Chapter 1151
Brian said, “Let’s see how long you can keep up this act.”
Regardless of how long she could keep it up, or whether she would win, Cornelia always reminded herself to keep
her cool and that the first round was
crucial.
Once they were all set, the referee shouted, “Begin!”
With the sound of a gunshot, Cornelia’s bullet accurately hit the bullseye.
The three Duran brothers in the stands couldn’t quite believe their eyes; they hadn’t expected Cornelia to be more
than just talk. Turned out, she really could shoot. But no worries, there were ten rounds in total and it was only the
first one. They had to see how she performed in the coming rounds.

shooting position.
He lifted his hand, took a step, and off flew his bullet.
The next second, gasps filled the audience, “He’s amazing!”
Turned out his bullet landed exactly where Cornelia had just hit, right in the bullseye.
“Nelly, how do you think my shooting skills compare to yours?” He turned around, looking at Cornelia provocatively,
“You still have the chance to back out before the match ends.”
Cornelia tried to stay focused, continuing to aim her gun. Perhaps her concentration was too intense or she was too
tense; when she pulled the trigger, she made a mistake. Her hand trembled slightly and the bullet hit the outer ring
of the target.
With such a big mistake, it would be very difficult for Cornelia to beat Brian now. Only if Brian made a similar
mistake, could they possibly close the gap,
Wyatt in the audience said, “Knew she just got lucky.”
Alexa replied, “Don’t jump to conclusions so soon.
Emily added, “Shush, let’s see how Brian handles it.”
Brian slowly circled around Cornelia, “If I score just one point more than you, you’re finished.”
Cornelia couldn’t help but roll her eyes, “Why do you talk so much? Can you just shoot already and not waste
everyone’s time?”
“I was just trying to delay your defeat, but if you insist, I won’t hold back. As soon as he finished speaking, Brian
pulled the trigger and the bullet flew out. His bullet once again landed exactly where Cornelia had hit, incredibly
accurate. Seeing how perfectly he could control the bullets, Cornelia had to admit, she’d run into his strong suit.
She knew there was no possible way she could win through a normal match.

Brian said, “I’ll give you one last chance. If you admit defeat now, I’ll stop competing with you.”
Cornelia replied, “I told you I won’t back down. If you want to back out, I won’t force you to apologize to me.”
Brian retorted, “What’s the point of you saying that?”.
Cornelia replied, “It’s not over till it’s over. Who knows who’ll win in the end?”
Brian said, “Alright, let’s wait for the results then.”
“Do you think I’m scared of you?” After being with Marcus for so long, the most important thing Cornelia learnt
from him was to keep her cool no matter how difficult the situation.
Brian continued, “Defeating you would be a piece of cake. But I don’t want to defeat you right away; I want to play
a game of cat and mouse.”
When a cat caught a mouse, it seldom ate it right away. Usually, the cat would play with the mouse for a while
before ending the game. Now, Brian was comparing himself to the cat and Cornelia was the mouse in his palm.
Cornelia just smiled, ignoring him, and focused on her own business.
