Comeback Of The Adored Heiress
Chapter 190

In such a contest, anything but a high placement would likely lead to mockery back home.

The pressure mounted.

Kristine grew increasingly nervous, and sleep became elusive.

By two in the morning, she was still awake, restlessly turning in bed.

Unable to sleep, she rose and decided to go for a walk.

As she stepped out of her room, she noticed a light shining in the living room.

Driven by curiosity, she approached and caught sight of someone dancing with grace in front of the large window.

The dancer executed each move flawlessly, a level of perfection Kristine knew she could never match.

The complex steps seemed to come naturally to the dancer.

Even alongside a former international champion, Madisyn would hold her own.

Kristine turned pale, her hand tightening on the handrail.

A thought consumed her.

If Madisyn won the championship and she failed to place in the top ten, Madisyn would steal the spotlight once again, leaving her in the shadows.

Was it even worth competing?

Her thoughts swirled in chaos, and she didn’t realize how long she had been watching until Madisyn ceased dancing and noticed her.

Madisyn showed little reaction, as if Kristine was merely another face in the crowd, and walked upstairs.

As Madisyn walked past, Kristine made a sudden move and fell down the stairs!

Blood quickly pooled on the stark white floor.

Madisyn’s expression tightened as she hurried back downstairs.

Just then, a servant walked into the room and upon witnessing the scene, screamed out loud, “Ahhh!”

The scream pierced the stillness of the villa, waking everyone.

That night, Kristine was swiftly taken to the hospital.

Everyone at home rushed to the hospital with her.

They were stunned to learn that Kristine had taken a serious fall down the stairs.

It wasn’t until the early morning hours that Kristine began to come around.

Spotting the bandages enveloping her, she panicked.

“Mom, what happened to me?”

Elaine’s face was sad as she replied, “You fell down the stairs.

You’ve hurt your leg badly and will need to rest a lot.

It looks like you won’t be able to participate in the international competition.
