Beatrice quickly grabbed her hand and said, “Of course, I forgive you. I know you couldn’t help it, and I believe in you.”
She had a hint of alcohol on her face, and when she smiled, it was very warm and genuine.
Selina nodded vigorously, but deep down she snorted in disdain.
‘Stupid, remembering those small favors and kindnesses until now, deserved to be deceived!
Selina changed her expression to one of concern and said, “Beatrice, I heard that you were planning to withdraw from the competition? Actually, it’s alright. We can just find a job honestly and there’s no need to be overly competitive.”
“Selina, as my good friend, shouldn’t you have encouraged me?”
… I was just afraid that you would bear too much burden, that’s why I advised you, nothing else.” Selina stammered.
“Well, speaking of the competition, I noticed that my design draft had been tampered with. It seems like you have the key to my dorm, right?” Beatrice probed.
Selina started crying again and said with grievance, “Do you doubt me? We have been good friends for so many years, and besides, your roommates have always been targeting you. I have always defended you and accompanied you. What if it’s them?”
“Don’t talk nonsense. It was already inappropriate to have a duplicate key made in secret, and now you’re saying bad things about them. What if they get angry and report it? You’ll end up with a disciplinary record. We’re about to graduate, don’t you want to avoid adding a black mark to your file?”
“I didn’t mean that.” Selina seemed a little anxious, ultimately being afraid of tough situations.
“Then you give me the key back, and I will flush the toilet in front of them. They won’t be able to accuse you for sure.”
Beatrice reached out her hand.
Selina hesitated for a while, but in the end, she was worried that she would be reported and had to hand over the key.
Beatrice took the keys and pretended to
and pretended to be drunk, and started talking nonsense. “I lost my design draft, I have nothing now, I’m finished…”
Selina supported her, a smile playing at the corner of her mouth, and then she walked her back to the dormitory before turning around and leaving.
Once Selina left, Beatrice sat up from the bed and handed the keys to the other three people to destroy.
Then she sat in front of the
of the table and started

She didn’t finish her design until 3 o’clock in the morning. The next day, I woke up to find breakfast on the table, wrapped in a winter milk tea thermos bag. There are also messages from roommates below.
“Beatrice, thank you for transferring the money for me. I have decided to make an effort for my own future, so I am going to report to the company now. The IQU is at the bottom, I will repay

you once I have earned the money.”

“Beatrice, thank you for reminding me. I called
for reminding me. I called my mom last night and she asked me if I knew that company had always hired interns for their big shows but none of them were ever promoted. I’m so lucky.”
“Beatrice, remember to have breakfast.”
Beatrice finished her lovingly prepared breakfast with a smile, and then ran out with her *manuscript to make samples.
Three days later, it was the day of the competition.
When Beatrice got up early and was getting ready to pack her bags and leave, her three roommates unexpectedly blocked her way.
Wait a minute, are you going to compete like this? Online it says Madelynn is wearing a high–end designer dress, and you’re dressed so plain. What if the judges don’t have a good impression?”
Upon hearing this, Beatrice lowered her head and glanced at her attire. It was plain, but the dress
was new.
As a result, before she could argue, the person had already been pulled back to the center of the dormitory.
The other two roommates together lifted a big box and, looking at the label on top, Beatrice was directly shocked.
Ralph Lauren runway dresses.
“Did you… go to rob?”
All three of them laughed.
“Someone said there was a package for you this morning, so we brought it back for you. By the way, there was only a card on top. Take a look.”
A velvet ribbon pressed down on a plain white card.
Beatrice took out the letter and opened it, but there was nothing written inside, only a letter “B” left.
My roommate curiously asked, “What does B mean?”
B, Baldwin.
Except for Monica and Ryan, there was only one person in the Baldwin family who would treat her so well.
Monica and Ryan were not secretive people, she was just afraid that they would make a big fuss, so she deliberately didn’t mention the date of the competition.
There was only one person left.
Oscar.
Yesterday, I called her to wish her all the best.
She was surprised today, unexpectedly.
My roommates couldn’t wait to open the box, inside of which lay a long silk gown in a

grayish–purple color.

At the chest, there were handcrafted beads, varying in size, emitting a lustrous and gentle glow under the light.
Below the waistline were two layers of ultra–thin silk, one dark and one light, the colors of which appeared particularly dreamy.
“Wow, this dress would glow even in our dormitory under this kind of light, let alone on stage… sparkling and shining?”
Beatrice was amused by her roommate’s
deliberate
imitation of a voice.
“Still laughing, quickly change your clothes, and I also have to do your makeup.”
An
An hour later, Beatrice was being admired by her roommates like a doll. It was so beautiful. Beatrice, I think even women were falling in love with you.” “Beatrice, come on, you were the first in our profession.”
“Beatrice, relax, we believed in you.”
Beatrice nodded and put on her coat, ready to leave.
While the roommates really wanted to go to the scene, they had just started their internships at the company and couldn’t take time off.
But with their encouragement, Beatrice felt enough.
Forty minutes later, Beatrice appeared outside the venue.
In this recent rookie design competition, one of the judges was a well–known domestic jewelry designer, whose studio was famous both domestically and internationally. The first–place winner of the competition could directly enter her studio for an internship. This is equivalent to a novice following a master to bravely enter the high–end game, and what- they see and learn is definitely much more than an ordinary intern.
So this competition was so grand, there were rows of journalists both inside and outside.
And at this moment, Madelynn and Caden were being interviewed.
Madelynn was dressed in a sparkling white gown, standing next to the tall and handsome Caden, looking like a ethereal princess.
Caden was still dressed in a black suit, with a pale expression and handsome, sharp features,
The finger ring was spinning intermittently, exuding a daunting aura beneath its preciousness.
Enchanting and dangerous.
The surrounding reporters seemed a bit crowded, so Madelynn leaned towards Caden. Caden then raised his hand to protect her.
The prince and the princess stood together, always so perfect for each other, causing the surrounding flashlights to never stop.
Suddenly, Caden lifted his gaze and, astonishingly, his eyes landed directly on Beatrice. Beatrice was taken aback. She had thought that with so many people, he would be more

restrained.
Little did he know, his gaze shamelessly swept over her, completely disregarding the possibility of being noticed by the journalist.
Is he crazy?
A suffocating feeling crawled up Beatrice’s heart as she tried to regain her composure, quickly stepping into the backstage through a side door.
She didn’t breathe a sigh of
of relief until the gaze behind her
her disappeared.
But as I was about to enter the preparation room, I heard Selina’s voice from behind.
“Beatrice, you knew…”
Selina walked up to Beatrice, her voice suddenly faltering, her unbelieving eyes staring directly at Beatrice’s face.
Although he tried his best to restrain his emotions, he was still caught by Beatrice’s fleeting jealousy.
She remained calm and said,“Selina, what’s wrong?”
Selina finally came to her senses, pursed her lips for a moment, and instantly raised a concerned smile.
“I came here to cheer you up. My roommate said there is a particularly delicious imported milk, so I specifically went to buy it this morning, just to give it to you before the competition. Come on! Let’s have one together.”
Selina laughed sincerely and handed over the imported milk carefully, appearing very inexperienced and insecure.
It made people feel sorry when they saw it.
But Beatrice knew the cruelty beneath her skin and also knew that there was something wrong with this milk.
However… she still took the milk.
