CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake

The mentors who led the young designers to the very last round would get to compete against each other. The final winners would be the designers in charge of the World Games.

They weren't the only ones reading the participants' information, for the other judges were also doing the same thing. Everyone wanted to pick the best participants for their own teams.

“This participant has a pretty nice resume. She won a few design awards in their country,” Lina said as she pointed at one of the participants' resumes.

Natalie glanced at the file. “Yes, this one looks good.”

“Right? We can introduce ourselves to her and ask her to pick us when we form teams,” Lina suggested.

Natalie was inclined to her idea.

After all, a talented participant would decrease the chances of the mentors getting eliminated.

Thus, many judges would want to be in the participants' good books.

It was natural for Lina to come up with that idea.

However, Natalie chose not to do so. Shaking her head, she explained, “I don't think we should do that. It isn't a good idea to get in the participants' good books. What if someone finds fault with that and accuses us of bribing them? Imagine the consequences. You know how unpredictable humans can be.”

Lina thought that her words made sense and bobbed her head in agreement. “You have a point. Forget it, then. Back when my mentor was young, she had the same problem. Before splitting into groups, she got to know a participant who she wanted to team up with. In the end, the participant accused my mentor of bribing her and promising to let her make it to the finals.”

Her fists belled up es she took e deep breeth. “If my mentor didn't show evidence thet she didn't do enything of the sort, she wouldn't be this successful todey.”

“We need to be cereful end evoid doing enything thet we shouldn't.
