His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 311

On the way back, Giselle would not stop grumbling, "Lily, although we dodged a bullet earlier, your behavior today was very inappropriate. Due to your impulsiveness, our efforts were almost in vain."

Lily expected this from Giselle, but she did not expect her to be so long-winded, so she smiled at her, "Was it that serious?"

Seeing that Lily did not recognize the gravity of the situation, Giselle became deadly serious, "Lily, I don't know how you could still smile. Do you think that nothing happened? It just so happened that you knew Mr. Parker’s daughter, but what if you didn’t know her? What if his daughter didn't show up? What if she didn’t think of you as her friend?

"When we are in someone else's territory, we are at the mercy of the host. The organizer was indeed negligent, but we can always give feedback to them later instead of accusing them in public. If they disqualify us over this…”

"Well, they didn’t include us as qualified candidates!" Lily interrupted Giselle. She could not stand her ranting, "Please, there’s just too many ‘what ifs’ that you’re suggesting."

Giselle was stunned there, not knowing what to say for a while.

"Giselle, I know you’re looking out for the company, and your intention is good, but can't you see? Participants from Hyderland and other smaller countries do not matter here. In fact, it doesn’t matter whether we are qualified for this competition. Believe it or not, even if I won the prize this time, they’ll say I got it illegitimately.”

The issue of discrimination was already prevalent here, and now that everyone knew that she was friends with Wesley Parker’s daughter, if she won the award, people would undoubtedly think that she got it through connections.

What Melanie said earlier was an excellent example.

Of course, Melanie did not represent everyone, but some people would think the same way. Lily could already foresee the consequences before she participated in the competition.
