Chapter 100:

Kallie instantly became the center of attention.

Curious onlookers clustered around, peppering Kallie with questions about her activity.

Nearby, Irene stood, her smile broad as she fielded explanations.

No one seemed bothered by Kallie’s muteness. In fact, many openly admired her.

“Her craftsmanship is astounding. It’s as if the tools spring to life in her hands.”

“I wish I had her skillful touch in my artifact restoration class. My professor would’ve spared the constant critiques.”

“Is it just me, or is there something truly inspiring about her? Her silence seems to deepen her connection to her work. It’s absolutely calming to watch her.”

As the crowd swelled, Irene seized the moment to share Kallie’s story, boosting her visibility.

Kallie’s beauty and her tranquil, gentle smile added to her allure.

Numerous spectators whipped out their phones to capture the moment.

Even the media crew Eastonville University had invited began to turn their cameras toward Kallie, drawn by her quiet charm.

Vernon observed from afar, his expression unreadable. His meticulously planned opening ceremony and the various displays were being neglected. Instead, all eyes were fixed on a mute woman he had looked down upon. He felt Kallie was in no position to represent Eastonville University, and if the event didn’t go well as he had planned, the blame would fall squarely on him.

Determined, Vernon strode forward. As he neared the throng of cameras, his stern expression melted into a welcoming smile. “Ladies and gentlemen,” he began, his voice carrying across the room, “I invite you to explore the other exhibits our dedicated students have prepared. Your support for their hard work would mean a great deal.”
