Who was Mr. Reed?
In recent years, there were a dozen of renowned designers that came into the public view of Summery. Three of these designers were universally recognized a s the top designers.
On the other hand, those three designers were all Mr. Reed's apprentices without exception!
When Mr. Reed was young, his achievements illuminated a whole generation.
As he aged, the apprentices he taught were all similarly brilliant.
He was the true first man of the interior design industry.
In fact, no one else was qualified to compete the moniker of 'first man’ with him.
"Mr. Reed, it's actually Mr. Reed." Susan Shelby’s eyes lit up brightly.
Mr. Reed's work was considered an obligatory course for designers like them. She had lost count of how many pieces of Mr. Reed’s work that she studied in detail since she was attending university until she started working!
His work was a combination of delicateness and majesticness.
The works contained an untraceable wholeness and harmony.
It was simply...
Perfect!
Now that it was announced that Mr. Reed was the judge, it was time for her to meet Mr. Reed in person and perhaps she could even receive his guidance.
Susan felt that she was so overjoyed that she almost lost her mind.
"Don't get excited first. Read everything, read everything first." Chance Hamilton suppressed his excitement.
Was there even better news than Mr. Reed’s presence?
Susan continued reading.
Then, her eyes lit up abruptly.
A new reward was added to the competition.
One of the top ten contestants would be chosen as Mr. Reed's final direct apprentice.
One person could become Mr. Reed's apprentice and it was the position of the final direct apprentice. The news was enough to drive everyone mad.
Alya almost lost her mind when she leaned closer and read to this part. "Oh oh oh oh, it’s the opportunity to b e taken in as Mr. Reed’s apprentice! Why didn't I put in more effort in my preparations at that time!"
"Me too! I would have stopped eating and fully engaged in designing if I knew about this. Perhaps I would have gotten myself shortlisted this way."
Other than Chance and Susan, the rest of the people inside the office were howling sorrowfully.
"The shortlisted contestants will be gathering at Universal Tower at two in the afternoon." The head of the design department took a glance at them and said smilingly, "Mr. Shaw said the staff members that are shortlisted in the competition will receive full support from the company. Both of you do not need to work in the afternoon. Don't worry, your wages won't be deducted."
Chance and Susan could not help cheering in joy.
Susan sent Julian Shaw a text message when she returned to her seat.
'Mr. Reed is actually coming! Why didn’t you tell me this in advance!'
As the biggest sponsor of the competition, it was impossible for Julian to not know about this information.
Julian smiled and typed swiftly. ‘Aren't you surprised?'
'Very,' Susan replied earnestly.
'Strive to become one of the top ten finalists,' replied Julian.
She would stand a chance to be taken as Mr. Reed's apprentice by becoming one of the top ten finalists.
Susan felt her willpower to fight was burning.
She had one more reason to win now.
In the afternoon at Universal Tower.
All the thirty shortlisted designers were there, the group of people waited for Mr. Reed’s arrival eagerly.
