My Dreamy Old Husband novel Chapter 346

The host announced the names of the top three winners. “The third runner up of the Miss Misty Pageant is No. 6, Molly Larson!”

In an excited manner, Molly went up to the stage to accept her award.

There was almost no doubt as to the names of the champion and the second runner up. Everyone was counting on getting the third place, but since Molly got it, the others were not looking forward to the prizes anymore.

However, Natasha was still listening to the host carefully.

“The second runner up for the Miss Misty Pageant is Natasha Mitchell!”

Upon hearing that, Natasha’s whole body quivered. The self-confidence she had always possessed had suddenly fallen to the ground and smashed into pieces. Her mind went blank for a moment.

There was thunderous applause coming from the crowd. Now that the second runner up had been disclosed, there was no surprise as to who would be the champion tonight.

“The champion of the Miss Misty Pageant is Sophia Edwards! Please come on stage, Misses Misty. Our guests will be presenting the awards!”

Molly and Sophia made their way up to the stage delightedly before standing in the middle of the stage and waving to the audience as a sign of appreciation. Natasha was the last one to come on stage. She put up an elegant smile, looking untarnished while the blazing spotlight concealed the darkness within her eyes.

The champion was standing in the center with the second and third runner up by her side. The guests were none other than the two idols and the chancellor of Bayside University.

 

Naturally, it was Michael who presented the champion’s trophy. Holding the hefty Miss Misty trophy, Michael moved toward Sophia and handed her the trophy with both hands. While doing so, he complimented gently, “Congratulations.”

When Sophia received the trophy from her idol, half of her face was still bulging. Not knowing whether it was because of the agony of the injury or the outrage of emotion, the moment Sophia raised her head, tears slid down from the corner of her eyes again, and she choked. “Thank you, senior.”

 

Michael felt his heart aching as he looked at Sophia’s pitiful appearance. Letting out a chuckle, he stretched out his arms and said, “Come on. Let me give you a hug.”

In the midst of the screams coming from the fans, Sophia and Michael held onto each other for a while.

Sophia was definitely the main attention of the audience right now. But Natasha, who had fallen into the background, was not pleased, and one could see it from her eyes. She clenched her delicate fingers in order to restrain herself while holding up her graceful smile nonetheless.

After Michael’s hug with Sophia, Harry was placed in an awkward position.

When it was his turn to pass Natasha the trophy for the second runner up, he would have to hug her too. Or else, the hug Michael had just given would seem suspicious in the eyes of the public.

Resisting the unwillingness in his heart, Harry gave Natasha a hug.

The chancellor also did the same thing and hugged Molly.

A deafening applause came from the audience. The school administration was finally able to sigh in relief. This was definitely the most thrilling Miss Misty Pageant Bayside University 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 university carried on with the Miss Misty Pageant.

However, the performances this time had really left everyone in awe—the rap performance by Sophia was absolutely an interesting one.

Nevertheless, this was not the first time the university had come across such a sensational educational performance.

Twenty years ago, during the Mister Misty Pageant, a student had composed Pi into a symphony piece. He formed a huge orchestra team and performed for almost ten minutes. If it were not for the time requirement, he could have played it for three days and three nights.

That student was Cooper Mitchell.
