The Second Act Revenge (Oneida and Jackson) novel Chapter 117

hapter 117 

After announcing Roxanne as the winner, a reputable and famous karate master walked up to the stage with a championship trophy in his hand. 

The karate master had been specially invited to present the championship trophy. 

And just like that, Roxanne found herself being presented with glittering gold trophy. 

Roxanne was stunned for a moment, then she stretched out her hand and accepted the trophy. 

The weight of the trophy finally made her believe it was happening, but she could not help but wonder, “I… won the championship? I thought I would have to fight tooth and nail after the break time. Did Oneida forfeit? Could it be this easy?” 

Roxanne could not figure out why Oneida would forfeit, but she was happy not to find out since Oneida’s decision benefited 

her. 

After all, what mattered to Roxanne was that she had successfully avoided humiliation and won the championship. 

However, the audience burst into a violent uproar when Roxanne accepted the trophy. 

Someone pointed at Roxanne and asked angrily, “What gives her the right to win the championship? She has been thrashed by Oneida in the match!” 

Immediately after, the rest of the audience began to follow suit. 

RER 

“That’s right. I wouldn’t accept the trophy if I were you! Have you no shame? Don’t you 

“How pitiful. You would have lost if Oneida didn’t give up. I feel so sorry for you.” 

feel guilty at all?” 

“Just how badly do you want the trophy? You’re so blissfully ignorant of just how weak you are! You were beaten to the ground so many times! The only winner I would accept is Oneida!” 

“We know clearly who the real champion is. Only those who care about their reputation would accept a stolen trophy. I’m sure you, the genius of Starlight Class, would agree.” 

“The trophy rightfully belongs to Oneida, not you!” 

The audience was getting more and more chaotic and out of control! 

Roxanne held on to the trophy with a stiff expression on her face. She could only watch as the entire audience verbally attacked her. 

Ever since she could remember, she had always been worshiped as a genius. Everyone praised and admired her. 

No one had treated her like how the audience was treating her now. 

Infinite malicious words and questions were coming at her from all sides. 

All Roxanne ever wanted to do was win the championship. She did not understand what was so wrong with that. 

The referee was very anxious about the audience’s out–of–control behavior too. There was no way he would let the audience ruin what was supposed to be a beautiful award ceremony. 

“Be quiet!” The referee took the microphone and shouted at the audience, “I’ll have to call in security if you all don’t quiet down!” 

The audience became even more enraged after that.

Chapter 117 

Hahal How can you still have the nerve to ask us to quiet down Like father, like daughter! You and Roxanne must be working hand in hand!“. 

Referee, how dare you say that! You’re the one who’s willing to throw away your honor so that your daughter, Roxanne, can win the championship!” 

“What a hypocrite! You said that according to the rules, Roxanne is the winner… Well, why didn’t you go by the rule when you agreed to the break time? You’re giving double standards!” 

Some in the audience even began to come up with conspiracy theories. 

“What do you think happened during the break time? Both Roxanne and Oneida were resting in the waiting area, and only Roxanne returned after that, whereas Oneida suddenly forfeited the match. I can’t help but suspect that something happened during the break…” 

“You make a good point! Roxanne, did you say something to Oneida during break time? Did you force her to forfeit the match?” 

“Is it possible that the referee and Roxanne worked together to force Oneida to pull out from the championship?” 

“I find it really strange that Oneida would suddenly forfeit. There must have been some foul play involved. Why would she give up without warning after the break?” 

Everyone’s anger reached its peak in an instant. 

Suddenly, they all started throwing their water bottles at the stage, but no one knew who had started it first. 

Some of the bottles even hit Roxanne and the referee. 

Even the master karate who gave out the trophy was not spared. 

The three of them on the stage had become human–shaped targets as they were attacked with countless water bottles. 

Someone from the audience even took off their sneakers and hurled them onto the stage. 

The whole scene had become even more chaotic than before. 

“That’s enough. Everyone, calm down!” 

At that moment, someone they never expected arrived on the scene. 

Xavier took the microphone and calmly walked onto the stage. “I can understand your anger, but please calm down.” 

Xavier had been watching the final match and had rushed over immediately when he realized the situation was getting out of control. 

“Everyone can see for themselves that Oneida is indeed stronger than Roxanne,” Xavier said unhurriedly. “So, it’s unfair that. Roxanne should be crowned as the winner.” 

“Having said that, what’s also true is that Oneida had forfeited the match, so I think the best course of action is that no one will be crowned this year’s campus festival karate tournament.” 

Everyone was stunned. 

It was out of their expectations that Xavier would be so reasonable and decisive. 

“For this year’s tournament, there will only be second place and no first place. Both Oneida and Roxanne will be second- place winners. Thope that this decision will be to everyone’s satisfaction,” added Xavier.

Chapter 117 

Roxanne’s face turned pale and her body stiffened as soon as she heard that 

The audience was mostly satisfied. 

“I guess I can accept that, It’s just that… I’m still not happy that they would share the second place since Oneida was much stronger than Roxanne.” 

“Mr. Zook has acted wisely, unlike a certain referee…” 

“Mr. Zook! Aren’t you going to do something about the referee? Je was showing clear favoritism and didn’t behave impartially!” 

“Roxanne should be in third place! She doesn’t deserve to share the same place with Oneida. She was barely hanging on during the match!” 

“Well, it makes sense since Oneida forfeited and Roxanne asked for a break time, so given that one isn’t better than the other…” 

Xavier turned to look at the referee with an icy expression on
