Chapter 152
Bam!
It was a loud noise. The venue was instantly plunged into silence. Everyone on and off stage looked at
Tara in surprise.
Sylvia could not help but snicker.
The next second, she felt a sharp gaze. It came from the middle of the first row in the audience, Odell. It
seemed that he was not happy that she laughed at Tara. Sylvia raised her brows at him.
‘I can laugh if I want to!’
Odell frowned, the look in his eyes growing cold and stern, but his eyes stared straight at her. His gaze
was somewhat scalding.
Sylvia was instinctively repulsed and withdrew her sight in annoyance.

swiftly regained her composure. She forced a smile and said, “My apologies. I slipped.”
The host hurriedly said, “It’s okay as long as you’re fine.”
Tara smiled stiffly and walked back to the podium.
Sylvia instantly saw that Tara’s hands were clenched by her sides. She said with a smile, “Tara, I know
that you’re excited to see me, but you don’t have to perform such an exaggerated greeting.”
Simon reacted, “Pfft…”
Jackson, the host, and the others also pursed their lips.
Tara’s face instantly turned ashen. She wanted to scold Sylvia. However, everyone present here was
famous people in the art world, and Odell was sitting right below.
She could only swallow her anger and give Sylvia a very forced smile. “I’m indeed surprised that you
were Sunflower, but I really only fell because I slipped.”
Sylvia raised her brows. “There’s no need to explain. I know.”
Tara was speechless. She was so angry that her face went red.
The host could obviously sense that Tara and Sylvia were at odds, but the award ceremony had to
continue. He quickly interrupted with a laugh. “I didn’t expect the winner of our Bronze Award today to
know who Sunflower is.”
Tara immediately squeezed out a warm smile as if she was very close to Sylvia Sylvia simply turned her
head and looked away indifferently, not even willing to give Tara a welcoming look The crowd was
speechless.
Most of the people were shocked. It was the first time they saw someone who dared to disregard Tara in
public. Some people who had long been displeased with Tara’s rise to power because of Odell
snickered.
Tara felt like her lungs were about to explode in anger. She glared at the host.

present the awards to our three winners.” According to the final order, Jackson went to the Silver Award
winner, Simon went to the Gold Award winner, and Sylvia was pushed to Tara. Sylvia laughed when she
saw how the obviously angry Tara was still maintaining a fake smile. “Didn’t you want me to give you the
award? Why do you look so unhappy?” Tara wanted to tear Sylvia’s face off. However, she forced herself
to smile, bent down to take the trophy from Sylvia, and gritted her teeth, saying in a low voice, “Don’t be
too complacent.” Sylvia laughed. “Heh.” The laugh was short and disdainful.
It was the laugh of someone standing on the top of the pyramid, looking down at worms who only knew
how to crawl on the ground.
Tara immediately clenched the trophy in her hand. Because of her anger, she could no longer suppress
the emotions in her heart, and her face turned red.
