NovelOnlineLeopold's response caught everyone off guard.
Loraine’s blueprint was exceptional, earning the admiration of the expert cohort present.
Leopold, despite his high standing as a world-class architect, acted unbecomingly when he stormed out due to
his distaste for Loraine’s blueprint.
This left Loraine in a state of confusion and grievance.
Given his position as a top-notch architect, Leopold could have constructively criticized Loraine’s design, but to
dismiss her as devoid of architectural talent was unprofessional.
A blunt criticism from an eminent architect amounted to a total negation of her skills.

Had she not been president of the Universe Group, Leopold's scathing words could have jeopardized her future in
the field.
Loraine felt unjustly treated. She did not see herself as a prodigy, but she was assured of her competence.

Moreover, her design was a product of countless sleepless nights. She didn’t think she deserved any form of
derision.
She would have appreciated and duly considered professional criticism of her work from Leopold.
However, Leopold showed bias against her right from the beginning.
Loraine didn’t want a subjective critique based on preconceived notions to taint her work.
She queried, “Professor Zizka, could you justify your assertion that
I'm ill-suited for a career in architecture? Do my designs fall short in saspects? I'd like you to showthe
specifics. If not, | am left with the conclusion that your animosity towardstems from the personal
disagreements between your student and me!”
The room filled with gasps upon hearing her words.
Knowing of the previous disagreements between Loraine and Keely, the attendees began to whisper.
The idea that an industry titan Like Leopold would bear a grudge against Loraine simply because Keely was his
student was unbelievable.

It was unthinkable to them that he could stoop so low.
Upon hearing the murmurs, Leopold grew increasingly disturbed. Keely stood up and angrily pointed at Loraine.
“Loraine, your design is fraught with flaws. Why are you so resistant to accepting criticism? Do you want
everyone to shower you with praises, proclaiming you a genius? You think that would do you justice, right? My
mentor has more than enough qualifications to evaluate your work! No matter how you feel, you have no right to
berate him!”
Leopold lifted his palm, signaling her to cease. Keely, however, remained resolute, her language growing
increasingly insolent.
“Miss Torres, you're clueless when it comes to treating people respectfully. How in the world did you make it this
far without your family’s backing? Do you even have a right to question my mentor?”
In response, Loraine, seething with anger, surprisingly chuckled.
