Revenge On Love Rats After Rebirth by Olivia Marsh novel Chapter 426

The group turned their heads subconsciously and then a wave of screams erupted on the scene.
"Oh my god. Adeline Watts."
"Adeline Watts? The first lady of M City, the overall champion of the previous year's perfume competition?"
"Right! It's her! I didn't expect even she would come. Is this a sign that she's preparing to defend her championship?"
Seeing Adeline, even the expressions of Mandy and Leah showed a hint of unease. However, when they saw Adeline specifically targeting Selena, the two women couldn't help but feel a little schadenfreude.
They cannot shake Selena's position, but M City is Adeline's home turf. Selena's words just now were equivalent to offending Adeline.
Adeline is the most proud and arrogant person. She will definitely not let her go easily.
All of the perfumers on the scene had a look of amusement on their faces as if they were watching a show.
Adeline stopped in front of Selena, her gaze sliding over the beautiful face on the other side. Her eyes flickered as she spoke, "The threshold for the domestic fragrance competition is really getting lower and lower. Anyone and everyone can participate."
This statement is already clearly accusing Selena of being ungrateful.
Her fans were emotionally aroused and immediately began to despise and ridicule Selena from all sides.
"A newcomer who has never appeared in the fragrance world actually said as soon as he opened his mouth that he came to win the championship. I'm afraid it will make everyone laugh out loud."
"It is indeed ridiculous. Even those who have won championships or second places dare not say such things. She is a newcomer with no reputation in the fragrance industry, and she just got off the car and claimed that she came to win the championship trophy. It's simply shameless!"
"Adeline was the champion of the previous season, and the champion of this season will certainly be hers. Some people just can't recognize their own strength and status, so they dare to be so arrogant, after all... ignorance!"
Those fans, at the beginning, saw Selena's elegant and noble appearance, and thought she was a princess or queen from some country, so they dared not approach her.
After realizing that Selena was just an ordinary perfumer, she naturally lost her fear and began to clamor, helping Adeline to taunt and accuse Selena.
Selena's eyes were cold and apathetic as she glanced at Adeline with her black eyes. "Miss Watts, you have misunderstood."
Adeline smirked smugly, "So, are you going to apologize to me?"
Selena curved her lips into a smile and said, "I didn't mean to say that the fragrance industry has no talented people."
She looked directly at Adeline's cold, mocking face, lightly chuckled, and her tone didn't reveal any arrogance, but inexplicably gave people a very convincing feeling.
"But up until now, every perfume designer who has been present cannot compare to me."
Adeline's face suddenly turned cold, "You are neither a champion nor a runner-up, and you haven't even made it to the finals. What qualifies you to say such things?"
She coldly sneered, disdainfully glanced at Selena's beautiful face, and casually dropped a bombshell, "Can you cheat the judges again with just your looks?"
As soon as these words were said, everyone present was stunned.
Leah's face was twisted into a smirk of malevolent amusement.
The four perfumers from Olympus Group felt ashamed and took several steps back, fearing that they might be implicated in Selena's scandal.
Selena casually lifted her thin eyelids.
Adeline sneered, "Leah is your sister and she's so famous in the fragrance world. Do you think you can keep your little secret for long?"
She looked at Selena with contempt and sneered, "If I were you, I would never have the face to show up in this competition again. When it comes to shamelessness, no one can compare to you."
Selena's eyes quietly raised a hint of dark hostility.
The fans on site exploded as soon as they realized the meaning behind Adeline's words.
"Oh my god! Tempting the judges to cheat? Is it true or false?"
Can the words spoken by the top socialite of M City be fake? No wonder she has such confidence despite lacking actual ability. It turns out she's involved in this kind of shady dealings... It's such a waste of her good looks!
"Disgusting! Since she already had a criminal record, why was she allowed to participate in the fragrance competition? What is the organizer doing? Don't they investigate beforehand?"
It's an insult to all the perfumers present to compete with someone of such low moral character. Miss Watts and the others, why don't you jointly write to the organizer to cancel her qualification for the competition?
For a moment, fans on the scene were incensed and felt sorry for their idol, with voices of cursing Selena heard everywhere.
Adeline gave a haughty smile and looked at Selena with contempt and pride in her eyes. "So, what will it be? Will you leave on your own, or do I have to spend some effort to throw you out?"
Leah tightened her fingers when she heard Adeline's words.
The four perfumers at Olympus Group also had a faint hope in their eyes that if Selena could be eliminated from the competition, they would no longer have to worry about being implicated by her.
Selena's eyes were cold and about to speak, when suddenly a chilly voice broke into everyone's ears, interrupting the tense atmosphere on the scene unexpectedly.
"Have you had enough?"
The crowd on site was stunned for a moment, and instinctively turned to look towards the source of the sound. Then, they suddenly froze in place.
Behind Adeline, a young man appeared out of nowhere, and she didn't know when he had arrived.
He was wearing a simple shirt and trousers, with a coat draped over his arm. He had an excellent physique and a face that even men would marvel at.
Even standing in the crowd under the morning sun, there is a chilling air of a snowy day pervading around the body.
Once the eyes of a person fall on him, it is difficult to shift their gaze away.
"Patrick Turner..."
"Oh my god, what day is it this year? The War of the Gods? Why have all the champions and runners-up from the past few years gathered together? My hands are shaking with excitement..."
Even Leah and Mandy, who have been closely following Selena, couldn't help but have a slight change in their confident expressions when they saw this man.
Obviously, compared to Adeline, the threat of this man is greater to them.
Adeline was taken aback and the pride on her face faded slightly. She strolled towards the man and said, "Mr. Turner, you're here. Why didn't you let me know?"
Patrick ignored her, with a hint of light mist lingering in his eyes. His gaze fell on Selena's face, revealing a touch of deep and mysterious exploration.
Adeline saw him looking at Selena and thought he found her annoying, after all, this guy was notoriously neat. She said, "You don't have to pay attention to her. Later, I'll go find the organizers and she won't have a chance to enter the arena with us."
Patrick glanced at her and said, "She is right."
Adeline was taken aback and didn't understand his meaning.
Patrick spoke in a cold tone...
