Novel & Cerita The Prize By Julie Garwood

"The prize is mine through and through. When did it become yours? Does it have your name written on it?" Isla glared at me with wide, furious eyes. "You have no shame, Garland! I won that prize ticket, so of course it's mine! You pushed me into the river just so you could take it for yourself!" Felix perked up at once. "You all heard that! My wife said it herself—Faye Garland pushed her!" All eyes swung back to me. "What a wicked woman—willing to kill for money, and even coveting another woman's husband. She's beyond redemption."

Good for us. On the merits Nancy and I deserved the accounting/finance award because we had a solid study with spot-on results. But to the judges what made it extra worthy and really made us a lock for the grand prize was Nancy dealing with the rodent, compounded by the fact that Rick Jenson stood up and said nice things about us in public before our peers. Plus, as a presenter, Nancy was hot. So we won by a landslide at 4:00 on Tuesday, before any of the other Accounting/Finance papers were presented, taking the grand prize with all the reputation and the goodies ($5,000 cash and a journal submission) that went along with it. We may have deserved it, but getting what we deserved was more co

The winners were awarded their prizes along with their jewelry designer as it was a team effort. Adelle and Andreas introduced their jewelry designer and happily walked away with their prize money and the amount they won from the bids. Irene walked alone to the stage with an embarrassed expression. “Don’t tell me you designed your jewelry all by yourself?” The host asked feigning shock. “No… no…” Irene waved her hand with an embarrassed smile “My designer likes to remain anonymous.” “Yes. I can imagine the postal system being flooded with orders seeing the pulse tonight.” The host laughed as he gave the prize.

Jayson asked, "What competition?" "I'm so forgetful... I think it's a Math Olympiad or something. There was something about Miss Jent's report card and a prize too. The person who sent the prize said that Miss Jent did not attend the school ceremony, so he sent it here instead." "What stupid prize is that? It's nothing but trash," Hayson said disdainfully. Madelyn was used to Hayson belittling her, so she remained quiet and continued eating with her head down. Margaret continued, "No, Mr. Jent. The prize is a golden figurine. I think it's made of gold. It's very shiny and beautiful. I'll show you."

Suddenly she saw a large headline - [The Turquoise Award is back, the highest association in the international painting world is now inviting painters from all over the world for an online exhibition grand prize competition in order to unearth the talented artists]. She looked at the attractive prize money. Worthy of being the highest association, the first prize was worth as high as 3 million Phoenixfell dollars! Heloise had an idea immediately. "Did the little blighter get tired of staying in Hyacinth Garden before thinking of loitering out?" Reginald's low, magnetic voice suddenly sounded above her head. Startled, Heloise resisted the urge to look at his expression and continued to stare

Jewel smirked in return, loving how her mum had handled it. Pearl was an eighteen years old final year student of Elites Academy. She was one of the most loved student in her set and the Female Sport Prefect because of her athletic prowess and what not. Jewel was a sixteen years old girl which a very great imagination and an adventurous behavior. Unlike her sister, she wasn't into much athletics but was very good at high jump. She also had a very sharp tongue.

She noticed the rich spoiled princess gritting her teeth in annoyance and glaring daggers to the still glamorously smiling Maurice. Agatha furrowed her brows then looked away when she noticed no more abnormalities from Maurice. She focused once again to the contest and watched as it reaches the crowning part. She later joined the clapping crowd when the pretty senior named Delila Morison won. Sadly, Amanda didn't make it due to her low score in popular support which was fifty percent of the contestants' overall score. In the end, the one declared as the first runner up was Zendee Broe, the chief editor of the publication.

A particularly eye-catching figure soon entered her line of sight. The corners of Dimas’ lips curled up as he watched her calmly. His lips moved slightly as he silently mouthed a few words. Harmonia understood. He was saying—'Why are you so impressive, young lady?’ - The award ceremony began, and Mr. Parish personally presented the award. In addition to the trophy, there was a jade pendant produced from the old jade mine for the championship prize this year. It was a special prize for breaking the record! The audience buzzed with shock when the jade pendant was presented. It turned out to be top-grade green royal jade! One could see its amazing color even from a distance.

A whole mystery; that even though I wanted to explore and unravel, I knew I couldn’t. “I’m not very much aware of my mistakes here, but I’d very much love to be enlightened.” I shrugged. “Perhaps over a drink?” “Ah, yes.” She handed me a long gift bag, that revealed a wine bottle. “This does need to breathe, after all.” “What is this?” I frowned at her. “A bottle of wine,” she shrugged.

"No. There's nothing wrong with it. But just because something is expensive doesn't mean it's right for you." Lydia slowly leaned into the city, staring at Gwen blankly. "You seem to hold a grudge. A kind of guilt. There's nothing wrong with getting to the top, but... don't step on people doing so.

Gwen's pupils dilated at a visible rate, but Lydia didn't stop there.
