    Chapter 101


    Caroline kept thinking about Kirk’s words, which had left her hanging. If it weren’t for the fact that she’d


    received some news about the contest, she would’ve forgotten that the results were going to be


    announced soon.


    This contest was especially grand. It was the first time these major brands came together to organize a


    packaging design contest of such a huge scale, after all,


    The announcement venue was as spectacr as an award ceremony.


    Gwen took in the sight of the tables full of desserts and clucked her tongue in satisfaction. “As


    expected of an event organized by such big brands, even the desserts here are from well–known


    manufacturers.”


    Caroline tossed her a sideways nce. “Since when were you so Interested In food?”


    With a guilty face worthy of a convict, Gwen tried to exin herself. “We’ve been going out for food all


    the time these days. I’ve be a


    foodie.”


    Caroline didn’t doubt what Gwen said. She simply walked around and found a seat for herself while


    Gwen sat beside her.


    Those who hade for the event today had been shortlisted as the top hundred in the contest. The


    organizers had allowed each of


    them to bring two rtives along with them.


    Caroline had wanted to bring Kirk along, but he hadn’t returned yet. In the end, she could only bring


    Gwen along with her.


    Sitting next to her, Gwen said, “I heard that besides getting money as a reward, the one who wins first


    ce will receive a special prize. Do you know what it is?”


    Caroline’s focus wasn’t on the prizes. She’d just joined the contest to gain experience. “I hope that it’s a


    position for a job.” she answered


    Gwen casually.


    She wasn’t putting her hopes on it, though. After all, it wasn’t like the organizers could read her mind.


    Gwen stroked her chin thoughtfully. “Carol, are you the breadwinner of your family now?”


    The tips of Caroline’s ears turned red. “What are you talking about? I’ve left the Evans family. It’s only


    natural that I have to make a living.”


    Her reaction made Gwenugh. “Then why are you blushing?”


    Caroline couldn’t bear the embarrassment and shifted the topic. “Alright, that’s enough. They’re going


    to announce the results soon. I’m a


    bundle of nerves now.”


    “What’s there to be nervous about?” Gwen had full faith in Caroline. “I’m positive that you’re going to


    win first ce.”

    Smiling, Caroline was about to reply when a ruckus broke out in the crowd.


    Curious, she and Gwen turned in that direction, only to see La in a wheelchair. She was being


    pushed into the venue by a care worker.


    Gwen’s expression shifted almost immediately. “La? Why is she here?” She furrowed her brows.


    “Don’t tell me she participated in the


    contest too.”


    As Gwen spoke, the care worker had already pushed La to Caroline’s side. Lots of people around


    them had already recognized Caroline and they all looked on, eager to enjoy a good show.


    “Caroline.” La had a pale countenance, but her smile was bright. “You never expected to meet me


    here, right?”


    Caroline tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, tantly ignoring La as she did so.


    Still, La appeared to be unbothered by this. “Everything will change after tonight. All the glory and


    honor that could be yours will be mine. You’ll meet your doom very soon!”


    Furious, Gwen rushed forward and interrupted her. “Mind your words!”


    Holding Gwen back, Caroline turned to face La coolly and sald. “Have you received the summons


    from the court?”


    Her words made La’s face turn as pale as a she
