Chapter 371:
She locked eyes with Whitney and flashed a dazzling, almost mesmerizing smile. “Ms. Dayton, you're mistaken. |
am indeed quite shallow. I like Henrik exactly because he’s handsand impressive in bed.”
The venue fell deathly silent at Khloe’s bold comment about Henrik.
Could they really be hearing this right?
Henrik was known across the country not only for his striking appearance but also for his fiercely guarded private
life. A story circulated that a reporter who once snapped a photo of Henrik from behind saw their newspaper go
under the very next day.

Khloe’s candid comments on Henrik’s performance in bed were harshly out of place. Yet, as Henrik’s fiancée,
Khloe was perhaps the only one entitled to make such personal remarks.
Catching the astonished and somewhat disapproving looks from the audience, Khloe flashed a charming smile at
Whitney and said, “Ms. Dayton, I'm merely guilty of appreciating a good-looking man—a sentiment many women
share. You understand, don’t you?”
Before Whitney could respond, Eric burst out, unable to contain his outrage. “Khloe, be quiet! Your lack of dignity
is horrifying!” His rebuke hung heavily in the quiet air.
Khloe looked at Eric with a trace of derision, unshaken by his outburst. “Horrifying? Eric, you're hardly one to
talk. Have you wiped from your memory all those disgraceful acts of yours? At least I'm not like you, caught up
in an affair with Sloane.”
Khloe’s sharp counter left Eric red-faced with humiliation, while Sloane’s face soured as she clutched Eric's arm,
urging, “Eric, let it go. My sister knows how to cut deep. Don’t engage with her here. She's just spilled Henrik’s
secrets. Surely, the chief judge will scold her for it.”
Eric hesitated, weighing Sloane's advice, and then turned to Whitney expectantly. He hoped Whitney, who had
been tough on Khloe earlier, would scold her for her boldness.
To the astonishment of all present, Whitney paused, then chuckled. “It’s natural to be attracted to a man’s allure
and physique. Khloe, you should visitwith Henrik after the competition. Let's begin the competition now.”

The crowd was taken aback by Whitney's reaction. What did she mean by this? Was she approving of Khloe?
Could it be that Khloe was really on the path to marrying Henrik?
Sloane was equally startled. She had not anticipated Whitney's lenient approach. Hadn't there been whispers
that Whitney disapproved of Khloe? Watching Whitney handle the situation with such leniency, Khloe grew more
vigilant.

Whitney, Henrik’s aunt, was proving to be a formidable figure. Despite her provocative comments, Whitney
remained cool and unruffled, markedly different from her earlier confrontational stance. Clearly, Whitney's public
probing into Henrik and Khloe’s relationship was more of an evaluation. In reality, her past wrongdoings were not
Whitney's main concern, although Whitney had seemed overly concerned just moments ago. Any sign of
insecurity or faltering from Khloe would have given Whitney the cue to strike.
Whitney's strategic mind and unflappable nature were evident.
This visit might well be Whitney's method of verifying the sincerity of Henrik and Khloe’s engagement.
Although Khloe would rather not visit Whitney, circumstances left her no choice.
Just then, the staff signaled the beginning of the head-to-head experiment between the two teams.
As previously planned, Sloane’s team was up first to demonstrate their findings.
A lab assistant carefully placed a lab mouse on the table. Its fur was matted with blood, and it lay there weakly.
