Chapter 720 What a disgrace!
Lilian laughed heartily, bursting into uncontrollable fits of laughter. She didn't bother hiding it at all.
Others who were unaware of the situation were shocked: Natalie's assistant has such audacity? How could she openly mock a European socialite!
And yet Nora didn't dare utter a word!
Lilian felt that simply laughing wasn't enough. "Nora, it's not just me saying this, but what gave you the courage to say such things? I've always thought I wasn't smart, but I wouldn't come up with the kind of requirements that stir up trouble like you did."
Lilian emphasized, "Your parents will definitely feel embarrassed by this, especially John."
Half of the staff here were foreigners from all over the world, so English was the common language during this competition.
However, isn't it a bit too much for Natalie's assistant to be so fluent in English?
No, this assistant seems to be a Westerner to begin with.
But even for a Westerner, it's unreasonable to be so proficient in the language of this country!
Nora's face turned pale with anger, but she didn't dare confront Lilian openly. She knew very well how highly regarded Lilian was in the Norton family and how much her parents doted on their only daughter.
With her position, she couldn't openly confront Lilian, or else she wouldn't even know how she would end up!
Natalie smiled and didn't stop Lilian's mockery.
Lilian has always had a good temper, so if she dislikes Nora so much, there must be some old grudges. Taking the opportunity to vent some steam is not a problem at all, especially when she has an audience. Lilian won't suffer any losses.
Lilian felt that she hadn't said enough just now. It was okay to argue with her, but she couldn't argue with her sister-in-law!
"And, if you have the ability, you can have people deliver Australian lobsters, Japanese wagyu beef, and French escargots to you. Why bother the restaurant? The head chef of this restaurant is also at a state banquet level. Their specialty dishes are pine nut mandarin fish, Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, Dongpo pork, and a crispy tofu dish called Wensi Tofu. After coming here, who would want to eat Australian lobsters?"
Lilian rolled her eyes and said, "There's a saying, let me think... oh, oh, I remember now! 'The boar can't manage to eat the bran lightly.'"
"Poof!"
This time, someone really sprayed water.
No, is it really appropriate for such a high-level cute girl to say something so rustic?
Do modern beautiful girls not have any idol baggage?
Especially when this phrase is spoken in English, it is particularly visual and funny.
"Lilian," even Natalie found it difficult to accept, "Where did you learn this phrase?"
"In a game!" Lilian didn't think she had said anything to harm her image, "I've heard Lucas say this about others, so I imitated him!"
"...
..." Lucas!
Natalie once again confirmed her belief that she needed to have a heart-to-heart talk with her younger brother.
Nora was first scolded by Natalie, and now she was scolded by Lilian. Unfortunately, she couldn't scold Lilian back, and she felt very wronged.
If... if she had the same top-notch background as Lilian, she wouldn't have to suffer like she did now!
This little episode ended with Nora storming out of the room, dropping her chopsticks.
The remaining people looked at each other and dared to speak only after Natalie took Lilian and Casey with her and left:
"I used to think Natalie was very arrogant. Even celebrities like Melvin and Eunice eat with everyone, yet Natalie still has her own private dinner. It felt like she thought she was superior. But just now, I suddenly realized that Natalie is actually quite understanding."
"That's right. It's good enough if she doesn't cause trouble, unlike Nora, who always has so many problems."
"Speaking of which, Natalie has the capital to have her own private dinner. That's her business. Not to mention, she has specialized food delivered to her, and she even has a private house on the estate. Being able to arrange something special is also someone else's skill."
"Ah, I envy Natalie's two assistants. They eat the same food as Natalie every day. I think they look good because they eat the same food as Natalie."
"Just envy them? I quietly observed Natalie's food. She has a bowl of bird's nest soup every day. It's the best quality golden-threaded bird's nest! She even complained to her assistant that she's tired of bird's nest soup."
"...Excuse me."
"Oh, by the way, did anyone find out who Natalie is living with? I heard she admitted to living with a pursuer before."
"Well, who would be able to find out? Can we find out who can live in this private mansion?"
"That's true."
Some people quietly speculated if it might be Oliver, but Mr. Windsor openly declared that he was pursuing Natalie and Natalie didn't agree...Well, never mind, they shouldn't gossip. The first rule in the workplace: do more and say less!
Actually, the main reason is that the venue rented by the organizers is in the southern part of the mansion, while Natalie and the others live in the eastern part. Oliver gets on the car as soon as he goes out and goes back to the villa as soon as he gets off, so there is no chance for anyone to secretly eavesdrop.
The sun began to set.
The spectators entered with their tickets, and the audience seats were divided into two sections, A and B. There were fewer people in section A, all industry professionals who would be voting on the models' performances.
In fact, the format of the competition is not much different from a talent show. The five mentors give scores, which are then combined with the votes from the professional audience to determine the contestants' final scores.
Every half minute, one of the hundred contestants takes the stage, and their professional photos are displayed on the big screen. The photos are also sent to the audience's email for public voting.
As the sun set, the contestants kept coming out one after another, accompanied by the gentle light and breeze of the mansion. This was not only a visual feast but also a sensory pleasure.
Natalie and the four other mentors sat on the high platform, scoring each contestant one by one. After a while, she spotted a familiar face in the crowd of the audience seat - one, two, three, four, five, six, seven...
Natalie froze.
Why are there more than ten people?
So many?!
Mia, relying on her good vision of 5.2 despite facing the computer all year, noticed that Natalie was looking at them and happily waved her hand.
Natalie was too far away to see Mia's expression clearly, but even from this distance, she could still feel Mia's excitement, like a monkey who had gotten a peach.
...Doesn't Ethan, sitting next to her, try to stop her?
...Or does he just think that his wife is beyond help?
The other socialites also waved their hands like Mia, completely abandoning their usual grace and aloofness as Paykston's elite ladies.
One person waving their hand would be fine, but when several people waved their hands together, it immediately caught the attention of many others. People around them all turned to look at them, and then followed their gaze to Natalie.
Natalie: "..."
She felt a little overwhelmed.
"You've turned a perfectly fine competition into a mess, it's really embarrassing!" Nora, who hadn't even gone on stage yet, huffed nearby Natalie.
