Chapter 948
It was clearly a pitiful look of a victim, trying to gain everyone's sympathy.
He stood on the stage, towering at 6'3", with a pitiful and helpless expression.
But instead of evoking sympathy, it sent shivers down my spine.
"Why can't you be more lenient towards me? I worked so hard and I'm really good. Is it becausethere were many spectators from H Rovirsa watching the competition?" Michaelis intensified his actby wiping away tears that didn't exist.
Shivers again!
Sylvia smirked. "Looks like even tough guys have a soft spot for teenage girls... Mr. Michaelis,cheating is still cheating."
"It wasn't me! I didn't do it!" Michaelis glared at Sylvia in anger.
"The evidence is conclusive," Franklin's icy gaze swept over Michaelis's fake expression. Nowonder this man couldn't win fairly.
What an awful stench!
"It was Sylvia who hacked into the system and framed us," Brian continued to argue confidently.
"Now we have invited Mr. Marcel Ramsey, the creator of this scoring system, who has developedmultiple world-renowned security systems, invigilation systems and score calculation systems... Heis one of the best in his field." The host began introducing him in detail.
Hearing this made Brian's face turn pale instantly.
They actually invited the creator of the system?
In no time at all, a man in his early thirties walked out - he looked very dignified but perhaps due tolong hours spent facing computer screens he appeared quite pale.
"I did create this scoring system and someone did maliciously alter it; however I have tracked downtheir IP address and contacted law enforcement agencies to apprehend them. We will soon knowwho they are." Marcel Ramsey spoke slowly with a gentle tone.
"I hate people who disrespect competitions as well as those who don't respect fairness."
"Those who break rules will be punished," he finished speaking with an enigmatic smile that sentchills down our spines.
It was enough to make anyone feel uneasy inside.
The host cleared his throat and put on a professional smile. "Mr. Ramsey made some good points.Those who violate fairness and rules should be punished, and I'm sure the police have alreadytaken action, right?"
"Now let's take a look at the big screen."
As soon as he finished speaking, the camera switched to the big screen showing footage of policerushing to Marcel Ramsey's location in their patrol cars. They arrived quickly and several officersrushed into an unassuming hotel.
The hotel owner looked bewildered as he exclaimed, "What are you doing? I follow all laws..." butthe police ignored him and charged upstairs with determined strides.
The lead officer kicked open one of the doors where three foreign men were playing video gamesinside. Startled by their sudden intrusion, they tried to run but it was too late.
After being apprehended, they immediately confessed that they were hackers hired by BorleiCorporation to cheat for them during H Rovirsa's competition.
Watching those three hackers admitting guilt on the big screen, Marcel Ramsey turned his darkgaze towards Borlei Corporation's representative Brian himself. "Brian please give us all areasonable explanation."
"I am from Aettosa; I don't need to explain anything to you H Rovirsa people because you are notqualified! This is slander against me - an international aviation tycoon - how could my status stoopso low? I demand my country protect me!" Brian stood up angrily with righteous indignation as if hehad nothing to do with this scandal.
"You have no right to punish or detain me!" He glared fiercely at everyone present while severalofficers approached him saying. "Please come with us."
"I won't go! I refuse! This is contempt for my human rights and freedom; this is oppression againstme!" Brian pulled out his phone and started dialing. "Ms. Hogan... save me! These H Rovirsapeople want to convict me of crimes when I am innocent; everything that we did was for ourcompany..."
After hanging up the phone with someone on the other end of the line who seemed satisfied withtheir conversation's outcome. The man had a smug look on his face as he said. "I can leavewhenever I want. You can't do anything about it! I am the king of airplanes!"
Michaelis couldn't believe it... Brian really cheated during their competition. He always thought herelied on his skills since Brian trained them all before they competed; Michaelis believed they all did
well because of their hard work. But now he realized that it was cheating all along! He was so angrythat his face turned red.
However, Michaelis still held onto hope and refused to believe he lost fair and square.
"The scoring system will re-evaluate each participant's score," announced the host quickly afterBrian's cheating scandal came out.
Soon enough, everyone received their new scores. Brogan came first place while Michaelis tooksecond place instead of first like before.novelbin
Michaelis was so angry that her eyes turned red but managed to hold back his emotions by saying."I'll take my loss."
He then walked away from everyone else feeling embarrassed for losing due to someone else'sdeceitful actions.
SouthStar Airlines won both individual and team awards this time around which brought honor notonly for themselves but also for their country!
"Thanks to you guys," Franklin told Sylvia while holding her hand tightly; his eyes shining like starsin admiration towards her accomplishments at SouthStar Airlines' victory ceremony earlier today!
"It wasn't just me," Sylvia replied modestly while waving at Marcel Ramsey - who looked weakerthan ever - walking slowly towards them with a bottle labeled RL 133 in hand asking if he couldhave some more medicine since he loved taking advantage wherever possible!
"You two know each other?" Jasper asked surprised by what just happened between MarcelRamsey calling Mrs. Maskelyne 'boss.'
"Of course! She is my boss!" Marcel Ramsey smiled warmly at Jasper before adding. "Thank youfor letting me go now."
"Don't leave yet! Let us watch my new movie together called 'The Beggarly Girl Is A Noble Lady,'"Sylvia exclaimed excitedly pulling him closer towards herself again before inviting everyone elseover too!
So SouthStar Airlines' participants including Jasper Franklin himself alongside other airlinecompetitors present there were invited by Sylvia Maskelyne herself into watching one of her newestmovies together inside a nearby theater hall where they could relax after such an intense day filledwith competition stress!
Not only that, but also the staff of the International Aviation Commission were invited by Mrs.Maskelyne, the organizer of the event, to watch a movie instead of attending a celebration banquet.
This felt really novel.
Instead of celebrating with a banquet, they were going to watch a movie?
But it was such a unique feeling that these staff members from the International AviationCommission posted on Instagram directly from the cinema with pictures and videos of themselveswatching the movie. They even had popcorn and milk tea bought for them by Sylvia.
Not just them, but also some participants from other countries' airlines posted pictures or smallvideos on their own social media platforms showing themselves being invited by Sylvia to watch thismovie.
"Oh my god! I was actually invited by Mrs. Maskelyne, owner of SouthStar Airlines, to watch thismovie?"
"Mrs. Maskelyne is so beautiful and cool! The movie is amazing!"
"What kind of fairy tale plot is this? 'The Beggarly Girl Is A Noble Lady' is worth watching."
Many netizens from different countries were curious about 'The Beggarly Girl Is A Noble Lady'."What kind of film is it? Is it directed by H Rovirsa?"
"How's its box office performance?"
"Can we watch it online or can we bring it into our country?"
This result was unexpected for Sylvia; she just wanted everyone to enjoy watching her film withoutany other motives or intentions.
However...
'The Beggarly Girl Is A Noble Lady' became trending topic immediately after its release withhashtags like #Sylvia's New Film Is Recommended By All Countries.
Simeon and Eden also promoted their roles in this film vigorously on Twitter despite beingsupporting actors in comparison with two female leads. Their fans showed tremendous support fortheir idols as well.
As soon as 'The Beggarly Girl Is A Noble Lady' became No. 1 at box office rankings list, all eyeswere drawn towards it.
Many famous critics gave positive reviews about this film too. However, fame always comes alongwith controversies.
There have been a lot of negative comments lately, such as Eden being unprofessional and Simeonhiring a personal assistant for certain physical needs. There's even talk that Poppy and Honey's on-screen romance has become real off-screen.
The fabricated rumors are both amusing and frustrating. After the movie was released, they startedto worry about the lead actors causing trouble, but it was inevitable. Especially since many up-and-coming actresses in the industry are inexperienced and unable to carry an entire film or arecriticized for their lack of talent.
However, the two female leads in this movie were exceptional and left everyone feeling satisfiedwith their performances. Even male lead Eden didn't disappoint under director Brock's guidance -his acting skills were impressive.
