Chapter 668 The Chosen Three

“Well, Lady Diane, I’m afraid it’s too late to change anything now,” Natalie said.

Diane sighed. “You’re right.”

Although there was no concrete evidence, she was of the view that Natalie knew more than just medicine.

Natalie smiled but did not utter any word.

She understood that Diane was a principled person. The latter would not temper with the results of the lucky draw

just to get her to perform in the talent show. Besides, there was a huge crowd, and the odds of getting chosen were

highly unlikely.

However, the fact that Diane was playing a fair game didn’t mean that the others would do the same.

At the moment, a man dressed in a green vest had accepted a cheque from Jacquelin backstage.

“Ms. Lancaster, this is really a lot for what you’ve entrusted me to do,” said the man. However, it was clearly not

genuine as he continued to count the banknotes happily.

“Money is not the issue. What matters to me is that you finish the job.” Jacqueline crossed her arms and instructed,

“I hope everything will go according to plan.”

“Yes, of course. I understand. I’ll make sure to do it perfectly.”

“Good.” With that, Jacqueline strode off gracefully in her dress.

When she returned to the event hall, Cassidy asked curiously, “Jacqueline, where did you go?”

“I’m preparing for what’s coming. Ther’s going to be an interesting show later…” said Jacqueline. “I’ve bribed the

staff backstage to ensure that Natalie will be chosen. When that happens, we’ll be able to witness Natalie making a

fool out of herself on stage!”

“You…”

“I can’t stand her being in the limelight.” Jacqueline pursed her lips. “She may be better at pleasing Lady Diane, but

I don’t think that she’s better than me when it comes to a talent show.”

“But…”

“No buts! I’ve been training for years and you know it!”

Cassidy did not know what else she could say.

Jacqueline had been known to be an arrogant person. However, it also could not be denied that she was a talented

singer. Even Sabrina, the international singer, had regarded Jacqueline highly and offered to take Jacqueline in as

her student. Because of this, Jacqueline was given the title of “Nightingale,” and not many people could surpass her

talent in singing.

If Natalie were to compete with Jacqueline in a talent show, it would be impossible for the former to win.

Moments later, it was time for the talent show.

Diane went up to the stage and pressed the button to initiate the lucky draw. The screen started showing the

randomizing process which eventually settled down to the last three numbers printed on the guests’ invitation card.

“007, 088, and 143,” Diane enunciated with great enthusiasm. “Can we have our honored guests come up to the

stage please?”

The crowd started scanning through the venue to identify the chosen guests.

As Jacqueline already knew beforehand that she would be chosen, she stood up from her seat almost immediately

upon the announcement.

Yara looked at her own invitation and realized that she was No. 143. Hence, she put down her glass of champagne

and gradually stood up as well.

However, it took a long time for No. 7 to stand up.

Diane frowned. “Can I trouble our crew members to please check who is guest No. 7?”

At that moment, Natalie sighed and stood up unwillingly.

“It’s me.”

She had thought that she wouldn’t be so lucky, or rather unlucky in her case, to be chosen. But much to her dismay,

she was chosen among the two hundred guests that were present. In fact, even Yara was chosen as well. She

couldn’t help but feel baffled by her luck.

Diane, however, was beyond delighted to find out that guest No. 7 was Natalie. She beamed. “What a coincidence

that every chosen guest is a lady! We’ll give them some time to prepare, and let us look forward to their wonderful

performances!”
