Edwin, who had been watching Catelyn, stood up with a smile on his face and clapped. “As expected of
Miss Catelyn! You’ve truly opened my eyes. This presentation is definitely worthwhile.”
Followed by that was a sea of applause by the rest of the judges.
Lola, on the other hand, felt her face burn in embarrassment.
She had accused Catelyn of plagiarism and revoked her right to enter the competition. However, that

power to object, anyway. “Yes, Mister Atherton.”
Lola suppressed her anger and excused herself to the washroom. She did not expect Catelyn to pull it off

Plagued with frustration, she sat on the toilet seat when the sounds of heels clicking against the floor and
the sounds of chit-chats got progressively closer. “Lola must be knocking her head against the wall right

“She deserves it. I’ve never liked how arrogant she is, anyway. I heard that her mother used to be Henry

call from her best friend, Joanne. Joanne was a famous local celebrity, yet she had more anti-fans than
real fans.
Her antis, however, were the ones that pushed her to the road of fame.
Joanne had finally gotten a more likable character to play lately and had been traveling overseas to
shoot. The reception where she was at was pretty bad, so she had not been in touch with Catelyn for the
