My Dreamy Old Husband

Xyla strode toward Sophia deliberately. She said in a sweet voice, “Sophia, what a coincidence! You’re here for the competition too?”

Sophia turned around with her head lowered. “Yeah.”

“Good luck then. Richard and I will be watching you from below the stage.” Xyla walked away elegantly.

The competition began. Xyla used her sweet and pleasant voice to host the competition. “I hereby announce that the cash-counting competition begins now! Contestants, please take your place and get ready with your props!”

All the contestants took out their practice notes and placed them stack by stack on the table before getting ready to start the competition. Sophia opened her backpack and was about to take out her practice notes too, but the moment she opened her bag, she froze in shock. She didn’t take out the practice notes and simply sat there dumbstruck for a long while.

Noticing Sophia’s peculiar behavior, Xyla asked her in a ‘concerned’ manner. “Sophia, what’s the matter? The competition is about to begin. Hurry and take out your practice notes, or else you’ll be disqualified.”

Sophia kept staring into her own backpack for a long time. Finally, she decided to reach inside her bag, then she took out several stacks of notes and placed them on the table.

The moment she took out those notes, the whole place became silent. After a few seconds, waves of snickering could be heard coming from the audience, for the other contestants had taken out fake practice notes, while Sophia had taken out stacks of real banknotes!

The stacks of real cash were very eye-catching among the rest of the stacks of practice notes.

Sophia felt so embarrassed that she couldn’t bring herself to show her face in front of the audience. Because of the incident with Michael’s defamation, she had been out of sorts for the whole day. She started reading news when she woke up in the morning, so she mistakenly took the real cash stacks, which she used for training at home. She had placed them in her bag and ended up bringing them here.

She remained calm and unflustered by the situation while waiting for the competition to begin quietly.

This caught a group of supervising professors by surprise too. They had never seen someone actually use real banknotes as props to participate in the competition before! However, there were no rules that prohibited the usage of real cash, so after a round of discussion, the professors eventually decided that Sophia wasn’t going against the rules and the competition was to be continued as normal.

Xyla was dazed too before she let out a snicker.
