However, the initial selection process had very little to do with Charlotte Thompson and the other judges.
Having read the script in advance, Charlotte knew that once the selection process ended, the remaining contestants would be divided into various groups. Each of the four judges would lead a group, and the final competition would take place after all the finished garments were completed.
But such an arrangement quite bothered Charlotte.
She really wasn't good at these leadership tasks.
And...
Charlotte couldn't help but cast her eyes on the contestants on the stage.
Zoe Anne had already won the first round of competition, earning the right to choose first.
Perhaps because of the adulation from the crowd and her first-place standing, Zoe had a smug expression on her face.
Many live audience members, including some of Zoe's fans, waved at her, adding to her smugness.
Zoe shifted her gaze, spotting Charlotte at the judges' table, and absently fussed with her fringe.
