Mrs. Hawn, Your Disguise Was Penetrated

Asher's slender and upright figure walked towards the set. He took a steady pace and his well-tailored suit outlined his perfect and robust figure to the point.

His handsome face looked a bit cold with a pair of sharp and deep eyes gazing sharply ahead. His powerful aura was so strong that people were daunted at the sight of him.

He was so dignified that other people could not help but want to bow down to him.

The people who were talking fell silent in an instant and all of them looked towards the entrance.

"Mr. Hawn, you're just in time." As soon as Annie saw Asher, she walked towards him on her high heels and greeted him.

Although Asher's aura was so powerful that it was suffocating, Annie knew that at this moment she had to make a pre-emptive strike to convince Asher that everything was Nora's fault today.

It was Nora who had lost the button that delayed the progress of the commercial shoot and it was Nora who had deliberately wronged her.

As long as Asher believed her words, Nora would certainly come to no good end.

Thinking of this, Annie turned around to let Asher see her back and then said with an aggrieved look on her face, "Mr. Hawn, you see, this is the dress Miss Smith gave me."

Asher's cold gaze fell on Annie's gown, on which the diamond button in the middle of the row was conspicuously missing.

He frowned slightly, thinking that Nora would certainly not have made such an obvious mistake.

Seeing that Asher remained silent, Annie continued to act pitifully, twitching her mouth in grievance, "How can I shoot in such a dress? Besides, the buttons of the dresses of Leo Studio are all custom-made. Now that one of them is missing, we will have to ask the person in charge of Leo Studio to customize another button, and there is no telling until when we will have to wait.

The whole commercial was delayed because of Miss Smith's mistake, and that's fine, but she slandered me to absolve herself from guilt, saying that I had cut off the button. How is that possible? It's nonsense that I cut off the button myself, delayed the shooting and wasted my own time!"

"Why is that impossible?" Nora looked straight at Annie coldly.

Annie had a guilty conscience as Nora stared at her. She rolled her eyes at Nora and said, "Don't be ridiculous. Do you have any proof that I was the one who cut off the button?"

Nora spoke indifferently, "Before I gave you the dress, I had carefully checked it and the ten buttons were intact at that time. After you went to the fitting room to put on the dress, one button was missing.

There is no doubt that the button can only be lost in the fitting room and was deliberately cut off.

If the button fell off due to loose threads, there will certainly be threads left, but now we all see that the position of the lost button on the dress is smooth without any trace, so it can only be done by someone on purpose."

After a pause, Nora said, "And it's obvious who this person is, because the only people who were in the fitting room just now were you and your manager."

"Don't point your finger at me." Annie gave Nora a stern look, "If I cut the button off on purpose in the fitting room, why couldn't it be found in the fitting room just now?"

Nora said in retort, "That would be a question for you. Where did you leave the button?"

Annie snorted, "Don't be ridiculous. It's obvious that you have lost the button yourself. Why should we believe that you have checked it? Words alone are no proof. You said that just as an excuse for the mistake you have made."

"Of course it's not just a matter of words." Nora looked fully at ease, her eyes were fixed on Annie, and she spoke in a deep voice, "What if I can prove that it was you who cut off the button and threw it away on purpose?"

Annie's face changed as she looked into Nora's cold and stern eyes, "How can you prove it?"

There were no surveillance cameras in the fitting room and she had already thrown the button down the drain, so how could Nora prove anything?

She must have said that to mislead her deliberately!

Nora stepped forward and slowly spoke, "Annie, there's something that you definitely don't know."

Annie subconsciously asked, "What is it?"

"This gown you are wearing is custom-made by the Leo Studio for the Hawn Group, and the style of the gown is completely to highlight the theme of Ice and Fire." Nora said with a calm expression.

Annie was stunned, "So what?"

Nora continues, "In order to bring out the effect of the shoot, the designer has put a great deal of thought into the dress by applying a special substance to the diamond buttons, which will appear in different colors under different lights, thus highlighting the theme of 'Ice and Fire'."

This was a special design by Nora. In order to achieve a stunning effect, she had devised the idea of making the buttons change with different lights, and by changing the lights, the color of the buttons could be changed, switching at will between ice and fire.

Annie seemed a little uneasy, "So what does this tell us?"

"Doesn't that tell you anything?" Nora's gaze fell on Annie's hand and she said with a sarcastic smile, "When the cold light shines on the button, the button will appear snowy white, while it will appear fire red when the warm light shines on it.

You have cut off the button and thrown it away, your hands must have touched this special substance on the button, therefore, as long as the lighting technician uses different lights to shine on your hands, the truth will come out."

Annie's heart was beating wildly.

Was what Nora said true?

No, it could not be true! There was no such a magical substance in this world. She had never heard of it and Nora must have said it to scare her!

Nora was trying to make her panic and get her to show her true colors. She could not play into her hands!

Annie took a few deep breaths to keep her tone as smooth as possible and looked at Nora mockingly, "Nora, what are you talking about? How can such a substance exist? It's just nonsense!"

Nora laughed coldly, "You are so ignorant. The fact that you don't know it does not mean that there is no such substance. If you didn't do it, give it a try. Once you try, we will know the truth. Are you afraid to try?"

Annie gritted her teeth and glared fiercely at Nora, "Who says I'm afraid to try? I've never done it, so what's there to be afraid of?"

She secretly told herself that she must be calm, she must not be weak-minded, and she must not mess herself up and fall for Nora's trick.

"It's best if you dare to give it a try." Nora grabbed Annie's arm and raised her hand high in the air, then signaled the lighting technician, "Please shine the light on the diamond buttons on Annie's gown and then on Annie's hand."

The lighting technician looked at Asher with questioning eyes, only to see Asher nod with a cold face and speak in a deep voice, "Do as Nora says."
