Donald shot the man an annoyed look, asking, “And who the heck are you?”
This guy has been awfully quiet while Natalie and Camille were insulting Jennifer earlier. Why would he suddenly butt in after I called White Swan ugly?
“This gentleman here is Harold Dawson. Mr. Dawson is the key makeup artist in Queen Lowe's team and also the one who picked out White Swan,” Natalie introduced solemnly before the man could even say anything.
“Oh, that explains your strong reaction. You were the one who picked the gown for her, huh?” Donald stared at Harold seriously. “In that case, I seem to have gotten the wrong idea about Wynter. It's not her fashion sense that needs work, but her ability to hire the right person for the job.”
The look on Harold's face turned gloomy instantly.
All of Yorksland's entertainment industry treat me with the utmost respect! Heck, even Wynter wouldn't dare say a word about my fashion sense!
“I wasn't planning on getting involved in your little squabble, but you questioning my taste is absolutely unacceptable. I believe White Swan is one of the best gowns out there. If you can find one that can surpass it, I will admit defeat and retire from the entertainment industry! If you can't find a better gown, then you are to leave Supreme Gala immediately. I do not want to see you at the banquet after this!” Harold snapped back at him with a sneer.
There were some gowns out there that looked better than White Swan, but Harold did not think Donald was knowledgeable enough to identify them.
That was the key difference that separated professionals from non-professionals.
For example, it would be near impossible for an average person to win an argument with a mechanic over which spare parts were of better quality.
