My Stand-In Groom Is A Secret Tycoon (Audrey)

Everyone from the Harper family was there except for Miles, who was busy with school.

Last time, Trevor only brought Miles and sat in the back, but this time he went all out, spending extra money on front-row seats.

Trevor said, "Mom and Dad, there'll be a lot of other people's fans at the event today. If you hear anyone badmouthing Audrey, just pretend you didn't hear it.

"There's no need to engage with them. Remember, we're here to support Audrey, not to cause her any trouble.

Jessica and Peter quickly nodded.

They originally thought Audrey only had a few fans, but when they arrived, they found that most of the people in the crowd were holding signs supporting her.

Seeing this, Trevor felt both moved and proud. He grabbed his parents' hands and said, "I didn't expect so many people to come for Audrey. She's really doing great."

"She deserves it." Jessica was also excited but soon calmed down. She pulled her son and husband to find seats. "Alright, let's go sit down. Don't make a fuss and embarrass Audrey."

As the three of them took their seats, Francis and Evelyn entered with Sunny.

It was Sunny's first time at such a crowded event, so Evelyn kept a close eye on him, holding him and checking on him from time to time.

Fortunately, Sunny didn't make much of a fuss and sat obediently in his seat.noveldrama

The lights dimmed at the venue. Evelyn and Francis sat with Sunny between them, protecting him on both sides.

Due to the dim lighting, Jessica didn't notice Sunny.

A few minutes later, the host Jake took the stage and first invited the recently very popular team to perform a thrilling opening dance.

The atmosphere was instantly electrified. Everyone present raised their glow sticks and cheered. After the opening dance concluded, Jake took the mic again, made some customary remarks, and announced that the first one-to-one elimination round of the talent show was about to begin. Jake glanced at the script in hand and said with a smile, "The order of appearance in this battle corresponds to the order in which the contestants drew lots, so our first match is Yulia versus Helena. Please get ready."

Yulia's face instantly turned pale backstage upon hearing this.

Leila felt a pang of sympathy seeing Yulia trembling beside her.

Yulia really didn't have any chance to win Helena.

The match hadn't even started, but everyone seemed to have foreseen who would win.

Thinking about this, Leila couldn't help whispering to Audrey, "I guess Yulia's just here to be a runner-up. But with her strength, making it to the second round is already a gain.

"If you hadn't saved the day in her initial performance, she'd have been out long ago." Audrey didn't say anything, just gave Yulia a faint look.

Yulia felt they were mocking her behind her back. She clenched her fists in anger and silently held a grudge against Audrey.

Helena was the first to go on stage.

Her performance was nearly perfect. Her original song was both exciting and energizing, earning her immense rounds of applause and enthusiastic cheers.

When it was Yulia's turn, she did her best to outperform, but Helena's fans kept booing from the audience. Amidst her own anxiety, she ended up making mistakes in some of her final moves. en

As expected, after the competition, Yulia, with her very low score, was the first contestant to be eliminated in this performance show.

Jake reassured Yulia, saying that being at the top of the online popularity list still offered her a chance for

a comeback. Perhaps Yulia could return to the stage.

Yulia's face turned paler at this remark.

Up to now, Audrey had consistently been at the top of the online popularity list.

There was no way Audrey would let her have a comeback.

Seeing the audience's mocking yet sympathetic looks, Yulia felt deeply humiliated. Before Jake could

finish his comforting words, she ran off the stage with a flushed face.

On her way

she came across staff

members who all seemed like they wanted to comfort her, which made

Yulia feel even worse. She hurried to the dressing room with her head down.

Suddenly, a pair of hands appeared in front of her, blocking her.
