No Escape From the Ex-husband by Summer Winters

Chapter 0096 

Naturally, a lot of things wouldn’t match up if one jumped straight into work at the exhibition after a long rest. 

Samantha was no exception. She arrived very early. The first thing she did was to clarify the duties of everyone there. 

She noted them down one by one in a little notebook. To prevent any mistakes, she even checked the order of the models‘ appearances and the order of the clothes several times. She was finally reassured and sat down beside Kendrick. 

“Good morning, Mr. Ford.” 

She put away her little leather notebook and twirled a pen between her fingers. 

Kendrick looked at her work ID, which was hung on a blue ribbon around her n*eck. 

He demanded, “Take it off.” 

“If I take it off, no one will know who I am. I’m not as famous as you are, Mr. Ford.” 

Samantha rolled her eyes at Kendrick. She had heard a lot of gossip amongst the staff when she walked over. Many of them seemed to know the events at the ball that night. 

“If you’re talking about what happened at the ball, I admit that I was entranced. I 

can’t help being famous.” 

Kendrick’s icy expression showed a hint of a smile. 

He lifted his hand to touch Samantha’s hair, but she dodged him. 

“Please consider your actions in a public place.” 

Samantha did not like rumors like these. 

She hadn’t done anything to seduce Kendrick. Yet, in the eyes of those women, she 

was just a foxy seductress. 

They even stated that she had used an extreme strategy. 

“Does Sophia the mighty designer still bother about these rumors?” Kendrick 

withdrew his hand and asked. 

“Of course I don’t, but I don’t want my superior to do strange things to the employees 

again.” 

She emphasized the word “employees“, and she did not speak loudly. Despite that, 

Linda, who was seated behind them, heard her loud and clear. 

Kendrick just pressed his l*ps together and stayed silent. He was no longer smiling. 

Samantha grew more excited as the number of media personnel and reporters 

increased next to them. 

The SL Series was the first series that she had worked on domestically as the chief designer. There would be many unexpected problems in this series. However, it would not affect how her work would be displayed to the country. 

But there was no chance for her to appear at this SL Series. She did not need to go 

onstage except for when receiving the award. 

As time passed, the exhibition finally began. The lights and cameras of the medial and the introduction of the host marked the beginning of a grand event. 

There were extravagant gowns that fought for attention, tall models and gorgeous 

eye makeup that showed the beauty of the artwork without holding back. 

Samantha was always the most thrilled when the model turned around. 

It was only at exhibitions like this that people could be used to showcase the beauty 

of artwork. 

It was the first time Kendrick had seen Samantha being so animated. She was 

wholeheartedly watching every model ascend the steps to present the artwork on their bodies under countless lights- 

It seemed as though Samantha’s eyes were the focus of everything. They were. 

shining brightly. 

Kendrick really wanted to embrace her. He wanted to burn himself into her eyes, so 

that he could not be erased.

Linda looked on with jealousy at every gaze Kendrick fixed on Samantha. She had 

never seen him look so intense before. 

Shortly after, she released her tightly clenched fist and murmured, “Sophia, do you 

really think that everything will go well for you?” 

Her small voice was quickly buried in the chaos and noise. The smile on Linda’s face 

was frightening. 

Everyone’s attention was captured by the beautiful artwork throughout the 

exhibition, until finally the event gradually neared its end. 

Everyone calmed down from their excitement. Samantha breathed out a long breath, 

as though a buren was finally being relieved. 

The designers of the clothes went up onstage in order. 

Samantha quietened down and took a sip of water. She lowered her eyes and felt 

rather tired.

“That’s your

“The artwork has already represented me.” 

Samantha’s l*ps curled, 

Kendrick looked at her. There wasn’t much desire in her eyes, only a pure fixation. 

on artwork. It was fascinating. 

Linda’s smile was slowly contorting in the dark. 

Then, the host followed the script that had been prepared in advance, and began 

reading out the names of the designers. 

“The clothes that were inspired by piano keys were from the chief designer of the SL 

Series, Ms. Meadows.” 

The host’s words stopped Helen in her tracks. 

Helen stared at the host, her eyes wide.

At the same time, Samantha looked at Helen in shock. She suddenly shot up and looked at Kendrick. 

“Mr. Ford, that was Helen’s design!” 

Kendrick’s expression became cold. “Get on the stage.” 

“But that isn’t me…” 

“Get on the stage. This is a live broadcast.” 

Kendrick emphasized the importance of the order once more. 

Samantha glanced at Helen onstage, who looked like she was in despair. She bit her 

lower l*p and took a heavy step forward. 

As the deputy manager of the design department, Helen had put in the same amount. 

of effort to be able to exhibit her work in this grand event. She had never imagined 

that this would be the result.
