Married To My Billionaire Stepbrother

Chapter 263: Finished Faster

All three participants stood on the stage, the five judges had taken their seats, and the audience in the event hall, along with those watching on their screens, were buzzing with excitement to see the final result.

The showdown between the two sisters: Was Natalie truly skilled, or just a plagiarist? And what about Briena, the well-known Aroma—would she show her magic again? Who among these two would win this time?

"You can’t be so sure. Aroma’s been out of the spotlight for a long time. She might not be as skilled as before."

"True. And didn’t you see Natalie during that event? She was so confident, and her perfume is set to become this season’s bestseller."

"Let’s wait and watch. I’m sure we’re in for a good show between the two sisters."

Among the audience were family members, each watching intently, their emotions hidden behind composed expressions.
