Chapter 116 Which One's Mrs. Pearson?

• "I don't need you to lecture me!" Queenie uttered with a smirk. "Are you proud of yourself now? Even though I won the title of champion in The Emerging Designer Competition, and was in Aeras for three years, it seems I'm still no match for you. I bet you're secretly laughing at me, aren't you?"
• "I do find you pretty funny. I've never had the thought of surpassing you—you're the one who keeps comparing yourself to me. On the one hand, you understand that your skills are no match for mine, yet you feel like I should be one level below you since you got the opportunity to study in Aeras. It's almost as if studying there increases your worth as a person. On the other hand, regardless of whether we're talking about The Emerging Designer Competition or your studies in Paris, all of that happened three years ago. You're the one who keeps clinging onto the past," Leanna uttered.
• "Stop making yourself sound all righteous and principled. Everyone knows that you gave up on your chance for the sake of money. Do you think you're more elegant or classy than me? I don't think my artwork is any worse than yours—I'm just not as lucky as you are," Queenie replied. Leanna merely smiled without continuing the conversation. Instead, she turned and left the other woman behind.
