Terry took the stage as the contestants looked at him, each sitting on the edge of their seats. He said, "I shall announce the winner of the Scientific Research Competition!" Trina was so nervous that her nails dug into her palms. Even Toby balled his fists and stared at the professor unblinkingly.

'It's over. My grand plot for revenge has ended before it could even start. I won't get another shot as easy as this one to make something of myself.' The host passed a microphone to Toby, who asked, "If I may, Professor Terry, when can I start my internship in the research institute?" "We must still prioritize your studies here, young man. So, you'll have to cin every weekend." "All right, that's great!" Toby thought deeply, 'Today's Wednesday so I can enter the place of my dreams three days from now. I'll finally meet Ms. Bonita, the pillar of the world of scientific research! I have to call my parents and tell them the good news.' Trina left the venue, looking like a lost soul as she returned home.
"What are you doing hso soon, sweety? Did the competition end? Did you win?" Vera bombarded her daughter with questions.
However, Trina simply hung her head and gritted her teeth.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Why aren't you saying anything? Are you pretending you lost to surprise us?" Vera thought, 'Trina's a child every parent wished they had. She's intelligent, cunning, and gifted, especially in scientific research. A former professor of Pyralis University even supported her generously and showered her with approvals. I know she won the competition.' However, the more she asked, the paler Trina became. Ultimately, Gresham sensed something was wrong and asked, "Did you lose?" That was all it took to shatter his daughter's last shred of confidence. Tears streamed down Trina's cheeks a moment later, and her mother's face fell. Then, the latter slumped into the couch and muttered, "Trina lost. How can this be? "I told all our relatives that you participated in the competition and would wipe the floor with everyone else. I can't believe you lost. What am I supposed to tell them now? How can I face them?!" The butler led a group of relatives to the living room as if on cue. They all congratulated Gresham and his family.
"Congratulations! You guys are so lucky to have a daughter as talented as Trina."
"I envy you guys! If only Fernanda were half as excellent as Trina M would've considered myself the luckiest mother in the world."
O Kaysen added, "Ysabel, Trina's about to work at Bonita Research Institute. You should stay here and steep in her room tonight. That way, you can learn everything from her as best you can."
Everyone praised Gresham and his family, so nobody noticed how bleak Trina looked. A moment later Harold and Yolanda approached compliment Gresham and Vera generously. "You guys have taught Trina well. We're very proud of you. I want you two to look after the family company from now on." Grant and Kaysen gnashed their teeth with anger.
'It looks like Gresham will continue to be the head of the family.'
