Chapter 335
Beatrice didn’t dare to lift her head; she couldn’t bear to embarrass herself. She was always the one plotting against others. but today, she ended up being outsmarted herself.
And now, she didn’t even dare to cause trouble.
Dylan looked at his mother, barely recognizing the woman standing before him.
“I can’t believe my own mother would do something like this, he thought.
Last time, with Eliana, she bribed the judges, and now she actually dares to do it again.
As the competition ended, people started leaving one by one.
Nobody was surprised by what happened with Yvonne anymore; the looks she got were full of contempt, not a shred of sympathy.
Everyone here had made it to the finals on their own merits; just getting this far was already half the battle.
Yvonne had the talent, but she ended up tripping herself up. She was too clever for her own good.
“Serena!” Vivian hugged her trophy and threw herself into Serena’s arms.
Serena smiled and congratulated her. “Vivian, congratulations on winning the championship.”
“Thank you, Serena! I honestly didn’t expect to win, but I did! I’m so happy! My dad promised that if I won, he’d throw a celebration party tonight. You have to come with me, let’s celebrate together!” Vivian said, bouncing with excitement as she
ugged Serena.
Her makeup was on point, making her look even more gorgeous.
Alright, alright! I was gonna throw you a party myself, but if your dad’s hosting, let him have it. We’ll do another one next ime,” Serena laughed.
Vivian was always amazing. Ms. Hale was never stuck–up or hot–tempered, just kind and beautiful.
“Yay! And guess what? My brother’s home too!” Vivian said, her face lighting up with excitement.
Serena quickly stepped back, her smile turning a bit awkward.
Vivian blinked, then remembered what Serena had said before and chuckled. “Serena, stop worrying! I already fold are brother about you saying no. When you see him, just act like it never happened. He’s not the type to make things awkward you know him‘
Serena gave a fake smile. Alright”
I really hope I don’t run into Cannon Serena thought to herself.
“Come on, let’s go! My dad’s waiting for us at home Hebe su happy to are you” Vivian said, grabbing serena’s band
“Wait a sec/ Serena scooped up the bouquet of roses fran nearby. “These are your favorites, here you go,
Vivian flashed a sweet sinile. These are your favorites too you know but now that yintre voy absessed with tejmance anymore. I’m rooting for Dylan and his dream girl. Elians to be totally stuck together Maybe you shoulit give my brother a shot instead

Serena acted like she didn’t hear a word, holding her trophy tight as the two of them walked off, giggling and joking together.
Serena never once looked at Dylan the whole time.
Dylan just stood there, quietly watching her walk away, a silent ache in his chest.
So this is how happy she is when she’s with her friends, Dylan thought to himself.
Turns out, even if it’s not me, there are still plenty of amazing guys who want her, he mused, feeling a pang of regret.
Suddenly, Yvonne’s scream rang out from the entrance.
Dylan turned toward the doorway and rushed over.
