Chapter 571:
Khloe hadn't just recited it—she had done so perfectly.
Additionally, as Khloe recited the challenging passages from the book, her words cout clear and smooth.
Even Sheri’s surprise was impossible to hide.
Did Khloe truly have a photographic memory?
It seemed unfathomable.
As the crowd hung in stunned silence, Khloe abruptly stopped reciting. “Etta, you've lost.”
The moment Khloe finished speaking, the others exchanged stunned glances, their disbelief written across their
faces. Etta, in particular, looked as though the ground had been pulled out from under her. Her earlier confidence
had vanished, leaving her pale and drenched in cold sweat.
In that instant, Etta recalled Khloe’s warning before the competition had begun. It hit her like a cruel truth—this
was a battle she had been fated to lose from the very beginning.

match to Khloe? Did you setup to look like a fool?”
Etta’s voice was hoarse and broken. “If only | had thrown it. But | didn’t. | gave it everything | had.”
The admission seemed to drain the last of Etta’s composure. Her earlier arrogance crumbled as she sank into her
chair, her eyes unfocused and dazed. The others now felt uneasy.
Etta was renowned for her intellect and extensive reading, yet even she had lost despite her best efforts. The
only explanation was that Khloe truly possessed a photographic memory.
The implications were unsettling. With such a gift, Khloe could master skills and knowledge far faster than most,
turning what seemed like a sure bet into an unpredictable game.
Though her anger simmered beneath the surface, Naomi forced herself to acknowledge the loss. She scoffed,
“Fine. You can have this round. Call it luck if you want. But don’t forget—there are three more rounds left. Unless
you win them all, you're still a loser.” Her words carried more defiance than belief, as though she was trying to
convince herself more than anyone else.

Sheri’s unease flickered briefly before her mind settled. Surely Khloe couldn't defeat all of the four talented
competitors. With that comforting thought, her panic eased, replaced by a wary calm.
Then, Khloe’s lips curled into a confident smile, her presence radiating an undeniable authority. “You will lose. |
will win.”
After hearing Khloe's bold declaration, both Sheri and Naomi instinctively wanted to mock her for being
delusional. But as their eyes locked with Khloe’s composed gaze, unease crept in.
“Let’s move on to the next competition. It's a piano performance. You'll be going up against Letty. That's fine,
isn’t it?” Naomi asked, her tone laced with certainty.
Recitation might test memory, but the piano required skill—technical precision and artistry. Even those with
natural talent couldn't excel without years of disciplined practice.
Khloe had been cast out of her family at a young age and had even spent several years behind bars. Her life had
been a constant struggle for survival, leaving no room for luxuries like learning to play the piano—a skill so often

Gloria clenched her fists. The Dayton family was clearly going too far, but the bet was already in motion.
Knowing Khloe’s chances were slim, she could only stand by and watch as the competition unfolded, her glare
filled with barely contained anger.
Letty caught sight of Gloria's silent frustration and let out a sigh of relief. Khloe couldn't possibly know how to
play the piano.
Six tall bodyguards entered the garden, carrying a gleaming custom piano. They carefully set it down on the
level ground at the center of the space.
