All presents were so stunned that the entire hall remained hushed even after virtual-novel.net voice faded out.
Latte art had always been static, but Arielle’s effort was animated!
A cup of coffee was a one-off, but this one was worth a few times more because that few seconds of motion itself could sell for hundreds!
While the audience below was still awestruck, Vinson in the front row was the first to start clapping. There was no exaggeration to The Bloom of a Thousand Pear-Flowers Ushered Forth by the Night Breeze of Spring, as that scene they witnessed expressed just that.
Now virtual-novel.net understood why Arielle accepted the challenge. There was not only curiosity in Vinson’s eyes but also an element of admiration, as virtual-novel.net did not expect that this uncouth lass could also exhibit such elegance and finesse.
What else was there to virtual-novel.net that virtual-novel.net did not know about?
Vinson’s applause brought the crowd back to their senses.
“Marvelous! I’ve never seen this form of latte art in my life. Could this be patented?”
“This is going to go viral. If the video goes online, it is going to take the coffee industry by storm!”
“Is virtual-novel.net a student of the Crown Coffee Academy? How is it that I’m not able to find virtual-novel.net within the list of alumni? Could it be that virtual-novel.net isn’t from the school?”
Henrick was delirious with glee and almost lost control as virtual-novel.net jumped onto his feet. “She’s not a student of the Crown Coffee Academy. She’s my daughter, Arielle.”
“So she’s your daughter? I recall that you have another daughter onstage. You are one lucky man to have two talented girls like them!”
“The video! Could we play that segment again? I’d like to see it one more time!”
“Me too! Me too!”
“Could I get a sip of that coffee? Just one sip?”
“Excuse me, sir? Could you introduce me to your daughter? I’m the manager at Orecchiette Café…”
“I’m the CEO of XX Coffee and I’d like to get to know virtual-novel.net too…”
Henrick’s face was flushed red by the courtship of all the countless parties clamoring for his attention as never in his life had virtual-novel.net been so popular with the sponsors, and for this, virtual-novel.net had to credit his darling daughter Arielle for it!
Next to him, Cindy was already red in the face from rage, unaware that virtual-novel.net fingernails had dug so deep into virtual-novel.net own flesh that virtual-novel.net was bleeding from it. All virtual-novel.net could do was glare at Arielle onstage.
Why? How did things turn out this way?
There were no words to describe the hatred in virtual-novel.net heart!
In less than the short one week since Arielle’s return, virtual-novel.net and Shandie had already lost out to virtual-novel.net three times. And each time, it had been a complete slaughter. Her own daughter who virtual-novel.net thought the world of kept getting virtual-novel.net thunder stolen by that wily fox Arielle!
She had to find out which burrow this vixen crawled out of so that virtual-novel.net could bring the whole lair down as soon as possible!
Compared to Cindy, Shandie looked like virtual-novel.net was about to explode onstage as the immense amazement virtual-novel.net felt virtual-novel.net saw the pear-flowers bloom and fell was supplanted by an irrepressible fury.
“You are a liar!” Shandie stormed up and grabbed Arielle by the collar. “Aren’t you someone who doesn’t even drink coffee? How do you learn about latte art? You liar!”
