However, not everyone would lick her boots."The way I see it, the beautiful triplets on stage looked really competent. You'll never know who's the dark horse."That person was referring to Alex, Ben, and Claudia.The wealthy woman immediately looked disdainful as she sneered, "This is a calligraphy contest, not a beauty pageant. What's so good about looking pretty? Don't just be a pretty and useless shell."Molly laughed as she thought, 'How pretentious and narcissistic must one be to say such a thing?'She did not put the wealthy woman's words at heart, but Sean frowned.The competition ended and the results would be announced in an hour. The emcee had already started to announce the winners of the competition, and the wealthy woman looked as prideful as ever. It was as if her "average" son had already won the competition."The winner of this competition is Claudia May, and the runners-up are Ben May, followed by Alex May. These kids have a bright future ahead of them…" After
Molly was mad at the accusation that came out of nowhere!"How could you say something like that? I'm going to sue you for defamation if you can't show any evidence to back up what you just said!" She stood tall and upright in front of the wealthy woman, looking furious and cold, and the wealthy woman took a step back instinctively.They confronted each other and things escalated quickly, which also attracted the staff and parents who were standing in the front, including some reporters too.Mr. Brown, who was mentioned by the wealthy woman was there too.He came over immediately right after he heard that his student's parent was causing a scene.As soon as the wealthy woman saw him, she grabbed him and made him stand in front of Molly before she yelled, "I think somebody is cheating in this competition!"Then, she pointed at the person standing beside her. Her expression changed as she proudly and arrogantly said, "Do you know who this is? He's a famous calligrapher in Norlon, M
His words were very straightforward. He directly exposed Ms. Lawson and that woman's evil deeds.'Cheating?'Arden was shocked, and he felt like he was choking on something.He was so overwhelmed by his emotions that he did not know if he was angry or disgusted!Arden liked the triplets very much. He felt extremely happy when they got first, second, and third place respectively. He was bragging about it to his friends, and his friends were very jealous of him!However, he encountered something like this all of a sudden and it just had to happen at the worst possible time.Mr. Forbes got furious as he approached Rederick and the rich woman to question them. "What's wrong? Are you saying that my students are not good enough to win?"Everybody was stunned by what he said.Arden Forbes was a very influential person.He was so famous in the calligraphy field that Rederick could never be compared to him.There were countless people that wanted to learn from Arden. Unfortunately, ev
Rederick bowed to them in front of Arden to express his apologies.The rich woman panicked. She followed behind Rederick and apologized to the triplets. "I'm so sorry. I'm such an ignorant person. I should've never accused you."Then, the staff from the competition came forward to make a clarification, "The competition is fair and equitable. The calligraphy of the three winners was exceptional, and they deserve to win more than all the other participants! There are no signs of cheating at all!"Also, all their calligraphy works will be published to the public a while later, and you can judge them for yourself! So, we hope that this lady over here would be responsible for what she just said."The staff threw shade at the rich woman without holding back.How could she accuse the triplets of cheating?She even tried to tarnish the organizer's name after accusing the triplets just because her child was not good enough to win. The organizer had enough of her.Everybody would know the
Molly panicked for a moment, then she pretended to be fine. "Mr. Forbes, please don't make fun of us," she said.She glanced at Sean after she said that. Their eyes met and her heart started to beat faster again.The atmosphere in the car felt strangely flirtatious.They took Arden home first. He got off the car quickly as he was going to have a discussion with his friend at home. He just could not let those amoral people stay in the calligraphy scene.He was named Mr. Calligraphy, and he took his virtues and ethics as a calligrapher very seriously!What they did was simply insulting to calligraphy!Molly, Sean, and the triplets only went home after that.Brycen was waiting for their return. He felt very proud because the triplets won.Even Sawyer had a favorable look on his face. He knew that the triplets were smart, but he did not expect them to be so outstanding."Uncle, an aunty said that we cheated! We got really angry!" Ben said while pouting."Tell me more about it!" B
Ricky knew that Sean would have a problem with this. He reminded Sean sternly, "Business is business. I guess you probably know that I'm very optimistic about this project. I need you to work with the Newman family."The project can be worth more than a hundred billion if everything goes well! The Newman Group alone will never be able to manage such a huge project. I'm sure that they'll look for partners. The Newman family is organizing a banquet tonight. Let's go there to check things out."Ricky was very confident in that project. After all, the Anderson Cooperation was the richest enterprise in the entire Northfolk.Sean was still very cold as he said, "I'll work with them based on the situation."He could not make sure that he can help Ricky even if things went wrong during this time.Ricky stood up while holding his knees. He took the proposal back from Sean before walking back to his desk. "Okay, carry on with your work, then. I'll talk to you again at night.""Sure." Sean
Sean took his compliments without overreacting as he coldly replied, "You're too kind."Ms. Sharon is not bad too. I heard that she participated in this project too." He said to Mr. Newman politely.Mr. Newman said again after they exchanged pleasantries. "Sharon, you've got to make sure that Sean feels comfortable here." Then, he turned to Sean and said, "You can ask Sharon to tell you more about the details of the project.""I should go talk to your father now." Mr. Newman went in Ricky's direction after he said that.Sean could tell that they did this on purpose to make him spend some alone time with Sharon.He could not very well refuse to do that because they were in a public place, after all. So, he let them walk away, leaving Sharon alone with him.He closed his eyes for a second as he felt a slight headache, but he recollected himself very soon after. He stopped overthinking, and he was ready to roll with the punches.However, Sharon did not feel anything odd as she aske
Sean noticed that, and he swept his glance across his surroundings. He felt uncomfortable and thought that it was getting a little too noisy. So, when he saw other people approaching Sharon, he said to her flatly, "Ms. Newman, I'll leave now since you're getting busy."Sharon was surrounded by people that were trying to please her. All of them pretended to be very close to her with a smile on their faces. She could not reject them, and it was hard for her to entertain all of them. So, she could only look at Tony pushing Sean away helplessly.Suddenly, she fell into a bad mood.'These people ruined my plan! They're so annoying!'The banquet was crowded. Sean went past a lot of people after he left Sharon. Tony only stopped pushing him when they were beside Ricky."Dad, I've briefly talked to Ms. Newman. She's a little busy right now. I'll take my leave if there's nothing else." Sean said to the man, who was standing tall and upright.Mr. Newman looked at him and asked, "Are you go
