Landing on Her Heart: Mr. Warner, Let's Get Back Together!-Chapter 180: This Mother and Daughter Are Elias’s Obstacles

Chapter 180: Chapter 180: This Mother and Daughter Are Elias’s Obstacles

The two looked up and saw Elias Warner standing in front of them.

"Annelise, why are you taking Luna?"

"I found Luna here, heard her crying, so I came to see. She said she wanted to find her dad!"

Annelise remained calm.

"Find her dad? Are you referring to me? But I’m not her dad. You should know better than me who her dad really is!"

Annelise immediately covered Luna’s ears.

Earlier, Luna was already upset about being abandoned by her dad, and now hearing Elias say this, who knows how much more upset she’ll be.

She hurriedly covered Luna’s ears.

"Elias Warner, what do you mean by saying this in front of such a small child?"

"My meaning is clear. I’m not the child’s dad. Since the child has a father, and her father is right by her side, why not take her to see her real dad?"

Annelise frowned.

Completely unclear about Elias Warner’s meaning.

"Crazy!" Annelise picked up Luna, ready to leave the terrace.

"Uncle Ford, bring the child here!" Elias Warner said to Uncle Ford standing behind him.

Uncle Ford stepped forward, snatching Luna from Annelise’s arms.

"Elias Warner, what are you doing? You’re going to hurt the child this way!"

Annelise felt very sorry for Luna.

"Anyway, she’s not your child. What? You’ve become emotionally attached?"

Elias Warner probed.

Annelise seemed to realize Elias Warner was testing her.

Suppressing her concern for Luna, she quickly said, "You’re right, then I’ll leave now!"

Annelise left the terrace without looking back.

Elias Warner frowned as he watched Annelise’s departing figure.

This woman is still pretending.

He wanted to see how long she would keep up the act.

Annelise returned to the annual party venue.

Chloe Joyce also walked over.

Seeing Annelise, she quickly asked, "What’s up, Annelise? Where did you go? You were just here, and then you disappeared. I couldn’t find you anywhere."

"Nothing, I just went out for some air."

Annelise replied.

"Annelise, you weren’t around earlier, I thought maybe you didn’t dare to compete and fled, waiting to see you kneeling to June."

Eve Carter said.

"How could Annelise possibly retreat? What a joke. Honestly, if anyone should bow out with clear awareness, it should be June Winter!"

Chloe Joyce remarked.

Annelise frowned. The situation was getting more complicated than she had predicted.

She felt a bit anxious.

Earlier, based on what Luna said, Renee Perry must’ve already discovered her.

If Renee Perry indeed realized something, Luna might be in danger.

She needed to counteract it quickly.

Suddenly, her eyes lit up. Maybe this selection of a spokesperson for Kybourne South Air was a very good thing for her.

After all, the spokesperson for Kybourne South Air is bound to have some influence in the entire circle.

At that time, if Renee Perry really wants to do something to Luna, she’d need to consider this reason carefully.

"Let June Winter do her worst, I’m right here waiting for her!"

Annelise said.

Chloe Joyce didn’t expect Annelise to say something like this.

Annelise always played the role of someone who didn’t fight or compete.

Today, Annelise seemed a bit different.

Outside the annual party

Renee Perry limped out of the venue.

Still contemplating the events that just transpired.

The kid Elias Warner was holding, it was truly astounding.

The child looked extraordinarily similar to Elias Warner.

Uncle Gene followed Renee Perry, staying silent.

The impact Elias Warner brought today, left Uncle Gene unable to find calm for a long time.

His madam must be feeling the same.

"Go investigate that child!" Renee Perry suddenly turned around, her eyes full of shock.

"Which child? Madam, are you talking about the one that ran into you just now?"

Uncle Gene was astonished, since when did his madam start holding grudges against a child?

Could it be...?

He was instantly shocked as well.

Because he and Renee Perry both thought of the child’s appearance.

And the striking resemblance to Elias Warner.

"But didn’t Elias say that the child is not his?" Uncle Gene pointed out.

"Elias is still too naive. The child obviously can be recognized, it’s clearly his child. Keep an eye on them. I suspect the child’s mother is Annelise!"

Renee Perry’s eyes were cold.

She couldn’t believe Annelise dared to defy her.

"Make sure to keep a close watch on the mother and daughter. They must not become stumbling blocks for Elias!"

"Understood, madam!"

The annual party

The selection for Kybourne South Air’s spokesperson has already begun.

Elias Warner saw Annelise’s name on the list and frowned.

He hadn’t seen Annelise actively participating in company activities for a long time.

These years have almost made her forget that she was once a socialite heiress.

"President Warner, should this Annelise Winter be directly eliminated? Everyone here participating is a socialite, Annelise she..."

Among them, Sean Carter, one of the managers responsible for talent selection, spoke.

"When did I teach you to judge a person’s ability by their background?"

Elias Warner glared at Sean Carter.

"But, the rumors about her having a child out of wedlock..."

The reason Sean Carter thought this way was also because of Annelise Winter’s recent bad reputation.

An even worse name.

"Enough, our Kybourne South Air never listens to rumors, we only look at individual ability!"

"Yes, President Warner!"

Sean Carter muttered, "I really don’t understand what the president is thinking, letting Annelise compete, it’s simply a waste of everyone’s time. Forget it, Annelise will probably be eliminated in the first round of the talent competition!"

So Sean Carter didn’t cross out Annelise Winter’s name from the list.

The competition began, a total of five judges voting. Each judge represents ten points.

The audience at the scene also held tickets in their hands, each ticket representing one point, the one with the most votes in the end gets first place.

There are two rounds of competition.

First round: Talent showcase

Second round: Skill showcase including language and expertise.

The contestants are staff from all companies under Kybourne South Air, with a total of one hundred participants.

The initially selected one hundred people will undergo the first round of elimination, with ten remaining advancing.

Competition begins

June Winter is the first participant, her performance is a piano presentation.

As the piano play started, the crowd began discussing.

"Wow, June’s piano skills really reach Grade 10 level, it’s truly exceptionally good!"

"Yeah, it sounds amazing!"

The judges gave a good score of forty points, among the audience of five hundred, four hundred and fifty were in favor of June Winter.

With such a good result coming out, the crowd talked.

"Wow, we might as well not continue, it’s clear that the ultimate winner will certainly be June!"

"Indeed, who can compete with such a score, it’s too hard to chase after!"

"Exactly, forget it, I’d rather not embarrass myself, I won’t go up!"

A few contestants following June Winter’s place in line directly withdrew from the race.

Eventually, June Winter advanced directly to the finals.

Finally, it’s Annelise Winter’s turn.

The crowd began to discuss.

"So many people have self-awareness, they all withdrew after seeing June’s score, what does Annelise think she’s doing? A fake heiress, truly laughable, what talent could she possibly showcase? June’s piano even won a national award!"

"Seriously, can Annelise even play multiple tunes? Daring to come to the competition!"

Amidst the discussions, Annelise Winter walked towards the stage and bowed to the crowd.

"Get down, get down, a person with a sullied name dares to compete here, isn’t that shameful enough!"

"Yeah, get down, get down!"

The crowd murmured.

"Silence, this time the image ambassador is solely based on ability, as for personal matters, we are not in a position to inquire, everyone do not believe in rumors, if anyone can produce evidence of Annelise having a child out of wedlock, then we will directly let Annelise withdraw from the race!"

The host’s words made the crowd shut their mouths.

Everyone spread such rumors, but there was no evidence.

June Winter stood among the crowd, trembling with anger.

Evidence, she had it, but it involved Chase Perry, she couldn’t ruin her marriage just for competing for an image ambassador.

She could only stand in the crowd and dared not speak.

Annelise Winter started her piano performance.

As soon as the tune sounded, the crowd quieted down.

"My God, these piano skills are comparable to international maestro Ronan Carter, oh my God!"

"Yes, it was played so well."

In the midst of the crowd’s compliments, Annelise suddenly stood up, danced gracefully beside the piano, playing and dancing at the same time.

This made the crowd marvel.

"My God, the dance is really good too, ballet with piano solo! Dancing and playing at the same time, and still playing the piano so well, my God!"

The crowd broke into applause.

"Annelise! Annelise! Annelise!"

The crowd chanted.

The final voting results.

Annelise scored fifty points from the judges and four hundred eighty points from the audience, achieving first place.

June Winter grinded her teeth in anger.

Eve Carter stood up for June Winter.

"June, that Annelise can actually dance and play piano? This must be cultivated by the Winter family, she’s actually a traitor, using abilities cultivated by the Winter family to compete with you, the true Winter heiress, for the image ambassador!"

"Humph, be proud all she wants, isn’t there still expertise and skills? I can speak three languages, I just don’t believe it, Annelise knows anything!"

June Winter knew that when Annelise was driven out of the Winter family, she was only twenty years old, she didn’t even have the opportunity to go abroad, how could she know foreign languages, it was later after being driven out by Renee Perry, she went abroad.

Probably only has the ability to work menial jobs to earn money, where would she have the time to learn foreign languages!

"Yes, June, in the next competition, you must beat Annelise thoroughly!"

Eve Carter eagerly believed that June Winter will certainly take first place and become the image ambassador.

The second round of the competition started

The remaining ten people began to be challenged by foreign experts invited by the group.

Answer questions about flight medicine and other related knowledge of aircraft.

June Winter began, she used three languages alternately to answer the expert judges’ questions.

Ultimately she achieved an excellent score of ninety-eight points.

"God, my God, June is too amazing, not only is she good at foreign languages, but she knows so much industry knowledge!"

"June, I’m here to congratulate you in advance, you’ll definitely be first place!"
