As soon as the results were declared, a round of clapping ensued.Jane was feeling a bit perplexed. Did she just clear four rounds?She glanced at the judge desk's monitor and saw that there were indeed four passes and one negative vote.Ciara's vote against her was expected, but she was taken aback when Patti gave her a pass! He was known for being extremely strict.Of course, Ciara couldn't believe that Jane had made it through. She thought Patti would vote against her, just like she did.But now that Patti had given her a pass, Ciara's negative vote seemed suspicious.It was all the host's fault. Why didn't she let the judges comment first and then vote? Otherwise, she wouldn't have made such a mistake.Her face turned sour. This was a live broadcast, and she couldn't start over.Regardless, she had to make the best of it!Little did she know that the barrage was attacking her."Patti LuPone voted yes, and Ciara Tyla voted no. Does she know more about music than Patti LuPone?""Why
Up until this point in the competition, the only contestant to receive praise from Patti is Jane.Joaquin also commended Jane, stating: "Your high notes are exceptional and effortless. Additionally, your emotional delivery and control of expression are outstanding. You are truly exceptional.""Thank you." Jane graciously responded.Pooch echoed Joaquin's sentiments, leaving McKaley to share his thoughts.Looking at Jane, McKaley remarked: "The arrangement of your song is reminiscent of someone I know. The combination of folk, canon, and rock is executed flawlessly. Your pure singing voice beautifully captures a girl's longing for love. Have you ever been in love?"Jane was taken aback before shaking her head. "No, I haven't."Julio teased, "Why, McKaley, are you trying to woo Jane?"McKaley quickly denied any romantic intentions. "No, no, I just appreciate the beauty of her song."Julio laughed, "Don't worry, we won't hold you responsible for anything."Joaquin playfully added, "Are y
Jane had already anticipated that Ciara would make this statement.She lacks musical prowess and opts for the role of a caring sister.However, supporting low-level players and opposing high-level players are two entirely different concepts.Furthermore, the two of them still have unresolved issues.Did she believe that others would take her words seriously?Jane said, "Thank you.""You're welcome. Keep up the good work," Ciara replied kindly.Julio smiled and said, "Ciara has been very supportive of Jane, but there was only one contestant who received unanimous approval today. We must now look forward to the next performers. Nonetheless, I would like to congratulate Jane Austen on advancing to the next round. Please step down and rest now. We need to invite the next contestant."Jane glanced at Julio. As expected of the host, her previous statement was meant to provoke.However, it had no effect on Jane.She turned around, showed gratitude to the judges' panel and the audience, and t
Jane detected that the situation was problematic, so she shoved Hannah, saying, "Move out of the way!"Hannah stood motionless for a moment, then quickly sidestepped to conceal herself.Jane turned her head and perceived a dark figure emerging from the shadows, sprinting towards her with an object in hand.She warned, "Be careful, Jane!"Jane's keen eyes recognized that it was a glass bottle, and she sensed that it contained something harmful.As she stepped backward, she scrutinized the man warily.He was a scruffy, unshaven man in his thirties, with a hateful expression in his eyes."You damned woman, go to hell!" The man clutched the bottle with both hands and hurled it towards her, the liquid inside spilling out.Jane reacted swiftly, dodging to the side.There was a loud crash as the liquid splattered on the ground.Jane breathed a sigh of relief, but suddenly felt a burning sensation on her legs.She looked down and saw a black stain on her light blue jeans, which she assumed wa
Damien cooperated, and Jane swiftly removed his suit.Before he could utter a word, she pulled him towards the nearby faucet and attached the hose. She turned on the faucet and aimed the hose at Damien's back.At that moment, Damien felt a slight burning sensation on his back, but it was much more comfortable after being washed by the water.Previously, the concentrated sulfuric acid had splashed on his back, but luckily his suit was thick enough to prevent disastrous consequences.Jokingly, he said to Jane, who still had a stern look on her face, "It seems that you like to get wet and alluring."Jane glared at him and snapped, "Shut up, I don't want to hear a word from you right now."Damien pursed his lips and remained silent.Jane usually appeared as a gentle kitten, but during crucial moments, she transformed into a tiger with claws and fangs.However, he admired her for it.Seth and Hannah approached them."Damien, are you okay?" Seth inquired.Damien shook his head and replied,
Damien drove himself, so he had to drive back too.Jane planned to sit in the backseat, but he turned up in a two-seater Rolls Royce sports car today.Thus, she had to sit next to him.They both remained silent throughout the journey.He drove the car with a steady hand while the wind blew on their faces through the open windows, making Jane's previously anxious heart calm down.Suddenly, she remembered the time when he had rushed to save her without any hesitation and had held her tightly in his arms.At that moment, her heart had been shaken, and she had felt an intense surge of emotion.She had once been saved by someone who had risked their life for her.However, she and Damien were not related in any way, and their marriage contract was only a means to an end. Therefore, his decisive action to save her could not be because he loved her more than his own life.As soon as this thought crossed her mind, she dismissed it immediately.They were not a real couple, and it was said that
Vehicles were rushing past outside the window, and the bright light from the headlights was reflecting on people's faces, causing a little bit of glare.Damien leaned in with a firm stance, propping his hands on both sides of the seat and enveloping her in his arms.Under the night sky, his light brown eyes appeared deep and enigmatic, making it hard for anyone to read his emotions.Jane leaned back on the chair, wanting to withdraw, but there was no way out.She grasped the top with both hands, pressed her lips tightly, and met his gaze with her clear eyes.His warm breath brushed her face, and the faint fragrance of cologne filled her nostrils.As their breaths intertwined, she felt a dryness in her body and her heart rate increased uncontrollably.An ambiguous scent filled the air.Jane instinctively recognized his face, glanced out of the car window, and concealed her panic.Damien watched her retreat, his lips curling slightly.He leaned in closer to her ear and whispered, "Not e
Jane felt that her sincere intentions were completely misunderstood.She chuckled, "Will anyone who is not serious come to bed with me?"Damien raised his eyebrows, "I can't resist your beauty, even a god would be tempted, let alone a mortal like me."This man's shamelessness is as thick as a wall, she thought.Although others may not mind, she suddenly didn't want to talk and turned to go upstairs.Damien watched her disappear up the stairs, the smile on his face fading away.He reached back to touch the spot, a dark light flashing in his light brown eyes.How could his sunflower see such an ugly thing?But it was time to deal with that matter, and the darkness in his eyes deepened.In the living room of the villa, a man lay on the ground, tied up with ropes and gasping for breath with his eyes wide open.Two men in black suits stood next to him with serious expressions.Seth sat on the sofa, sipping tea.He said that sending this person to the police station was just to deceive an i
