Reborn as the Sweetheart of a Paranoid Boss-Chapter 369: The Aura Showcase

Selena Kensington was noncommittal to her words, "Something happened at the time, let’s not think about it now, just post a Weibo tweet."

The Butterfly Flame Weibo is managed by Lea Dutton, and since they’ve decided to hire Lynn Rhodes, they’ve still decided to make an official announcement.

"Okay, I’ll do it right away."

After speaking, Lea Dutton immediately took out her phone and started typing on the screen.

She searched for Lynn Rhodes’ Weibo and clicked to follow.

Then she posted a Weibo tweet.

Butterfly Flame official Weibo V: Our costume designer for the crew is confirmed to be @LynnRhodesV. Her designs are astonishingly innovative, let’s look forward to them!

Because when Butterfly Flame previously made its official announcement, a lot of fans flooded in to follow this Weibo account.

So this time, Selena Kensington didn’t need to repost, and there were already many netizens commenting under the Weibo post.

[Lynn Rhodes? Is she the designer who was sensational before?!]

[Ahhh, the designs are so ethereal! So artistic!]

[Curious why Director Kensington chose such an unknown designer...]

[I thought she would choose The Aura Showcase, after all, The Aura Showcase is quite famous in the industry!]

[Above, Director Kensington only chooses whom she deems suitable, right?...]

[The costume designer is settled, could the casting be far behind...]

Some people cheered, while others had doubts.

Indeed, if it were traditional rules for ancient costumes, The Aura Showcase would be more suitable.

But Selena Kensington doesn’t want to follow traditional conventions completely.

She wants to innovate on tradition, which would be more appealing to the audience.

Being tired of traditional costumes, something unexpectedly refreshing like these costumes would attract more attention.

Lynn Rhodes came this time bringing some outfits she had hurriedly designed before.

Although the styles were somewhat old-fashioned, they were still a breath of fresh air compared to The Aura Showcase’s luxurious and traditional cumbersome costumes.

During the weekend, Selena Kensington had Sloane Hawthorne wear the clothes designed by Lynn Rhodes and took several sets of photos in Stardust Entertainment’s studio.

After the shoot, she handed the photos over to the person in charge of Shining Star Magazine.

"This set of images, use them as the theme for the next issue of the magazine."

"Alright."

Afterwards, Selena Kensington took a set of images and posted a Weibo tweet.

In the photo, Sloane Hawthorne is wearing the clothes designed by Lynn Rhodes.

The gauzy fabric is light and soft, as if it’s about to flutter.

The pale blue dress on her makes her seem like the Vorlag Princess from her youthful days.

Her eyes are pure and bright, with a smile at the corner of her mouth, as if the cold winter is melting away, heralding the arrival of spring.

Many netizens were already drooling over the photos.

[Wow wow wow, Sloane is so beautiful!!!]

[Mom asked why I was kneeling to look at my phone...]

[Is this Lynn Rhodes’ design?! So ethereal! Go Sloane!]

[Director Kensington’s choice is sharp, that’s the Paloma Quinn in my heart!]

As more and more people saw Selena Kensington’s Weibo, people from The Aura Showcase started to notice too.

"Director, this..."

A nearby assistant was a bit scared to look at Lana Blanchett’s expression.

Lana Blanchett’s face was somewhat sullen at this moment, and even a bit unpleasant.

"Lynn Rhodes actually managed to connect with Selena Kensington, she really has skills!..."

The assistant quickly said, "Director, she wasn’t our opponent before, now it’s even more impossible..."

Lana Blanchett glared at the assistant angrily.

"What do you understand?! Her current patron is Selena Kensington!"

With Selena Kensington covering her, Lynn Rhodes is no longer the pushover she used to be!

Lana Blanchett felt a headache, remembering the past events made her a bit scared.

She irritably waved her hand, "You can leave now."

"Yes."

The assistant hurriedly retreated.

When she was alone in the office, Lana Blanchett thought for a while, then picked up the phone to make a call.

"Hello? Catherine... "

Lana Blanchett’s voice was gentle, her smile ingratiating.

"I’ve encountered some small troubles, concerning Selena Kensington..."

"Huh?..."

Lana Blanchett’s expression suddenly froze.

"You’re saying you’re powerless too?... Okay..."

Lana Blanchett hung up the phone, her grip on the phone tightened.

If Catherine Blanchett won’t help her, will she just have to wait to be exposed?!

Lynn Rhodes appeared this time, probably because of previous incidents...

Lana Blanchett gritted her teeth, if Lynn Rhodes appeared because of her, why not take the initiative?

Lana Blanchett dialed the internal line, "Go investigate Lynn Rhodes’ contact information."

Selena Kensington only learned about Lynn Rhodes’ matter a few days later when Lynn Rhodes came to the office to find her.

She was discussing the casting with Lea Dutton, and they were a bit surprised when Lynn Rhodes arrived.

"Miss Kensington, I think you are in trouble."

Lynn Rhodes said.

Selena Kensington was a bit puzzled, "Why."

"Yesterday, I met with The Aura Showcase’s art director Lana Blanchett. She... was my former teacher."

Speaking of Lana Blanchett, Lynn Rhodes’ expression was somewhat embarrassed and contemptuous.

"She invited me, saying if I joined The Aura Showcase, she wouldn’t hold any grudges."

"When I refused her, she threatened to expose our relationship, using public opinion to pressure you."

Thus, public opinion would certainly believe Selena Kensington has issues with The Aura Showcase, being overly biased.

Because in the public’s eye, The Aura Showcase is the famous one in the industry, whereas Lynn Rhodes is just an early sensation designer.

Comparing the two, the public would naturally lean towards The Aura Showcase.

Selena Kensington slightly furrowed her brows, "What grudge do you have with Lana Blanchett?"

Lana Blanchett, The Blanchett Family?

Lynn Rhodes paused, "...Lana Blanchett plagiarized my work before."

"The ’Orchid,’ ’Sunny Spread,’ and other original pieces in The Aura Showcase were based on my design drafts, which she modified slightly before presenting them to the public."

Lea Dutton suddenly spoke, "Is it the ’Summer Bloom’ series?"

Lynn Rhodes nodded.

Lea Dutton looked at Selena Kensington, "Sister, I know about this. ’Summer Bloom’ was launched by The Aura Showcase last year, and the series has garnered quite a fan following even now."

"I didn’t expect these were plagiarized from Lynn Rhodes’ works!"

Selena Kensington furrowed her brows, having heard Felicity Dalton mention some disgraceful tactics of The Aura Showcase before, she didn’t expect Lana Blanchett actually plagiarized even her student’s work.

"At that time, I was powerless with no backing, whereas Lana Blanchett was different, not only being The Aura Showcase’s art director but also a member of The Blanchett Family... That’s why I chose to stay silent."

Lynn Rhodes said.

Selena Kensington looked at her, "You handled it well." 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

If Lynn Rhodes had been stubborn and wanted to confront Lana Blanchett head-on, she would have ended up in a pitiful situation.

Luckily, she endured quietly, only posting her works online silently, hiding her talents.

"Do you still have the drafts of those works Lana Blanchett plagiarized from you?"

Selena Kensington asked.

Lynn Rhodes was stunned, then nodded, "I’ve brought them all."

Because Lynn Rhodes was alone, and she didn’t feel safe leaving her works at home.
