My Ex-wife's Hidden Personalities

Chapter 307 How Could She Be the First 

As it was close to noon, many people in the villa came downstairs to have lunch.

Freya glanced around and saw that everyone had the same idea as the girl before, buying the cheapest instant noodles that could last them a few days.

In the eyes of most people, the competition was the most important.

It seemed that no one was planning to earn coins yet.

Freya narrowed her eyes and thought that maybe if she and Brisa went now, they might be able to snatch a decent task.

The people here were looking at Freya with strange looks, so the two of them didn’t stay downstairs for long and simply carried the self-heating hot pot upstairs.

On the balcony of the third floor, Freya pondered and shared her thoughts with Brisa.

“Right, at this time, there shouldn’t be many people going to accept tasks yet. Everyone is preparing to endure these few days. If someone goes to accept tasks first, maybe the production team will give some preferential treatment to attract others to go and do the tasks.”

Freya nodded. “Yes, let’s go and take a look in the afternoon.”

Brisa agreed, and it was already half past noon when they finished lunch. The villa once again echoed with the sound of an announcement.

“All contestants, please gather at the pink beach before one o’clock in the afternoon.”

There were complaints in the villa, and Freya and Brisa quickly tidied. up downstairs.

There were still many contestants grumbling on the first floor. and went

“They woke us up so early in the morning, and now they want us to go out during nap time. Why is this competition so troublesome?”

“Isn’t it because Freya has attracted so much attention with her popularity? With so many people paying attention now, they must make some gimmicks to trouble us.”

The two people who were talking looked up and saw Freya and Brisa coming down from upstairs, and they immediately went silent.

Freya didn’t really care. This was a competition in the first place. She would let the people say what they wanted to say. After all, she didn’t come here to make friends. However, Brisa’s eyes swept coldly over the two people as she narrowed her eyes.

The two women suddenly felt as if a steel knife was placed on their necks, feeling a chill, and they fell silent in fear.

Outside the villa, only half of the people had arrived on the beach.

Freya looked at the time. It was already 12:50 p.m.

There were ten minutes left until one o’clock in the afternoon.

When it was time, the staff and a leader from the organizing committee appeared on the beach on time.

Freya, while waiting, watched the staff constantly check their watch and sensed that. something was wrong.

Helga arrived at the last minute. She had just joined the queue.

The staff shouted, “Time’s up.”

The other people who were walking over from a distance were startled and immediately picked up their pace toward this side.

The staff looked at them and only said when they came close, “Unfortunately, you have been eliminated.”

“What?”

“Why are we eliminated?!” The girl who was leading them was shocked.

“Our competition has rules, and I hope everyone can respect the rules. You were late for the first time this morning, and I didn’t say anything. But if you keep doing it again and again. with this attitude of yours, no matter how good the perfume you create is, you won’t be able to establish yourself in this society.”

The faces of the girls turned ugly, and they gritted their teeth. “You are deliberately reducing the number of contestants, aren’t you?”

There were also two men following behind the girls. There weren’t many male perfumers, and the two of them immediately looked angry after hearing the words. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

“Why are we eliminated?”

The organizing committee staff glanced at the two of them.

“You have no sense of punctuality, so you are not worthy of being a perfumer.”

“What does being a perfumer have to do with having a sense of punctuality?” they shouted.

“Many times, the production process of perfume requires attention to time. If you go out into society like this, even if you find a good company or establish your own brand of perfume, there is no guarantee of

the quality of your products. You don’t respect this profession at all.”

The staff continued, “If you are interested, fix your own problems and come back to participate next year. But if you continue to cause trouble, the organizing committee will permanently cancel your qualification to participate.”

The group fell silent. Everyone here was in this profession and knew the authority and importance of this competition. If they wanted to have a place in the industry, they had to show some talent in this competition.

After a while, although some people were unwilling, they obediently left.

Freya looked at Helga beside her, who seemed a bit shocked and was clutching her chest.

She came at just the right time this time, Freya thought.

After the latecomers left, the staff turned to look at every one of them.

“The perfumes you have created have been evaluated, and now we will announce the results.”

Freya and Brisa stood among the crowd, and without turning around, Freya could feel many eyes staring at her back, with mocking and sneering voices constantly entering her ears.

“Freya will definitely be eliminated this time, right?”

“Nonsense. If she’s not eliminated, then who will be?” a woman mocked, her voice sharp.

Helga heard the mocking laughter and glanced at Freya, feeling somewhat proud.

See, this is the consequence of refusing my help. Did Freya really think she could pass the first round with her own abilities? thought Helga, and a smile appeared on her lips.

Next was the time for the staff to read the list. Everyone on the list would be eliminated.

As the names were read one by one, everyone was waiting for Freya’s name to appear, but it never did.

Everyone was puzzled.

“What’s going on? Could there be something fishy about this competition? Why wasn’t Freya eliminated?”

“How could there be something fishy in the competition? Wouldn’t that ruin their reputation?”

“It seems that Freya really made it through, but how did she manage to create a perfume?”

Amidst the discussions, all the eliminated contestants were announced, and half of the people had to leave.

Some were unwilling, some cried out in pain, and some were determined to come back next year. Each person had a different expression.

Freya stood still, her expression still calm. The organizing committee staff glanced at Freya and nodded with satisfaction.

The staff continued, “Next, we will proceed with the room selection. In order to be fair, we will use the rankings from this top 50 preliminary round as a reference. The first-place winner will choose a room first, followed by the second, third, and so on until the fifty- second place. Do you understand?”

The contestants nodded and said they understood, so the staff began to read out the list.

Helga’s face instantly became proud. Among the contestants this time, although there were many outstanding ones, she had obtained in advance the theme of “First Love” through some means!

She had studied for a month and created a perfume with a bitter chrysanthemum scent, wit a lingering taste of bitterness and a hint of citrus sweetness, which was very suitable for the theme “First Love.”
