Chapter 753 A Design Against the Theme
Quit!
Hearing that, Sophie seemed to be stimulated and suddenly stood up, shaking her head in a rush, "No, I won't quit from the competition, I am determined not to quit!"
She had managed to get into this competition and memorized so many designs, in order to get a better ranking, so that Stanley would know that Violet wasn't the only one who could design, she could too, so she was also worthy of him, and he would, by then, definitely be impressed with herself.
So she could never back out of the competition, and if she did, all the hard work she had done would be for nothing.
"Are you sure you don't want to quit from the competition?" Aimee narrowed her eyes.
Sophie nodded, "I'm sure."
Aimee shrugged her shoulders, "In that case, sit down and continue the game, I hope you won't regret it later."
With that, she put the microphone down.
Sophie sat down anxiously again, her heart beating like thunder, and she also had a vague feeling of something bad.
What did that mentor mean she won't regret it later?
For some reason, she always felt like there was something in that mentor's words, as if she was reminding her of something and mocking her.
Was it her illusion?
Sophie glanced up towards the judges' table and shook her head slightly as she watched Aimee was writing something down.
Probably she was overthinking it, it should be that this mentor was concerned that she would be nervous and not be able to perform in all the later rounds and that was why she was asked to quit from the competition.
Thinking, Sophie put her head back down and went back to trying to figure out how to draw a design that fit this theme.
The moment she put her head just down, Aimee approached Violet beside her, "Violet, do you think this Sophie is a stupid person? I even gave her the chance to avoid losing her reputation, and she didn't even cherish it."
Violet gave her a blank look, "Your opportunity is unknown, who would understand it? So instead of saying that you were giving her a chance, you might as well say that you were deliberately planting a seed of doubt in her heart, so that she would frequently road out of the game afterwards."
Aimee smiled, "Haha, it's still you understand me."
"Alright, stop talking, keep watching these designers and see if there are any problems with the others besides Sophie." Violet said with a serious expression.
The day before, when she and Aimee both checked the profiles of these contestants in the study, many of them were too simple and not well known, so they didn't know the strength of this part of the contestants, let alone if they entered like Sophie.
Hearing Violet's words, Aimee also got serious and stopped snickering and started secretly observing these contestants.
About two hours later, the first round of group play had ended.
The staff collected all of the contestants' designs and took them to all of the judges on the panel.
Offstage, Sophie's two hands were clasped tightly together, her ten fingers picking at each other, showing how nervous and unsettled she was inside.
Next to her, the contestant she was close to came over, "Sophie, what do you think of your design?"
Sophie lowered her eyelids and forced a smile, "I ...... I feel okay, I guess."
To be honest, she had absolutely no confidence and her heart was empty.
She didn't know what to call a design that fit the theme of 'night', so she had no choice but to blend together some designs she had jotted down, draw a dress, and paint it black, and turn it in. The good thing was that this was the first round of group matches and would not be eliminated, so she would have to fight..
If she would have been eliminated, she might have actually been eliminated.
But this competition today had also taught her she had to dictate the theme.
So when she got back, she'd have to get a good idea of what themes had been used for those games, and maybe it would come in handy later.
Next to her, the contestant heard Sophie say that she felt okay and smiled, "It seems that you have a lot of confidence in yourself, also, your design is very agile, you can definitely be assigned under a good mentor. I heard that the ten contestants with the best results can choose with their mentors in both directions, if a mentor chooses you and you don't want to go under this mentor, you can propose and go to the one you want to go under a mentor, but I ......"
The contestant sighed, "I just don't have confidence in myself, so I'm sure I won't make it to the top ten, I'm just hoping now that I'll be lucky and end up being assigned under Violet and Aimee, they're in a group, and when the jewelry design contestants join in later in the competition, Aimee will still be able to help me choose the most suitable jewelry design partner for me."
Hearing the contestants long for Violet and that Aimee so much, Sophie's palms squeezed tightly with an grim expression on her face.
But then, she thought of something and looked at the contestant, "Wait, you just said, Violet ...... No, Violet is in the same group as that Aimee?"
"Right." The contestant nodded, "Didn't you know? It's posted on the bulletin board today, they're a team and they're still best friends."
Friend!
Sophie's face changed.
That Aimee and Violet were actually friends.
Then what she had just thought was that Aimee was concerned about her being nervous and so advised her to withdraw from the competition would not make sense.
Would Violet's friends care about her?
And would Violet not tell her friends who she was?
Apparently, Violet would tell, so this Aimee must not have a good feeling about her either.
The so-called talking her out of the competition wasn't out of concern for her, that she would regret it later, it wasn't out of fear that she would be nervous as well.
Rather, they're going to band together to screw her, so if she doesn't drop out and they screw her until she drops out.
Thinking of this, Sophie's body trembled, and when she looked at the two people, Violet and Aimee, her eyes became very vicious and filled with gut-wrenching hatred. The contestant was caught off guard by the sight of her like this, and the entire group was taken aback by her, covering their mouths in a hurry.
Man, this Sophie's appearance was too terrifying, as if she was about to eat someone.
Moreover, she had an expression of hating Violet and Aimee, could it be that there was some kind of problem between her and Violet and Aimee?
The contestant bit her lip, wondering what could be the beef between these three, but she had already decided in her mind to stay away from this Sophie.
Someone who is so temperamental and doesn't know how to conceal herself obviously could not befriended.
At the judges' table, Aimee found Sophie's design.
She had thought that the previously faint-hearted and flustered Sophie would definitely not be able to draw anything, but to her surprise, after viewing Sophie's design, she realized that Sophie had actually drawn something anyway.
To be honest, it was pretty good.
But it did not feel right.
"Violet, look." Aimee handed Sophie's work to Violet.
Violet put down another designer's work and took the one Aimee handed her, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, "This is Sophie's?"
"Yeah, it looks pretty good, doesn't it?" Aimee said as she pointed to the black dress.
Violet nodded, "It's really not bad, but it doesn't feel right."
"Right, right, right." Hearing Violet's comment, Aimee nodded her head repeatedly, "I feel it against the harmony, except I am not a clothing designer, I just know that it doesn't feel right, but yet I can't tell, Violet, what is going on?"
"It's simple, patchwork." Violet sneered as she put down Sophie's design, then pointed her finger at the sleeve spot, "The tulle design on this sleeve is John's, I've seen it in magazines, while this neckline design is mine, and the waist closure is Tina's."000
