Sweet Divorce novel Chapter 52

‘The winner of the design competition is Brown... Rita Brown!!!’ His proud smile suddenly froze, and his brain was blank. He did a double take.

"Duke?" "Duke." It was only when Rita’s voice was heard again that he suddenly regained his mind. Then he ran into Rita’s smiling eyes.

"Duke, please call me when you are live." “!” His heart did a flip and his face took on a ghastly expression.

Seeing her beautiful smile, his irritated eyes were red and he roared, "No, it's impossible, it's impossible! The host must have misread the name. Yes, the host must have misread the name!"

"Yes, yes, the host must have it misread." Even the tutor on one side also just caught on, repeatedly saying. Charlotte, who did not spoke all the time, looking at the host hopefully. At the moment, her whole body tensed.

For a moment, there seemed to be no sound around. Her eyes were fixed on the host. “It’s the wrong name. It must be the wrong name! How can the cripple be number one! No Way!’

“Rita Brown, please come on stage to deliver a speech!” Just at this time, the host smiled and read her name again. Charlotte looked pale.

‘How could this be! Rita cannot be number one! What about herself? Is she even not on the list? That’s impossible. There must be some mistake.’

At this time, all the lights dimmed down. The spotlight was shining on Rita’s seat. All of a sudden, the people around them looked sideways. Rita suddenly became the focus of the crowd.

"Wow, this designer is not only talented, but also beautiful!" Someone murmured under the stage. And then everyone nodded in agreement.

Except those beside her kept silent, almost everyone cast envious and curious eyes. Rita got up slowly and walked to the stage amidst the gazes of the crowd.

When she passed Charlotte, she stopped suddenly. Turning to see Charlotte on the seat, she reached for her forehead and said, "Not hot... Charlotte, what's the matter with you? Why do you look so pale? "

"Charlotte, do you want to go to the hospital?" Rita blinked and continued to ask. Because of her inquiry, people all looked her way.

Though she wanted to ignore Rita, in order to maintain the public image, she could only suppress her crazy jealousy and force a smile. "I’m OK, I’m OK."

"Oh." Rita said coolly. She bent over and hugged the hypocritical person, whispering, "Charlotte, you're right. Read as much as you have time. I didn't expect that after listening to you, I won the first place! Charlotte, thank you!”

Just then, Rita obviously felt that Charlotte was froze for a moment. ‘At the thought of her suggestion of not falling behind the class, Charlotte now must regret.’ Rita felt great.

Rita gave a bright smile and walked to the stage without looking back. Starting today, the Browns would change! It was time to change hands! At that moment, Rita looked confident and determined.

The high-heeled shoes on the ground made a clear sound. Every step Rita took to the stage was like stepping on Charlotte’s heart, which made her shiver uncontrollably. ‘No! No way!’ She couldn't let Rita win the prize.

"Now let's invite Liam Wilson, the president of the Wilson group, to present a prize to Rita Brown." Charlotte was wondering how could stop Rita to get the prize. Hearing this, her eyes sparkled. ‘Liam, you are here at the right time.’

Charlotte glanced at Duke, and then created a build-up. Then, she collapsed in her seat. "Sorry, I failed to live up to your expectation." With that, she turned to see the tutor beside Duke, becoming tearful.
