Chapter 805
The music began to fill the air, and Elliana immediately lost herself in the familiar rhythm.
The dance started gently, with soft, flowing movements that gradually grew stronger and more passionate.
In those opening moments, the melody was sweet and tender, and Elliana’s body moved like water—graceful and smooth. As the lead dancer, she transformed into something magical on stage, like a beautiful flower fairy dancing among her fellow performers, captivating everyone who watched.
“Oh my god, Lilah is gorgeous!”
“Ublento Medical University really brought their A-game this year. This Lilah girl is absolutely breathtaking.”
“No kidding. Someone with a face like that could walk straight into the film and television industry and make millions without even trying. She’s got that kind of natural beauty.”
Whispers of amazement spread through the student section like wildfire. Trinity sat fuming in the crowd. Each word of praise aimed at Lilah was another twist of the knife.
Chloe shot dirty looks at the students around her and let out a harsh laugh. “You’re all getting carried away, aren’t you? Calling Lilah beautiful when nobody’s even seen what she really looks like. For all we know, she could be hideously disfigured under that veil.”
Mindy jumped in with a voice full of fake sweetness that barely masked her spite. “That’s right! Everyone keeps praising her beauty, but what if she takes off that veil and turns out to be so awful-looking that it makes you sick?”
The people sitting nearby bristled at Chloe’s and Mindy’s comments.
Nasty comments lingered in the air, but they couldn’t shake the seed of doubt that had been planted. The conversation began to take a different turn. Newest update provided by find?novel.net

“They have a point, though. Nobody’s actually seen what Lilah looks like under there.”
“Come on, though—look at how she moves, how graceful she is. Someone like that can’t be completely unfortunate in the looks department, right?”
“Hard to say. Sometimes life’s cruel like that. Maybe having such an incredible body means her face didn’t get the same treatment.”
“That’s ridiculous. Plenty of celebrities are gorgeous from head to toe.”
“True. But there’s really no way to settle this debate. We’d have to see her face to know for sure.”
“Speaking of which, why does she always cover up anyway?”
Chloe’s eyes lit up—this was exactly the opening she’d been waiting for. She leaned forward with a cruel smile. “Isn’t it obvious? She’s hiding something terrible. Women always show off their best features and cover up their flaws. If she’s too ashamed to let anyone see her face, it’s because there’s something seriously wrong with it.”
Her reasoning was warped, but it caught people off guard, and no one could immediately argue back.
Mindy sensed the moment and pushed harder, adding fuel to the fire. “So basically, Lilah hides behind a mask, basks in all this attention that came with the Campus Beauty title, and everyone just goes along with it? She’s playing you all. Open your eyes—she’s fooling every one of you.”
