Comeback Of The Adored Heiress
Chapter 327

Chapter 327:

The guests were completely enthralled by the exquisite gown. One of them could not help but exclaim, “It’s a feast for the eyes! My God, this is stunning!”

“Yes, it’s absolutely breathtaking. The style of this dress looks so familiar!”

“It’s Sierra’s signature style! I recognize her work anywhere—this is definitely one of her creations,” someone shouted excitedly from the crowd.

The venue buzzed with excitement. If this was indeed Sierra’s design, then their attendance was well worth it! Cameras flashed incessantly from every angle offstage, capturing every moment.

“This model is stunning too, but why haven’t I seen her before?”

“That’s because she’s not a model—she’s an actress, Maxine. I’ve seen her TV show, and it’s really good.”

“Really? Anyone chosen by Sierra must be exceptional.”

The perception of Maxine shifted in the eyes of everyone present.

When Maxine was asked to make a surprise appearance at the end of the show, she was utterly stunned. Although Madisyn had promised to help her, Maxine had not anticipated that Madisyn would wield such influence. She had no idea whose design she was wearing, only that it was gorgeous. When she overheard the crowd whispering Sierra’s name, Maxine was so shocked she nearly fainted.

Of course, she knew who Sierra was. But how could she ever be worthy of wearing one of Sierra’s designs? Even the biggest names in the industry might not get such an opportunity!

Despite her mind racing with a whirlwind of thoughts, Maxine maintained a serene smile and glided gracefully through the crowd.

The host then took the stage, his voice booming through the venue. “I’m sure everyone has guessed who designed this masterpiece. Yes, it’s Sierra!”

“Oh my God! I knew it from the start! Only Sierra could create something this stunning!”

“It’s absolutely beautiful! Sierra has unveiled a new creation!”

“I love it so much! I wonder how much it costs—I want to buy it!”

The excitement in the venue was palpable, filling every corner with a buzz of enthusiastic chatter.

Meanwhile, the manager from Aria Fashion broke into a cold sweat, his forehead glistening under the lights. He hadn’t anticipated that Sierra’s chosen model would be Maxine, which led him to ponder the nature of their connection.

The other collaborating brands didn’t hesitate to express their gratitude to the manager.

“You’re amazing! You actually got Sierra to be here!”

“Man, I knew you were the real deal. We’re so fortunate to have our pieces showcased alongside Sierra’s.”

“You knew Sierra and didn’t tell us? Are we still friends?”

However, the manager from Aria Fashion couldn’t quite share their enthusiasm, as he realized he might have unintentionally offended Maxine.

Meanwhile, the host handed the microphone to Maxine. “Maxine, could you please introduce this outfit to us?”

Having received a script in advance, courtesy of Madisyn, Maxine followed it to present the outfit, capturing everyone’s attention. She glanced at Madisyn with a look of deep gratitude.

The piece she was adorned in was indeed Sierra’s work, and Madisyn had shown her incredible kindness. Now, more determined than ever, Maxine was ready to seize this opportunity to outshine Tatiana. Her resolve hardened with each passing moment.

In the audience, the manager from Aria Fashion felt a wave of relief wash over him. Even if he had inadvertently offended Maxine, the showcase of Sierra’s design at this prestigious fashion show was sure to amend any oversight. This event was poised to capture national attention. A thrill of excitement pulsed through him.

Then, Maxine dropped a bombshell that sent ripples through the crowd. “It was actually by chance that I ended up wearing this design by Sierra. Originally, I was supposed to wear a dress from Aria Fashion, but just before I went on stage, my assistant discovered that the dress was damaged.”

The revelation caused a stir among the guests, who turned their surprised glances towards the manager from Aria Fashion. Under their scrutiny, he began to sweat, unprepared for Maxine’s candid disclosure. He made a desperate gesture, trying to signal Maxine to halt her revelation, but she pressed on, undeterred.

“Both the representative from Aria Fashion and Tatiana were there when it happened. I expected help, but instead, they blamed me for the damage. Despite my innocence, they insisted it was my responsibility and demanded I pay for the damages. I was really disappointed—I never imagined that the fashion show I had put so much effort into would unfold like this.”

The boldness of Maxine directly naming the Aria Fashion representative and Tatiana left everyone in shock. “How could they do that? Oh my God! I’m starting to think they broke the dress on purpose.”

“I heard Tatiana and Maxine don’t get along. There’s definitely more to this story.”

“Even if the dress was damaged, it wasn’t Maxine’s fault. Was that really necessary? I had a high opinion of Aria Fashion because they invited Sierra, but now I’m not so sure.”

The murmurs in the crowd began to coalesce into a consensus: Maxine had been mistreated, and many speculated that Sierra’s decision to let her wear one of her designs was a show of support.

Everyone in the venue, especially those who appreciated fashion or worked in the industry, quickly sided with Maxine, sensing her strong connection with Sierra.

Hidden backstage, Tatiana was seething with rage. She never expected Maxine to so boldly expose her. She glared toward the stage where Maxine spoke, her eyes burning with a silent fury, wishing she could silence her. Determined to exact retribution, Tatiana made up her mind to teach Maxine a lesson she wouldn’t forget.

“So, I am incredibly grateful for this opportunity given by Sierra, and I want to thank her deeply,” Maxine said, bowing deeply in the direction of Madisyn.

Madisyn responded with a light smile.

“Maxine is smart,” Jared murmured quietly, his voice barely audible.

“Of course she is,” Madisyn replied, her eyebrows raised slightly in affirmation.

At that moment, Jared felt a sharp pang of jealousy. He had done so much for Madisyn without receiving praise, yet Madisyn seemed to show considerable favor toward Maxine. He couldn’t help but feel a bit overlooked amid the unfolding drama.

Suddenly, the venue erupted in applause. Voices rose from the crowd, some with a fierce sense of justice. “Aria Fashion has gone too far! This is clearly a setup. I refuse to believe Aria Fashion didn’t notice it.”
