Chapter 1674
Antonia’s youthful voice rang out, a touch of contempt coloring her laughter, “Not bad, you still
remember me! Did you get fired by Mr. Tucker and now you’re out of work? I’ll ask you again, do you
want to design a dress for me? This is my final offer, and if you agree, you can start working on the set
immediately. I won’t skimp on the promised payment, and we can forget about any previous
unpleasantness.”
Estelle rose to her feet, heading towards the balcony. The sun danced on her perfect features, yet it
failed to thaw the icy stare in her eyes, “I don’t have the time nor the interest, and even if I did, I
wouldn’t do it for you, because you’re not worthy of my designs!”
Her words seemed to drop the temperature on the other end of the line, “Estelle, you better remember
what you said today. Don’t regret it!”
“The only thing I regret is picking up your call this morning. It ruined my day!” Estelle retorted coldly,
ending the call.
A text message quickly popped up on her screen, [Estelle, I’ll be waiting for you to beg me!]
Estelle immediately blocked Antonia’s number.
Around noon, a post surfaced online titled, “An In-depth Exploration of KING’s Past”.
The post meticulously detailed Estelle’s upbringing. Born in a small village in C City over two decades
ago, she was mistreated by her parents who favored boys over girls. This led to her sour demeanor
and reclusive nature. At the tender age of five, her parents died in a car accident, and she was sent to
an orphanage.
The post’s author claimed to have investigated the circumstances of her parents’ accident. Apparently,
they were driving into town to sell farm goods when their brakes failed, causing them to collide with an
oncoming truck. The impact was so severe that they were pronounced dead at the scene, their bodies
mangled beyond recognition.
According to Estelle’s supposed younger brother, he saw her fiddling with a pair of scissors near their
tricycle the night before their parents’ fatal accident. The post insinuated that Estelle may have
tampered with the brakes, intending for her parents’ demise.
After the death of her parents, Estelle and her brother were sent to an orphanage. There, Estelle
remained for a year, refusing to interact with anyone, exhibiting signs of severe introversion.
Later, she was adopted by an elderly man from C City. However, due to financial struggles, she couldn’t
afford school. It was only thanks to the generous sponsorship from a wealthy family in J City that she
was able to complete high school, despite her abysmal performance in her final exams. novelbin
The wealthy family then took her in as a foster daughter and moved her to J City to repeat her final
year. Once the proverbial small-town girl in a big city, she frequently got into fights, even landing a few
classmates in the hospital. Her foster parents had to pay off the school
administration to prevent her expulsion after she scored a pitiful thirty-something on her
exams.
Later, Estelle became a protege of the renowned Old Mr. Quintin, thanks to her foster parents’ financial
backing.
Under Old Mr. Quintin’s guidance, Estelle’s talent in design shone through. Gradually, through Quintin’s
connections, she started to participate in international fashion shows and slowly made a name for
herself.
However, upon gaining fame, Estelle distanced herself from her foster parents. She was cold and
indifferent towards them, even telling them that her success had nothing to do with them and that they
should stop trying to bask in her glory.
The post’s author painted Estelle as an ungrateful, money-grubbing individual, completely
unsympathetic to the people who helped her succeed. They claimed to have shared Estelle’s story to
alert the public to her true character and discourage support for such a morally bankrupt individual.
The post, made anonymously, quickly gained traction due to KING’s recent popularity. Coupled with the
efforts of some internet trolls, it quickly went viral.
Given the previous mystery surrounding KING’s background, the post attracted a lot of attention and
shocked many.
One of the top comments read, [If KING is really like this, I can’t believe she could design anything of
value. Did she really create all those award-winning pieces, or did Old Mr. Quintin use his influence and
connections to rig the awards in her favor?]
Others quickly followed suit,
[No wonder KING has always been so secretive about her background. It turns out that she has such a
scandalous past!]
