[She only brought Felicity on the show because Starlight Entertainment made her.]

[Didn’t you see how awkward she looked when Maxwell told her to be careful who she associates with?]

[She couldn’t explain it on livestream because Felicity isn’t actually her friend.]

[Starlight Entertainment is the real villain here, forcing Nicole to work with someone like that.]

[And by that logic, are Simon and Hannah friends? They came on the show together, too.]

[I don’t think Alicia and Darren were friends before this either.]

Simon and Hannah’s fans were exasperated. [If you’re gonna fight, fine, but leave us out of it.]

The war raged on, and more viewers kept piling in.

Felicity’s reputation tanked, and her follower count started dropping.

People were unfollowing her on X left and right, and some of her fans even jumped ship completely.

Haley watched the disaster unfold and threw several glasses in frustration. She kept cursing Felicity, calling her an idiot over and over.

She immediately contacted the PR department and told them to clean up Felicity’s mess. But the PR team not only refused to handle it, they completely ghosted her.

Apparently, Nicolas had already spoken with the PR manager. He made it clear that Starlight Entertainment was not allowed to target or smear Alicia anymore.

Since Nicolas was on that variety show, the PR department had been watching it too.

They noticed that Nicolas clearly despised Felicity, so there was no way they would help with her damage control.

If they did, Nicolas might come after them later, and they couldn’t afford that kind of trouble.

This left Haley furious and helpless at the same time.

She sensed that something was off with how everything was playing out, and she suspected that Lucent Media had stepped in to help Alicia take down Felicity.

‘How am I supposed to fight against Lucent Media’s PR department on my own?’ she thought bitterly.

It was just like before, when Alicia had been all alone without Starlight Entertainment’s PR support and couldn’t wash away the dirt that had been thrown at her.

Right now, Haley had no way to fix this situation and could only watch helplessly. She just hoped that Felicity would be a little smarter and more rational going forward.

Felicity watched the video replay and spotted exactly what Alicia had pointed out. The mistakes were there, clear as day, and that made her even more furious and embarrassed.

‘I was just starting out back then,’ she thought defensively. ‘A few small mistakes shouldn’t matter. And if Alicia hadn’t pointed them out, no one else would’ve even noticed.’

The realization stung. “This bitch is deliberately targeting me.

But she’d made the mistakes, and there was no denying that.

If she argued back now, she’d be contradicting everything she’d just said to the other trainees. She couldn’t afford to look that hypocritical.

So she shifted topics quickly. “Let’s just continue with team selection.”

She’d backed down again.

While Alicia and Felicity were going at it, Nicole quietly pulled out her phone.

She typed a message into a private group chat with four members. She sent a crying emoji.

Nicole: [Nicolas, Maxwell, help! Save this poor child!]

Nicole: [Felicity is so stupid. This stunt she pulled made everyone avoid choosing us, and now I’m embarrassed, too!]

Nicole: [All the remaining trainees are ranked at the bottom. If we team up with them and bomb the public performance again, it’ll be even worse.]

Nicole: [I don’t care about myself, but I don’t want them to get eliminated because of Felicity.]

The group chat included Nicolas, Maxwell, Caleb, and herself.

She’d created it deliberately.

These three had grown up close with Alicia, sharing years Nicole had never been part of. They’d lived through memories and experiences that didn’t include her, and that had always made her jealous. She was determined to change that dynamic and steal them away at every opportunity.

‘Alicia used to be the one with them, Nicole thought with satisfaction. ‘But from now on, it’ll be me.’

Getting them to help her now would solve multiple problems at once. It would ease her embarrassment and show everyone how much they doted on her.

And as a bonus, it would twist the knife in Alicia’s side just a little bit more.
