The Luna Choosing Game by Jane Above Story Novel
Chapter l218

Chapter 0218 

I was exhausted but I complied, changing into a simple dress and then heading downstairs. When I saw 

Susie standing in the back of the room, I immediately went to her side. 

Most of the girls assumed Nathan was soon to announce the next event for the competition, and so 

there was much speculation about what that event could be. 

“Maybe it will be a beauty contest,” Olivia said, fl*pping her gorgeous hair. 

“It could be trivia,” said Jessica. She looked excited by the prospect. “We could have teams, and -” 

“What about a horse race,” Tiffany said. “Some kind of show of our horse-riding capability.” 

Nathan headed to the stage in the room. He didn’t have a microphone this time. With only eight of us in 

the room now, he could be clearly heard just by his speaking up. 

“The next event will be…” he said. 

The room took a breath: 

“A fundraising gala.” 

Tiffany and Jessica’s shoulders slumped. Olivia seemed indifferent. 

Nathan continued, “Each candidate will have her chance to pitch her own cause to a ballroom full of 

potential benefactors. The princes who chose you may offer you help as you work the room.” 

Olivia and Lilliana looked sharply at each other, before slicing their hard gazes to me.  S~ᴇaʀᴄh the Findɴovel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“As Luna, you would be required to know how to subtly win others to your side through careful words, 

and the perfect dance. We will expect to see your abilities in action on this night.” 

Some of the girls nodded. I did too/It made sense. The Luna was a ba stion of diplomacy – and raising money for her causes. The person set to take her place should share in the same skills. 

“At the end of the evening,” Nathan said, “the benefactors themselves will decide who to support. The 

candidate who has earned the most support will be declared the winner of the event. All of the benefactors will be donating real funds, so you will be working both for yourself and for the benefit of your 

cause.” 

I knew at once who I would support: the orphanage. I had returned with Elva a few times since my last being there with Nicholas. The caretakers did their best, but those kids could only stand to gain from 

more financial support. 

I looked to Susie. “What cause were you thinking?” 

She said at once, “There’s an animal shelter back home that I want to support.” 

I was not shocked in the slightest by her response. Susie seemed to prefer the company of animals 

most times. 

“I think it’s a great cause,” I told her, smiling. 

When the announcements were over and I turned to leave the parlor, I noticed Lilliana near the door, speaking with the head of the guard, Joseph. They seemed to be in a deep conversation, Lilliana talking, 

while Joseph nodded severely. 

I wanted to avoid them, but they were standing along the hallway I needed to walk through. I wouldn’t 

be intimidated from simply walking back to my room. 

Keeping my head up, tall and proud, I walked down the hallway. I avoided looking at them for a while, but when I noticed their sudden silence, I couldn’t help but glance at them. 

I immediately wished I hadn’t. 

They were both glaring at me. 

“Don’t worry,” Joseph said to Lilliana. “I’ll take care of this.” He cast me one last hate-filled look and 

then stormed away. 

Lilliana, meanwhile, walked closer to me. 

“Hello, Lilliana,” I said, hoping to bridge a truce before she could finish stirring whatever drama she had 

planned for this time. 

I was too late, it seemed. 

Lilliana’s demure façade cracked. She openly frowned at me as she snapped, “I know what you are 

doing, and you won’t get away with it.
