Everything was set for today's event- the stage, the ballot boxes where the men would put their votes, the officials and school administrations who would tally the votes in the end.
Even the hosts for the events were prepared. Liam, being the most gorgeous professor in the University was tasked to be the male emcee for today's event. He was partnered with Mary, the vice president of the Student Council.
The other students were gathered in the Gym. The others who couldn't be accommodated inside the Gym were gathered in the football field wherein there was a large screen in the middle. They could see what was happening inside the Gym through that large widescreen.
Meanwhile, all the participants were already waiting at the back of the stage except for Zhen-Zhen. Lorenzo came a little bit late so he was not yet done doing Zhen-Zhen's makeup.
Fortunately, with the help and influence of Mary, the Vice President, Zhen-Zhen got the last number to present. There were a total of 30 ladies participating in the selection of the Campus Belle.
Athena should be the last one since she was the reigning Campus Belle but after knowing it's Lillie Meyer got the last number, she didn't mind it. Besides, she's confident that no one would pay attention to Lillie.
Just ten minutes before the presentation started, Tristan and Grandpa Lu arrived at the venue together with Assistant Twig and Matthew. The President of the University didn't expect their sudden arrival.
Upon hearing that the two prominent men from the Davis Family came, he immediately left his paperwork in his office and proceeded to the Gym.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe President didn't have any plan of attending the selection of Campus Belle because the other higher-ups and school administrators were already present. But due to Tristana and Grandpa Lu's presence, he set aside his other work for the day and prioritized entertaining the grandfather and grandson duo.
The other students including the Student Council Members who were the organizer of this event were also puzzled why the CEO and the Chairman of Heavenly Star Enterprise came to watch the Selection of Campus Belle.
If other students were happy to see them, there were some who were pissed off seeing Tristan and Matthew. Those people were none other than Marcus, John, and Lester. The three men were gathered together with the other basketball varsity team members.
"They are here again?" John hissed while looking daggers in the direction of Matthew and Tristan.
Lester just sighed deeply, hoping that they could avoid another confrontation with Matthew and Tristan. Marcus, on the other hand, watched Matthew with his glowering eyes while they were escorted to the row of seats just below the stage.
A sharp glint flickered through his eyes as he gritted his teeth. 'I hate seeing this man's face. He is full of himself, telling me I am nothing compared to him? What a ridiculous joke?! Sophia likes me, that's a fact. He is just in denial.'
It did not take long when Liam and Mary called the attention of everyone. The program had finally started. They heard the cheering of the excited crowd. Their loud noises and applause reverberated inside the gym. They couldn't wait any longer.
Soon, Liam and Mary called the participants one by one. Each participant emerged on the curtain coming from the backstage one after another.
The beautiful ladies walked across the stage, flaunting their stunning dresses and looks. After making some poses in every corner of the stage, they stopped in the middle where there was a standby microphone that they could use when introducing themselves.
Each participant was given 3 minutes to introduce themselves to the crowd, their names, and the class they were representing as well as the promise they wanted to make in order to convince the male population to vote for them.
The gym became lively as the participants started to show off their beauties and make their promises to the men. Loud cheering and whistling could be heard in the gym every after the participants finished their speeches.
Everyone seemed to enjoy the event. Every class was cheering for their representatives. But among them, there was a certain class that was not happy today~ The First-Year Class A that was representing by Zhen-Zhen.
Her classmates were still upset when they learned that Zhen-Zhen was the one representing their class and section. They became a laughingstock in the whole first-year class.
Some upper classes ridiculed them, thinking that they were treating this event as a joke for allowing Zhen-Zhen to be their representative.
Zhen-Zhen's classmates got mad at her, blaming her for the humiliation they got because of her action. Some even cursed her, telling others that they won't even support nor vote for her.
Betsy and Alicia remained silent. They didn't defend Zhen-Zhen to their classmates. They made it look like Zhen-Zhen forced Alicia to back out. Since Alicia was a 'kind and generous friend' of Lillie Meyer, she had no choice but to give way for her.
Unknown to them, Alicia and Zhen-Zhen made a deal. Zhen-Zhen didn't force her but she just negotiated with her. However, Alicia and Betsy didn't speak up for her, letting their classmates hate Zhen-Zhen.
They just cared about the deal and condition they had with Zhen-Zhen. They were already rejoicing upon seeing Tristan Davis. They thought the day has come for them to meet and to formally introduce themselves to Tristan Davis.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThey didn't care even if Zhen-Zhen aka Lillie humiliated herself today. The important thing was they would gain something out of this.
"Aah! I'm so excited! It seems like I will be able to shake hands with Tristan Davis today. Betsy, my crush is so gorgeous. I wonder if he could still remember me," Alicia mumbled with her dreamy eyes.
She recalled the first time she met Tristan on the campus. He was looking for Zhen-Zhen at that time. Who would have thought he was the mighty CEO of the famous company, Heavenly Star Enterprise.
"Hmm, ask him. I think he might remember you. After all, you are a pretty girl," Betsy said, reassuring her friend. Both of them were staring at Tristan, admiring his gorgeous look. He looked stunning with his black corporate suit.
Meanwhile, Tristan who was the center of women's attention was busy conversing with his grandfather and his best friend, Matthew.
"Argh, I'm wanna see my wife. Why hasn't she come out of the stage yet? What number she got?" Tristan complained to Grandpa Lu and Matthew, feeling impatient.
Matthew thought Grandpa Lu would ask Tristan to be more patient and just wait for Zhen-Zhen's turn. However, Grandpa Lu shared the same sentiments with Tristan. He was also bored and now eager to see his granddaughter-in-law.
"Assistant Twig, please check from the organizer what number Lillie got," Grandpa Lu ordered Assitant Twig with urgency.
Both Matthew and Assistant Twig shook their head helplessly. Both grandfather and grandson couldn't wait to see Zhen-Zhen. Assistant Twig had no choice but to comply with his big boss' command.
"Thanks, Grandpa! You are the best!" Tristan praised his Grandpa Lu with a wide grin after hearing his order.
Grandpa Lu just nodded his head with a broad smile on his face. "I want to see her too. I wonder what she looks like now. Hmm. She will outshine all the beauties here. I am sure of it!"
