Chapter 340 She Is My Mentor
The audience at the venue and those watching the livestream online were looking at Grayson intently. They were eagerly waiting to hear Grayson’s comment on this group.
Many people were hoping that Grayson would criticize Catherine’s group severely. After all, he did not even watch their performance, so he must be very dissatisfied. Or perhaps, because of the scandal, Grayson wanted to avoid having too much interaction with Catherine.
No matter the reason, it would still be a trending topic. All eyes were on him. Grayson picked up the microphone. Faced with the host’s direct question, Grayson did not immediately speak but turned his scoreboard around so everyone could see.
On that A4 size whiteboard, he had written ten points. When they saw this number, everyone screamed. Eight groups had performed thus far, but this was the first group Grayson had given full marks.
Amid everyone’s surprise, Grayson slowly spoke, and his low and mesmerizing voice filled the air. “It’s not that I don’t want to see their performance, but I don’t dare to.”
Everyone was dumbfounded when they heard that. Grayson said that he did not dare to see their performance. What did that mean?
Following that, Grayson gave his explanation. His long fingers wrapped tightly around the black microphone. At that moment, his deep-set eyes were fixed on Catherine, staring intently. There was a hint of greed and obsession in his eyes.
“I am a singer. Although the program told me that the judging criteria are to judge the group’s performance as a whole, as a singer, my priority would be to consider the vocals. Catherine’s singing skills are, without a doubt, impressive. The audience’s reaction is the best indication that the score I’ve given is a well-deserved one!
“In my opinion, this group’s outstanding singing skills have made up for their lack of performance. Hence, I gave them full marks.

Likewise, I hope that in their following performances, they’ll be able to have a breakthrough and show us even better performances.”
After saying that, Grayson set down the microphone. He gave a very standard answer to reply to the host’s question. The host was a little surprised.
Originally, she thought she could get a big scoop or this would become a trending topic. Unexpectedly, Grayson answered the question so simply.
The host was unwilling to give up, so she continued asking Grayson other questions. She said, “Thank you for your comment, Mr. Clifford.
“Although you explained why you gave this group full marks, you didn’t explain why you didn’t dare to watch their performance. I think that everyone is very curious about it, too. Are you willing to share with us the reason, Mr. Clifford?”
At this point, a wave of comments flooded the screen.
[Wow, this host is superb! She’s so direct, I like it!]
[I’m also very curious. Why doesn’t he dare to watch their performance?]
[Could it be that there is really something between them?]
[Will Peerless Grayson answer the host’s question?]
The production team notified the host about the attention this question was receiving and told her to continue pressing Grayson for an answer.
Even though this was a nationwide competition between the elite schools, the program needed many sponsors to ensure the show was successful.
If the competition received much attention from the public, the sponsors would also be pleased.

After receiving the news from the director team, the host became even more unreserved in asking Grayson questions. She looked like she would not rest unless she got an answer from him.
Initially, Grayson did not want to say too much. Otherwise, the production team would use what he had said to its advantage to hype up the show.
It was not because he worried that those rumors would affect him. Instead, he was well aware that Catherine did not like to be on television.
He was worried that Catherine would be troubled by all the attention she was receiving. However, the host kept pressing him for an answer, so Grayson had no choice but to reply.
Grayson said, “You said something wrong. In front of this group, you shouldn’t address me as Mr. Clifford.”
“And why is that so?” the host asked. Grayson’s Adam’s apple bobbed a little. If one observed him carefully, one would notice that the usual aloof and supercilious Peerless Grayson was nervous. He behaved like a newly debuted lad.
“Everyone knows that Sugar used to be my composer. Actually, she is much more than that. The reason I could get to where I am today is because of Sugar’s mentoring. Strictly speaking, Catherine could be considered my mentor. As a student, I don’t have the right to call myself a judge in front of her.
“When I saw Catherine’s amazing performance, I suddenly felt a little ashamed. I didn’t put full effort into making music, so I didn’t make any progress. I’m too ashamed to face my benefactor and mentor, Catherine!”
After finishing his speech, the scene was in an uproar. Nobody expected that Grayson would behave so humbly.
Grayson was well known for his professionalism in the industry. He strived for perfection in his performance. Everyone knew him to be a hard worker.
However, he could say something so humble in front of the audience. Once again, the screen was flooded with comments!
[Goodness! Peerless Grayson will criticize himself like so in front of a nobody? Am I dreaming?]
[Peerless Grayson, you’re no doubt my idol. Unlike him, nobody else will criticize their shortcomings in the entertainment industry.]
[What is Catherine’s background? How could she possibly be Peerless Grayson’s debut mentor?]
[Catherine is not bad at singing, but Grayson doesn’t need to brag about her like so. Could it be another way of trying to hype up the show?]
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm[No, I don’t agree with what you said. Is there even a need for Peerless Grayson to hype up this show, especially for a newcomer?]
[This is such a fantastic show!]
Not only was the audience shocked by Grayson’s words, but even the participants in the waiting area were also astounded.
As one of the program’s judges, Grayson must be very impressed by Catherine to speak so highly of her. A dark look came over Emma’s face when she heard Grayson’s comment about Catherine’s group.
Nobody knew that the complacent Emma was also one of Grayson’s fans. Grayson was one of the reasons that she gave up the cello and chose to enter the entertainment industry.
Emma liked Grayson. She hoped they could be on the same stage and perform together one day! This was a sweet dream of hers!

Emma constantly kept herself updated with Grayson’s news. Naturally, she knew about the rumors regarding Catherine and Grayson.
In her opinion, that was all Catherine’s doing. Peerless Grayson was such an aloof and cold person. How could he possibly be involved in a scandal with Catherine?
Hence, when Liana made use of her earlier, Emma stepped out unhesitatingly. That was because they had the same goal, which was to teach Catherine a lesson! However, she never expected that Grayson would speak of Catherine so highly.
Based on what?
Why was someone like Catherine able to get Grayson’s appreciation?
On the stage, the host was also dumbfounded by Grayson’s words. She was in a daze for a few minutes before donning a customary smile. “Thank you for giving us an answer, Mr. Clifford. Seems like you have a really high rating of Catherine’s team!”
Holding the microphone in front of Catherine, the host added. “So, do you guys have anything to say? Or perhaps, hearing that Mr. Clifford has spoken so highly of your team, you might want to give a response?”
Catherine was carrying a guitar and standing on stage in a relaxed manner. She had a devilish and unrestrained aura emitting from her. Upon hearing the host’s question, Catherine looked up lazily.
“There’s still hope for you yet,” she said reluctantly.
