“Besides, would you want to let her get away with this? You will all be screwed if I tell my
cousin this.” She raised an eyebrow and threatened them with an Icy smile.
“Your cousin?” Someone asked, ‘who is it?”
Her arrogance was boosted in an instant. “My cousin is Molly Lamere, the only daughter of
the Lamere family.” She said with her chest puffed.
“Huh…”
“Molly Lamere? Is that the daughter of Jackson Lamere, the politician from Linkville?”
“I remembered that her fiance is Han Howard, CEO of Howard Group.”
As soon as she finished her sentence, the judges hesitated instantly.
One should bear in mind that Leah was still a citizen of Melville no matter how successful
she was. Molly was a true Pasterian, her father was a high-ranking politician while her
fiance was a businessman. Compared to her, Molly seems quite untouchable at the
moment.
“I think that the dress is still damaged regardless.”
“Since the skirt is damaged, she should still be punished for it.”
“Should we just disqualify Emma and postpone the top three rankings?”
Emma’s face turned pale at their comments. Her family is not as wealthy as Becky’s. If she
was disqualified, she would have to wait for another three years.
Youth is extremely important for a model. Plus, her family would no longer allow her to
continue her modeling career if she isn’t showing any results.

“What do you mean giving up? You should be responsible for your mistakes,” She said with
pure arrogance, drastically different from her previous obedient attitude.
At this moment, Leah could feel the irony in this situation. Some people are selfish like
this. They felt the need to block every path of their competitors.
Leah stood in front of Emma and stared Becky dead in the eye, “Do you have to be like
this?”
Becky felt nervous gradually as Leah glared for some reason.
But she can’t just let this be. She asked Leah,” I respect you as my favorite jewelry
designer but why are you so protective of Emma?”
“It’s not that I’m protective.” Leah sneered, “I know the truth, the one who truly damaged
the dress.”
Upon hearing this, Becky gulped nervously. She clenched her fist as she felt the tension
between them. Had she found out? How could this be? She thought that she must be
overthinking it.
“Stop wasting everyone’s time, just disqualify her.”
The judges heard her words and nodded to each other, prepared to announce the results
of the competition.
At this moment, Leah took her phone out of the bag slowly, “Since Miss Hills is being
stubborn. I shall just show the evidence to the public.”
Becky’s heart grew heavy when she saw her phone. Before she could react, Leah snatched
the host’s microphone and released the voice recordings from the toilet earlier.
Although it was a few seconds, it was enough evidence to prove that Becky Hills was the
culprit.
Emma’s face turned even paler, clutching her dress in disbelief. “You ruined the dress?!”
The audience below started whispering.
“No This must be forged! You are framing me!” She exclaimed.
“We can check if it is real or fake through some investigation. Would you want me to
continue checking?” Leah scoffed.
Becky moved two steps backward as her face turned pale.
“What is going on here?” The judges wore a horrified look on their faces.
“We’ll know the truth after some investigation. But I’m afraid that Miss Hills won’t last till
the investigation.”
“Search.” At this moment, a deep voice appeared on the front. Everyone looked back at
the same time.
Leah was horrified when she heard the voice.
She widened her eyes subconsciously and scanned through the audience to look for the
source of the voice.
Although two years had passed, his voice was still enough to make her nervous.
Along with his deep voice, Han’s steady footsteps were also heard.
“It’s Mr. Howard.”
“Mr. Howard came.”
“Becky is his cousin-in-law, it is natural for him to handle these situations for her.”

Han stepped onto the stage as everyone was discussing this matter.
His sight never left Leah from beginning to end.
However, she failed to notice this.
“Mr. Howard?”
“We must investigate clearly to prevent tarnishing the fashion week’s reputation,” he said
with a straight face.
Becky started panicking upon hearing this. She will be screwed if he found out about this.
She said to him quickly, “I didn’t do it, you have to believe me cousin-in-law.”
Instead of replying, He approached Leah. “Leah?”
Leah raised her head and shared a glance with Han, trying her best to restrain herself.
“Since you are willing to participate, show me the results after it’s done. I have something
that I have to do.”
Han grabbed Leah’s wrist aggressively. Everyone was too stunned to speak. “Sir, what are
you trying to do?” she frowned.
“Sir? Are you trying to play dumb with me?” He looked at her.
“I don’t understand what you are talking about.”
“Two years, I knew you weren’t dead.” He said to himself.
Leah frowned as she knew that she might eventually meet him again, she just didn’t
expect their reunion to be so soon. Even if she was alive, there was no way that she will
be tortured again.
She sneered in her heart as she was struggling to speak, “I don’t know what you are
talking about. I will call the security guard if you don’t let go.”
