NovelEnglishHowell wrapped up the task Flora had given him and headed out of the competition venue.
Flora, looking totally at ease, rested her head on Connor's shoulder, fiddling with her phone with one hand. Earlier, when Kaylee had just finished her design draft, she had sent it to Flora for feedback. Flora had suggested adding two patterns, which turned out to be a game-changer.
Kaylee won the championship, just as everyone expected. She stepped up to give her acceptance speech.

Every tI hit a roadblock, she was there like an angel, helpingthrough..." "...The luckiest thing in my life is becoming friends with her." By the end of her speech, Kaylee was so choked up she could barely speak. In the audience, Flora watched Kaylee, who was now a mess of tears, and clicked her tongue.
"Oh, con. Why the waterworks? Crying on camera, how embarrassing." After Kaylee's emotional speech, there was a group photo session, signaling the end of the competition. The audience began to leave in an orderly fashion.
"Flora!" Kaylee, clutching her trophy, made her way to Flora. Her eyes were still puffy from crying, but her face was glowing with excitement and joy.
"I won the championship!" "Uh-huh," Flora replied casually.

But mark my words, you'll win so many awards in the future, you won't know what to do with them." Taking the trophy from Kaylee, Flora added, "I sent Howell's contact to you. Once you're done here, add him. He'll set you up to report to the Rose team." The Rose team?! Kaylee was floored, a mix of shock and elation flooding her senses, followed by a tinge of nervousness.

You have the talent, you just need tand experience. Once you're there, ask questions, learn as much as you can. Don't be shy, got it?" "Got it! I'll work really hard!" Kaylee nodded vigorously.
She was determined not to let Flora down! "Flora, hang tight for a bit. I'll talk to our coach, and then I'll take you out for dinner!" With that, Kaylee rushed backstage.
The team coach was already waiting for her. When she arrived, the other participants from the University of Maple Grove greeted her warmly, their attitudes even a bit sycophantic.
Kaylee flashed a polite smile. "Coach, I'll head back to the university on my own later. I want to have dinner with E my friend first."
"We were planning a celebration dinner for you. Why don't you invite your friend toyoin us?" suggested a senior from her third year. Like RICH WOMEN? These women desperately want a mature men! JOIN NOW "Waming* these rich women will persue you.
