As soon as Sophie sorted out the penalty fee issue, they could all leave together.
"Alright, you just need to pretend you know nothing and follow the plan."
Sophie was reluctant to say more, and Julian didn't press further. From a distance, Johnny called out to Julian, "Julian! Captain! Let's go!"
Julian hesitated but eventually got into the car.
Skye was in another vehicle and noticed Sophie hadn't boarded yet, so she approached and asked, "Do you want to ride with me later?"
"No, I'm not going to the show."
"What? You're not going to the show?"
Skye was taken aback.
The show they were about to join was a talent competition. It was one thing for the talented Shirley to be dismissed, but now Sophie was also not participating.
"How could you not tell me about such a big thing in advance?" Skye frowned and reached for her phone. "I need to discuss this with Mr. Gordon before making a decision."
Sophie took out her phone and placed the chat history with Gordon from yesterday directly in front of Skye. "From now on, please follow my lead."
Reading the chat history before her, Skye immediately put down her phone. She said solemnly, "Yes, Ms. Sophie."
Meanwhile, the trainees had already arrived at the program's makeup room. Since they were going on the show, the makeup artists were much better than before.
Jean occasionally looked towards the makeup room door, dissatisfied, "Why hasn't Sophie come yet? Is she not planning to participate?"
"Thatg might be for the best. This is a talent show, after all. One less person means one less competitor."
"But we are a team. Without Sophie, doesn't that mean we're one person short? What if our stage performance is terrible, and we get eliminated?"
"Being eliminated as a team is fine. We have so many people in one team, and how can you expect the audience to focus on anyone in particular? Isn't Sophie not being here a good thing?"
The group buzzed with discussion.
Soon, the director's team came in and announced, "Make sure the makeup is done meticulously today! Mr. Burke and Mr. Ricardo will be inspecting later!"
This news made the already excited group even more thrilled.
"Mr. Burke is also here? This show is definitely going to be a hit."
"Mr. Burke couldn't possibly be coming for Sophie, could he?"
"They've been separated for a while now, and with Sophie nowhere to be seen, how could Mr. Burke possibly be here for her?"
