Chapter 462:
Khloe, in contrast, appeared composed as she smoothly picked a slip of paper and glanced at it briefly before
holding it up.
Sloane couldn't figure out if Khloe’s task was challenging or not, and she muttered under her breath, convinced
Khloe was once again showing off. Unknown to many, Conroy had meddled with the drawing box to ensure Khloe
would face a surgery that seemed insurmountable.
Meanwhile, the others began drawing their slips.
The only man, visibly trembling with nerves, collapsed as soon as he read his slip. A staff member hurried to
support him and escort him off stage. The other woman pressed her lips together, trying to maintain her
composure, but the sweat glistening on her forehead gave her away. When she read her task, tears brimmed in

the operating room. She was resolute in proving herself, reclaiming her pride, and outshining Khloe completely.

Khloe in an awkward spot, while another part was focused on figuring out how to surpass Selena during the
