Compared to Tehilla's 'I'm already nineteen and I'm running out of time', it seemed like everyone preferred 'I'm only twenty one years old, so what if I was late?'After all, not everyone would have had the same reputation like Tehilla when they were nineteen!The live comment section exploded.'I'm twenty and l have decided to start dancing!''This lady is inspiring! She has just reignited my dream to work harder!''I'm 21 and I have decided not to waste my life anymore. I'm going to start studying medicine!''I'm already in my third year but I hate my current major. From now onward. I've decided to enroll in my second major!'"Oh my God! This app was actually designed by her who has only been into programming for a few months? This is so amazing. I support you!"On the app, Hilda's votes spiked like a rocket. In a blink of an eye, Tehilla was pushed down from her number one spot, but her fan base was very powerful. The moment they noticed that something went wrong, they immediately
The third round of the contest was about to begin by that point, most of the guests had left to catch some rest. The online audience was watching the live stream on the app where as the physical audience voted via the app. The number of users had already reached its historical peak, but suddenly, there was an alert bearing the message.'The first scandal of the competition: The belle has maliciously destroyed another contestant's dress and police has arrived on the scene to investigate!'Upon clicking into the news, one could find the high resolution photos being attached. The first photo was a CCTV image. A well dressed man and woman were sneaking in front of a lockbox. One was looking it out for the other and the other removed a dress from it.The second photo was the girl looking out for the other while he was cutting the dress.The third photo was the victim testifying and the police officers recording her testimony.The police officers, the victim and the culprits were confrontin
As Tehilla's votes went higher, Samuel felt like his face was blushing.Hilda, who was in the midst of preparing for the talent show backstage, had suddenly been notified that her turn had been pushed forward to No. 8, even though she was initially the last one to go onstage.Although she had no idea on what actually happened, she immediately prepared herself due to the change of circumstances.The following contestants appeared one after another behind Tehilla. Diana's classical dance and Shekinah's freestyle basketball were one of the spectacular performances of the day. Even though their votes had increased, they still couldn't keep up with Tehilla and Hilda, who were ranked at the top.After Shekinah's performance, the host announced the total votes for the previous round of competition and concurrently disclosed the marks given to the public speaking."Now," she announced. "The first place of public speaking goes to..."Pretending to be mysterious, the host took a glance around t
The live comments on the big screen had worked up the atmosphere in the hall.Most of the audience began to cheer, completely ignoring the fact that it was Hilda's turn to perform."Mr. Clemon, show us something!""Play it! Play it!"Instantly, Nathan waved his hand. "No way. I haven't touched this thing in ten years. If I were to do it now, I'm going to embarrass myself, like how Samuel did!"Upon hearing that, Samuel thought to himself, Hah! So you know that that was embarrassing! It was your fault, okay?But the fans didn't care about it. "Play it! Play it! Show us something!"At the request of the fans, Nathan spoke reluctantly, "Okay, fine. It's fate that I encountered this. Since this contestant will be performing a rap, I can make the beat for her."The fans began to hurrah enthusiastically.Rex switched his position with Nathan while mumbling his complaints. Heh, so he's going to take my job away, huh?Just take everything if you want! What's with the drama?What a drama king!
The music started as Nathan turned on the turntable. A very upbeat song was played. Although Nathan had not played the turntable in more than ten years, he still had the skills. The mixes he made were very contagious. The audience was already more worked up than what one would see in a nightclub. Hilda hadn't even started her performance yet!Everyone seemed to have forgotten that this was the stage of the Miss Misty Pageant, and the contestant, Hilda, had not yet started her performance.Nathan had not rehearsed the performance with them, but he only needed to grasp on to the tempo.Following the tempo given by Rex, he composed new music with his experienced technique. The professional aura surrounding him made him seem like an expert DJ.After the intro, Hilda saw Rex's signal from the side of the stage and knew that she should start her performance now.Holding her breath, Hilda caught up with Nathan's tempo and started her rap. "Yo, yo! Today's atmosphere is very exciting. Everyon
It seemed as if after Hilda's performance, every show that came up later appeared dull and boring. Hilda was standing firmly on the throne, leading the votes by thousands in front of Tehilla, and her votes were still rising like nuts.Nathan had deliberately adjusted Hilda's turn to the front to allow the audience some time to react. He wanted to make sure that the audience had the time to vote before the competition ended, or he would have played for nothing.At the backstage, Tehilla was sitting in a corner, checking on the online voting. The expression on her face was extremely gloomy.Did I just lose? By thousands of votes?This is not fair!This is so unfair! Someone must have been manipulating the online votes for Hilda secretly! My performance was flawless! Miss Misty belongs to me!So what if Hilda just recited the Pi? This is a talent show, not an academic conference! Her performance was nothing!On the other side of the stage, it was finally Carmen's turn to perform. But the
This huge change happened without any warning. No one had imagined that something like this would happen at the Miss Misty Pageant, so everyone was so shocked that they had forgotten how to speak for a while.The figure had restrained Daniel single handedly. It reached out another hand and caught Daniel's other hand like lightning.With a beautiful over the shoulder throw, Daniel was smashed onto the ground with a slam before a nice looking black leather shoe stretched out and kicked him on his waist. After sliding several meters along the flat surface of the stage, Daniel stopped right in front of the police officers.The police officers held down the dizzy Daniel in an instant.He had made a serious offence by destroying a dress worth 100,000, assaulting police officers, and even hitting others in public!Raising his head, the flustered Daniel looked at the figure and saw the star studded man in a fitted suit, wearing gold framed glasses. Due to the fight just now, his suit was slig
After Nathan's hug with Hilda, Samuel was placed in an awkward position. When it was his turn to pass Tehilla the trophy for the second runner up, he would have to hug her too. Or else, the hug Nathan had just given would seem suspicious in the eyes of the public.Resisting the unwillingness in his heart, Samuel gave Tehilla a hug.The president also did the same thing and hugged Shekinah.A deafening applause came from the audience. The administration was finally able to sigh in relief. This was definitely the most thrilling Miss Misty Pageant the institution had ever organized in its 300 years of history.The first thrilling event was the time when the competition was first established.Back then, the imperialists' aircrafts were flying all over the venue, and they would be dropping bombs at any time. Risking the possibility of being bombed, the institution carried on with the Miss Misty Pageant.However, the performances this time had really left everyone in awe. The rap performanc
Three months later, the five generations of the huge family were gathered happily together in Nathan's Villa of the Imperial. Old Master Clemon, who was still alive and kicking, held in his arms junior Klaus with a broad smile on his face, while Zis was also all smiles as he held the other junior Klaus. Nathan was staring at Klaus hostilely. "Mr. Klaus, pardon me, but I'll make sure to cut you up into pieces if you get any closer to my daughter!" He held a chilly gaze while asserting his presence. All of a sudden, there was a fierceness about him. However, Klaus only gave him a smirk. "Haha, I don't think you have any say in this, Mr. Clemon." On the contrary, Connie seemed to side with Klaus, as she began chiding Nathan. "You should keep your mouth shut! The kids know what they're doing!" Although Nathan seemed to have backed down, he was still glaring at Klaus. Without warning, Zis, who was the eldest of the in laws, put on a stern look on his face while lecturing Connie, "M
Just like that? Why does she sound so nonchalant about it? My daughter was only six years old when she slept with a twenty year old guy! As her mother, shouldn't she have stopped her? "Times have changed. Besides, the kids are all grown up now, so isn't it normal to have desires? Don't you worry, as I gave her detailed guidance beforehand, as well as showed her educational videos to teach her more about sex." Hilda explained. Nathan's face blanched, wanting to just faint once more. However, Hilda went on. "Linux even developed a condom that helps relieve the pain, as well as increase the pleasure one experiences during sexual intercourse. It will also alert the users if it detects a virus. Besides, Klaus did a checkup beforehand to ensure that he was clean." "I also told him to be careful so as to not hurt Luna before I agreed to let them have sex." There was a livid expression on Nathan's already pale face. Has the world undergone so much transformation during the past ten year
Justin stood in a corner in abjection before suddenly laughing in a self deprecating manner. He turned around to look for Anne, only to find her still actively trying to approach Luna in an attempt to strike up a conversation with her. Never in her wildest dreams had she expected the girl to be Luna Clemon, the daughter of a security guard whom she despised. After Klaus entered the venue, he didn't even spare a glance at the other ladies present for the occasion, save for Luna, the girl who was the center of attention. As the main protagonist who made her appearance after everybody else, the ball began after Luna showed up. She led the first dance with Giry, who moved in a coquettish manner throughout the entire dance due to how elated he was. After the first dance, some of the guests left the floor to get some rest, while others continued dancing after switching partners. Giry was forced to let go of Luna after that and wait for the next dance on the sidelines as he shouldn't be
There were a lot of prestigious people present for the occasion, including male guests who were members of royal families. Klaus Adams, whom Justin didn't manage to meet, would also be there, so he could seize the opportunity to connect to people of status. Luna won't be able to provide me with such an opportunity. He took a sip out of his wine to forget the feelings of bitterness within him while he admitted his defeat. I don't belong to Luna, nor is the opposite possible, as we belong to two different worlds. All of a sudden, there was a commotion in the hall as the hosts from Smith Group showed up. Jerome Bowen and Connie Frimpong were the ones to show up first, whereas Hilda Adams and Linux Jordan followed behind. They're here! The crowd moved in their direction with anticipation in their minds. The main protagonist will be here soon! The girl who has a net worth of hundreds of billions, as well as being the heir of prestigious families including the Damien Family, the Clemon
Anne also received an invitation to attend the ladies' ball, which was something that someone at the bottom of the social pyramid would never get to know and join in on, they practically lived in two different worlds. It wasn't until then that he knew how different they were. While Justin would never eat street food with Luna, her current boyfriend was willing to do so. Gritting his teeth, Justin left without a word, as if having made a decision. This time, he was finally able to leave her behind, even if they met each other again in the future, he would treat her like a stranger. There was a time when he used to want to spend his life with Luna, as he never met someone as intelligent and kind as her. Even if she was no better than other people, she was at least better than Anne in both regards. However, they could never get together. His family would never agree to the match due to the fact that Luna couldn't help his family climb the social ladder like how Anne could. It wasn't
A month later, the military training ended with Giry having bruises all over his face. On the other hand, both Luna and Klaus had a tan when they returned. They had also gotten to the stage of holding hands all the time with each other. As usual, Connie maintained her deathly glare when she met Klaus. She had arranged a group of people to join the military training, hoping that they could teach Klaus a lesson, but all of them wound up being intimidated by him. Geez! That bunch of cowards! Even Connie herself was beginning to acknowledge that she no longer stood a chance against Klaus by now, say less of anybody else. She was getting older, so it was time to hand things over to the next generation. Now, Klaus was the young, determined, and ambitious one, whereas Connie had aged, so she was no longer the former's opponent. Therefore, she could only watch as Klaus dated her granddaughter. After the military training, Luna's eighteenth birthday was approaching fast, which would mark
Jumping with joy, Luna latched herself to Yaa. "Marie! When did you arrive?" Yaa warmed up to Luna upon seeing the latter. "We'll be welcoming the freshers today. They seem to be a little disobedient! How dare a bunch of newbies be so arrogant?" The girls walked away while they chatted, but Yaa didn't speak with Klaus when they saw each other, as they both considered it sufficient as a greeting when they exchanged looks earlier. Therefore, Klaus pushed his bike while walking beside the girls as they spoke, all the while mentally exclaiming on how Yaa had bloomed into her true self by staying with the Cannons, that was where she truly belonged. Yaa was feared among the freshers. Furthermore, Justin Clark had his name called out directly by her earlier, so he almost burst into tears out of his intense fear for her. At that moment, Adwoa appeared out of nowhere to scare him. "Aha! You're done for! The general called for you! Justin, you should be prepared! The following month will b
The moment Connie's words were heard, Luna's reaction was the most intense. "Grandma, what do you mean by that? Why are you talking about him being worthy or otherwise? We're just friends!" Although we... we kissed the other time, neither of us ever brought that day up again. Therefore, they were still at the beautiful stage where things were fuzzy. Hence, Connie's proclamation burst the bubble, making the situation exceedingly awkward. Klaus, who was eating, stilled for a moment, but he said nothing. Upon seeing this, Connie was in seventh heaven. Finally, I've found his Achilles heel! Putting on her authoritative air as an elder, she loftily asserted, "My granddaughter will never marry a man who doesn't even have a high school diploma." All at once, the atmosphere turned awkward, and Luna's face flushed bright red from mortification. At this time, Hilda hurriedly smoothed things over, exclaiming, "What are you saying, mom? What's this about marrying and all?" She should at last l
The old son in law was indeed zealous, for he brought back gifts for everyone, including Jerome, Connie, and Luna's uncles. Despite Connie's staring match with Klaus earlier, she hugged her gift to her chest, reluctant to put it down for even a second. Klaus's gift to her was a handwritten score from her favorite pianist back when she was young, so she truly loved it. Meanwhile, Adwoa got a set of Western European non mainstream fashionable clothes, and she seemed besotted as well. Klaus even had gifts for Luna's friends, including Giry, Dean, and the others. He distributed the gifts one by one. At the end of it, he took out a tiny gift and waved a beckoning hand toward the back of the house. "Kater!" Woof! A husky scampered out in a mad flurry. Then, Klaus unwrapped the gift to reveal an adorable ball. Gratified, Kater left with it in its mouth. "Tangerine! Orange! Lemon! Gordon! Goldstein!" Upon hearing their names, the few orange cats padded over, meowing all the way. Klaus
