Regretting the Wife He Threw Away

Chapter 405

Crowning Night arrived right on schedule for Ottilie Kensington.

Just as everyone had predicted, Ottilie swept the votes and took home the championship.

To maximize the buzz, the showrunners had even invited Rosita Lockwood to present the award.

Rosita glided onto the stage in a glamorous gown, high heels clicking against the floor as she moved gracefully toward Ottilie, the roar of fans filling the air.

The two sisters, at the height of their careers, embraced each other on stage, both breaking down in tears of joy.

It was a moment that moved countless fans.

Thunderous applause filled the hall as the triumphant championship anthem played.

The show was being broadcast live. At that very moment, in the second-floor study of Skybreeze Retreat, Briony Kensington and James Delaney were watching the awards.

James had a bag of chips in one hand and a can of soda on the table beside him.

To really set the mood, James had set up a projector for maximum cinematic effect.

Watching Ottilie and Rosita sobbing in each other's arms, James rolled his eyes so hard it was almost comical. "Give it a minute-they're fake crying now, but just wait, the real tears are coming."

Briony just pressed her lips together to hide her amusement.

Finally, the awards ceremony arrived. Rosita took the trophy and handed it to Ottilie herself. But just as the crowd reached its fever pitch, the giant screen behind them suddenly went dark.

A moment later, a recording played over the speakers-
