Chapter 1032: Chapter 1039

However, Sadie deliberately lowered Ariana’s team’s score while still scoring the other teams fairly.

Despite Ariana’s team getting relatively high scores from the other judges, the two points Sadie gave them kept them from catching up to the other teams.

The morale of Ariana’s six rookies was at rock bottom, and Ariana also felt outraged inside.

Of course, she clearly knew that Sadie was intentionally targeting her.

Ariana was pretty happy with her team’s performance.

She had witnessed the hard work each of them put in over the past few days.

Unfortunately, Sadie’s little vendetta relegated them to last place.

They needed a high score in the following round to climb up some ranks, or they would be eliminated.

Ariana felt discouraged deep down.

However, she maintained a calm demeanor as she returned backstage.

Backstage, she saw five people gathered around a dejected Tom.

What could they possibly be talking about?

When Ariana got closer, she saw that Tom had his face in his hands and looked quite pitiful.

“Tom.

” Ariana called him with concern.

Tom looked up.

His eyes were red and there were traces left by tears on his cheeks.

‘s

Who could have imagined that the coolest guy on the stage, who seemed so arrogant and full of himself, would break down in tears when he was backstage?

When her initial confusion had passed, Ariana tried to comfort him.

“Don’t be upset.

You all did very well, and it’s not over yet.

”

Tom fiercely wiped his eyes and said with gritted teeth, “I’m really angry! What gives that woman the right to judge us? She clearly doesn’t understand anything!”

At this time, the other members hurried to comfort him.

“Maybe Sadie won’t be a judge during the next round.

Let’s aim for a high score in the next round, okay? Besides, there’s still the online voting which could help us.

”

“That’s right! That Sadie deliberately sank our score.

It wasn’t your fault.

”

Thanks to his teammates’ comforting words, Tom finally calmed down.

Just then, there were two knocks at the door.

Ariana glanced over and saw it was Jacob.

With her brows furrowed, she walked over to the man and asked, “What’s the matter?”

“I just came to see how things are going,” Jacob replied.

While speaking, he kept peering around, as if looking for someone.

Ariana understood what was on Jacob’s mind and she directly said, “Julio has left already.

”

Hearing this, Jacob laughed awkwardly.

He didn’t leave immediately but stayed there for a chit chat.

“I’m really sorry about last time.

I spoke without thinking.

Don’t take it to heart, please,” Jacob said sheepishly.

“It’s nothing.

I understand your choice,” Ariana replied perfunctorily.

After a short pause, Jacob continued, “You know Mr.

Cugat rarely visits Eleymond.

He’s a veteran legend in the industry.

The show’s production team should really offer him some hospitality to make his stay here more enjoyable.

”

It was obvious from Jacob’s words that he wanted to see Julio.

Ariana didn’t want to be in conflict with the production team, so she agreed to talk to Julio and saw Jacob off.

Soon, the premiere episode of the show was viral and news about Ariana’s team occupied five spots in the trends.

The first trending ranking was titled, “A nervous breakdown?” This article referred to the arrogant boy’s breakdown backstage.
