Chapter 1540 He Is Angry
Dwayne showed up in the nick of time and saved the day.
Thanks to him, Vivian’s masterpiece was successfully showcased to the whole school at the graduation ceremony.
When her costume was first displayed on stage, it silenced every single audience.
Prior to her turn, all of the models were dressed in Epean clothing. The audience was getting tired of looking at the same style and fashion, from costumes to accessories. Hence, they were so amazed to see a unique piece of culturally rich ethnic clothing presented by Vivian.
The atmosphere became stilled in an instant as the crowd gaped at her baniere. They had never seen anything like it before.
It’s simply gorgeous!
The people were wowed by the authenticity of her design and the fine details that adorned the costume.
Vivian also made a smart move by playing some traditional music to enrich the audience’s viewing experience.
The melodious music instantly transported them to a historical canal town named Jazona, which was always shrouded in rain and mist. The vibe and vivid descriptions portrayed through her artwork were so surreal, causing everyone to be mesmerized.
Vivian was exhilarated to see the result of her hard work.
She knew at that moment that she would be the biggest winner of the night.
Helena more or less guessed it too. Triggered by jealousy and rage, she tossed a pearl onto the floor when the model was about to get off the stage.
Vivian stared in disbelief.
Before she could react, a blond-haired, blue-eyed charming guy jumped up to the stage and held the panicked model who was about to fall flat on her face.
He rebuked loudly while staring daggers at Helena, “What was that about, Helena? As the heir to the Goldin family, where are your manners and grace?”
It’s Dwayne. Yes, it’s him!
Seeing how the drama unfolded before their eyes, the crowd went into a frenzy. Helena was extremely embarrassed to have been publicly exposed and humiliated by the person she had been secretly admiring for ages.
She felt as if she had been slapped across the face.
D*mn you, Vivian!
Hatred and bitterness blazed in Helena’s eyes.
When the ceremony ended, Vivian proactively approached her savior with a cash prize and a trophy in her arms.
“Thank you so much, Dwayne. If it weren’t for you, I’d be in deep trouble.”
“Don’t mention it.” He smiled and looked at her dotingly.
Unsure of what to say, Vivian simply lowered her head shyly in response.
Dwayne continued, “By the way, Lady Adalyn loves your creation to bits. I believe that she will be wearing it to her birthday banquet tomorrow. Do you want to go? I can bring you along.”
“Can I?”
Vivian’s eyes lit up when she heard the invitation.
Grinning from ear to ear, he said, “Of course. Lady Adalyn and my family are close friends. If you’re willing, we can definitely go together.”
Vivian hesitated. After mulling it over, she declined politely.
“I’m sorry, Dwayne, but I’ve made a promise to a friend to meet up after the ceremony. Thanks for everything. I’ll treat you to a good meal soon.”
With that, she left happily with her trophy.
Friend? Which friend?
Dwayne watched the gorgeous girl leave. Feeling quite disappointed, he decided to follow her.
Vivian packed her bags and left for her home country that very day.
However, she did not head home straight. Lugging her pink suitcase, she arrived in a different city back home and landed herself in a local school.
“Hi, I’d like to see Kurt from the high school section.”
“Kurt? You mean the fourteen-year-old boy in senior high school?”
The security guard scrutinized Vivian multiple times when he learned who she was looking for, making her feel slightly uncomfortable.
What’s wrong? Is there a problem? It isn’t my first time coming here to see him.
She waited nervously for a reply.
Luckily, the security guard let her in. As he opened the gate, he mumbled, “Why is a pretty girl looking for Kurt, that weirdo?”
Kurt is a weirdo?
Vivian was puzzled at his comment.
However, she did not know that the school she visited was one of the nation’s most acclaimed and competitive highest-ranked high schools.
Kurt, who was only fourteen and supposedly a middle school student, skipped several grades and enrolled in senior high school. He topped the entire grade at each examination. There was practically no match for him.
As a matter of fact, he never liked socializing with others. He was always seen alone, and he acted like an autistic person. If all of these were not peculiar about him, one would argue what was.
Vivian entered the school premises with her suitcase.
She was cognizant of the boundaries set by Kurt, knowing that he did not like to be disturbed. Therefore, she waited for Kurt on the bench outside the administrative building.
Typically, she would notify him of her arrival with a text message and then read some books during the wait. That was essentially how they interacted with each other.
However, Kurt did not show up that day. Vivian waited for what seemed like forever, but she did not see him even after the class ended.
As the next bell rang to indicate the start of a new lesson, Kurt was still nowhere in sight.
What’s going on? Where is he?
In the end, Vivian could not stand the wait anymore. Leaving her suitcase with the security guard, she sneaked into the main building, determined to find Kurt.
