Daddy! Come Home for Dinner! - Chapter 488

Chapter 488: Chapter 488: I Promise You

If she insists on watching the recorded video, and once the camera didn’t capture the incident, she would have to withdraw from the competition voluntarily.

No one knows whether the incident was captured on camera or not.

So, she faces a fifty percent risk of withdrawing from the competition.

If she doesn’t dare to take that risk, she has to admit defeat now and pretend nothing ever happened.

No, it’s not possible to pretend nothing ever happened.

Because she has already said it.

Once she backs down, Iris Doone will definitely demand an apology.

Stubbornly insisting will only cause Cindy Clarke to be the one looked down upon.

By then, Cindy Clarke will be the lowlife slandering Iris Doone.

Moreover, slandering Iris Doone unsuccessfully would only disgrace herself.

At a moment like this, Iris Doone could still come up with a desperate gambit; Cindy Clarke truly admires her for that.

However, everything that Iris Doone thought of, Cindy Clarke also considered.

“Alright, I agree,” said Cindy Clarke resolutely.

At this moment, Iris Doone was completely stunned.

She thought Cindy Clarke would be scared.

Surely, even Cindy Clarke wouldn’t dare to risk withdrawing from the competition!

Who’d have known, Cindy Clarke actually agreed without even hesitating!

Is Cindy Clarke absolutely sure the incident will be captured on video?

Now, Iris Doone becomes even more uncertain.

From Cindy Clarke’s performance, she seemed very confident, as if she’s certain to catch Iris Doone.

Iris Doone couldn’t help but avert her gaze and lower her eyes, growing anxious.

Not only the other contestants and the audience, but even the five judges were stupefied.

In fact, they thought that at least Cindy Clarke would hesitate.

However, Cindy Clarke didn’t even waver and insisted on watching the video.

Those spectators who initially sided with Iris Doone and felt Cindy Clarke was being excessive.

They began to waver again.

Doubts emerged in their minds.

Cindy Clarke appeared so confident; it seems she must have some evidence.

Otherwise, she would have to withdraw from the competition!

Comparing an apology to withdrawing from the contest, the latter is clearly more serious.

If Cindy Clarke had no evidence, just apologising and enduring extra accusations wouldn’t be a big deal!

Winning the competition would bring more.

For these reasons, most people believed that bearing verbal criticism was worth it.

Cindy Clarke didn’t care how panicked or guilty Iris Doone felt.

She directly asked the judge, “Judge, can I request to see the video from the food storage room?”

“You can.” Wesley Gordon nodded.

Since the matter concerns the fairness of the competition, there’s nothing to consider.

“However, even if we do retrieve it, reviewing the video will take time. We’re broadcasting live at the moment, so we cannot stop the broadcast and let the audience watch the video review process and wait for the result with us.” Wesley Gordon said.

Cindy Clarke nodded, “I understand. The staff will have to review the video, and the result can be announced after the competition ends.”

The crowd was surprised.

By then, the competition would be over, would the outcome still matter?

What’s the significance of knowing the results?

Even if it’s proven to be Iris Doone or someone else.

Their competition would be over.

Would they withdraw from the next round after winning this one?

Cindy Clarke seemed to have guessed everyone’s thoughts.

She confidently smiled and announced, “I don’t need any promise from Iris Doone; if it’s proven to be her, she will volunteer to withdraw.”

“Oh?” Wesley Gordon looked at Cindy Clarke in surprise.
