RedNovelChapter 145 Chapter 145: The entire group headed to the auditorium without delay. The bustling auditorium, alive with the spirited energy of a debate competition, was packed with students.
In an abrupt turn, the debate teams were ushered off, and Freddy escorted Casey to the stage.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs the head of the Astro Research Center and a pioneer in cancer research, Freddy was a distinguished scientist whose authority matched that of the university's elite, like Daryl. Securing the entire auditorium was a trivial task for him. The air in the auditorium hummed with intrigue as people leaned forward, eager to discover what was unfolding.
A figure of undeniable presence strode onto the stage. Though the spotlight didn't shine on her, her commanding aura captured everyone's attention.
In an instant, the chattering of the crowd ceased, and the room was filled with a heavy silence, all eyes drawn to Khloe. Khloe moved onto the stage with unshakable composure, as though no challenge or gaze could disturb her.
She'd faced far more intense and grueling challenges in her life. By comparison, this was child's play.
On the other hand, Casey, still reeling from her defeat, looked even more defeated as she stepped onto the stage before a thousand eyes, unable to lift her gaze.
A chair with a sturdy backrest was brought for Khloe, who sat down with a casual air, crossing her legs. Her eyes, cold and authoritative, were fixed on Casey. "Start," she commanded.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWith a cold, burning glare fixed on Khloe, Casey shuffled forward, each step heavy with reluctance. Her jaw tightened as she forced out an apology through clenched teeth. "I'm sorry!" Khloe lazily tapped her fingers on her knee, a cold smile curling her lips. "Is that your idea of an apology?" Casey inhaled sharply, snatched the microphone, and forced her apology loud enough to echo through the auditorium. "Khloe, I'm sorry. I was wrong. I never should have underestimated you. I'm asking for your forgiveness!" With those words, she bent at the waist, offering a deep, reluctant bow.
LVFe$t Çh Ap‡ƏRŞ 1п GülThe auditorium erupted into pandemonium at that very moment.
"No way! Casey, the queen of arrogance, is actually apologizing?" "Check it out! It's on live stream and already trending." "Who is that gorgeous woman? She looks so familiar." "That's Khloe Evans. Sloane's sister, the one who turned her own sister in, claiming she was bullied." "I thought it was all a setup? Casey was supposed to defend ZU students. Why is she apologizing to an actress?" "You're out of the loop. The med students can't stop talking about her. Khloe's no ordinary celeb-she successfully performed a heart transplant on Mr. Sampson." "Wait, what?" The students erupted in heated debate, their views of Khloe and Casey undergoing a drastic shift.
"That's not enough," Khloe stated calmly. "You still owea public kneel and apology, as per our bet."
Khloe's words struck hard, draining the color from Casey's face. Her eyes reflected a deep mix of remorse and humiliation. For a moment, it was as if the world stood still, the sound of her ragged breathing the only thing audible.
"Khloe, I get it now," Casey's voice shook. "I was wrong to look dowmon you, to sabotage Mr. Sampson's surgery, and to refuse to own up to my mistakes. I crossed the line."
"What? She sabotaged Mr. Sampson's surgery on purpose?" Casey's confession sent shockwaves through the auditorium, and for the first time, the once-revered academic star faced the piercing scrutiny and disdain of her peers. mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
