Observing everyone's reactions from the crowd, Yolanda suddenly found this Crystal Queen pageant interesting. Since they all thought she could not possibly compete or challenge Skye, why not waste some time playing their game?
After all, nothing was impossible for her.
"Yolanda?" As she stepped forward, Aileen grabbed her sleeve. "Don't act on impulse. They'll just mock you! Someone as brilliant as you doesn't need to be judged by looks! It's not fair!"
Aileen truly believed in Yolanda's excellence but knew one person could not fight society's prejudices alone. She did not want Yolanda to become a victim of this unfair battle or have her confidence destroyed.
"It's fine." Yolanda gave her a calm smile. "Do you think I'm afraid of them?"
Aileen had not expected Yolanda to smile at a time like this. But seeing her composure, she released her grip. She could not stop Yolanda from making her own choices no matter how worried she was.
Yolanda emerged from the crowd to face Skye. "I'm Yolanda. I heard you were looking for me."
"You're... Yolanda Henderson?" Skye stared in disbelief. Could this plain, fat girl possibly be the school idol of First Academy? What a joke!
Feeling mocked, anger burned inside her. "Even if Yolanda won't show herself, there's no need for such an insult! Do you expect me to believe you're the school idol?"
"She really is my sister..." Yvonne's timid voice turned the atmosphere even colder.
"Hahaha!"
