Chapter 272Â
Byron was always direct when he spoke,Â
659Â
Sophia glared at him, but when she saw Emily looking over, she didn’t make a fuss and asked honestly, “Ms. Johnson, you’re so talented atÂ
drawing. I believe you must be the best at design, too. How was the first place work really?”Â
Emily happened to see Bianca approaching and gestured with her lips. “There’s your first place!”Â
Bianca had gotten close and just heard “first place.” She immediately smiled and greeted Byron. “Byron, you came? Are you here to watch my competition? I’m honored. Fortunately, I didn’t disappoint you either. I’m just slightly better than Emily and got first place.”Â
She figured Byron used to like her so much because she was excellent, right?Â
Emily also caught Byron’s eye because Emily was good at medicine and somehow got the project from Isaac. For Byron, who admiredÂ
Isaac, that naturally meant Emily was impressive as well.Â
So while she seemed humble, saying she was only a bit better than Emily, her expression was full of pride.Â
“You, first place?”Â
Sophia found it hard to believe, and her voice even became somewhat sharp.Â
This immediately drew the attention of people around them.Â
Sophia belatedly realized she had overreacted.Â
Bianca took the opportunity to try to discredit Emily, putting on a slightly hurt expression. “Sophia, I know you’re close with Emily now, and you hate me. For her sake, you’re willing to question my first place, which is questioning the fairness of this competition. Do you know who’s hosting this? It’s the Green family…”Â
How vicious Bianca was–to drag Sophia down with her, she directly used the Green family as a shield.Â
Emily caught Bianca’s intention, her eyes turning cold.Â
Byron, quick–tempered, couldn’t hold back. “Nonsense! What’s your skill level? You think we don’t know? Better than Ms. Johnson? Aren’t you ashamed? And you dare to use the Green family to pressure people. Does the Green family even know? If you ask me, I also doubt your first place is legit. Anyway, this isn’t the first time you’ve done something like this!”Â
Byron had seen through Bianca’s true nature. Thinking about how he was once deceived by her, he wouldn’t give her any courtesy.Â
Especially since she dared to talk about Sophia, he couldn’t control his temper when scolding her. He even forgot there were reporters around and said such crude things.Â

Chapter 272Â
Bianca couldn’t stand that a man who used to please her in every way would now say such vulgar things to her.Â
A cold gleam flashed in her eyes.Â
Since Byron wasn’t giving her any consideration for their past, she wouldn’t hold back this time either.Â
Bianca’s eyes immediately reddened, and her voice grew louder.Â

“Byron, did Emily say something to you? We used to be the closest. You said you’d always protect me. Is it because of Emily’s appearance?Â
If Emily were devoted to you and you treated her well, I’d painfully bless you both. But even if you hate me for telling the truth today, I still have to say it–Emily might not be as innocent as you think.Â
Also, my preliminary design was shown to everyone, and no one questioned it. You came later–did you not even look at it and just doubt me based on Emily’s word? I’m really hurt!”Â
As Bianca spoke, she cried pitifully.Â
The surrounding audience and reporters hadn’t really heard the details of their conflict clearly, but just seeing Emily’s group of three with such a strong presence, while Bianca was just a weak woman in tears.Â
Their hearts leaned toward Bianca.Â
Many people started whispering.Â
Some who couldn’t stand it even walked over.Â
