The Pampering CEO: Don't Mess With My Secretly-Married Sweet Wife novel Chapter 106

"Hello, everyone. I'm the judge in charge of the first few rounds of the design competition this time." Sheldon Parsons appeared all refined and cultured." During the evaluation process, I'll be upholding the fair, just, and open principles and I'll never bother with anyone who isn't capable. The sketches you’ve submitted will be displayed openly to the public when I'm done with the evaluation process. This way, everyone can see if my evaluation is fair. If you feel that there are any unfair parts, I welcome you to propose your query."

Sheldon's speech was magnanimous in bearing. Everyone could tell that if Sheldon were to simply choose low quality work, he would be tarnishing his own reputation as well.

"Does anyone have any questions regarding my speech earlier?” asked Sheldon.

Everyone shook their heads.

Sheldon nodded smilingly. "In that case, I shall announce the theme for the first round. The interior design theme for this round is 'mysterious'. The time period given will be three days. After three days, everyone is required to hand in your design sketch in unison and I’ll be announcing the result within two days."

Mysterious?

Susan Shelby could not help frowning.

It seemed that the theme was rather difficult.

However, it was difficult for her so it was similarly difficult for the rest too.

As long as everyone was on the same starting point, she was fearless.

"Oh, the theme is mysterious. How do I make the interior design mysterious?” said Chance Hamilton in despair as he walked the outside.

"I have no idea either," Susan chuckled. "Let's think it through slowly."

"I suppose that is the only thing we can do."

As they were chatting, Lily Chainwest grunted coldly once as she walked past them.

Then, she said with a mocking expression, "Why don’t both of you go home first to your mothers if you don't know what to do? I'm set on getting first place in this competition."

"Let's wait and see.” Susan only replied with those four words nonchalantly to Lily's provocation.

Lily was glaring at her with an even more unpleasant gaze. She stared at Susan coldly before saying, "Then let's just wait and see."

As she was speaking, she twisted her hip once and left in her ten-centimeter high heels.

"Tsk tsk tsk. Walking on such high heels and she hasn't sprained her ankle either," muttered Chance softly.

Susan chuckled. She was about to speak when she suddenly heard someone scream aloud. It was Lily who had truly sprained her ankle.

Chance was dumbstruck with bewilderment instantly.

"Heh, since when did you pick up the skill of a jinx?” Susan could not refrain herself from asking.

Chance rubbed his chin and said in all apparent seriousness, "I've just discovered my gift recently too. I still need to practice more from now on."

Susan was laughing at his humor when her phone suddenly rang.

Susan picked up the phone.

"Susie.” Julian's deep voice came from the other end o f the call. "Do you miss me?"

Susan could not help blushing. "You're done with work?"

"I just came out of a meeting.” Julian continued to speak, "I thought about you as soon as I came out."

Susan blushed even more. "I thought we just talked on the phone this morning?"

"How can a call be enough? Susie, I really want to fly back to you immediately," said Julian softly.

Susan felt her heart beating rapidly. She pressed her lips tightly and said softly, "I'm going to hang up now. It's not convenient for me to talk, I'm with someone.” 1

From the side, Chance eavesdropped on the conversation and chuckled before saying, "Susie, is that your husband? There’s nothing inconvenient. Go o n with the call.”

The other end of the call quieted down immediately upon hearing Chance’s voice.

The quietness felt like the calm before the storm.

Susan could not help letting out a cough. "Uh..."

"Susan Shelby!" Julian spoke through his clenched teeth, "Why do I feel like I'm hearing Chance's voice!"

"Hmm... He's in the finals too and we bumped into each other," said Susan.

"Hmph! It seems like you’re rather reckless when I'm not around.” Julian grunted coldly.

She was meeting her suitor.
