The Heiress Strikes Back

319 Biological Father

Sharon waved enthusiastically at the audience. Suddenly, she had goosebumps. Who is it?! Someone in the crowd was staring at her intently. That gaze made Sharon feel a terrifying chill.

She felt like a prey that was about to be eaten, but she had never been a lamb that was at the mercy of others.

Sharon was also looking for who was observing her with that gaze in the crowd!

Gabriel sat in the back seat and looked at Sharon, who was in front of the camera. He didn’t know if he was talking to someone else or talking to himself. “As expected of my daughter. She can still get so much attention alone. After cutting off most of her story lines in the show, we still had to reduce her votes to get her to this lower ranking. She’s a potential stock like her mother.”

Director Xander looked at Gabriel and recalled that during the last round, this guy had personally called and made it very clear that he only wanted Sharon to stay in the competition for one more round in order to suppress her popularity. She would naturally be eliminated when the top 10 to top 5 elimination happened.

How did she provoke Gabriel? Gabriel had called him personally to ask him to suppress her.

“Next, please choose your mentors and songs or stage according to the order of the rankings~” The host took out a tray with the songs and performances of a few mentors.

“Everyone, take the selected song to the corresponding color block area. Hand the number plate to the mentor and you’ll have successfully chosen the song!”

“Contestant Melinda, please come forward-”

Without any hesitation, Melinda walked straight to Benjamin. “Mr. Benjamin, please guide me. I want to be the Best Actress too.”

Whitney walked towards Leomord. Although she was in second place, there was not much happiness on her face. However, why did this person choose a sweet ballad?

“I thought you wouldn’t like songs like mine. Do you suddenly want to challenge a new style?”

“Why do you care so much?” Whitney and Leomord whispered to each other.

They each chose their music. When it was Sharon’s turn, she no longer had the choice. She walked straight to Levi.

“Sigh, it’s a pity that I’m not good at playing and singing,” Levisaid self-deprecatingly. Compared to other actors, Levi was actually better at styling and design. This skill of his was actually useless to Sharon.

“It’s okay. I think you are very good too. The song you chose might suit me better.” Sharon shook her head.

Including Director Xander, there were a total of five judges, and Xenia chose the movie director, Xander.

“Sharon, don’t think that you can reach the end of the competition just because a few people like you. I think you’ll not make it out of the top five!” In a place where the camera wasn’t able to capture them, Xenia mocked Sharon, her words filled with threat.

Sharon, on the other hand, didn’t mind. She looked at Xenia and smiled. “It’s always better than some people that no one likes. Let me guess how you’ll advance this time? How many old men will you sleep with?”

“You!” Xenia was about to flare up when Sharon pointed at the moving camera and smiled brightly.

Xenia could only suppress the anger in her heart and face the camera with a very strange smile.

Sharon knew that she would play some tricks, but she didn’t know if Director Xenia would care about her.

“Now that the selection of groups has ended, each group will have five days to discuss with their mentors to come up with a suitable style and stage design. There will be no judges for the elimination performance from top five to top three. The audience will vote to choose the three best performances. We hope that everyone can contribute to a wonderful performance that lives up to the name of being the ‘best’.”

As expected, the broadcast of this episode caused an uproar on the Internet. Everyone was becoming more and more confused about the development of the casting competition.

“Melinda deserves to be first! Her acting skills are great! Let’s go!”

[Sharon is fifth? The production team must be crazy! Someone must have been suppressing her votes!]

[Xenia is really strange. She can even practice singing and dancing if she’s not good at them. However, if she’s not as beautiful as the others, she should just reincarnate! I can’t believe that Selena lost to her!]

At this moment, the experienced gossip fans couldn’t help but pay attention to various topics. Some of them even guessed that Sharon’s votes had been tampered with.

In the mentor’s room, Quentin walked towards Gabriel, who was sitting on the sofa, in his bathrobe.

“Why are you still watching? Can’t bear to suppress your daughter’s votes?” Quentin was originally still suspicious of Sharon’s true identity, but he found out that Gabriel had been suppressing Sharon’s popularity recently.

“They do look alike...” Gabriel didn’t listen to Quentin at all. His gaze was locked on Sharon as she played, as if he was looking at someone else.

Since he liked her so much, he shouldn’t have ruined her career back then... After so many years, he still only had that woman in his heart. Back then, he had spent so much effort to make Lynn fall from her pedestal, and this was the outcome he had gotten?
