Chapter 286 Dared To Refuse Me

Following Jewel’s shrill voice, the entire backstage plunged into silence.

Striding over, Christina studied the woman in front of her. Thank you for liking my designs, miss. But a client has already reserved the gowns. As such, I can’t sell them to you.”

It was a good thing that people loved her designs. For that reason, she did not take offense to the fact that the woman came backstage without permission.

However, Jewel merely snorted coldly before slowly removing her top hat.

Without the cover it provided, her beautiful countenance came into plain view of everyone there. Isn’t she the female celebrity who’s exceedingly popular recently and has even been nominated as one of the top ten beauties by
