Cedric felt a bit embarrassed glancing towards Orion, but noticed that the man closed the audition list with a sense of finality, as if the real show was just about to start.
Chairman Lockwood seemed particularly eager for this last auditionee.
"Who's the last one?"
Assistant said, "Xanthea."
Xanthea?
He vaguely remembered her as the surprise winner on "The Masked Singer", stunning in appearance, but her affluent air didn't quite match the character of Phoenix, and her performance was likely to be just another predictable singing act.
"This’s the piece she's chosen for her audition. It's about to start."
Kevin flipped through her profile, and when he saw the “Audition Piece Chosen by Actor” section, he was stunned, "She’s chosen to perform…"
Before he could finish, a deep, resonant roar of a heavy motorcycle echoed from a distance.
Everyone looked up to see a futuristic blue halo motorcycle speeding down the track, ridden by a striking young woman in a black tank top and cargo shorts, her arms wrapped in bandages and her ponytail swinging high.
Her tall figure, long legs, and the contrast between her pale, delicate skin and the dark cargo were visually striking!
A circular metal pendant hung at her distinct collarbone, blending perfectly with the otherwise incongruous heavy bike.
