Chapter 20 Pretending to be a sheep
Chapter 20 Pretending to be a sheep
Swanstrom's room.
Swanstrom looked at the simply furnished hotel room without any displeasure in his heart.
It doesn't matter if she loses Morgan's temporary favor, her arrival has already stirred up the family, and
when the family starts to go haywire, she'll be able to find the truth she wants!
The ceremony started in half an hour.
Before leaving the room, Swanstrom went to the mirror and reshuffled his hair, which was a bit messy.
The girl in the mirror looks sweet, playful, and well-behaved as hell.
But only she knows that it is only her mask.
The big wolf pretending to be a lamb can bite people faster, more accurate and harder, so that the
enemy has no power to fight.
The ceremony venue was decorated in a grand atmosphere, with coffee tastings from various coffee
bean sponsors placed everywhere, and a strong coffee aroma spread throughout the venue.
Maddison stepped into the meeting and took a cup of coffee and put it in front of her nose and smelled
it, then she turned her head to Morgan and said: "This coffee is not bad, the aroma is very mellow, look
at the size of the coffee beans, the origin of the coffee beans should be ...... from Colombia. "
The sponsor next to me happened to hear it and came over appreciatively and said, "The lady has a
good eye, our coffee beans originate from Colombia."
The sponsor was complimenting Maddison, and Morgan was overjoyed to hear it and looked at
Maddison with pride.
Maddison was basking in her pride when she looked up and saw her sponsor looking at Swanstrom
with a stunned look on his face, as if he had been frozen in place.
Maddison has no doubt that the sponsors will be drooling if they read any further.
She was annoyed and jealous.
Swanstrom is the same age as her, just in her early twenties, and is actually still a young girl, not yet
faded from the young girl's tender.
In a few years, Swanstrom will have grown up and become a great success.
When the time comes, she is afraid that she is not even qualified to become an insignificant person by
her side.
The more Maddison thought about it, the more she hated it and wanted Swanstrom to disappear
immediately.
This village girl, who should not have appeared in the first place, appeared to mess up her life!
Maddison took two steps directly to the left, blocking the sponsor's view, and casually picked up a cup
of coffee and handed it to Swanstrom, with bad intentions slightly under his eyes.
Maddison forced the coffee in her hand to Swanstrom and said, "Sister, you should try their coffee too, I
think it's pretty good."
Swanstrom Before he could say anything, Maddison suddenly covered her mouth again, looking like
she had just thought of it, and said, "I forgot ...... sister you've been staying in the country, you must not
have had coffee, right?"
When the sponsor behind him heard this, the brightness when he looked at Swanstrom dimmed a few
points. He had come to find his spokesperson, and just now he thought Swanstrom's image was very
good.
And didn't think the girl had even had coffee? And also from the countryside ......
Such a girl, even if she is beautiful, is not suitable to be their image spokesperson, if the netizens know,
this spokesperson will only bring them negative impact.
Can't have it!
Swanstrom didn't care about Maddison's words, she just wanted to taste them.
So she ended up tasting the coffee and then frowned, "It's too bitter."
This coffee smells good, but the taste in the mouth is too bitter, in addition to bitter, but no aftertaste of
mellow, the quality is not as good as Maddison said.
Maddison took the coffee directly back from Swanstrom's hand, only to assume that Swanstrom was
ignorant of coffee.
A village girl from the countryside, how do you know about coffee?
Satisfied with Swanstrom's response, Maddison turned to her sponsor and said apologetically, "I'm
sorry, sir, it's not your coffee that's bad, it's my sister who's not used to coffee."
The sponsor's mind was reinforced by the fact that Swanstrom could not be considered.
This is a complete ignorance of coffee!
He renewed his smile to Maddison and said, "It's okay, it's normal to not be used to coffee. Then I won't
bother a few of you, I'll leave first."
The sponsor gives Maddison a nod and turns to leave.
Morgan looks at the sponsor's back thoughtfully.
His second daughter is, indeed, far superior to his eldest daughter.
Taylor, fearing Morgan's anger, purposely chided, "Maddy, you too, how could you give your sister
coffee in front of so many people?"
Maddison looked aggrieved: "I forgot for a while ......"
Morgan waved her hand and said, "Children are forgetful. It's a disgrace to me!"
Swanstrom lowered his eyes and apologized with a low brow, "I'm sorry, Dad, you don't have to be mad
......"
"Forget it!" Morgan impatiently looked away and instructed Maddison, "It's almost time, go backstage
and get ready, Dad and Mom are waiting for you in the audience to receive your award."
"Okay, Dad." Maddison smiled sweetly, waved at Taylor, and headed backstage with her credentials in
hand.
Swanstrom followed Morgan and Taylor toward the audience.
I don't know if it was intentional or not, but she was left far behind by Morgan, like she was avoiding
something dirty, as if she didn't come with her.
This, is her father, the good father who can leave her at any time if she has no use for him!
Swanstrom's eyes slipped through a sharp cold aura and desolate loneliness, but only for a moment,
she was well hidden under the eyes of the emotions, softly followed Morgan.
The ceremony started soon after they were seated.
More people showed up today than at the usual ceremony because, of course, this year's guest of
honor, an additional Khalid .
Many people fought for a spot in the ceremony just to have a chance to show their face in front of
Khalid.
Finally, as the host's introductory remarks ended, the guests came out.
The first person to appear on is one of the founders of Royal College of Coffee, the second is a famous
coffee master in the industry, and the third is Evans who met Swanstrom by chance on the plane.
The last guest -
"Finally, let's welcome the President of Spencer Group, Khalid!"
As soon as Khalid's name appeared, there was a huge round of applause.
It can be said that more than half of the audience came for Khalid.
Those cameras set up were immediately aimed at the backstage exit, and after the ceremony,
technology would edit the video and post it on the Royal College of Coffee's official blog.
Every year the ceremony video generates a wave of attention, and a big reason for this is that Khalid
will make an appearance.
Khalid was seen walking unhurriedly from the backstage steps to the front of the stage and bowed with
a light face.
But as he swept his gaze across the audience, he suddenly saw a familiar person.
Is that ......Swanstrom ?
He couldn't help but rest his eyes on Swanstrom for a couple of seconds before looking away and
bowing to the audience, "Hello everyone, I'm Khalid."
The applause at the bottom became more enthusiastic.
Seeing the good response from the audience, the host called out to Khalid who was about to enter the
guest seat and said, "Mr. Spencer, look at the enthusiasm of the audience, please say a few more
words!"
Khalid subconsciously wanted to refuse, but when he remembered someone sitting on the stage, he
couldn't help but agree to the host's invitation.
Khalid cleared his throat and broke into an extra sentence, "I'm honored to be invited by Royal College
of Coffee to the awards ceremony, and after the awards, I will announce today's Deep Night Cafe
spokesperson."
These words reached Maddison's ears backstage through the live sound.
In this moment her heart was beating fast and her eyes were glowing, as if she was going to be on top
of her life in the next second.
Being a spokesperson for Deep Night Cafe means you get to meet Khalid on a regular basis.
Moreover, this endorsement will help her to get a role in Mr. Lane's new movie and enter the top stream
circle with one foot.
Thinking about it, Maddison tightened her grip, she was the winner, the spokesperson was hers!
......
Front Desk.
The host said a few words to warm up the crowd and send Khalid to his seat, and then invited Evans,
the ceremony witness, to the stage.
Evans was all smiles as he swept his eyes, if at all, in the direction of Swanstrom, then looked around
the room and said, "Thank you all for coming to the awards ceremony ......"
After saying some opening remarks, Evans got right to the point and said, "Now then, let's announce
the results of this competition. We'll start with the third place finishers ......"
Soon, the third runner-up finished receiving the award, and it was the winner's turn.
Evans paused before announcing, "Congratulations to our winner, Miss Gardner!" Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Backstage Maddison breathed a sigh of relief and moved excitedly toward the front of the stage.
The bottom applauded.
Maddison received the championship trophy from Evans with a blush on her face.
The trophy was solid gold, and Maddison held it in her hand, the whole thing smug.
"Thank you all, thank you Mr. Evans, and thank you to my parents for always supporting me, I will
continue to work hard in the future!"
Maddison was so excited that her voice choked up.
Just then, Evans spoke up, "Now, I'd like to invite Mr. Spencer to the stage to announce the
spokesperson."
Maddison instantly got more excited.
She watched Khalid walk on stage and almost forgot to hand Khalid the microphone.
Khalid took the microphone and spoke, "Long story short, let me just announce the spokesperson."
Maddison excited and nervous, spread palms to see, found a thin layer of fine sweat on the palms of
the hands.
It's coming, it's coming!
The pinnacle of her life!
Khalid's gaze did not even sweep Maddison, his eyes lingered on Swanstrom for a second before
speaking, "The spokesperson is ......Swanstrom , Miss Brooks."
