Chapter 504 - Five Hundred And Four: What Just Happened? (2/2)

”Six....! ”

Her blood throbbed, they were chanting her name. It made her feel good. Was this what it feels like to be on the top because it was so satisfying.

”Five...! ”

”Four...! ”

Gosh, victory was on her side.

”Three...! ”

Anabelle was on top of the world. For once, she was not going to be a loser.

”Two....!”

She shut her eyes, putting the last bite into her mouth. The victory was hers and now her name would be shouted high.

”One....!”

The whole crowd went into a frenzy, excitement in the air. It was a tough match.

But wait a minute, why weren't they chanting her name, or was this the delay before the dramatic round of applause. Anabelle opened her eyes to see what was going on when she heard,

”Jordan! Jordan! Jordan!”

Huh, who was Jordan?

But then her eyes suddenly widened and Anabelle turned to her boyfriend. Jordan was the fake name Julie had given to them so as not to blow his cover.

Anabelle was rooted to the ground, the once celebratory smile of her pending victory frozen in place while her heart felt like it had been stabbed with a knife. Did he win instead of her?

”Huh?” was Julie's shocked response when the crowd began to cheer him. What just happened? Did he win?

All Julie knew was that he had been trying to devour all of his food before the time was up - they would be stopped whether the hotdog and buns were finished or not. Since the universe has provided free food for him, why shouldn't he take advantage of the whole thing?

That had been Julie's thought, who knew he would beat..... Oh no. It finally dawned on him who his competitor was and he glanced up to meet her hurt expression.

Oh God, he hadn't meant to win but he had been too immersed in his eating to notice.

”And now, we have the winner of our -”

”Anabelle!” Julie called after his furious girlfriend who took off to God knows where.

”Sit down,” Isabella commanded Pedro who had stood to go after her.

”What?” Pedro shot a displeased frown at her cold attitude. She knew this would happen and yet intentionally kept quiet. By the way, how was she able to predict the outcome? He was beginning to get scared of her.

”This is a fight between couples, do not interfere,” was her warning.
