Chapter 734
Tired of remaining stagnant, Charlotte decided to grow as she could not rely on Joseph and Fae all her life.
“Let's hear what the judges have to say!”
The host's voice shook the judges out of their reverie.
She was autistic? Simply shocking.
The audience could not tear their eyes from the score in awe when her average score was displayed on the screen.
“That's the highest score so far, isn't it?”
“This score is only a little higher than Olivia's.”
“Yeah. But Charlotte is really gifted.”
Caleb picked up the microphone. “You have talent and drive,” he said to Charlotte. “I'm sure you'll have a bright
future ahead of you.”
Charlotte thanked him before walking off the stage.
Hera watched the live broadcast on a television set backstage where she sat and gritted her teeth in anger.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHow could Charlotte have gotten such a high score? It was bad enough that Olivia scored higher than me, and now
Charlotte has as well? Does that mean I now rank third? Who knows if there are any other hidden talents amongst
the other competitors.
Feeling restless like she was sitting on pins and needles, Hera vented her discomfort by glaring resentfully at
Charlotte who appeared from the stage. How could a b*tch disfigured to the extent of having to hide her face from
the public obtain such a high score?
Her gaze was met by a warning look from Olivia.
Hera's eyes narrowed. What would a woman who Lochlan despised have to be proud of? She cast aside her dignity
of being a rich family's daughter to be Ashlyn's lackey! What an embarrassment to the Warhols.

Her anger festered the more she thought about it until eventually, Hera was so angry that she was forced to keep
her eyes fixed on the screen as a distraction.
She was in a daze upon the completion of the final contestant's performance.
I didn't even get bronze? Is this some kind of sick joke?
When all the contestants were asked to gather on the stage, Charlotte stood in the second row with Hera in the
third. The latter happened to be standing directly behind the former.
The host expressed how successful the finals were with a series of flattering words before thanking the audience
and judges present.
After building the necessary suspense in the crowd, he asked Caleb to announce the second runner-up, who was an
amateur pianist from Maredania. The man was beside himself with excitement as he stepped forward.
Next came the runner-up. Olivia was stunned to hear Caleb announce her name.
How could I be chosen out of so many other talented contestants?
Recovering from the shock quickly, she stepped out and stood beside the second runner-up.
“Finally,” Caleb announced sonorously against the pin-dropping silence of the theater, “let's give a big hand to our
champion, Charlotte Lynch!”
Suddenly, a loud bang sounded from the orderly line of contestants.
The crowd saw to their shock Charlotte slumping down to the ground in a very awkward and undignified pose.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHer slender body trembled slightly as she got up from the ground before quickly walking toward Olivia.
Charlotte worked hard to contain her embarrassment and anger as she walked. Just a moment ago, when she was
about to step out when her name was called, Hera had tripped her from behind.
A lapse of vigilance on her part had allowed Hera to embarrass her in public.
Hera, on the other hand, had blatantly carried out her act of sabotage as she expected Charlotte to know better
than to lose her composure in her moment of glory.
If Charlotte had lost her temper and called out Hera for tripping her, Hera's stubborn denial would only lead to an
ugly fight.
Taking the stage to claim my championship is an important juncture in my life. I need to be prudent with how I
conduct myself.
By the time she arrived at Olivia's side and took her position in the middle, Charlotte had already regained her
composure.
On her left was the runner-up, Olivia, and on her right was the second runner-up.
The host was trying to defuse the embarrassment of the situation. “Our champion may have been so excited at the
news that she fell over.”
