Chapter 607:
The atmosphere in the competition was charged as each designer focused intensely on their work. Some prioritized speed and had already completed their pieces, while others were still in progress.
Each designer aimed for perfection. As time passed, everyone completed their creations, believing the challenge was over once they presented their work to the panel.
However, the organizers introduced a twist—everyone had to wear their own creations for the presentation. Upon hearing this, most designers groaned. They had designed with aesthetics in mind, barely considering the practicality of wearing the pieces themselves. Some had crafted earrings so heavy that wearing them was a pain, while others had made necklaces with awkward shapes that were cumbersome to wear.
Yelena and Tessa, however, remained unfazed; their creations were perfectly wearable.
“If only we had a vintage outfit to match, our jewelry would shine even more,” Tessa said, looking at Yelena, whose elegance she felt would complement their pieces beautifully.
To her surprise, Yelena said, “The vision is entirely yours. You know your creations best, so you should be the one to present them.” Stunned, Tessa hesitated.
“You… you think I should do it? But I p>
“Go ahead. Even if it doesn’t go as planned, I’ll be right here to support you,” Yelena reassured her teammate, boosting her confidence.
Reluctantly, Tessa agreed.
Suddenly, Yelena seized the tablecloth from the table, pulled it off, and crouched down. With a brush and gold paint in hand, she swiftly began painting on the fabric. Within moments, a stunning scene emerged.
Tessa gasped in surprise, drawing the attention of onlookers who quickly gathered to see the spectacle. The emcee was impressed. “This is the first time I’ve seen someone craft a dress on the spot. Today’s designers are truly versatile, skilled in both jewelry and fashion design p>
Amidst the crowd’s admiration, Bella scoffed and said, “Some people can’t resist making a spectacle of themselves. This is a jewelry design contest, not a personal fashion show p>

Her comment cooled the crowd’s enthusiasm, reminding them that the focus was supposed to be on the jewelry.
The crowd began to thin, giving Yelena the space she needed to continue. She quickly transformed the tablecloth into a stunning dress, adjusting it to fit Tessa perfectly.
Next, Yelena helped Tessa with the hairpin, necklace, and earrings, completing the ensemble.
From a distance, an envious onlooker watched Tessa, a glint of malice in their eyes.
Sonya glared at Tessa, her eyes burning with envy. Yelena and Tessa had managed the seemingly impossible!
From what Sonya overheard, it was supposed to be a daunting, time-consuming task. How had Yelena’s team completed it so quickly? “Did you cheat? How could you finish the whole set so fast?” Sonya demanded, reaching to snatch the hairpin from Tessa’s hair.
Before Sonya’s hand could make contact, Yelena slapped it away. “This is our competition piece. If you tamper with it, that’s sabotage, and you’ll be disqualified,” Yelena said coldly.
Her words effectively halted Sonya, who withdrew her hand, seething with resentment. She had planned to discreetly damage Tessa’s hairpin, hoping it would go unnoticed and ruin Tessa’s chances, but her scheme was foiled.
Nearby, Lily watched Tessa with a jealous intensity. “Why does everything always go her way?” she whispered bitterly.
Soon, all the designers stood on stage, wearing the jewelry they had crafted. The standout pieces naturally drew much attention. Despite the rush, each creation bore slight imperfections—none were flawless. That was, until Tessa took the stage, her presence leaving a remarkable impression.
Though Tessa’s attire was simple, it radiated a composed and elegant charm. Her makeshift dress, adorned with the motifs Yelena had drawn, was especially striking.
