Chapter 104:

Elyse sensed an underlying sarcasm in Vicky’s words. She arched an eyebrow and responded, “I never claimed to be the best, but I’d relish the chance to compete with you.”

Vicky tilted her chin up slightly, her voice dripping with pride. “I’m ready anytime.”

Ultimately, Elyse opted out of the television station’s event, choosing instead to concentrate on the next phase of the selection process. She suspected that the incident last night had been orchestrated by someone at the station.
