Chapter 213 Amazing Performance
As the crowd gathered, Liana had an idea and walked up to the stage, tightly holding Jessica’s hand.
To outsiders, it seemed like Liana was helping to mediate, which was rare for her to do at a time like
this.
Liana kept persuading Jessica while pulling her hand. “Jessica, let it go.” 11 After saying that, she
turned her head and looked politely at Catherine.
“Catherine, Jessica brought her dance costume today. You don’t need to rehearse the whole afternoon,
right? I remember that there are usually five or six groups rehearsing in the afternoon. Can you spare
some time for Jessica? It doesn’t matter if I practice or not!”
Liana was quite clever. She indirectly criticized Catherine, accusing her of taking the opportunity of five
or six people. At the same time, she praised herself and pretended to be good to Jessica. Her tactics
were really impressive!
The more Jessica listened to Liana’s words, the angrier she became. She looked at Catherine with
disgust.
“Liana, why are you always speaking up for her? Clearly, she’s in the wrong. She’s just a wild child who
grew up in the countryside without anyone to discipline her. She’s uncultured and doesn’t understand
any manners!”
“What did you say?” Catherine hadn’t even gotten angry yet, but Ronin exploded with rage. He was an
orphan, and if it weren’t for Catherine, he wouldn’t be where he was today. He hated it the most when
others called him a wild child. Similarly, he would never allow anyone to say a single bad word about
his boss. Seeing that Ronin was about to charge forward, Bryan quickly stopped him.

Bryan was well aware of what kind of person Liana was. She had been instigating a lot of things before.
Despite her seemingly gentle and weak appearance, she was a typical hypocrite. She would cause
trouble and then find someone else to take the blame.
At first, Bryan didn’t know her well and felt indifferent towards her. But now that he knew her better, he
found her manipulative nature detestable. He stopped Ronin because he thought it wasn’t right for a
man to hit a woman, but that didn’t mean he didn’t despise Liana and Jessica.
When Bryan heard Jessica’s arrogant words, he was also furious and pointed at her, cursing, “You look
down on others for being from the countryside?
Have you ever thought about the days when your grandparents were in the business of cleaning up
other people’s shit?”
The Freemans didn’t start off wealthy. Jessica’s grandfather was a servant before he made his fortune
in the toilet business.
The Freemans had always been ashamed of their past. While not many people in Casier knew about it,
some in the upper circles did. However, in their daily interactions, people would show some respect to
the Freemans and didn’t mock them.
He had exposed it publicly only because Jessica had provoked Bryan. Instantly, everyone burst into
laughter. Everyone knew that the Freemans had made their fortune in the toilet business, but they
never expected that Jessica’s grandfather used to be a servant.
Jessica didn’t expect Bryan to expose this scandal at this moment. If someone had exposed it, she
could have refuted it.
Bryan never got involved in such matters. With the power of the Duncans, he did not need to tell such
lies. Jessica’s face turned red, and she stood still, almost fainting.
Liana, seeing Jessica’s defeat, was about to step forward. But Bryan had already seen through her
scheme and directly exposed her.
“And you. Don’t always act all gentle and weak, pretending everyone bullies you. Don’t think we’re all
fools who can’t see through your schemes. We will rehearse the whole afternoon, and everything will
be done according to proper procedures. Don’t try to fool us with your tricks. They won’t work!”
After Bryan finished speaking, David immediately chimed in, “That’s right. We followed proper
procedures. Our five groups applied, but we don’t want to practice right now. We’re willing to give our
rehearsal time to Catherine and her team. Any problem with that?”
To secure the stage, David had deliberately arranged for four or five groups to register. They offered
their rehearsal time to Catherine, meaning they were not forcefully occupying the stage.
Other people in the crowd also expressed their opinions. Their dissatisfaction was directed towards
Liana and Jessica, not Catherine and her team.
“How dare they speak ill of others? They are always cutting in line. Last time, they forcefully pushed me
out. Why didn’t they mention that?”
“That’s right. We willingly gave up our practice time for Bryan. What does it have to do with them?
Acting like they’re some saviors, it’s disgusting!”
“They should check their behavior before accusing others of occupying the stage. Jessica Freeman is
known for her domineering attitude. Everybody knows!”
Seeing that the situation was not in their favor, Jessica lost all her fighting spirit. There was no other
choice. Liana could only drag her away in shame amidst the scolding and disdain of the crowd.
Perhaps they had never been so embarrassed in their lives. Ronin had been angry at Bryan for
blocking him and not giving him a chance to teach Jessica a lesson. But he was surprised at how
authoritarian Bryan was when he fought back.
Seeing the two idiots fleeing, Ronin couldn’t help but reach out and pat Bryan on the shoulder. “Not
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmbad, kid. You’re a genius when it comes to sarcasm. I like you!”
Bryan rolled his eyes at Ronin and turned around to tune his guitar. His indifferent attitude instantly
infuriated Ronin.
“You little brat, do you want to fight?”
Ronin angrily rolled up his sleeves, preparing for a big fight. But when he looked up, he met Catherine’s
eyes. Thinking about how Catherine didn’t like them causing trouble, he instantly stopped, not daring to
act rashly.
“Boss, I’ll go prepare the drum set!” After saying that, he obediently ran off. With the two annoying
people gone, the remaining people were all eager to see Catherine and her team’s rehearsal.
Last time, her performance was already shocking enough. This time, they would perform on the stage,
which greatly piqued everyone’s anticipation.
The moment the music started playing, everybody was excited. Catherine’s angelic voice struck
everyone’s hearts and left them mesmerized.
“Oh my god, how can someone sing so beautifully!” “Yeah, this song is really amazing. What’s the
name, and who is the original singer?”
“Shut up, don’t distract us from listening to the song!”
Amid this appreciation and admiration, the music stopped. Not only the audience below but also Bryan
was shocked by the complete performance. He didn’t expect the song to be so good!
Finally snapping out of their trance, David and the others clapped frantically, cheering for an encore,
hoping to hear it again.
Unfortunately, Catherine suddenly put away the microphone and left. Catherine hadn’t expected to gain
anything new from rehearsing. She always aimed for perfection, and this rehearsal made her discover
a minor issue, so small that it wasn’t noticeable.
But it wasn’t enough for Catherine, who always strived for perfection. She had to correct it. Everyone
looked disappointed as Catherine left. Who would dare to demand a performance from her?
But they were sure about one thing- their performance was outstanding!
