So, everyoneâs gaze fell on Cindy Clarke.
Yes, they also wanted to know what relationship Cindy had with Adrian Zhekova.
Zoe Silverstone deliberately said it so loudly, attracting everyoneâs attention to Cindy.
The best outcome for her would be for Cindy to be discredited because of her connection with Adrian, and her performance in the competition to be questioned.
It would be even better if she could be directly kicked out of the major competition.
âWhat kind of relationship is there? Iâm not like you, chasing after him to ask if he remembers me,â Cindy scoffed.
Zoe Silverstoneâs face turned red with anger: âDonât change the subject! If there is no relationship, how come your matter was personally approved by Adrian Zhekova?â
âHow would I know? Since you know Adrian, why donât you ask him? Anyway, he remembers you,â Cindy scoffed again.
âYouâ¦â Zoe Silverstone could hear laughter from the others.
Cindy chuckled and said, âMaybe the organizers couldnât make a decision, and they reported it to Adrian? Anyway, who knows? I just submitted my application, and then the organizers approved it. How could I know that Adrian was aware of it, and even personally approved it?â
At that moment, Cindyâs mobile phone rang.
âSorry, I need to take a call.â Cindy walked away from Zoe Silverstone.
She picked up her phone and saw Adrian Zhekovaâs name displayed on the screen.
Cindy thought to herself that it was lucky Zoe didnât see it.
Answering the phone, she heard Adrian say, âI just ignored that woman who chased after me.â
Adrian added that he didnât even know the womanâs name.
Cindy couldnât help but laugh: âI know, I was in the makeup room, and I heard your conversation outside.â
Adrianâs mouth curled up into a smile and said, âI didnât speak to you in the makeup room earlier because I didnât want others to think we knew each other and question your performance.â
âI know.â Cindy whispered, âThatâs why I didnât call out to you.â
Although Adrian was relieved that Cindy understood, it still felt a little disappointing.
He wished she had called out to him.
At the same time, Cindy heard the staff urging everyone to get ready.
However, because of Adrianâs words earlier, the staff had become more polite.
âI have to hang up, the competition is about to start.â Cindy hurriedly said.
âAlright,â Adrian nodded, âGood luck.â
âThank you.â Cindy said and hung up the phone, then switched her phone to airplane mode.
Not wanting the hassle of turning off her phone and not wanting to cause a live streaming accident, she simply switched to airplane mode.
Everyone hurriedly walked out, and Iris Doone somehow made her way to Cindyâs side.
âThe person who accompanied you to the group audition that day was Adrian Zhekova, right?â Iris whispered.
Cindy looked at her, and Iris sneered, whispering, âYou donât have to deny it; I had never met him in person before, so even if I thought it was him, I couldnât be sure. But now that Iâve seen him in person, I know itâs the same person who went with you to the competition that day. Thereâs no use in denying it.â
âSince youâre so smart and have figured it all out, why do you still dare to provoke me?â Cindy said sarcastically, looking at Iris.
âHeâs even accompanied me to the competition; do you think our relationship is good or not? If you keep provoking me, do you believe Iâll go back and tell him?â Cindy shamelessly used Adrian as a shield.
Seeing Irisâs changing expression and unwillingness.
However, she didnât dare say anything more and immediately backed off..
