Chapter 5: Destiny.

Bella got a VIP seat in the hall. Mr. Peter Husk had to go out for some work.  And they could not attend the competition. So he gave his seat to Bella.

The competition had begun.  Mr. Charles manager will be on stage and starting the show he said, “Mr. Harry Adkins, the boss of the famous fashion company, is the guests here today's competition”.

I went to the hall after the announcement. Olivia and Jack were walking with me.

Olivia said softly to me, "Harry, you're well known now. The whole hall is standing to welcome you.

I turned to Olivia and gave her a slight smile and I didn't answer her.

Olivia and Jack were sitting in the second seat in the hall behind me and for me, there was a VIP seat at the front of the hall.

I went to my seat.  Bella was sitting next to my seat. I went to my seat and stood up and I started looking at Bella. Maybe she's sitting here by mistake or this girl is a special guest. Or this girl is related to some business then she is sitting here.  Otherwise, looking at this girl, it does not seem that she is related to any fashion industry.

Then I sat down on my seat.  Bella was constantly looking at some pictures on her phone. She never looked up at me. I looked at her phone which was completely broken.

Then a man came and he came to Bella and said, "Miss Isabella?"

Bella raised her head and looked at the boy and said, "Yes”.

The boy said to Bella, "I was sent by Mr. Peter Husk. Tell me if you need anything."

Without saying a word, Bella looked at the boy and shook her head.

Then the boy left. I was very surprised to hear Mr. Peter's name. He is a great businessman and what kind of relationship can this girl have with him?

When the first designer was presenting her design. Bella started looking at the stage.

Suddenly Bella's eyes fell on me.  She would suddenly start looking at me in fear and quickly she began to look around. Bella didn't feel comfortable seeing me with her.

Then I completely ignored it and I started focusing on the show.

Then a designer's name was taken on stage.  Bella was overjoyed to hear the name. And she looked excitedly on stage.  The designs that the designer showed were amazing.

Bella did not see any other participant’s designs during the entire competition. But she was happy to see the final design.  As if that design were.

Mr. Harry, I want you to come on stage. Then I got up and went on stage.

Two girls were winners in the competition.  But the first winner was selected for the fashion company.

Mr. Charles announced the name.  The first winner was Miss Jennifer. And the other winner was Miss Ella but Miss Jennifer was selected by the fashion company.

Bella was very sad during the result announcement. And she began to think that if her design had not been bad, she would have had a chance here today.

And Bella was sad for Ella too because Ella couldn't select.

Then I came back from the stage and sat down. Bella looked very confused.

Olivia and Jack were sitting in the other section.  Jack did not like such competition shows.  He was always looking for some excuse so that he would not have to attend any show.

Olivia told jack pointing towards Ella, "Jack I see that girl Ella, I have seen her designs and her designs are amazing and praiseworthy".

Jack was getting bored in the competition and was sleepy. His boredom was visible all over his face.

Jack turned towards Olivia and asked, “who is Ella?”

Olivia turned towards him and pointed again towards the stage, “That girl, who secured the second position in the competition, her name is Ella”.

Jack smirked and looked at Olivia, “Olivia! My friend, no wonder you have A huge social circle. you always know someone even in other countries”.

Olivia laughed, “Well, In our profession, One is bound to have many connections”.

“Okay! Tell me who she is and how you met her?” Jack asked.

Olivia explained how she met her while visiting Mr. Peter before the Competition started, “ Mr. Peter introduced her to me. Her name is Ella and she is also a daughter of a well-known businessman”.

Jack started to think about something and told Ella that it’s good to have a relation with her as she is related to Mr. Peter, Our new business partner.

“Jack, You surely always think about gains and profit in business and also in our Social connections”.

Olivia suddenly remembered something that she forgot to tell Jack and said hardly, “Oh Jack! I forgot to tell you something really important.

Mr. Peter mentioned a girl to me and was seemed to be extremely impressed by that girl. She is a genius in fashion designing and Ella will introduce her to me after the party”.

Suddenly Jack saw Harry and started starring at him. Jack asked Olivia, “why is Harry sitting beside a girl?.

Wasn’t his seat along Mr. Peter. Olivia turned towards Harry and wanted to know who was the girl sitting beside him.

Jack asked Olivia, “when did Mr. Peter start to have such long hair. Surely it doesn’t suit his style".

Olivia started laughing and said, “Stupid, do you think he is Mr. Peter. Surely it is Mr. Peter’s seat but some girl is sitting there. Jack, you are still humorous as you always used to be.

After the competition, Ella came looking for Bella. Harry also left with Mr. Charles. Bella congratulated Ella, Ella! “I am really happy for your success with a little more effort you would have secured the first position”.

Both Ella and Bella started to go back to their room. They plan to rest for some while before meeting other designers to increase their social circle.

Ella went to the washroom in order to change her dress as her dress was really heavy and it was difficult for her to carry such a heavy dress around.

And Bella laid down to get some rest while Ella was getting changed.

Olivia was waiting for Harry and Harry was busy with Mr. Charles. When Harry came back to his room he saw jack and Olivia who were already in his room waiting for him.
