On the way back, Giselle would not stop grumbling, "Lily, although we dodged a bullet earlier, your behavior today was very inappropriate.Due to your impulsiveness, our efforts were almost in vain."
Lily expected this from Giselle, but she did not expect her to be so long-winded, so she smiled at her, "Was it that serious?"
Seeing that Lily did not recognize the gravity of the situation, Giselle becdeadly serious, "Lily, I don't know how you could still smile.Do you think that nothing happened? It just so happened that you knew Mr.Parker's daughter, but what if you didn’t know her? What if his daughter didn't show up? What if she didn’t think of you as her friend? "When we are in someone else's territory, we are at the mercy of the host.The organizer was indeed negligent, but we can always give feedback to them later instead of accusing them in public.If they disqualify us over this..."
"Well, they didn’t include us as qualified candidates!" Lily interrupted Giselle.
She could not stand her ranting, "Please, there’s just too many ‘what ifs’ that you're suggesting."
Giselle was stunned there, not knowing what to say for a while.

Participants from Hyderland and other smaller countries do not matter here.In fact, it doesn’t matter whether we are qualified for this competition.Believe it or not, even if I won the prize this time, they’ll say I got it illegitimately."
The issue of discrimination was already prevalent here, and now that everyone knew that she was friends with Wesley Parker’s daughter, if she won the award, people would undoubtedly think that she got it through connections.
What Melanie said earlier was an excellent example.
Of course, Melanie did not represent everyone, but speople would think the sway.Lily could already foresee the consequences before she participated in the competition.
"Well..."
Giselle did not think of this.
When Lily started arguing with Wesley Parker, Giselle was only worried that Lily had offended him and Rebirth would not be able to expand their business abroad in the future.
What Lily said had just dawned on her.
"Then are we now in a dilemma?" Giselle said cautiously.
If Lily entered the competition, there would be two possible outcomes.
Firstly, losing and returning hin despair and, secondly, winning and being deemed illegitimate, which would not be glorious either.
If she withdrew from the competition, people may think she was intimidated, which would be worse.
In other words, Lily was damned if she did, damned if she didn’t.
"Yeah."
Lily nodded solemnly, but she was not very worried.
Still, she was better off distracting her assistant with this problem rather than keeping her by her side, muttering in her ears.

Upon returning to the hotel, Giselle went into her own room to work, presumably to do a routine report and think of a solution.
Lily could use silence and salone time.She entered her room and put on comfortable clothes before turning on her phone.
There were a few unread messages, one of which was a greeting emoji from Lisa.
Lily smiled and replied with an emoji.
There were also smessages from the company group chat.
There were sent by Jenny and Olivia.
They wanted to know whether she had arrived.
Lily checked in with them but omitted what happened at the reception banquet.She told them that she had fallen asleep due to jet lag.
Finally, she checked and confirmed that Alexander had not sent her any message, so she was a little disappointed.
Was he so busy that he did not even have tto send her a message? Her fingers tapped on her screen, wanting to send a message to him, but after pondering, she deleted it.
Why should she text him first if he did not text her?
