The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella and Romeo) novel Chapter 713

Hans quickly grabbed her hand, saying, "You're going to bleed."

"Ranking isn't everything." Hans tried to comfort her.

"It IS!" Molly quickly corrected him, "I'm here representing Solterra today. I can't just quit halfway like this!"

Seeing her hesitate, Hans couldn't help but ask softly, "What else?"

Molly couldn't hide the disappointment and sadness in her eyes, and she was on the verge of tears.

It was all over.

She wasn't Arabella. Winning was the only solution she could think of.

Tears welled up in Molly's eyes, "Mr. Collins, is the competition really over?"

"Yeah." Hans pointed to the clock on the wall, "It's been half an hour."
