Rebirth of the Deadly Beauty novel Chapter 699

While the First Academy students admired Yolanda's academic achievements, they knew the Crystal Queen pageant demanded more than good grades. Appearance and talent were crucial requirements.

With Yolanda's unremarkable looks and figure, how could she possibly compete? Though First Academy students supported their own, they were realistic enough to know that her participation would embarrass the school.

"Aren't you mistaken?" Yvonne asked, puzzled. "Yolanda never said she would enter the pageant."

"Isn't she your school idol?" Skye became impatient. After seeing Yvonne, she had assumed Yolanda wouldn't look bad either. Now, Yolanda's absence seemed deliberate and condescending.

"School idol?" Hearing those words, Yvonne's expression turned strange. "I think you've misunderstood what kind of idol..."

"Enough! Get her out here!" Skye had run out of patience. "Some people saw your students handing out banners supporting her yesterday. Wasn't that publicity for the pageant?"

Her words were met with silence. That was not the reason at all.

"Banners? What's this about?" Yolanda frowned in the crowd.

"Yolanda, that's not it... I just wanted to celebrate your championship!" Aileen never expected her impulse would cause such a misunderstanding and put Yolanda in the spotlight.

She apologized guiltily, "I'm sorry. I didn't think it'd make people misunderstand."
