Chapter 48 A Target of Public Criticism
Jane couldn't help but roll her eyes at William after having a quarrel with him and failing again. However, it seemed that he was no longer angry.
Jane found it unbelievable. It turned out that William was so childish that he would feel happy because of defeating her....
"Distinguished guests, I'm sorry. We have to change the schedule since there are something wrong with the exhibits tonight."
The host held the microphone, and his smile froze on his lips.
He couldn't afford to offend anyone of the guests present. What exactly had happened? All the guests had sat down. Wasn't it too late to say something went wrong?
"It doesn't matter. We come here not for dinner but for charity."
After the host finished speaking, a woman stood up and helped him remove the embarrassment.
The auction was delayed because of the exhibits, but the charity party had to continue.
"Mrs. Cart, do you have any idea how to continue the charity dinner?"
Someone in the crowd asked.
Jane maintained silent and was a little disappointed. She had worked hard to ask William to bring her here, but she didn't even have the chance to see the exhibits. She couldn't get luckier than this!
"Mrs. Cart, how about we design our own jewels and ask others to produce them for us? This is more meaningful."
Ada said with a smile. Mrs. Cart came from a wealthy family, and she had been doing charity for decades. She was prestigious.
"Alright, that's good."
Mrs. Cart was satisfied with the proposal. By doing so, the jewelry charity dinner would be more interesting.
It would also be a design competition.
All of a sudden, those journalists who sat in the last row and were responsible for taking photos became excited.
They had thought that it was a boring party where people just donated. Surprisingly, something new came up. They were sure that what happened here would become trending tomorrow!
Jane had no interest in joining them, although she used to be a jewelry designer in her last life.
Now, Jane was in danger, and she was unable to help others. If she could live a good life in the future, she definitely would join them and do charity works.
"Mrs. Duncan, I heard that you like to collect jewels. You must have a good knowledge of jewelry. Why don't you join us?"
There were hundreds of people attending the party. So, not everyone could participate in the competition.
Jane didn't want to get involved, but it seemed that Kylie wanted to embarrass her.
Someone who knew Jane also said on purpose, "Mrs. Duncan, come and join us!"
As Jane came to the party with William, many people were jealous of her. They knew she was incompetent, so they tried to make difficulties for her. If Jane brought shame on the Duncans at the party, she probably wouldn't dare to pester William anymore.
"Mrs. Duncan likes jewelry very much. She will definitely be able to design a good jewelry and make a great contribution to the charity."
Given Ada had said so, Jane was unable to refuse.
If she refused, it would be more embarrassing.
"Mrs. Duncan, join us."
Mrs. Cart said. In fact, she didn't care about whether or not Jane participated in the competition. Her family was on good terms with the Duncans and had business with it.
Mrs. Cart didn't like Jane.
If it wasn't because of Colin disapproving, she would marry her daughter into the Duncans. In terms of both appearance and knowledge, Daisy Cart was not inferior to Jane. Besides, Daisy was well-spoken. "That's good!"
Jane stood up and walked to the stage.
She finally realized that the female lead had been a target. Although they didn't dare to offend her blatantly, they took every chance to get her into trouble.
Was it because she was an orphan and helpless? Did they think she could only rely on William?
Given they put so much efforts to trouble her, she had to take this opportunity to beat them up! Or, they would never stop bullying her.000
