Chapter 129
"Mis... Misunderstanding?" Nathan finally digested the words. He stared at Curtis with his eyes wide open.
"Indeed, the previous invitation letter was a misunderstanding. Just forget about it," Curtis explained patiently, "The person I wanted to invite was not Yuliana, but your other granddaughter." The statement was already made very clear.
Yuliana had a glimmer of hope initially, but now it has been completely shattered.
Her face turned pale instantly, and her eyes widened but lost their luster.
It seemed as if she was going to plummet from the sky to the depths of an inferno in a moment.
"How could this happen?" Yuliana's mind went completely blank.
She was once so excited and thrilled, but now she is equally desperate and embarrassed.
Moreover, it was so shameful.
Everyone thought that she was chosen by Curtis, but it turned out to be a big misunderstanding.
She didn't even catch Curtis' attention at all!
Mateo and Janet both looked at their daughter simultaneously, their expressions filled with mixed emotions.
"Yuli..." Mateo subconsciously called her.
Deep down, Mateo also felt ashamed.
It all turned out to be a misunderstanding.
Yuliana didn't even make it into the Starr Training Camp.
Thinking about their previous arrogant and boastful behavior, Mateo felt extremely embarrassed.
Janet bit her lips and didn't know what to say.
The mansion in Quakersville crossed her mind all of a sudden.
If it was all a misunderstanding, would Nathan still reward them with the mansion?
"If it's not Yuliana, then which one of my granddaughters is the talent that Mr. Johnson admires?" After a few seconds of adjustment, Nathan regained his composure from the earlier shock and bewilderment. He quickly realized that although the person chosen by Curtis was not Yuliana, she was still another one of his granddaughters...
In this way, it was somewhat acceptable.
Therefore, he eagerly spoke out his question.
Upon hearing Nathan's question, everyone instinctively cast their gaze toward Jennifer and Rachel.
They all deliberately ignored Oneida.
After all, in their minds, Oneida was just a country bumpkin studying in Regular Class at Imperial Star University. There was no way it could be her.
The probability of Jennifer and Rachel being chosen seemed much higher.
However, Rachel was young and still in high school, so the possibility was not very likely.
Based on this, it seemed that Jennifer was the most likely candidate.
Tatiana quickly turned her head to look at Jennifer, her eyes shining brightly.
She tightly clenched her fingers in anticipation.
If it turned out to be Jennifer... she would definitely be thrilled beyond words.

At this moment, Curtis stood up from his seat and walked slowly forward.
Under the gaze of everyone, he approached Oneida.
Oneida and Curtis locked eyes.
For a moment, no one spoke.
In fact, Oneida had a general guess in her heart.
Thinking of what happened before, it wasn't hard to guess who the "talent" Curtis referred to was.
"Oneida..." Curtis spoke first, breaking the silence. He smiled at Oneida, and his aged eyes seemed to sparkle with brightness. "I now officially invite you to join the Starr Training Camp..."
As he spoke, Curtis glanced towards his assistant not far away and commanded, "Bring it over."
The assistant nodded and handed over something prepared beforehand to Curtis.
Then, Curtis handed over the item to Oneida, saying, "This is a unique invitation letter that I wrote by hand. It's the first time I've written an invitation letter on my own in all the years of running the Starr Training Camp. Will you come?" He gazed at Oneida with shimmering eyes, his tone humble and friendly.
Curtis genuinely hoped that Oneida would accept the invitation.
In the past, there were some naturally proud and unruly geniuses who, despite receiving invitations from the Starr Training Camp, did not ultimately come.
Curtis was unsure if Oneida was also that kind of genius.
After all, geniuses are usually arrogant and conceited.
Oneida looked at Curtis in front of her, then glanced at the invitation letter in his hand.
She couldn't comprehend when and how Curtis had chosen her in the first place.
"Could it be because of that karate tournament?" Oneida thought.
Oneida didn't really think much of it, as karate was just one of the many talents she possessed that she didn't consider worth mentioning.
But Oneida was surprised that Curtis was able to confirm that she was eligible to be selected for the Starr Training Camp based solely on these factors. Oneida narrowed her eyes slightly.
In fact, Oneida was not interested in Starr Training Camp.
She didn't think that she needed any training.
However, at this moment, when she thought about Nathan's favoritism and insults, the shamelessness of Mateo's family, as well as Yuliana's deliberate provocation... She had to accept the invitation letter even if she wasn't interested.
Because it would be the ultimate irony and a slap in the face to that group of people.
"Alright." With this in mind, Oneida uttered the word lightly, then reached out her hand and accepted Curtis' invitation letter. "I'll go."
She finally agreed.
Curtis sighed with relief.
The members of the Chaser family, who had been observing the entire scene, were wide-eyed with astonishment, forgetting to even exhale.
Shocked, bewildered, angry, and unwilling... a myriad of intense emotions played out on the faces of the onlookers. Various kinds of thoughts rushed through their minds. "It was so ridiculous!"

Chapter 129
"How could it be Oneida?"
"The least remarkable and utterly incompetent person!"
"What did Curtis see in her?"
Nathan felt extremely embarrassed. He had just insulted her as a country bumpkin, but she turned around and got selected into the Starr Training Camp by Curtis.
Mateo's family couldn't even utter a word now.
Everything could only be labeled as humiliating and infuriating.
They had thought it would be Yuliana who would enter the Starr Training Camp, and bring glory and honor to the Chaser family. They had been feeling overly proud and complacent, but unexpectedly, a bucket of cold water was poured on them right on the spot. Oneida, the person who was always looked down upon, and the daughter of that good-for-nothing Lucas, was actually the one that Curtis had his eyes on.
Mateo and Janet really wanted to replace a hole to crawl into immediately, as if continuing to stand here was a humiliation and torment for them.
They were nothing but a laughingstock.
However, the one who was most impacted was actually Yuliana, who was directly involved in the incident.
This senseless misunderstanding directly turned her into a ridiculous figure, laughable and pitiable.
She had never been so heartbroken and embarrassed.
"Wasn't it supposed to be me? Why did it suddenly become Oneida?" Yuliana kept asking herself in her heart.
Yuliana forcibly resisted the urge to faint on the spot, standing there with a pale and miserable face, feeling extremely uncomfortable in her heart.
"Grandpa," at this moment, Oneida cast her gaze towards Nathan not far away, looking at him with a smile that wasn't quite a smile, "Since that's the case, what about the mansion in Quakersville?"
The meaning couldn't be more obvious.
Just now, Nathan promised to give the mansion in Quakersville to Mateo's family as a reward for Yuliana being selected for the Starr Training Camp.
And Lucas' family had to move out.
Now, everything was a misunderstanding. Oneida was the one who had been selected for the Starr Training Camp.
Of course, Nathan could no longer give this mansion to Mateo's family.
Oneida looked at Nathan with fiery eyes, as if waiting for his answer.
Mateo and Janet's faces darkened, and they involuntarily clenched their fists.
Nathan's eyes flickered, and he spoke slowly, "You can continue to live in this mansion... however, I have one request." SEND GIFT
