Chapter 644: Chapter 644: Sisters Meet


    However, Cindy rke seemed indifferent. Instead, she worried that people might try to gain some advantage by exploiting her rtionship with Adrian Zhekova.


    Although she was certain nothing could be gained from her, she still felt bothered.


    The main awards given out tonight were trophies and cash prizes.


    The cash prizes for the top 10 contestants were all the same, with no distinction between higher or lower ranks, and so were the trophies.


    This was a benefit and encouragement provided by Belfard’s city government specifically for the top 10 contestants of the Cooking Competition, considering that there would be a final ranking in the end for the majorpetition.


    Ultimately, only the champion could win a cash prize.


    This was inevitably somewhat cruel, so the Belfard city government had organized such a banquet.


    At the same time, it served as an opportunity for mutual cooperation between the contestants and variouspanies in the catering industry.


    In addition to the awards presented tonight, the organizers had also invited some literary and artistic performers to put on shows.


    These were not popr stars, but rather actors from theater troupes, unknownedians, and crosstalk artists, among others.<div>


    Since they were not famous, they were affordable and would not leave the banquet dull.


    This annual banquet was not organized by the Pin Culinary Competition, including Gale Enterprises, but was independently organized by the Belfard city government.


    So, no one from Pin Group attended, nor did anyone from the Pin Culinary Competition.


    Although it was an awards ceremony for 10 people, it would be quite dull if all 10 of them finished their awards and had nothing to do afterwards.


    So every year, each of the 10 contestants received an award with a different title.


    “I’d like to go to the restroom,” dys Joy whispered. There were a total of four girls, including Cindy rke.


    dys Joy asked, “Do you want to go too?”


    Cynthia Florine immediately nodded, “Sure, sure.”


    She loved going to the restroom as a group, even if she didn’t need to freshen up, she enjoyed going together.


    Jasmine Hudson nodded indifferently.


    She didn’t have a need but could wait for them outside.


    So, dys Joy looked at Cindy rke, and since everyone was going, Cindy said, “I’ll go with you guys.”


    Thus, the four of them left the banquet hall together.


    They walked down the corridor for a while before reaching the restroom.


    Only dys Joy and Cynthia Florine needed to go in.


    Jasmine Hudson waited outside.


    dys Joy asked Cindy rke again, to which she replied, “I won’t go in either, I’ll wait for you outside.”


    “Don’t you want to touch up your makeup?”


    Cindy turned on the front camera of her mobile phone, looked at herself, and said, “My makeup is fine, no need to touch up.”<div>


    So, she and Jasmine Hudson waited outside for them.


    Girls usually take longer to freshen up, and considering both of them are wearing short evening gowns, it would also take some effort to get dressed, touch up their makeup, look in the mirror, and be a little vain. They probably won’t be out anytime soon.


    Cindy and Jasmine were prepared for a longer wait outside.


    Just a short while after Cynthia Florine and dys Joy had just entered, Cindy suddenly heard someone call her name: “Cindy!”<div>


    The voice was a mixture of confusion, surprise, and astonishment. It was hard to believe that such a simple set of emotions could be conveyed so intricately with just these two sybles.


    Cindy thought that Wendy rke would be a waste not to be an actress. An actor who could express suchplex emotions with just two words would surely win the audience’s approval.


    Who wouldn’t praise her acting skills?


    Yes, the person calling Cindy was Wendy rke.


    Even though they hadn’t seen each other for five years and hadn’t heard Wendy’s voice during that time, Cindy recognized her voice immediately from these two words.


    Of course, it wasn’t just because Cindy had a deep memory of Wendy’s voice, but also because Adrian Zhekova had reminded her that Wendy hade to Belfard.


    Adrian Zhekova could have stopped Wendy, but he had other ns.


    Instead of constantly guarding against her, it would be better to deal with Wendy sooner rather thanter.


    Wendy came to Belfard not only to find Cindy but also to target Edward Lopez.


    And even without Edward Lopez, there were still Edward Lopez and Edward Carter.


    Wendy’s ambition to marry into a wealthy family was firm and far-reaching.


    So, Adrian Zhekova did not stop Wendy but let here in for a try, also allowing Cindy to be mentally prepared.


    Cindy also agreed with Adrian’s approach.<div>


    She was bound to confront Wendy sooner orter. She couldn’t hide for the rest of her life.


    Besides, she was now Adrian’s wife and a daughter-inw of the Zhekova Family. Did she have to be a shrinking turtle and hide from Wendy?


    That would be a disgrace to Adrian and the Zhekova Family.


    As a member of the Zhekova Family, she could not avoid problems.


    So, when she heard Wendy’s voice, Cindy was not surprised at all.


    She just calmly turned around and saw Wendy walk out of thedies’ restroom.


    Immediately, Wendy grabbed Cindy’s arm, fearing she would run away. “Howe you’re here? It’s such a coincidence that I can meet you here.”


    Cindy nodded and replied coldly, “Indeed, it’s a coincidence. I didn’t expect to meet you here.”


    Wendy continued, “Actually, it’s not so much a coincidence. Isn’t there an awards banquet for the top 10 contestants of your Cooking Competition today? I was also among the invited guests, so I came over. However, I was dyed by some matters and arrivedte, just now. I thought you might be one of the top 10 contestants and might attend the banquet, so I came to try my luck.”


    Wendy smiled and asked, “Did I miss your time on stage?”


    Cindy, coldly trying to pull her arm away from Wendy’s grasp, was unsessful.


    She frowned slightly, “Sister, you’re hurting me.”


    Wendy’s smile stiffened for a moment before she let go and hurriedly said, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I was just too excited to see you and couldn’t control my strength.”<div>


    Wendy thought coldly in her heart, five years have passed, and Cindy has indeed grown more cunning.


    She even learned to pretend to be weak and act innocent, just like a white flower, disgusting to watch.


    After gaining her freedom, Cindy asked, “What are you doing here?”


    “Didn’t I say it? I’m here to watch your award ceremony,” Wendyughed.


    Cindy rified, “I mean, why did youe to Belfard?”


    “I saw you on the live broadcast of the Cooking Competition, so I came to check. Remember when our parents visited youst time? They told me that your life here was not very good, so I couldn’t help but worry. Also, I have some friends here, so I thought I’de and see them, too.”


    As Wendy spoke, she finally turned to Jasmine Hudson, “I’ve seen you in the live broadcast, too.”


    “Hello,” Jasmine had no prejudice against Wendy.


    She didn’t know Wendy at all, and Cindy hadn’t shared her past experiences with them.


    So, Jasmine didn’t know anything about Wendy.


    However, seeing Cindy’s rather cold response to Wendy, she couldn’t help but wonder what had happened between the two sisters.
