Luna watched Mia standing on the stage as jealousy filled her to the brim.

This entire time, Luna had never thought that she performed worse than Mia.

But the sight of Mia getting the spotlight right now angered her.

Luna smirked. "You have got to be kidding me, Jasmine. Mia's business gained success because of her family's investment and connection, no? If she was still an orphan, would her business have been successful?"

Jasmine retorted, "At least she's talented. She designed all of these herself."

"There are a bunch of talents out there, but running a successful business is different. Without enough investment and her family's help, would she have been able to come this far?"

Luna lowered her voice as she continued, "I can see that you're taking her side, but she's just using you to get rid of me. What do you take her for? Someone kind who doesn't have ulterior motives?" Jasmine noticed the jealousy written over Luna's face. "Is it that difficult for you to admit that someone else is extraordinary? Dad taught me to be humble and learn from others since young. Hard work is what fills the gap, not jealousy," Jasmine said.

Raymond turned his head and said, "I think Jazzy is right. Look at Ms. Mia. She keeps a low profile. She did such a good job of keeping everyone else in the dark before gaining success with her business. Both of you should learn this from her."

Luna rolled her eyes when he told them to set Mia as their exemplary model.

There was no way Luna was going to look up to Mia. She believed that she was just as good as Mia!
