Chapter 173 Revealing the Truth
When Annaid eyes on my artwork, envy shed across her face.
She realized that with the debut of my artwork "Twin Souls, her imitation of my painting would inherentlyck some of its essence. Whether in technique or concept, she was miles behind.
The majority of the artworks she had taken from me were made during my lowest moments, giving them a somber, shadowy tone.
The piece I created at that moment outshone every other work.
Even Sadie, known for her fragile mental strength, couldn''t finish her own painting.
She stared at mine in disbelief, softly muttering, "This can''t be... How could you, such a useless person, create such a work ofant?"
Kate''s face also darkened, clearly taken aback that I had outshone her gifted daughter.
The people who had once backed Anna began to shift their opinions.
didn''t expect Fake S''s painting to be so striking. It''s truly impressive."
"I can''t quite exin it, but while Ms. Sander''s work is cohesive, it feels lifeless. On the other hand, Fake S% ck water lilies truly capture the spirit of S. "I feel the same way!"
Those who had once ridiculed me now began to offer their praise, and the mood in the room lightened considerably.
After the judges tallied their scores and the audience votes were counted, I secured first ce, leaving Anna far behind in second..
Even Anna''s most loyal fans had no objections to the oue, as my skill was impossible to ignore.
Though Kate was visibly disappointed, she acknowledged that second ce was still a respectable result. and she kept trying to find ways to spin it positively.
Fiona expressed her dissatisfaction, "What kind of genius are we talking about? She waspletely outshined by someone else.
Kate replied, "You can''t say that. Anna has been dealing with some personal issuestely, and that has affected her mood. That''s why she didn''t win. Still, second ce is a silver medal."
Fiona scoffed. "In this world, only the winner is remembered. Do you even recall who took home the silver and bronze medals in thest Olympics? People only care about the best, the record-breakers." Before Kate could respond, I rose to my feet.
The host called on me to speak, and I took the microphone, offering a subtle smile to both the audience in front of me and those watching the live broadcast.

The moment the words left my mouth, the entire hall was instantly captivated, eager to hear the gossip.
The host asked, "Whose wish are you here to fulfill?"
I spoke with rity, taking my time, "The real
At that moment, both Anna and the audience were struk with shock and a murmur of confusion spread through the crowd.
"What does she mean by the real 5? Is she admitting she''s the fake one?"
"Hold on, isn''t the real S supposed to be Ms. Anna Sancer? And she''s on stage right now? What''s going on here? I don''t quite get it."Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org.
The host quickly responded to my remark. "There was big debate online about S before, with some iming you''re pretending to be S. Is this the reason you''re here today, to clear things up? "Yes, I''m not S. The real S has been passed away for a long time.
The crowd below erupted in confusion, murmurs filling the air as people exchanged thoughts. Anna'' hands gripped her dress tightly, seemingly aware of what I was about to reveal.
But it was toote for her to back out now!
If she had stepped back sooner, she wouldn''t be facing this public exposure on stage now. Who knows how long I''ve been waiting for this moment.
I gripped the microphone firmly and pressed on. The true S is Ms. Chloe Sander from the Sanders. The woman you all know as Ms. Anna is nothing more than an imposter!"
Anna quickly retorted, "You''re making things up! Ms. Gardner, I know you''ve held a grudge against me ever since that video of yours leaked online, but making false ims in front of all these people-this is defamation, and I could sue you for it!"
"Ms. Sander, there''s no need to be anxious. Only falsehoods are rumors. Since I''m brave enough to stand here and expose the truth, I have all the proof ready. I''m simply seeking justice for the innocent Ms. Chloe. How could that be called spreading rumors?" I wasn''t nervous at all. In fact, I stayedpletelyposed. "It seems like you''re the one feeling uneasy, aren''t you? Are you worried I''ll reveal that all your artwork is stolen from Chloe''s creations? Even the painting you''re presenting today was made by Chloe?" A perfect kill!
Anna''s eyes widened in shock. She must be wondering how I, someone from the outside, could know such specific details, things only Chloe and she could know.
My careful nning took herpletely by surprise.
The hall exploded into whispers and chatter.
Kate, disregarding everything else, rushed to confront me on stage. "Everyone, don''t believe her lies! She''s

just envious of my daughter''s talent, and that''s why she spreading these false rumors! We all saw my daughter paint right here, but she''s iming it was Chr''s artwork. What a ridiculous im!"
"Yes, with so many people watching, where''s the fake?"
"But her painting skills are clearly superior to Anna''s. What''s there to be jealous of? Why do I feel like what she''s saying might actually be true?"
Anna''splexion went ashen, fully aware that losing today would destroy her reputation beyond repair.
She had reached a breaking point, with no option left at to press on.
"Ms. Gardner, one must stand by their words. If you cant back them up with proof, everything you''re saying is mere defamation! I have the right to sue you.
I chose to disregard her and shifted my attention to Kate. "Mrs. Sander, how well do you truly know your eldest daughter?"
"She''s my daughter; how could I not know her?"
I gave a slight smile, holding the microphone as I casually began, "Would you all like to hear a story? There was once a naive young girl born into a rich family, gifted with an incredible talent for painting from an early age. But because her family wanted her to eventually take over the business, they dismissed painting as pointless, and she had to bury her passion deep within.
"One year, driven by a sudden impulse, she entered a paintingpetition under the alias ''S'' and donated all the prize money. Unexpectedly, her spontaneous act earned her arge following online. Despite her busy schedule, she made sure to share a new artwork once a year to keep her fans happy, sometimes even donating the profits to charity,
"As more and more people admired her, she couldn''t pursue painting full-time. Her days were consumed by work, always trying to meet her family''s expectations, but no matter how hard she tried, she remained, unseen by both her family and her partner, leading her into a state of depression.
"The kind-hearted, yet naive girl, not wanting to weigh down her family, isted herself in the basement, pouring her heart into her art. She created a collection of dark, powerful paintings as a way to heal herself.
"But one day, an unfortunate ident took her life. She never had the chance to meet her fans, and she left this world forever.
At this point, tears streamed down Luke''s face as he sat in the audience.
