In one fell swoop, Leah's hand reaching for the trophy was abruptly cut off.
Leah's smile instantly froze, her hand stopped just a few millimeters away from the second place trophy, and her whole body seemed to stiffen.
The host who was about to present her with the award was stunned for a moment, then looked surprised at Selena and caught her glinting eyes.
The host was startled and immediately took a step back, retracting the trophy that was already halfway out.
Selena spoke into the microphone, and everyone in the audience heard it, causing a huge shockwave.
"What does Selena mean by that?"
"She said the second place cannot be given to Leah, why?"
"Lady Selena must have her reasons for saying that, let's wait and see!"
"Damn, we've reached this point, and we can still have a big scoop. This year's fragrance competition is definitely the most tumultuous one..."
Dominic's just-relieved heart was lifted again, he looked at Selena with an unreasonable gaze.
Obviously, no one expected Selena to interrupt Leah's award presentation at the last moment.
She was already the champion, why couldn't she let Leah go?
Leah was frozen in place like a statue, and after a while, she slowly and stiffly turned her head to look at Selena, her tone of voice eerily gentle, "Selena, what do you mean by that?"
Selena lifted her chin, smiled, and said with a righteous tone, "I am questioning you. Can't you understand?"
"I am the champion and have the right to question anyone," Selena admired Leah's almost ferocious expression, and smiled with a teasing tone, "Of course, you can also question me in return. Everyone on this stage should be willing to accept all kinds of questioning!"
Leah clenched her fingers and smiled, her smile making people's backs chill, "Oh? Selena, you are questioning me about what? Is it because Mr. Ghost is biased towards you, and you have already won the championship, what else do you want?"
"Do you want to say that my perfume is not worthy of this second place? Or is there a problem with my work?"
Leah was obviously very angry, and couldn't even hold back her inner thoughts in public.
But her words were not without reason.
Mr. Ghost's favoritism and special treatment towards Selena were too obvious.
Moreover, unexpectedly, a large number of voices suddenly emerged from below, supporting and echoing her.
"That's right, Selena's and Leah's championship rivalry, there may be Mr. Ghost's favoritism towards her..."
"Others may not be able to tell that the yellow perfume bottle is Selena's, but someone as powerful as Mr. Ghost must have been able to see it. Perhaps, from the beginning, the championship had already been decided in advance!"
"Selena, how can you question Leah when your own championship trophy is obtained through questionable means?"
These voices sounded as if they had suddenly appeared, completely disregarding Selena and Ghost's terrifying popularity, shamelessly insinuating an improper relationship between the two.
Many of the viewers were so angry that their faces turned black and they couldn't help but curse back.
"Damn it! Where did these bunch of idiots come from!"
