Chapter 1546: Accusing a Judge
Jacqueline Madan could humiliate her and her country, but she shouldn’t implicate Teacher Jill.
Jacqueline Madan’s expression darkened. “Miss Wen, are you so angry because I’m right? If not for Mr. de Castei, it’s totally impossible for you...”
“Pah!” A ruthless slap suddenly landed on Jacqueline Madan’s face, making the rest of Jacqueline Madan’s words get stuck in her throat.
And the reporters present had been observing the champion and the first runner-up of the competition. Now, seeing that the two of them were having a conflict, they instantly swarmed up to them and clicked their cameras away incessantly—it was like they were on steroids.
In this world, the most attractive news was always the tabloids that people could criticize.
The champion and first runner-up of the grand finals of the International Jewelry Design Competition held by the Milan World Expo clashed on the spot. Was it out of jealousy or there was more to it?
This was indeed a scandal that would make the reporters go crazy.
Jacqueline Madan was shocked by the sudden slap from Wen Xinya. Momentarily, she covered her burning face and didn’t know how to react. “You...”
Wen Xinya looked stern. Despite standing before Jacqueline Madan who was at least 1.75 meters tall, her harsh aura didn’t diminish the least bit. “Miss Madan, do you know what you just said? Accusing a judge—is this your most basic manners of being a participant?”
Doubting a judge’s most basic work ethics—this was the greatest humiliation to a judge.
Teacher Jill was a senior that she respected and a friend that she cherished. She couldn’t tolerate Jacqueline Madan belittling Teacher Jill right in front of her. Jacqueline Madan was unforgivable.
Although hitting Jacqueline Madan and making a big fuss out of this would affect her reputation, she didn’t regret her actions.
Because, under this kind of circumstance, if she chose to back off and tolerate it, Jacqueline Madan would definitely take it further. As the first runner-up of the competition, if Jacqueline Madan wanted to pursue it, Teacher Jill’s reputation would eventually suffer when the time came.
Thus, she had to strike first and immediately exterminate Jacqueline Madan’s doubt towards Teacher Jill.
The meaning behind Wen Xinya’s words made the reporters go wild. Jacqueline Madan was openly doubting a judge—was it because she wasn’t happy with the competition results, jealous of the champion Wen Xinya, or was there more to it?
Only then did Jacqueline Madan react as she said with a slightly twisted expression, “Miss Wen, don’t be too much.”
At this point, Wen Xinya and Jacqueline Madan were already surrounded by reporters. The competition organizers, association, as well as the judges all acutely sensed that something was off and rushed over to help.
Seeing the circumstance, Jacqueline Madan already vaguely realized it and started regretting her rash words just now. Doubting a judge wasn’t a minor issue and was something that attracted both the jewelry business field and the media.
Moreover, she wasn’t doubting anyone else but an important member of the French Vogue International Jewelry Association who had an extremely good reputation in the judges’ field. Such a reputation and status couldn’t tolerate any smearing. Most importantly, she didn’t have any proof of her accusation towards the judge just now.
Now that Wen Xinya was making a big fuss out of this matter, she was starting a scandal and accusing a judge. Her reputation would be done for—even if she won the first runner-up of the competition, her life was ruined.
Jacqueline Madan totally didn’t expect Wen Xinya to actually be so ruthless.
Wen Xinya looked at Jacqueline Madan coldly. “Miss Madan, the outcome of the grand finals is decided by the competition organizers, association, judges, as well as the audience present. If you’re unhappy with the outcome, you can discuss it with the competition organizers. Why do you have to implicate Teacher Jill?
“Yes, indeed, I know Teacher Jill. However, Teacher Jill is a world-renowned jewelry design judge. Due to his occupation, he knows many jewelry designers all over the world. His work ethics is approved by the entire jewelry field, and his reputation doesn’t tolerate any smearing.”
Wen Xinya’s mild words explained the entire matter clearly.
Only then did the reporters understand that because Jacqueline Madan was jealous of Wen Xinya for winning the champion title of the competition, she used Wen Xinya’s friendship with Jill de Castei to accuse a judge.
No wonder Wen Xinya was so angry and even hit Jacqueline Madan on the spot. Accusing a judge was the greatest humiliation to a judge.
“I... I...” Jacqueline Madan was speechless as she stood blankly in front of Wen Xinya, oppressed by her aura and attacked by the weird, cold, despising, and detesting glares of everyone present as the cameras in the hands of the reporters fired flashes at her face incessantly.
All of these made her feel embarrassed.
However, Wen Xinya didn’t plan to just let her off like this. Since she’d started it, she wanted to finish the job. “Now, in front of all the reporters, please provide proof of your accusation of the judge and me. Otherwise, it proves that you’re purposely creating a scandal, and you must apologize to me and Teacher Jill in front of everyone.”
If it were in China, Wen Xinya’s actions might make many people feel that she was overbearing, because China was a country which believed in mercy towards others. However, it was a foreigner who stood before Wen Xinya. The strong communal view would make them think that Wen Xinya’s actions were defending her own pride, which was worth looking up to.
And this was Italy, situated in Europe. Europeans believed that people should respect each other in their interactions. Such an act of seriously humiliating others was an unforgivable act that everyone despised.
Wen Xinya’s request for a public apology was an understandable act.
Jacqueline Madan couldn’t help but regret triggering Wen Xinya. She had thought that she was just timid and weak, just like those Chinese that she saw in the French Saint Rabier Jewelry Institute who were bullied by everyone.
However, she couldn’t have expected that when Wen Xinya extended her harsh claws, she would lose all her reputation.
At this point, an incredible sound rang around them.
