My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 1850

Edwin slammed the 'defeat' button at once. At that juncture, Nicole immediately became the first person to secure a victory in the first round. This surprised the audience, who glanced at Zeke before turning back to look at Nicole.

"Who is she?"

"I don't know...but one thing is for sure, she's really good. Her opponent seems to be Edwin Bradford."

"Yeah, he got fifth place last year."

"I think so, but why did he admit defeat so easily?"

People were talking among themselves; they could not shake off how amazing Nicole was, and some even went as far as to think that Edwin might have regressed.

Yet, nobody present was aware that Edwin's technology and skill had progressed to great heights. He had thought that if he could secure a winning spot in this competition, he would be able to attract enough attention to promote his company and recruit fresh graduates along the way. He had not foreseen the idea that he would be crossing paths with Nicole and getting himself eliminated at such an early stage in the competition.

Edwin went over to Nicole before leaving the stage, "The company's reputation solely depends on you now."

Nicole gave him a helpless look. "Gotcha."

'To be up against Nicole, anyone pitted against her stands no chance. I should just consider myself unlucky,' he thought.

Director Monroe had breathed a sigh of relief as Nicole sauntered off the stage. Edwin was also a student at Royal Creek Institute, but Director Monroe had inexplicably thrown most of her support at Nicole. Between the two of them, Director Monroe had directed the bulk of her attention to Nicole due to the fact she was only a high-schooler.

Director Monroe then waited for the two of them to come back, after which she comforted Edwin before asking Nicole, "Why did you launch your counterattack after ten minutes?"
