Chapter 558: 558: Because I am Strong

Being pushed through the crowd, it seemed impossible to meet Cindy backstage for a while.

Christy Xenos shouted directly: “Cindy, it’s me, I’m your mom! Can you hear me? Come out now!”

“Cindy, your dad and I are here!” Christy Xenos yelled at the top of her lungs, using all her strength.

“Joshua, stop staring and yell! Let Cindy hear you. She must be able to hear us from this close distance, even if there’s a door in between!” Christy Xenos said.

At this moment, Christy Xenos was incredibly quick-witted.

Joshua Clarke quickly came to his senses, nodded, and joined in the shouting: “Cindy, it’s me, your dad! Your mom and I came to see you! Can you hear me? Come out if you can!”

Backstage in the resting room, Daniel Vahn blinked and pulled on his ear, saying, “Am I hallucinating? Why do I hear someone calling Cindy to come out?”

“I heard it too, and they said they were her parents.” Leon Hernandez also said.

Cindy was reporting the situation to Adrian Zhekova and had just sent him a message on Whatsapp.

“My parents are outside, but it sounds like they’re being pushed away according to your plan.” Cindy said.

Now hearing Daniel Vahn and Leon Hernandez, Cindy raised her head and said, “No, you must have heard wrong.”

“Really?” Leon Hernandez asked Parker Honi, “Parker, did you hear it?”

“I heard it.” Parker nodded honestly.

Others also nodded: “I heard it as well.”

“Really?” Only then did Cindy get up to open the door.

However, by this time, the corridor outside the door was empty.

Joshua Clarke and Christy Xenos had already been pushed away by Adrian Zhekova’s people.

“There’s really no one at the door.” Cindy said.

Everyone came to the door.

Indeed, there was no one.

Leon Hernandez shivered: “My God, am I hallucinating?”

Aiden Huxley whispered, shivering: “Maybe there’s something even more terrifying. Is there something there?”

Parker Honi jumped up and shouted: “Shut up!”

He had been scared the whole way here.

And now it came again!

Beat him up!

“It’s possible that someone was really calling me but I didn’t notice because I was chatting.” Cindy said, “I’ll go out and have a look now.”

“We’ll go with you.” Cynthia Florine quickly said.

It seemed that Cynthia Florine believed Aiden Huxley’s words and thought there must be something invisible there.

Cindy: “…”

You guys really turned it into a horror movie!

“It’s okay, there won’t be anything.” Cindy said, “Besides, there are so many people here.”

Everyone thought about it, and it seemed reasonable.

Cindy didn’t let them follow her, she went out alone.

She happened to see the crowd already at the entrance of the Sports Stadium.

Joshua Clarke and Christy Xenos were both short, submerged in the crowd.

Cindy couldn’t see them, and they couldn’t see Cindy either.

Cindy then returned: “There’s really no one there. I think the audience has mostly left, so we can probably leave too.”

So, everyone started packing up and preparing to leave.

Parker Honi suddenly remembered something and asked Ava Brown: “By the way, you mentioned earlier that you wanted to talk to me about something after the competition. What’s it about?”

Because Ava Brown was tired right after the competition, she had forgotten about it.

However, now that Parker Honi asked, Blake Walker had already left. When he came out, Blake Walker, furious, left.

But Cindy was still there.

Ava Brown felt a bit awkward and didn’t know how to start the conversation.

She looked at Cindy uneasily.

Cindy smiled and said: “She wanted to tell you that Adrian Zhekova is my fiancé.”

“What the hell?”

Except for Yellen Brooks and Ava Brown, everyone stared at Cindy in shock.

Leon Hernandez even cried out loud.

Parker Honi was dumbfounded.

Next to him, Aiden Huxley considerately pushed his jaw up and closed his mouth.

Bartholomew Bailey asked: “Ava, how did you find out?”

Ava Brown briefly mentioned the incident of killing the chicken.

“Adrian only came to see when the camera switched to the other contestants.” Cindy followed up with an explanation.

Ava Brown said: “Cindy also told me and Yellen Brooks that if we minded her relationship with Adrian, she could withdraw from the competition.”

“Yellen and I didn’t think it mattered. After all, we’ve seen Cindy’s strength in these three competitions, and she doesn’t need Adrian’s help to win.” Ava Brown said.

“So, it depends on your attitude.” Ava Brown said.

Cindy also looked at everyone.

Actually, she wasn’t worried about the people of under Pingla Academy.

Today was the longest actual interaction she had with them.

During the previous two competitions, they came and started competing after makeup.

Moreover, there were more contestants in the previous two competitions, and the people of Pingla Academy seemed aloof when they didn’t speak.

Cindy didn’t have a chance to have much contact with them.

But today, there were only 15 contestants left.

From the ride in the car to spending a long time on the racecourse, she realized that the people from Pingla Academy were genuinely cute.

It’s not right to say they were naive.

Because they had strong opinions and were actually very smart.

Moreover, they were very confident.

Cindy believed that they wouldn’t mind her relationship with Adrian Zhekova.

The attitude they needed to see belonged to Larry Bennett and Natalie Campbell.

Natalie Campbell spoke first: “I don’t care. Actually, I’ve exceeded my expectations by making it this far. I know my abilities very well.”

“Going forward, I may not be able to hold on much longer. At most, I will compete in two more rounds.” Natalie Campbell said with a smile, “So it doesn’t affect me. Besides, looking at Cindy’s current strength, it’s hard for her to be eliminated anytime soon.”

Larry Bennett laughed: “Natalie is being quite polite. To put it simply, the next competition is a contest between the two of us to see who can get a ticket to the next round.”

“Anyway, both of us have a fifty-fifty chance. Like Natalie, I can only hold on for two more rounds at most.”

“Cindy’s participation or departure has no effect on either of us. The real impact is on you guys from Pingla Academy,” Larry Bennett said, “So it’s up to you. But I can state my opinion: I don’t care, and Cindy doesn’t need to withdraw from the competition.”

Parker Honi nodded and said to Cindy: “Thank you for telling the truth. But I’m not worried because I’m very strong.”

Aiden Huxley hissed and said to the others: “Don’t you think this guy is so annoying when he acts like this? I really want to beat him up.”
