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.

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.
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
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmtowards 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!]
