Arianaâs hands curled into tight fists, and she nearly choked in anger.
She opened her mouth to protest, but Josh impatiently dismissed her with a wave of his hand.
âGo away.
Youâre disturbing the shooting.
Why are you making such a fuss? Itâs just an interview.
Sheâs been in this show business, so she should know what itâs like.
Thereâs no running away from questions about private life.
â
Ariana pressed her lips together tightly.
She had to suppress her frustrations for now.
She had no choice but to watch and hope.
Fortunately, Sarah was once a superstar and knew exactly how to react.
When she was faced with the hostâs trap, she handled the problem with great aplomb.
She smiled through it, and no one could find fault with her elegance.
Josh could not hide his frownâhe seemed rather unhappy about it.
He raised his hand silently and gestured at the host from behind the camera.
The host caught sight of him and understood immediately.
He quickly closed off the interview.
Ariana had caught this, too, and knew exactly what was going on.
But she had to withhold her fury.
After all, the camera was still rolling, and there were many notable people around.
If she caused a scene, it would only get Sarah into trouble.
Fortunately, it was a short interview.
Ariana was confident in Sarahâs performance coming up.
In the past five years, despite never working, Sarah didnât give up on music.
Sarah chose an original song to perform on the program.
It was a song that had never been heard by the public.
When Ariana heard it for the first time, she was amazed by it.
Sarahâs song was enchanting and had an ethereal quality.
Sarah was not lacking talent, just a stage to express it.
She was passionate.
No matter how life treated her, she never lost her love for music.
In the hearts of those who knew her, Sarah would remain the most shining star in the sky.
Ariana was convinced that, once the broadcast was released, those who had loved Sarah and her songs before would fall back in love with her.
The stage lights were ready.
Ariana looked at the stage in anticipation.
But abruptly, Josh turned to her and said, âThe backing track you submitted is damaged to a point we canât use.
Sarah needs to change her song.
â @
Since only Sarahâs accompaniment had been damaged, Ariana suspected someone might have tampered with it.

But now wasnât the time to investigate.
The accompaniment crisis had to be solved first.
Luckily, she had a backup on her laptop, but electronic equipment was not permitted on the filming site.
So she left her laptop in the lounge.
âWhat should we do, Ariana?â Betsy was pacing up and down anxiously.
Sarah had to go on stage soon.
How could she perform with no accompaniment?
Thinking quickly, Ariana made a suggestion.
âGo to the lounge, and get my laptop.
Thereâs a backup on there.
Iâll talk to them.
â
âOkay,â Betsy said and hurried out of the room.
Then Ariana turned to Josh.
âCan you postpone Sarahâs part by ten minutes? You can let the singers after her perform first,â she asked.
