Chapter 38 She’s the Champion!

• Despite the situation, Keira felt an inexplicable feeling after hearing the news. Sure, I might have won, and the results might have been slightly surprising, but I’m sure that this isn’t an unspoken rule, is it?! I guess I’m just lucky. That’s right. I didn’t know that the person was Leon, and I didn’t tell him anything about this competition! So, why are they talking about unspoken rules right now? He was the one who gave me those marks, and it has got nothing to do with me—this shouldn’t be termed as an unspoken rule!
• Upon processing her thoughts, Keira felt her tensed facial muscles relaxing before she parted her lips to give everyone a tight smile. The whole crowd began to cheer and clap for her victory once more! During the award, the president of Pearl Hotel, Leon, personally presented Keira with a check worth a hefty amount of one million. “Your performance was stunning, Miss Whitlaw. Keep up the good work!”
• “Thank you.” Keira got another chance to speak to him in close proximity, but she no longer felt the same way she did in the past. With Leon being one of the stars in the culinary industry and one of the idols Keira admired, she felt oddly close and connected to him.
