Chapter 969 Welcome X

A front-row seat in the VIP section was reserved for her. Cassandra couldn't suppress her excitement and

exclaimed, “Boss, you were amazing up there!”

Ashlyn chuckled. “It was not too bad.”

Meanwhile, at the last row of the VIP section, a dark gaze was pinned on Ashlyn.

The man greedily drank in every move she made.

Ashlyn's radiant presence on stage replayed in his mind as his eyes glued to her.

When the show ended, it was already late night.

Ashlyn let out a yawn and glanced at her watch. “It’s already so late. I really want to go back and sleep.”

/ wonder if Lucas is asleep.

The master of the ceremony's voice pulled her out of her thought. “Please welcome Mr. Richard Shaw, CEO of The

Shaws.”

Richard's tall, lean body walking up the stage came into her sight when she lifted her gaze. He proceeded to give a

speech once he reached the podium.

During the course, her eyelids were getting heavier and heavier. His voice lulled her to sleep.

The master of the ceremony's question jolted Ashlyn awake. “Was Ms. Ashlyn, who walked the opening act, the

Berry who was all the rage in the fashion industry a few years ago? Here, we found the only photo when Berry

walked the runway a few years ago. We'll put the two photos side by side for comparison.”

At the heel of his words, a photo of Berry walking the runway a few years ago showed up on the massive screen on

stage instantly.

Despite the sunglasses obscuring half of her face, the audience could still see her nose, lips, and chin.

They were an exact match to Ashlyn's features in the photo pulled up at the side.

Shocked murmurs arose from the crowd.

“Oh my gosh! They're the same person!”

“It's actually true!”

“Berry is a top supermodel! Even though she never received any awards, all professionals in the industry praised

her for her abilities!”

"They claim she's the queen of the modeling world!”

Ashlyn found the whole thing boring.

Isn't the master of the ceremony and Richard being too childish? I can’t believe they dug out an earlier photo of me

helping someone walk the runway and even put it side by side with my current one.

The corners of Richard's lips curled into a faint smile as his gaze darted between the two photos. “Ashlyn was still

young when she walked the Ctene fashion show. A model happened to fall sick, and as an emergency measure,

they threw her on stage. No one ever imagined she would know how to catwalk and did exceptionally well at that!”

Richard explained, his voice gentle.

“Woah! How do you know the details, Mr. Shaw?” A look of shock crossed the masterof the ceremony's face.

“Then... why didn't she walk the runway again after that?”

“She had other things to do. The things she wanted to do weren't limited to the runway.” Amusement flashed

across Richard's stoic face. “Let us welcome the famous Ms. X on stage! I'm sure everyone has a lot of questions

for her.”

“What? Ms. X is here?”

“I thought she never reveals her face to the public?”

“Yeah, I heard she's very mysterious. Not only is she a designer for LX Corporation but also for X Corporation.

Besides, The Shaws is the holding company of X Corporation.”

“Say... why do you think she's so awesome? She got an award during London Fashion Week. I heard she's a young

lady.”

“I heard the same thing too! A young girl walked up the stage to receive the trophy then.”

A heated discussion brewed amid the audience. “Is this considered an Easter egg? The agenda on the invitation

card didn't mention Ms. X would show up.”

“This is an enormous Easter egg then!”

However, two minutes ticked by, and X didn't step onto the stage.

The fervent murmurs began to die down. The scene fell into a dead silence.

The audience exchanged confused glances. “Why didn't she go up?”

Richard shot a resigned look in Ashlyn's direction. “What? Are you not coming up just because I didn't inform you

beforehand?”

Ashlyn sat there with a deadpan expression as though Richard wasn't talking to her.

What is this nonsense? Didn’t we already agree on me not showing my face and only receiving dividends for my

designs? What now? Richard is becoming more and more unreliable. He’s really getting on my nerves.
