CEO’s Surrender: With You, I Can Never Win

Chapter 14

The revelation rang out like a thunderclap in her ear.

Tricia’s eyes widened in horror.

“You-”

“Miss Keith, I hope you could just harder with your own efforts in the future. Copying other people’s recipes will not get you anywhere. How about this? When you want to learn more, my door is always open. I don’t mind teaching you.”

Before Tricia could retort, Finley had turned away and left. Some reporters left, following behind the new champion but others stayed and continued taking pictures of her pathetic appearance.

A cameraman accidentally stepping on her hand snapped her back to her senses. With a loud roar, she lurched to her feet and rushed at Finley.

This time, Finley did not even bother to turn around.

Two bodyguards in black suits blocked Tricia’s path.

“Miss Keith, please cooperate and leave the venue now.”

“NO!” Tricia moved to go around the men but was instantly captured.

She struggled to get out of their hold.

“That woman is an imposter! Let me go! I will tear that b*tch’s mask off!”

“Miss Keith, please watch your words. The Annual Fragrance Competition is a reputable event. Not just anyone can enter. Are you accusing us of not doing our jobs now?”

The other guard snorted, “Well, we did let this one in.”

The first bodyguard grimaced slightly, “True… This won’t happen again.”

Meanwhile, Tricia was trying to digest the fact that her ugly half-sister was a beautiful and talented perfumer.

No! Impossible!

That b*tch must be wearing a mask or have gone for plastic surgery!

While Tricia was forcibly kicked out of the venue, Finley calmly entered the banquet hall for the celebratory dinner and accepted a glass of wine. She casually glanced at the man staring at her with dark unfathomable eyes and looked away without a change in expression.

She acted like she didn’t see him!

Finley found a corner to sit down, casually placing the solid gold trophy on the table in front of her.
