Miss Soudou realized that her chances were gone, and she felt dejected in her heart. Although she was unwilling to admit it, she knew deep down that Cherish Turner was indeed better than her. She couldn't deceive herself. Whether it was the last piece, which was accused of plagiarism, or this one, Cherish had beaten her.
Although the official result of the competition hadn't been announced yet, everyone knew what it would be. Many journalists began to eagerly interview Cherish after her three-minute self-introduction, for example, asking if she would consider staying in Japan after the study was completed, if there would be any collaboration with Mr. Tanigawa, and so on.
Cherish didn't answer these questions one by one because it was still too early to say any specifics.
As for her, she would naturally return to her home country; she wasn't going to stay in Japan. She came here to study, but her heart was set on going home.
