Chapter 1410:

Elyse addressed the audience with a radiant smile. “I’d like to address a recent misunderstanding,” she began. “It’s been said that I won the Swan Cup through cheating. But that’s not true. I earned my place through every round of competition.”

She turned her gaze to Nick and added, “I took the liberty of having someone look into the incident that befell you. At the onset of the Swan Cup, there was a deplorable display of misconduct during the competition. Tragically, Nick, you were unfairly confined in a lounge and missed your designated match. The individual responsible for these dishonorable actions was swiftly apprehended by law enforcement following the competition and is now serving time in prison. Despite your unwavering belief that I played a part in this deception, let me be clear—it was not me.”
