Chapter 425

"Mr. Olson sure hit the jackpot with a stunner and a whiz like Ms. Keira as his fiancée! You must've heard about Ms. Keira's latest masterpiece, Enchanted Devotion, that's made it into the Fragrance Frenzy International Contest. Any thoughts?"

Keira blushed while Lance just smiled, his voice gentle,

"I get her. She had my heart fluttering ages ago. As for what I want to say..."

Lance paused for a bit then chuckled lightly. "Let's keep that under wraps for now

"Oh, looks like a proposal is brewing"

"It's bound to be super romantic, can't wait!"

"Finally you two are taking the plunge. All the best!"

Keira seemed both surprised and thrilled. Seeing Lance not denying anything, she was over the moon. Chloe was grilled by the reporters too, but she only answered a few easy questions and then zipped up. The buzz around Keira only grew, especially with the rumor that Lance was going to pop the question.

Chloe just flashed a faint smile, picked up her suitcase, and walked away

The host then announced the shortlisted names as per the program, wrapping up the local round of the contest.

In the backstage restroom, Chloe was washing her hands. Keira was already waiting for her

'Did you move back home just to mess with me?" Keira snapped at Chloe, her voice low and bitter.

Chloe kept washing her hands as if she hadn't heard her, "Mess with you? If you were a bit more slick, how could anyone mess with you?" Chloe dried her hands, turned around, and smirked at Keira,

'I can't believe you're pulling the same stunt. You just want me to repeat the same mistake and then you can knock me out, right?" Keira clenched her teeth, silent

Chloe was calmly drying her already clean fingers, her face cold.

"I know you'd seize every chance to sabotage me, especially at such a crucial time. Thanks to your constant meddling over the years, I know you pretty well now. There are only so many ways to do harm. If I'm to fend you off, I have to be ready. But to be honest, I'm fed up since there's no surprise. Every time, your tricks are all within my expectations! You always walk right into my trap, like we've rehearsed it beforehand. It's just too perfect. Maybe you're not a good actress for others, but for me. Hey, Keira, you're so spot-on every time, I can't help but want to give you a best actress award" Chloe said. Chloe couldn't help but laugh in the end, casually tossed the paper towel into the bin, and gave Keira a mocking glance.

Keira was furious, panting with rage. She was staring at Chloe, looking like she was about to pounce and bite her in any second.

"If you've already guessed I'd do the same thing as six years ago, stealing your recipe for the contest and framing you for plagiarism, why didn't you expose me?!" She said.
