Nayeon ignored the taunting from hyunjoo's manager and remained calm.
At this time, the lift doors opened to reveal Stenson's assistant standing outside. Upon seeing hyunjoo, he walked up to her and greeted, "Miss Lim, welcome...Mr. Stenson is inside waiting for you."
Everyone that walked out of the lift froze in confusion, especially hyunjoo and her manager as their faces turned red.
Nayeon suddenly understood when Stenson told her something went wrong, what he was referring to.
It turned out, the assistant had messed up their identities...and Stenson had forgotten to correct his assistant.
"Miss Lim?"
"I am not Miss Lim!" even though hyunjoo felt a little awkward, she still rectified the truth.
"I can't be wrong. Stenson wanted Nayeon, which is you..." Stenson's assistant pulled out Nayeon's portfolio and flipped through it. After seeing Nayeon's photo, he realized he had made a mistake, "Oh God, I made a mistake."
"So, the spokesperson Excalibur Q wants, is it hyunjoo or Nayeon?" hyunjoo's manager asked angrily.
The assistant's face flushed red as he looked ambiguously at hyunjoo and Nayeon. He struggled to make out a word.
Instead, Dahyun straightforwardly said, "Let's go, it's almost time to sign the contract. It's impolite to be late."
Nayeon walked past everyone and walked ahead, leaving the awkward hyunjoo and her manager behind.
hyunjoo's manager didn't want to admit defeat, so she pulled hyunjoo and followed behind, "We were also contacted by Excalibur Q to come sign a contract..."
After seeing this, Stenson's assistant's face changed from red to white. He didn't know how he was to settle this situation.
Upon noticing hyunjoo and her assistant following them, dahyun couldn't help but laugh, "If you can't win, then you can't win."
"I refuse to believe that they wouldn't pick someone as great as hyunjoo. Is there something wrong with Excalibur Q? Why would they pick someone with such a low international status?"
dahyun didn't respond. He knew, if hyunjoo was to walk in like this, she would be even more embarrassed.
Not long after, they entered Stenson's office together. However...Stenson spotted hyunjoo entering behind. He couldn't avoid feeling awkward. He patted his head and said to hyunjoo's manager, "I am so sorry Miss Lee, it was all my assistant's mistake. He contacted the wrong person. I am truly apologetic."
"Excalibur Q chose Nayeon?" hyunjoo directly asked.
"Yes, that's correct," Stenson nodded his head. "Let my assistant escort you back to the hotel."
"Can you tell me why?" hyunjoo sounded like she was suppressing her anger; she obviously did not understand Stenson's decision. If she had lost to a supermodel like Hirai Momo she would not have questioned it, but what was so great about Nayeon?
She couldn't win against the other people at Crown. Couldn't she even win against Nayeon?
"This is the result of a vote held by Excalibur Q. We believe that Miss Lim is a more suitable spokesperson for Excalibur Q than Miss Lee."
"What vote? If it was internally set, just say it..." hyunjoo's manager couldn't contain her emotions as she spoke to Stenson with hostility.
Stenson straightforwardly replied, "That is an insult to us and an insult to yourself."
