Chapter 654


    Princess Matilda looked puzzled, but agreed and got up from her seat. The judges looked equally


    confused as they followed Matilda and Chloe out of thepetition


    venue


    The crowd was still dense outside. Keira had been waiting outside because she was anxious about


    Chloe’s performance. Most people were there because they knew Princess Matilda was present


    and hade to see her. Upon hearing that thestpetitor standing was a woman named


    Chloe, they started to be curious about her


    “Keira, what do you think Chloe is up to? She knows there’s probably no hope, but she keeps on


    going…”


    Annarie frowned Even as she said this, she felt a bit uneasy. After spending three years with Chloe,


    she knew her resilience all too well.


    Keira was torn. On one hand, she wanted Chloe to advance. On the other hand, she wanted her to


    be eliminated.


    “Don’t say that! Chloe’s strength is pulling through tough situations. You might think there’s no hope


    now, but to her, it might not be a problem at all…”


    Annarie grimaced, “Without the essential oils, how is she going to advance?”


    Keira smirked, giving her a side nce. “Are all the essential oils gone?”


    Annarie frowned, “There are some left, but as you’ve seen, most people chose to withdraw from the


    later rounds. This implies that the usable essential oils are really scarce. For someone who has no


    talent, she’s just struggling.”


    There were many who shared Annarie’s sentiment. Sincest night, they had been dissatisfied with


    Chloe. Now that she was thest one to finish thepetition, they didn’t think much of her.


    But then, the curtains of thepetition venue were suddenly drawn open. Chloe walked out, hand


    in hand with Princess Matilda. They descended the steps under the surprised gaze of the crowd,


    and headed straight for a field of purplevender not far away.


    A few judges followed them.

    Keira furrowed her brows in confusion, stepping forward to ask one of the judges, “Nigel, what’s


    going on?”


    The judge named Nigel shook his head. “We’re not sure either. Let’s go see, maybe we’ll


    understand.”


    Keira nodded. The audience also followed Chloe and Princess Matilda.


    In the end, Chloe led Princess Matilda to the purple field ofvender. Matilda looked at her, still


    puzzled. She shrugged, shook her head, and said helplessly, “You seem very clever, I really want to


    know what you’re thinking.”


    Chloe raised an eyebrow, speaking in fluent French, “Is your throat still bothering you?”


    Princess Matilda blinked, touched her throat with her gloved hand, and then looked surprised.


    “Oh my, it’s much better. Come to think of it, I haven’t coughed since earlier.”


    Chloeughed lightly, just as she had anticipated.


    Chloe chuckled
