THE PROMISE
CHAPTER 27. ACCEPTING CHALLENGES

Clarissa did not want to lose want to humiliate Anastasya too.”Yes, that's very true, Young Master Archilles. It's only natural that you change your habits in the selection of brand ambassadors but at least you should give advance notice and not suddenly like this! After all she is just a country girl, how could you choose her as a brand ambassador?” clarissa Protest.

A commotion began to occur in the room, everyone present began to whisper to each other. “Is it true that the girl is from the village?”

“Yes, didn't the woman say that earlier? He was not only from the village but also did not know how to drink coffee.  How can that be?”

“It doesn't matter where he's from but it's not very suitable to get that title if he doesn't know anything about coffee.”

Seeing the protests from the audience makes Natasha feel victorious and take the microphone, “Anastasya are not you just capitalize on your beauty to get the title of brand ambassador? You are so pathetic! You can only rely on beauty because you have no other skills you can rely on! What a shameless shameless thing!”

Anastasya looked at her sister with a sharp and cold gaze making Natasha surprised.  Then Natasha looked at Kenneth and even the man looked at her more coldly and eerily. Now he's scared to see Kenneth again.

Natasha sighed deeply, “Isn't what I said true? If it wasn't for your beauty where maybe you could get the title of brand ambassador! You never even had coffee!”

“Who said I never had coffee? Did I ever say it or was it just your thought?” anastasya asked in annoyance.

Natasha felt this was her chance to humiliate Anastasya again, this time she would not give Anastasya a chance to win. “Good. Do you dare to prove it? If you accept my challenge and win it then I will let you get the title of brand ambassador!”

Kenneth who was already upset and fed up with Natasha's attitude wanted to say something but Anastasya's eyes stopped him. “Ok. Who's afraid! I accept your challenge!” anastasya said confidently.

He knew that this was just Natasha's wits and he wanted to follow her sister's play. Clarissa did not stay silent, immediately she met the organizers of the event to prepare everything.  He wants to see Anastasya humiliate himself in front of everyone. The organizers of the segerea event prepared two tables on stage along with the equipment needed to make coffee.

Kenneth's gaze was so anxious to see Anastasya but when he saw Anastasya looking at him as if convincing him that he would be fine then Kenneth let out a sigh of relief and calm. The host looked at the two girls who were already standing in front of each other's tables.

“Good. Both participants will start the Coffee Art competition now. Please start!”

Natasha also began to act, to make coffee art, of course, must prepare coffee by brewing coffee and both participants are required to make their own coffee. Natasha looks so flexible when weighing the coffee beans and put it in the coffee grinder, the movement is flexible and serious. The girl took the time to glance at Anastasya and her face turned deathly pale in surprise.

‘How could he possibly brew coffee well? Why would he be so skilled with all that equipment? His inner.

Anastasya folded the filter paper and placed it over the coffee filtering cup. Then he took the boiling hot water and poured it into the filter paper in a circular motion following the clockwise direction.  Seeing that Natasha was getting riled up and losing her concentration.

Only a professional coffee maker knows that. Because of that way to make the position of filter paper and cups more fitting at once can eliminate the smell of filter paper.  The way is also to warm the bottom of the cup to get a more delicious steeping coffee.

Anastasya mastered all the methods and techniques of brewing coffee and the way it works looks skillful and beautiful.  He really looks like a coffee maker.  The faces of the audience gazing from below the stage were shocked, the village girl actually knew how to brew coffee and she looked like a professional!

Benak Natasha was stunned for a moment, she tried to convince herself that she was not hallucinating.  What the hell is going on? Why did everything he planned not go as he expected? Isn't Anastasya just a girl who lives in the countryside and is not educated?

Unknowingly Natasha pinched her own hand then she lowered her head to focus on making coffee. It doesn't matter if Anastasya can brew coffee, it doesn't mean she also knows how to decorate coffee! Surely the village girl doesn't know how to make coffee art, does she? He murmured in his heart.

Natasha had already finished brewing her coffee twice and she smiled when she saw Anastasya was about to brew her coffee a second time. He thought that Anastasya knew how to brew coffee because he had worked in a coffee shop in the village. Now Anastasya has finished brewing his coffee a second time. The company announced that the coffee art competition had begun.

If the coffee brewing activity is just a simple activity and not difficult, but at the coffee art stage this is the challenge.  Coffee art uses pure milk and everyone should create his Latte Art theme before starting to decorate the coffee. Natasha proudly and smilingly introduced her Coffee Art theme, “I made a shining sun theme from behind the mountains. Mountain view with cold weather and simple country house.”

When it was Anastasya's turn to introduce his Coffee Art theme. He held the microphone and was silent for a moment to think of the right theme for his Coffee Art. “My theme is the spring breeze accompanies the beautiful flowers and fruit trees that bloom bring peace.”

When hearing Anastasya's poetic remarks made Natasha jealous and cursing in her heart.**** the little* followed up making a poetic theme.....cuihhh indeed she had been in school? Natasha compared herself to a university graduate with an art major and she also studied politics to improve her knowledge.

He ignored Anastasya who he thought was not comparable to him. Natasha began to focus on painting using pure milk, she covered the surface of the coffee with pure milk then took a painting tool to draw the sun and the mountains following a small wooden house. Lukisa on top of the steamed coffee looks like a picture of the weather in the cold countryside.

Natasha quickly paints all her imagination on the theme of her Coffee Art. The monitor screen showing the activities of the two girls was in the spotlight of the audience. As Natasha's coffee art video zoomed in, everyone stared in awe.  They judged if the girl was really artistic.

“How to paint on coffee is very good. Coffee like that can be sold in cafes at expensive prices.” said an invited guest.

“This is really a work of art, not just a latte art.”

“Wah. It is fitting that he becomes the first champion of the coffee competition.”

“It is only natural that The World Coffee Institute is the best coffee art learning place, proven that its graduates have very good skills.”

Clarissa who heard the praises of the audience became proud and happy, she was more and more convinced that her daughter would win and not disappoint. His daughter is very skilled and proud.
