How a Dying Woman Rewrote Her Epilogue novel Chapter 560

The atmosphere spun out of control the instant Sylvie spoke up.

No one had expected it. In a competition this tightly regulated, the idea of demanding a complete re-evaluation was almost unthinkable.

Even Elodie turned her head in surprise.

Sylvie’s gaze was ice-cold, her face rigid with disbelief. No matter how she tried to rationalize it, she couldn't accept that Elodie had outscored her.

It was impossible. Unacceptable.

Alexander’s eyes moved to the massive screen at the front of the stadium.

This wasn’t your average remote-controlled toy. The drones in play were top-of-the-line, including some of the most advanced models the military had publicly released. Each one ran on its own unique system code, and every aspect of their performance was being tested in real time.

Jarrod, still lounging comfortably in his chair, shot a glance at Sylvie onstage before replying, “Then let’s do as she asks. Run the tests again.”

Maurice’s heart skipped. Was Jarrod really siding with Sylvie against his own wife? Or…
