School leaders and representatives gathered in the auditorium to accompany Mr. Hawkins in casting roles, demonstrating their high regard for the event.
Milly donned a sophisticated ballet dress, exuding a delicate and elegant aura. Her fair complexion, combined with the pristine white dance attire, gave her the appearance of a celestial being gracing the earth..
Despite her enchanting appearance, she still sported oversized glasses and thick bangs that partially obscured her features, almost as a shield.
William and Melanie surrounded her, showering her with compliments..
“Boss, you look stunning. I was planning to help you find a ballet costume, but Jordan beat me to it.”
“Boss, you are a living fairy today!”
“Do you have any culture? That’s what you call a celestial being descending to earth.”
“Aren’t celestial beings and fairy the same thing? It seems like you’re the one lacking culture.”
You two.
Observing their impending argument, Milly swiftly intervened, “Enough, you two. Aren’t you supposed to be heading to class soon? Go on. I’ll return to the classroom after the audition.”
Melanie grinned and remained seated, explaining, “Boss, the next class is self–study. We brought the papers the teacher assigned us, so we’ll stay here and support you later!”
William chimed in, “That’s right.”
Noticing their determination, Milly sighed. “Fine, but both of you need to keep a low profile and avoid trouble, got it?”
These two are both hot–tempered. She feared that if she failed the audition, they might confront Alan. So it’s better to instruct them beforehand to feel reassured.
Melanie and William made an “OK” gesture, signifying their understanding.
They knew they had to behave well.
Meanwhile, in a secluded corner backstage, Stephanie was surrounded by admirers, all gazing enviously at her dazzling diamond–embroidered outfit.
“Stephanie, this designer outfit is truly exquisite, just like those in magazines. I heard even celebrities. struggle to borrow it.”
“Stephanie, you look absolutely stunning today. You’re sure to outshine everyone.”
“Stephanie, I envy you for having such an amazing brother.”

on this dress are all real and priceless.”
The girls around her recoiled in fear, retracting their hands that were about to touch the dress.

Suddenly, a slender girl spotted something and pointed. “Stephanie, look. Isn’t that your sister, Milly? She’s auditioning.
Following her gaze, Stephanie spotted Milly surrounded by Melanie and William. It was evident that Milly was clad in a top–tier designer ballet dress. Though not as extravagant as hers, it was still from a renowned designer and not inexpensive.
That dress must have been a gift from Jordan!
Ever since Jordan learned of her audition, he hadn’t inquired if she needed a ballet dress but had secretly arranged one for Milly. Was it because he expected her to seek assistance from Matthew? Or did Jordan simply disregard her entirely?
These thoughts ignited a jealousy so intense it felt suffocating. Clutching the skirt of her dance dress. tightly, she felt slight discomfort as the tiny diamonds dug into her palm, grounding her momentarily.
“Have you taken care of what I asked you to do?”
Her voice was filled with fear and anxiety, clearly showing regret.
Stephanie let out a cold laugh and scolded, “There’s no surveillance backstage, so they can’t catch us. Besides, it’s Milly who’s embarrassing herself, and it’s Milly who’s tarnishing the school’s reputation. We won’t be the ones facing punishment.”
“Hmph!” Stephanie’s expression softened slightly as she saw the girl’s apologetic demeanour. Money could make people do anything. Give them a little benefit, and they’d shamelessly do her bidding.
Even if the principal was angry and wanted to investigate thoroughly, what could he do? After all, it wasn’t her who did it. He couldn’t find any evidence against her.
