Without hesitation, Quiana tossed him her voice recorder. Ryan caught it, confused, and after listening, exclaimed, “That’s incredibly shameless.”
He ground his teeth and said, “What’s Star Entertainment even doing? As long as you don’t want to keep a low profile, there’s no force in the entertainment industry that can hold you back.”
Taking the recorder back, Quiana maintained a straight face. “Do you want me to get you a megaphone so you can shout about it?”
Ryan rubbed his nose, still looking angry. “Ms. Levine, you can’t really be thinking about joining a group, can you?”
To Quiana, a girl group was just a burden. Quiana replied coolly, “Let’s talk about this later.”
“And what about Lucy?”
“If she wants a competition, she needs to be ready to lose.” Quiana’s tone was sharp as ice.
Ryan frowned. If Quiana hadn’t always maintained a low profile, he would have confronted Lucy long ago to knock some sense into her.
However, Quiana wasn’t someone who would show mercy, nor did she allow herself to be at a disadvantage. Ryan felt reassured and changed the subject. “Ms. Levine, what are your thoughts on my music video?”
Quiana shot him a glance and replied simply, “I’ll tell you later.”
Ryan thought to himself, ‘Fine. Since you’re the big shot, I’ll wait.‘
Only six hours remained until the second performance began. At the arena, fans started to arrive, ready to support their favorites.
Jocelyn sighed at the backstage. “I initially had high hopes for Lucy, but who could have imagined this?”
They knew about the drama between Lucy and Quiana, and the outcome didn’t surprise them. After all, no matter how talented Quiana was, she couldn’t compete with the Star Entertainment.
They were just mentors and couldn’t take any sides in the situation.
“Are both of them really doing the same dance tonight?” Alex asked, flipping through his notebook with a worried expression.
Steven nodded, speaking quietly, “Lucy has only gotten four hours of sleep in the last two days; the rest of the time she’s been learning that choreography.”
Ryan leaned back, crossing his arms and scoffing. “What a disaster.”
Alex and the others exchanged nervous glances, and then Eric finally spoke up.
He slid his chair closer, lowering his voice. “Ryan, there have been rumors going around camp that you’ve been hanging out with Quiana. You might want to watch out.”
Ryan stayed quiet.
The large gymnasium was packed with thousands of attendees, with every detail of the stage perfectly arranged. Ticket holders began to enter in an orderly manner.
“It’s suffocating in here,” Zack complained after closing the door in the VIP room, taking off his mask. He glanced over at

Julius in a wheelchair and said mysteriously, “Julius, I just heard something interesting. Do you want to know?”
Without lifting his gaze, Julius replied in a cool voice, “Not interested.
“Don’t be like that. Zack leaned in. I’m sure you’ll want to hear.
Leo smirked. “Mr. Evans, just say it.”

Zack shot him a glare, muttering that Julius lacked excitement. Leaning against the railing. Zack lit a cigarette and said, “I just walked around backstage. I didn’t see Quiana, but I caught wind of some news about her.”
Zack had little trouble getting backstage because of his connections. During his wandering, he heard from insiders about the rumors surrounding Lucy and Quiana.
But the information was scattered and far from complete.
Zack exhaled a puff of smoke and exclaimed, “First, she was accused of cheating by manipulating her votes, and now there are rumors that she stole Lucy’s choreography. It seems Quiana isn’t having an easy time at this training camp.
