Chapter 103


    Chapter 103


    A chill ran down Gwen’s spine. She started to worry for Caroline.


    However, Caroline seemed as if she were unaware of the predicament she was in. Her tone was


    rxed and sincere when she said. “Of course, I’m happy that she’s won with the skills she has.”


    The smile on La’s face faltered. Nobody besides herself knew exactly how she’d gotten first ce.


    After hearing what Caroline said, the crowd started apuding once again.


    The way she spoke was sincere and magnanimous. Compared to La, Caroline was straightforward


    and big–hearted. Naturally, she deserved some praise and respect from them.


    After giving out the awards, the top live contestants and the CEOs of the sponsoring brands took a


    group photo together.


    La Intentionally waved the trophy in her hands beside Caroline to irk her. Her efforts were in vain


    because Caroline wasn’t affected in the least and simply looked at the camera.


    Multiple clicks sounded from the camera. The photographer took a great many shots in a row. After the


    photography session, everyone else started leaving the stage.


    La called Caroline to stop, and thetter turned around.


    Pushing her wheelchair to move in Caroline’s direction, La looked up at her and said, “I told you.


    The one who has thestugh is the


    true winner. And you, Caroline, have lost.”


    Caroline nced at the trophy on La’sp and bent to whisper into her ear. “La, you and I both


    know your skills. You might’ve seeded in fooling the others, but it doesn’t work on me.”


    When they were young, Caroline had always done La’s homework for art ss for her.

    Sure, La could im that she’d now taken away the glory that was supposed to be Caroline’s.


    No matter what, Caroline was the only one who knew how much effort she’d put in to be an


    eligible wife for Eddy. She couldn’t even count the number of times her fingers had peeled off and bled


    after practicing the piano for too long.


    The higher one climbed without proper effort, the harder one would fall.


    La paled at Caroline’s words, and she tried to stay calm by taking deep breaths.


    A momentter, she sneered. “You might think that I’m not good enough, but the judges think I’m fine.


    What can you do to change that? It’s like you and Eddy. You like him so much, but I’m the one he


    loves.”


    Caroline shook her head slowly. She failed to understand why La still thought she could provoke her


    by putting Eddy in the picture. She would have seeded in the past, but it was simply impossible


    now.


    “Yeah, yeah. He loves you so much that he’d die for you. He shows his love for you by wanting to


    marry you and letting you get run over by a car the next day.” Although Caroline spoke slowly, her voice


    was bright and clear.


    It angered La even more. If it hadn’t been for the people around them, she would’ve strangled


    Caroline to death. 1


    With heightened spirits, Caroline walked down from the stage. Gwen approached her and peeked at


    La, who was behind her. “What did


    you two talk about?”


    “Nothing much,” said Caroline casually as she passed her trophy to Gwen. “Is this pretty?”


    Gwen took the trophy from Caroline and mumbled, “Yeah, it is, but it’s a shame that La got first


    ce. Even someone with her skills could win the contest. There’s definitely something fishy going on


    behind this.”


    Still, Caroline didn’t seem to be bothered at all. “These brands might have nothing to do with the


    Morrisons, but no one in Easton would risk offending them. All La needed to do was make a call,


    and she would have easily gotten first ce.”


    Regardless, Gwen was still immensely upset. “It’s so unfair. You should be the one to win this contest.”


    A soft smile appeared on Caroline’s lips, and she took out her phone to message Kirk. She wanted to


    know when he’de back.


    She clicked on the notification entitled “Novitius Contest Champlon Announced.” The post was


    published on its official page, and it shared the top five winners‘ designs with the public.


    Caroline scanned through the post, and her gaze fell on the design in the center of theption of


    designs. It was the first design she’de up with and the name at the bottom of the picture was none


    other than “La Evans.”
