“Zivon, you’re messing with us, right…?”
Looking at everyone with extremely determined eyes, Zivon then replied, “It really wasn’t me, Grandma. As proof, why don’t you announce the name of the designer, Uncle Larry?”
Zivon himself had a hunch of who had submitted that proposal, and he was keen on finding out if he was right.
“Very well, Young Master Burton,” replied Larry as he flipped the design sheet around… revealing the name Xavia Lockhart!
“M-My god…! Xavia designed that?!” exclaimed Helen as her eyes widened in shock.
Even the others were shocked as they started saying things like, “H-How is this possible?!”
“How could a hillbilly like her possibly design such a masterpiece…!”
“That’s definitely not her design…! There must be some sort of misunderstanding…!” growled the infuriated Jenna who was jealous and dissatisfied beyond words. How ironic.
After giving Jenna a short glare, Zivon commanded, “Go get Xavia over, Uncle Larry.”
“Right away,” replied the butler as he rushed off… and within five minutes, Xavia found herself within the room.
“However, as I was designing it, it occurred to me that some people may not like Hawaii, so I began incorporating other styles… Somewhere along that line, I realized that there were various places in our country with highlightable aspects. That thought soon gave birth to this paradise which I hope will be able to satisfy everyone’s needs…”
“I also knew that a concept alone wasn’t enough, so I made sure to collect data in the past seven days. It’s all recorded on my computer, and I even made sure to keep all the records of my manuscripts. That aside, several surveillance cameras have been installed within Young Master Keith’s home, so if anyone suspects that there’s a problem with my design, feel free to retrieve the footage,” concluded Xavia in a calm, yet determined tone, her gaze unwavering.
From the looks of it, she really was telling the truth… It was also at that moment when everyone finally saw her shining brightly. To think that her mind was already so broad and bold at her age… Nobody saw her as a mere hillbilly anymore. Instead, they now treated her like a piece of gold that had just been dug up!
Seeing that she was finally getting the reputation she deserved, Zivon couldn’t help but look at her in admiration. Truth be told, he had been feeling slightly uneasy ever since she refused his help. In the end, it turned out that there had been nothing to worry about.
She truly didn’t disappoint…! Now smiling subtly, he walked up to her before saying, “Nobody is questioning you… Your design is truly amazing, and in all my years of working in this industry, you’re the first designer whom I’ve come to admire…”
