His loud voice attracted the attention of the stars who hadnât left yet.
Elva, being a well-known singer in the industry, had never faced such public shaming before.
Despite her strong exterior, the cruel scolding from Jasper proved too much for her to handle and she broke down in tears.
Jasperâs harsh words continued, âWhy are you shedding tears now?
You didnât shed a single one when you made that mistake on stage.
â
As Jasper continued to berate Elva, his phone suddenly rang.
Snatching it up, he was met with the voice of his assistant, eagerly reporting, âBoss, as weâve planned, the news of Elvaâs victory over Sarah and securing first place has hit the top ten of the hottest searches! Itâs all over the Internet!â
This announcement only added fuel to the fire of Jasperâs anger, as he took it as a personal affront to his reputation.
âAre you kidding me?! Retract it now! Donât you have eyes? Canât you see the huge mistake Elva made? How could you announce such news in this situation?â he bellowed.
Caught off guard, his assistant stammered, âYes, yes, Iâl retract it right away.
â
Just as Jasper was about to unleash more of his wrath upon Elva, he caught a glimpse of a stunning and aloof woman bedecked with sparkling jewelry, striding into the hall, surrounded by eight burly bodyguards.
Jasperâs gaze was immediately drawn to the stunning figure that had just entered the room.
Her tailored, high-end ensemble showcased her hourglass curves, and her plump, perfectly shaped lips were the cherry on top.
She was a delicate beauty, reminiscent of a blooming peony.
Jasper had an eye for beauty, and he instantly recognized Jennifer Austin, the recent high-profile bride-to-be of Adrian, daughter of the renowned Austin family.
Just as he was about to approach her, Jennifer cast a disdainful gaze around the room, her voice dripping with ice as she demanded, âWhere is Ariana Edwards?â @
Jasper was thrilled to see Jennifer was here to confront Ariana.
The situation was shaping up to be intense as Jennifer brought eight bodyguards, ready to confront Ariana.
Seizing the opportunity to stir up trouble, Jasper stepped forward and introduced himself with a friendly smile.
âHello Miss Austin.
My name is Jasper Anderson, second son of the Anderson family from Eleymond.
â
Jennifer gave Jasperâs outstretched hand a disdainful once-over.
Her brows furrowed as she questioned, âThe Anderson family in Eleymond? I only know Theodore Anderson.
Who are you exactly, another young Mr.
Anderson that I havenât heard of?â

Jasperâs grin abruptly faded at Jenniferâs question.
However, before he had a chance to respond, Jennifer eagerly asked, âCan someone please tell me where Ariana is? I need to have a word with her.
â
Jasper seized the opportunity to brush off his embarrassment and carried on as if nothing happened.
He offered to lead Jennifer to the lounge where Ariana was.
âWhat luck! Ariana just stepped out; she might be in the lounge now.
Allow me to show you the way.
Jennifer agreed and said, âLead the way.
â
Meanwhile, Ariana was consoling Sarah, telling her not to take the voting results to heart.
âJust take it easy and get some rest when you return to the dormitory.
Donât let the results of the vote get to you.
Jasper rigged the whole thing, so itâs not a true reflection of the audienceâs opinions.
â
Sarah nonchalantly grinned and stated, âNo need to fret for me.
