Chapter 254 Xavier

After finishing her chat with Nicolas, Imogen sorted through all the recent photos she had taken on her computer.

She remembered she still had a photography competition to participate in.

While she had a knack for photography, she knew that relying solely on her talent wouldn’t cut it. Imogen compiled the photos into a compressed file and sent it to Alex, along with a message: [Hey Alex, here are some of my recent works, Can you give me some insights when you have time?]

Alex: [Sure thing!]

Alex: [Have you decided on the theme for the competition?]

Imogen: [Not yet.]

Imogen had joined a photography competition group chat. The group chat comprised numerous professional and amateur photographers who frequently shared their experiences and opinions. Imogen would occasionally upload one or two of her works for the group to critique and provide feedback on others‘ photos.

Imogen picked a photo she was relatively satisfied with and posted it in the group chat. Imogen: [Hey, photography gurus, can you advise me on this picture? Where could it be improved?]

The group members were incredibly enthusiastic. Some showered her with compliments, and others offered suggestions on composition, color, and various aspects of the photograph.

Then, a new message popped up: [Have you bought a new camera?]

Messages flooded with Imogen’s screen before she could respond.

“Xavier?”

“Ah, it’s Xavier! You’ve finally made an appearance!”

“Oh my god! It’s Xavier?”

“Xavier, I love you!”

The screen lit up with dozens of messages in an instant.

Imogen was bewildered. She scrolled back and found out the sender was an administrator named Xavier.

Judging by the group members‘ reactions, Xavier appeared to be an important member.

Imogen: [Yes. I recently bought a new camera. How did you figure it out, Xavier?]
