Chapter 848:

The staff members exchanged a look and moved toward Fiona, signaling it was tfor her to leave. Fiona

hastily retreated, asserting, “I'm merely delivering something for a friend. I'll be out of your way shortly.”

Gavin was impatient. “Well, you should have left already. What's keeping you here?”

With a fierce glare, Fiona snapped, “Alright, I'm leaving.”

Once out of Gavin's sight, Fiona exhaled deeply, feeling temporary relief from the confrontation. Under her

breath, she muttered defiantly, “He thinks he can forceout? If Elyse doesn’t show, | might just step in for her.

It doesn’t matter which one of us competes.” Still, Fiona needed to understand the delay in the competition's

start, so she went looking for someone in the know.

Meanwhile, in the car, Elyse noticed traffic clearing up ahead and excitedly remarked, “Look, the traffic’s

clearing!”

David, confident, responded, “Yes, it's clearing up. We'll get there in tfor you to participate in the

competition.”

“What? Someone anonymously reported a bomb in the concert hall?”

Fiona had approached a staff member and discovered the reason for the delay in the competition. After pausing

to think, she quickly added, “Is there actually a bomb, or could it just be a hoax?”

The staff member shook his head. “We haven't verified the presence of a bomb inside the concert hall, but there

was definitely an explosion near the back door. For the safety of everyone, we must rule out any possible bomb

threats before the competition can proceed.”

Fiona nodded, showing her understanding, expressed her gratitude to the staff member, and hurried back to

Elyse’s lounge. She took out her phone and made a call. “Hello, Kaelyn. You need to cup with a plan quickly.

Someone planted a bomb in the concert hall, and now the competition has been postponed.”

Upon hearing this, Kaelyn responded indifferently, “If there's a bomb, just disarm it. Why involve me? I've done

all I can for you. Do you expectto handle bombs as well?”

Fiona replied anxiously, “That’s not what I'm implying. Doesn't it strike you as odd? An anonymous tip about a

bomb in the concert hall, and now the competition is on hold.”

“You're implying that someone intentionally postponed the competition?” While Kaelyn continued to casually

tend to her fingernails, she mused, “Even with the delay, Elyse won't be able to return. Do you know where |

took her? She's in a secluded area within the state, guarded by its own armed forces. Elyse might not even

survive there.”

“Are you certain?” Fiona was dubious about Kaelyn’s claims.

Kaelyn scoffed, “If you don’t believe me, then don’t bother asking for my help. We're nearly done with our

partnership, and you're still questioning me? | really don’t want to deal with someone like you anymore.”

Fiona, visibly embarrassed, quickly apologized. “Sorry, that wasn’t my intention. I'm just really worried that Elyse

will steal my opportunity.”

Upon hearing this, Kaelyn couldn’t help but burst into laughter. She taunted, “Are you serious? Your opportunity?

Had | not orchestrated a car accident to eliminate a finalist previously, would you even be here? Your abilities are

truly mediocre. Every chance you've gotten has been due to my manipulations.”

Flushed with humiliation by Kaelyn’s remarks, Fiona quickly responded, “Regardless, I'm deeply thankful for all

you've done. After the competition, I'll make sure you get what you desire.”
