Chapter 676 Give Alexander a Mistress

“Well…” The staff member was at a loss for words at that moment. Cody wasn’t a man they could mess with, but Andy wasn’t someone they could mess with either! One way or another, the staff member would have to offend one of the men. What was he supposed to do?

“Fine. I know I’m putting you in a tough position by telling you to offend Mr. Nixon. I bet you don’t want to do it. But rules are rules—since this person isn’t a member of the Calligraphy Association, you will have to put the piece aside for now. You can store it somewhere else and take it out to put it in one of the display cabinets once the artist receives her ranking. What do you think?” Tiana tried to come up with a solution.

“That’s right, Miss Hill! That’s the perfect solution! Thank you for that idea!” The staff member nodded before shutting the door to the display cabinet and storing the piece elsewhere. Cody didn’t want to start any further conflicts, so he kept quiet and walked off. After they were a distance away, Cody whispered a reminder into Tiana’s ear. “That old man, Andy, thinks he’s better than me and always tries to step all over me in the association. So, Tiana, you’ll have to defend my reputation in the upcoming Calligraphy Competition. You have to defeat that student of his! What was her name? Elise? Crush her!”

Cody and Andy had never gotten along with one another—everyone in the association knew about it. So, when Tiana didn’t respond to Cody after a long period of silence, Cody stopped in his tracks before turning around to question her. “Tiana? Didn’t you hear what I said?”

She hadn’t been paying attention to his words and only returned to her senses when she heard her name. “What? Oh. Yeah. Don’t worry about it, Mr. Carlson. I’ll definitely try my best.” However, she only said those words to please Cody. Deep down, she had no confidence at all. Previously, when Tiana heard that Elise had gotten into the finals, she had assumed that Elise wouldn’t be a threat to her.

But after hearing that Andy had rated Elise’s work as an S-Class piece, she lost her cool. Something always goes wrong when I encounter Elise. Elise might not be better than me at drawing, but I’m sure her calligraphy skills must be good if she received Andy’s approval. Will this incident be a repeat of what happened during National Goddess? Is Elise going to be a dark horse who overtakes me once more?! No. I have to find a way to win the title as the champion of the Calligraphy Competition. I can’t always be in second place!
