The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 654

" I'd like to invite the princess to take a stroll with me outside..."

Princess Matilda looked puzzled, but agreed and got up from her seat. The judges looked equally confused as they followed Matilda and Chloe out of the competition venue.

The crowd was still dense outside. Keira had been waiting outside because she was anxious about Chloe's performance. Most people were there because they knew Princess Matilda was present and had come to see her. Upon hearing that the last competitor standing was a woman named Chloe, they started to become curious about her.

"Keira, what do you think Chloe is up to? She knows there's probably no hope, but she keeps on going..."

Annarie frowned. Even as she said this, she felt a bit uneasy. After spending three years with Chloe, she knew her resilience all too well.

Keira was torn. On one hand, she wanted Chloe to advance. On the other hand, she wanted her to be eliminated.

"Don't say that! Chloe's strength is pulling through tough situations. You might think there's no hope now, but to her, it might not be a problem at all..."

Annarie grimaced, "Without the essential oils, how is she going to advance?"

Keira smirked, giving her a side glance. "Are all the essential oils gone?"

Annarie frowned, "There are some left, but as you've seen, most people chose to withdraw from the later rounds. This implies that the usable essential oils are really scarce. For someone who has no talent, she's just struggling."

In the end, Chloe led Princess Matilda to the purple field of lavender. Matilda looked at her, still puzzled. She shrugged, shook her head, and said helplessly, "You seem very clever, I really want to know what you're thinking."

Chloe raised an eyebrow, speaking in fluent French, "Is your throat still bothering you?"

Princess Matilda blinked, touched her throat with her gloved hand, and then looked surprised.

"Oh my, it's much better. Come to think of it, I haven't coughed since earlier."

Chloe laughed lightly, just as she had anticipated.
