Please help me prepare! Thank you! Besides, I would like to invite someone to come on stage and assist me with the performance.” Cecelia’s gaze began to scan the crowd, and when her eyes fell on Shepard, Shepard felt a sudden excitement in his heart. If Cecelia chose him to perform with her on stage, he might suggest that she perform something else. However, Cecelia’s gaze quickly moved away. The guys in the audience were all a bit excited, wondering who would be the lucky one chosen by her. Then Cecelia looked toward the front row and locked eyes with Remington. Remington instinctively furrowed his brow, wondering why Cecelia was fixing her eyes on him. Remington glanced at her, casually unscrewed a water bottle, and took a sip of his mineral water. Finally, Cecelia spoke up, “Let’s have Mr. Remington come up and help me out!” Upon hearing his name, Remington spat out water and thought, “Da*n it! This woman just meant it.” As soon as Cecelia finished speaking, the audience got excited again. Everyone suspected that Cecelia was trying to take this opportunity to reconcile with Remington. Remington stared daggers at Cecelia. Cecelia livened up the atmosphere. “Let’s give Mr. Remington the warmest applause as he takes the stage!” The crowd gave thunderous applause, and Remington had no choice but to take the stage. But he thought to himself, “Forget it. If she hands me the hammer, she should wish herself good luck.

With all the props in place, Cecelia announced to the crowd, “Good! Now, Mr. Remington, please lie down here!” Remington was taken aback and turned his head. He raised an eyebrow and stared at Cecelia, wondering what this woman was up tó. He thought to himself, “She wants me to lie down? Is she kidding?” The audience below suddenly became more excited and thought, “So, is she going to crush the boulder in someone else’s chest? Haha! It’s really out of our expectations. Did she choose Remington because she wants to take revenge on her ex-husband?” After realizing that Cecelia was going to crush a boulder in his chest, Remington became angry.
Suddenly, he felt like he had been tricked. “Mr. Nelson, please!” Cecelia smiled slightly. Remington was left speechless. If he had known that Cecelia was so tricky, he wouldn’t have added her name to the list and made her sing. It was like lifting a stone and hitting his own foot. Everyone in the audience was waiting for him to cooperate. Remington had no choice but to lie on the bench. The bench was not long enough, so he put his feet on the ground. Cecelia took out a scarf, shook it,
and then covered him with it. As the light scarf fell down and gently slid over his nose and chin. Remington smelled a faint fragrance. As she moved, Cecelia explains, “I’m putting a scarf underneath to avoid dirtying Mr. Nelson’s clothes. Come on! Please help me put. the boulder onto Mr. Nelson’s chest.” The boulder was quite heavy and required two men to lift it and put it in place. When the heavy boulder was put on Mr. Nelson’s chest, Cecelia asked in a concerned voice, “Mr. Nelson, how do you feel? Can you handle it?” Chapter 136 Taking Revenge on Her Ex-Husband? 0% 15:20 2/5 Remington gave her a cold, cutting look, letting her feel it for herself. “Great! Mr. Nelson is fine! Now it’s time to witness a miracle! Guess if I can crush the boulder in Mr. Nelson’s chest?” Cecelia had put down her microphone and picked up a hammer. Everyone on site became nervous, staring intently at the stage, especially Remington’s fangirls, who began to worry about him. They were all afraid that their prince charming would be hurt. At this moment, Cecelia held the hammer in both hands, slowly raising it above her head. After preparing herself, Cecelia brought down the first blow of the hammer. The first strike hit the edge of the boulder and a piece of stone fell off. Everyone thought her hammer missed the center. Only Remington could feel as if the hammer had gone through the boulder and hit his chest. He cursed inwardly, “D amn it! What a brutal woman!” Next, Cecelia continued to smash several times in a row. In the audience’s eyes, her performance of breaking the boulder was too amateurish. When others broke a boulder, they would smash the center with one strike, but she never hit the center, although she had tried many times. Remington endured silently as she kept hitting him with the hammer. He was sure that this woman was
taking revenge on him. After seven strikes, the boulder did break, and many pieces of stone fell down. Cecelia put away the hammer and asked Remington to stand up.

He wondered how Cecelia had managed to smash the boulder into a heart shape. “Thank you for your applause. My performance is over, and I would like to thank Mr. Nelson for his cooperation. Let’s give this stone to Mr. Nelson as a souvenir.” Cecelia handed the microphone to the host after speaking and walked off the stage. Remington also returned to the audience with the stone amidst applause. As soon as he sat down, people around him craned their necks to see the stone. If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, who would believe that the heart-shaped stone was smashed out instead of being pre-carved? The celebration continued with the last few segments. Cecelia returned to her seat, and Ariella grabbed her arm excitedly. “Cece, awesome! Your performance was so fantastic.” Cecelia remained calm and composed, and her classmates were all impressed by her. Only Shepard felt envious of Remington, who was able to perform with Cecelia on stage and even
received that unique heart-shaped stone. “If only I could receive it as a gift,” thought Shepard. It could be said that Cecelia’s performance was the most impressive one today, leaving a deep impression on everyone in the audience. The host continued to introduce the next performer, Angela. At this moment, the audience was still discussing the previous, performance, while Remington was sending a message and giving Winger instructions.

All these lines that came to Remington’s mind have become those. three lingering nights five years ago. All he could think of was Lilian’s cuteness and delicate figure.

All the performances have come to an end, and the college celebration ceremony was also drawing to a close after the speeches delivered by the college board. And there would be a special reception after the ceremony which was specially held for those students who have made contributions to the university, and the college committee already sent the invitations in advance. Those who have not been invited could leave soon. Cecelia decided to leave with the Nunos together. When Remington saw Cecelia leave with Shepard, he felt very depressed. He won’t as her wishes.
