Chapter 191 Threats

They each took turns speaking, boosting themselves.

Violeta finally understood what Nydia had mentioned before. She initially thought Nydia was overthinking, but it

turned out she was spot on.

Grace cut them off bluntly. "I take on apprentices and | need to specifically introduce her to you? Who do you

think you are?"

Vivian replied, "Grace, today's a good day, no need to be so harsh. We're all in the sindustry and we're

bound to run into each other. Even if you can avoid it, haha, your apprentices will still need to mingle in this

circle, right? If we fall out, don't think I'm easy to push around!"

Threats.

Clear threats.

Grace and her crew couldn't do much about it.

But Nydia and Hazel would still have to mingle in this circle in the future.

A bit of behind-the-scenes manipulation to target them would be a piece of cake.

Grace's face instantly darkened.

"Then go ahead and try it."

The atmosphere immediately dropped to freezing.

A host next to Vivian stepped forward and said, "Con, no need to be so tense. Let's not ruin the vibe. Grace,

you're turning forty today and just took on your last apprentice. That's great news! "We all know how high your

standards are for apprentices. We just want to see for ourselves, right everyone?"

"Yeah!"

"Show us what this new apprentice can do."

When Grace took on Hazel and Nydia, they were winning competitions at ten years old.

They had incredible talent from a young age.

But Violeta was already an adult, and since Vivian and the others didn't know her before, it meant she definitely

wasn't a dancer before.

Given Grace's high standards for apprentices, taking on someone who hadn't been dancing since childhood

seemed pretty odd.

They just wanted to stir things up and see what Violeta can do.

But this was like asking someone's date to dance at a party. It looked like they want to see Violeta's skills, but in

reality, they just want to take a jab at Grace. Of course, Grace wouldn't let Violeta go out and dance.

"I'll say it again, this is my banquet hall. I've noticed sdogs just don't learn after one or two times, so don't

blme for using a stick the third time!" Grace's words were very forceful, in line with her usual style.

Vivian's eyes shifted as she cup with a plan. She suddenly smiled and said, "Fine, fine, if you don't want to,

we won't push it. Let's go."

Vivian turned around and glanced at the people beside her.

The host next to her winked and whispered in a not-so-quiet voice, "Oh, heard someone's been cosying up to a

rich guy from Heokrish. Bet this new apprentice is his love child or something... "Hey, don't go spreading rumors

like that. If word gets out, it'll be all over the news."

"Let's go, let's head back to our area."

Classic move of couldn't get what you want, so started making up stories.

Seems like every industry has its share of petty people. Disgusting, really.

Violeta glanced at Grace, clearly seeing that Grace was also angered. She pursed her lips and took a step

forward.

"Stop right there," she said.

Vivian and the others once again halted their steps, looking at Violeta with playful expressions.

Seeing Violeta step forward, Hazel beca bit anxious.

"Vio!" Hazel called out softly.

Violeta turned her head and smiled at her, saying, "It's okay."

She indeed had no intention of pursuing a career in dance and hadn't been dancing since childhood.

But Violeta had decades of martial arts experience. In her previous life, she could perform various difficult stunts

for filming, so dancing shouldn't be a problem either.

Of course, if it involved action, she'd be fine, but if she had to dance on the spot, it might be tricky for her.

However, dancing on the spot wouldn't be feasible in this setting; there wasn't enough space.

Violeta had stepped up, and she had a hunch she could save Grace from any embarrassment.

Seeing Violeta step up, Vivian smirked. "Not bad. Takes guts to stand up to us. Can't say much about your dance

skills, but you've got snerve."

Everyone present was someone recognizable in the dance circle.

Many people gotta shake off snerves before they hit the stage.

Violeta's inner state was unknown, but at least on the surface, she appeared unfazed. She seemed to have

strong mental resilience, and Vivian made a mental note of her.

"So, you're Violeta White?"

"That's me!"

Vivian glanced at the person beside her. "Since we're doing an on-the-spot performance here and the space is

limited, let's just pick a few moves to show. What do you guys think we should do?" They whispered among

themselves for a moment.

Violeta lowered her gaze, pondering for a moment. Instead of letting them call the shots, she might as well take

charge.

"How about continuous front walkovers?"

"What?"

Vivian paused slightly, and Lucy beside her also looked surprise.

Continuous front walkovers was quite challenging, a move that took a lot of skill and practice over a long time. It

was definitely up there in terms of difficulty, like a five-star challenge.
