Chapter 229: Chapter 229: Almost Brainwashed

Adrian Zhekova looked at Zoe Silverstone, his expression a mix of a smile and subtle mockery: "Miss Silverstone, the major competition has made an exception just for you this time."

Everyone: "..."

It didn't sound like a good thing at all.

Zoe Silverstone: "..."

Could the situation be the same as with Cindy Clarke?

Adrian Zhekova kept saying they made an exception for her, but she couldn't feel happy about it.

"How do you want to prove it?" Adrian Zhekova asked Cindy Clarke again.

Cindy raised her head to look at him and saw Adrian nodding at her.

In front of so many people, Adrian couldn't show any particular favoritism towards Cindy.

He couldn't even afford to give her a gentle smile, as he had to hold back because of his concerns.

If he did, it would confirm the suspicion of Cindy getting in through the back door.

But in reality, Cindy had made it this far on her own merit.
