this location for the celebration.
She chose this location for the celebration because she had heard that Tangerine Group’s celebration was planned for the next-
door Peony Hall.

As they could see, Peony Hall was empty now. Petunia gave a cold smirk, knowing that this time, the celebratory dinner would
be hosted solely by Taylor Group.
Taylor Group’s new product presentation had been highly successful, and news about their designs had already been released.
The industry’s response was positive, with everyone praising Taylor Group’s “Golden Years” collection for being high-end and in
tune with the times.
The celebratory dinner had been underway for some time. Petunia summoned her assistant and inquired, “Our new product
presentation went smoothly, and Tangerine Group is scheduled to start half an hour later. What’s the situation over there? Did
they cancel their event?”
Petunia was waiting to see Cecelia’s misfortune!
