Chapter 656
Amanda’s eyes were red as she said in het SWCei voice, “You worked hard in your ballet classes. but I worked hard in my dancing classes too. If you feel that it was unfair, then let’s change it up. The person in charge of the music can play the piano for me, and the handsome man here can play for you. Is that all right?”
The girl wiped away her cars and nodded. The rest of the crowd also nodded in agreement at that.
Both girls played rock-paper-scissors, and it was decided that Amanda would be going first.
She put on her red hood and acted like she was Little Red Riding Hood. Amanda acted cute onc moment and whimsical the next. Everyone was laughing their hearts out as they watched her performance.
On the other hand, the girl danced to “Swan Lake.” Her moves were clegant, but they could never be compared to Amanda’s.
She was about to cry again when she found out that she had lost again.
At that, Amanda pouted and said, “We’re here to show off our talents. We can do whatever we want. There’s no rule saying that we have to dance. Don’t cry for small reasons like this. It’s embarrassing. I-If you really want first place, then I’ll give it to you.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe crowd felt outraged for her when they saw how big-hearted she was being.
One of them voiced, “Why should you give it to her? All of us saw that you performed better than her. Both times too!”
“That’s right. Competitions don’t work in your favor just because you cry. That’s not how it works.”
Soon enough, all the customers were in support of Amanda getting first place. Even the host gave her all of the prizes for first place.
He wanted to give the girl who did ballet the prizes for second place, but Lucian suddenly stated, “She’s good at ballet, but am I not good at magic?”
“We’re both boys here. Let her have it this time, okay?” Seeing that there were so many customers watching, the host didn’t want the girl to cry again.
Lucian shrugged and put on an aggrieved look on his face. Even the way he spoke sounded pitiful as he said, “I would have let her have it if I were fourteen. But I’m only four! She’s already seven. It should be the other way around.”
The crowd found what he said to be reasonable.
A second later, Lucian said generously. “Fine. I’ll let her have her way. We can split the prizes for second place.”
Thien, he walked toward the area where all the prizes were and asked for the Rubik’s cube from
the stati
The host was left dumbfounded by how the boy acted, but he quickly handed the girl the other prize and added a Disney plusli for her.
When Lucian was finally back at the table, Genevieve patce his head and said, “You did well. You protected your rights.”
When it came to competitions involving boys and girls, people would normally hope to see the boy’s giving girls the advantage Ilowever, it didn’t mean that the boys weren’t gentlemen if they refused to.
Everything should be fair in competitions. There shouldn’t be any situation where somconc had to give someone else an advantage.
Since Amanda had gotten first place, she received more than thirty prizes. Her arms had gotten sore from opening them up, but her favorite one out of everything was still the tiara. She couldn’t wait to put it on the moment she got it.
“Thank you. Uncle Cooper,” she said. She put her arms up and made a heart shape at Cooper.
Then, Amanda leaned over to Jack and kissed liim on his check. “Thank you for the blue diamond ring too! I like it very much!”
At the sight of this, Genevieve couldn’t help but feel that her daughter was a fair and just person even though she was so young.
The band continued to perform on stage, and the restaurant seemed to have gotten more lively as everyone ate their New Year’s Eve dinner with their families.
Having eaten the food at Golden Restaurant, Genevieve could finally put the feeling of confusion behind her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe speculated that Bruce had learned how to cook at the restaurant. Hence, the reason the food he made tasted so similar.
Nonetheless, she never noticed this previously
It was already ten at night when they were done with their dinner. Amanda was so excited to return home to play with fireworks. However, Cooper received a call at the last second, saying that he had to handle some things.
He drove to Imperial Club after bidding goodbye to Genevieve and the group.
Cooper was now one of the bosses of the club. Ile headed straight for the office upstairs and saw a figure situing on the couch the moment he pushed the door open.
The figure was scrolling on his phone. Though he had a dark look in his eyes, the slight smile he had on made him lose a little of his coldness.
A hint of warmth lingered in his eyes.
Cooper was stunned at the sight of the man. After closing the door behind him, he took off his coat and walked toward the couch. “You can’t appear in front of me so suddenly like that. I thought you’d climbed out of a coffin.”
