When I Was a Wallflower (Leo and Amelie) novel Chapter 243

“Surely it’s not still Mr. Alston?” a reporter asked.

“Okay, enough with the guessing. Pay more attention to our program and my performance, please.” Elyse pretended to be embarrassed and smilingly waved her hands as she entered the dressing room.

Her assistant came running over to touch up her makeup.

She closed her eyes and instructed emotionlessly, “Make the color darker.”

She knew that many people watched ‘Show Your Love’ although it was only a variety show. Among them were some famous directors, investors, and bigwigs of new media platforms. She could get their attention if she performed well.

She would never have to worry about her path as a celebrity anymore if that happened.

Elyse realized she was the best person she should depend on. She wanted to get famous before Leo found out that Ellen was not the one he owed his sight to.

Even though today could only be regarded as a warm-up before her real battle, it was very important.

Twenty minutes later, the show officially started in the studio.

A well-known emcee in a white dress and a male host in a blue suit came out and enthusiastically introduced the members who had arrived today.

‘Show Your Love’ was a program about secret admirers. The participants would mainly go through the completion of specific cooperative tasks to show themselves off to their unrequited love, so as to finally achieve the goal of making their secret love public.

Five female artists appeared on the show today.

They took the stage through a group dance.

Elyse had changed into a beautiful and sexy dress to passionately dance with several other artists.

It was only a short interlude and yet, the performance earned a passionate round of applause and screams from the audience.

The corners of Elyse’s mouth curled upward when she heard someone yelling her name.

It seems I haven’t been forgotten.

The other artists who came here were all celebrities who had just participated in a hit drama, whereas she hadn’t done anything.

Noticing this, the audience began to discuss and speculate about how she got in.

Elyse would love for everyone to speculate more. The more they guessed, the more her name was mentioned and the more attention she would receive.

“You ladies danced so well that I almost passed out from watching you!” The male host came over with a smile and sighed.

The hostess stood next to Elyse as she announced, “We have to specifically introduce this guest of ours. Even though she hasn’t developed in the country in the past few years, her previous works have gotten the attention of many.”

Clips of Elyse’s works that matched the hostess’ words were displayed on the big screen.

She was the only one who received such honor among the five artists.

“What’s going on? Why is she the only one being introduced?” someone in the audience asked in confusion.

A person who knew the ropes of the industry replied, “Isn’t that obvious? She must have been sent in by an investor.”

“How powerful of an investor are they to be able to send someone in?”

“Of course, it’s the most powerful one. Haven’t you heard? Yummy Tummy Beverage is not the most important investor this time. It’s Genesis Company.” The person waved the Yummy Tummy Beverage in their hand.

To promote Yummy Tummy Beverage, the company placed its products everywhere on and off the stage.

“Genesis Company does not advertise and they only have one requirement, which is to add someone in.”

“Wow! I’m envious.”

The gossip-loving crowd had always loved watching the rich spend money to gain a beauty’s smile.

Even though Elyse couldn’t hear everyone’s discussion while she stood on the stage, she clearly felt the audience’s eyes on her.

Her smile continued to deepen in satisfaction. She could already imagine herself being the center of attention tonight!

She then closed her eyes to enjoy the moment.

“The five on stage are all women of rare beauty. Your good looks and outstanding talents have created countless images on film and touched thousands of people.” After the female host finished speaking, the host followed suit. “But there is one person who has won over tens of millions of fans with her talent alone. Even after leaving the industry for four years, the number of her fans has not decreased after her comeback. She even has more fans than ever! This is the sixth, and last, special guest that we have arranged to join us today.”

The host deliberately kept the audience guessing.

The audience thought that there would only be five celebrities onstage today, but now that there was an additional one whom the host so vividly described, the crowd was in an immediate uproar.

“He’s talking about Foxy, isn’t he?”

“Foxy came too?”

“I thought that she never participates in variety shows!”

While everyone was still guessing, the closed door on the stage slowly opened. A snow-white mask slowly appeared from the depths of the blue light.

Elyse’s works initially displayed on the screen were replaced by this mask in an instant.

It was snow-white, pure, and vivid.

The mask only exposed a pair of clear eyes that people could get lost in.

“It really is Foxy! She’s here!”
