chapter 1906
McKenzie decided to keep herself in check for the time being and offered an elegant smile instead. "Of course not. But, I heard that Ms. Annabel is ill. Had Ms. Charmine neglected her and came here anyway?" "It's true that something urgent happened to Annabel." Charmine stared at her and smirked. "But, I’ve treated her with the needles and relieved the symptoms."
Half an hour ago, at the Bailey mansion...
Annabel had regained consciousness, but her condition did not seem too optimistic. She might faint anytime, and her brain might suffer from damages.
When she opened her eyes and saw Charmine, she panicked and said, "Ms. Charmine, why are you still here? Hurry and go to the competition! Don’t be late!" "She's awake now, my dear," Anthony added. "Let's go.”
Susan, meanwhile, had other things to say. "You’re too kind, Annabel.
You're still in danger, yet you're asking the only person who could help you to leave?"
The pale-faced Annabel thus feebly responded, "I'm fine; I know my body well. This isn't something life- threatening at all, but Ms. Charmine's competition affects her marriage with President Bailey. She can't be late! Also, the doctor will be here soon, so I'm fine...really!"
Annabel said urgently as she held onto Charmine's hand, "Ms. Charmine, please go! If you're late because of me, I'll feel guilty for the rest of my life."
Susan crossed her arms and stood by the side coldly. She was downright livid.
Annabel was too kind!
She could have used this opportunity to break up Charmine and Anthony. This was her chance!
Annabel’s reaction, however, did win the favor of Grandma Bailey.
If this was anyone else, she would have used this opportunity to break up Charmine and Anthony...yet Annabel did not.
In fact, she was genuinely worried about Charmine’s competition. She did not care about her possibly dangerous condition and wanted Charmine to compete! 2
Susan thought Annabel was too kind. She did not believe her in the beginning, but she eventually began to believe her when Annabel said she was fine.
After Charmine had felt her pulse and knew that Annabel was not in danger, she quickly rushed toward Light Plaza.
Charmine glared at McKenzie and smiled. "Ms. McKenzie, how do you know so much about what's going on in my family?"
McKenzie froze for a moment, yet her composure never wavered as she quickly responded, "I heard it from my assistant."
Charmine smiled coldly and did not continue this topic. Instead, she asked, "What do you want to compete on?"
McKenzie looked at Miranda coldly.
Miranda thus announced with a serious tone, "Firstly, languages. Each of you will say a sentence in a different language. If the next person can't continue the sentence, the person will lose.
"Secondly, assembling phones. The person who assembles the highest- performing phone will win.
"Thirdly, motorcycle races at Death Trail. Whoever pulls the break out of fear will lose first!"
Death Trail was a trail around the mountain which led to a cliff. Countless people had lost their lives racing in the area.
Charmine did not even blink at any of these challenges as she agreed." Okay," she answered with perfect calmness.
It was as if it was a simple game.
With that, the event commenced.
The crowd broke into two groups. Of course, 70 percent of the crowd supported McKenzie.
Everyone raised flags as everyone respectively supported both women.
"Ms. McKenzie, you'll win! Good luck! Good luck!" "Charmine, my boss! Beat her!"
The atmosphere was intense, and countless reporters started broadcasting the events. The live stream instantly trended online, instantly ranking at the top of the trending page.
Everyone cheered for both McKenzie and Charmine on the streaming platform.
With that, the first competition started.
McKenzie and Charmine stood opposite one another. One of them was elegant, and the other was bold.
They were as competitive as one another. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
McKenzie looked at Charmine coldly, and pride gleamed in her pupils. She exuded confidence all over.
