Revenge is best served cold

Chapter 241 Advancing to the Semifinals

After returning from the mall, I threw myself back into my interior design work. That same day, I submitted my design draft.

A week later, the preliminary results were announced on the competition's website -both Elsa and I had made the cut.

At the time, I was in the studio with Levi. When he saw Elsa's design, he couldn't help but scoff. "This is seriously bad. She probably won't make it past the semifinals."

I pulled up her submission and nodded in full agreement. Though her design was polished and complete, it lacked any originality. The organizers had likely passed her based on completion alone.

I scanned through the other selected works. A few designs bore a striking resemblance to the one Elsa had won with in my past life.

With her skill level, making it this far was already pure luck. Yet she had undeniably taken home an award last time. That alone made it clear that something shady was going on behind the scenes.

The organizers gathered all the semifinalists into a group chat. To be cautious, I joined with a secondary account.

The moment I got in, I took note of the social media profiles of those designers whose work had looked suspiciously familiar.

Just then, a new message popped up.
