Although Flint was still nervous sitting next to his stepfather, he tried to remain calm rather than be teased by his stepfather. He hoped the opening ceremony would pass quickly so he could be free from his abusive stepfather. As the competition participants were introduced one by one on stage, his feelings grew even more awkward, fearing that his stepfather would belittle his architectural skills. The real reason he had withdrawn from the profession was because he had been belittled by his stepfather.
Now it was his turn to present his studio and the team members who would be supporting him in the competition. He listed all the names of his close friends from his college days while looking at his stepfather, who smiled sarcastically at him as if laughing at him. Although he was the only one showcasing his game studio, he wasn't embarrassed, as he was also participating in the competition as a representative of Star Group.
