Hope It's Not Too Late to Love

Chapter 314

One hour had gone by, and Melanie, who was the last contestant, finally went onstage. The song she chose today was similar to her previous choice. It was a love song.

'Suddenly, I'm looking forward to Melanie's performance. After all, as soon as she appears, President Luke will start giving barbed remarks.'

'Is this the start of a dramatic family fight among the wealthy?'

'I'm quite keen to find out what sort of troublemaking antics she's up to today.'

Fortunately for Melanie, her choice of song today was a safe one for her. After she had performed the song, she calmly listened to the judges give their comments.

Jeffrey commented on the professional aspect, "From a professional outlook, there is still room for improvement, so you've got to keep working harder."

Ellie agreed with Jeffrey’s opinion, "You've got a huge room for improvement. Thanks."

They gave brief comments and average scores to avoid outright offending her.

In response, Melanie expressed her gratitude, "Thank you, teachers."

As for Vania, there was a gentle smile on her face as she looked at Melanie and commented, "Your current performance isn't as good as your previous one. The song that you performed just now was

mainly to express sweet love, but your performance relayed to us the feeling of troubled love."

The host went along with Vania's words and continued, "As such, what's your decision, Ms. Greyson?”

Vania lifted the card in her hand and purposely created some suspense by taking her time to voice out, "I'll give a passing score."

Melanie could only grit her teeth and thank Vania, "Thanks, Ms. Greyson."

However, Melanie was clearly displeased, and she thought, Why does Vania, who's such a pretentious person, get the right to decide whether I get to stay in this competition?

Finally, under the expectant eyes of the crowd, it was Hanson's turn to give his comment. Everyone was keen to find out what Hanson had to say this time.

However, Hanson continued to stroke his chin with his left hand, and he seemed to be engrossed in his thoughts. He was in no rush to speak up as he moved his hand gradually. Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

At that point, even a person with poor vision could clearly see the ring on his finger.

Onstage, Melanie naturally saw that too, and her expression turned instantly. She clenched her fists tightly as a wave of emotions hit her. Hanson has a ring on his finger. I can’t believe that he actually has a ring on! Did he get a similar ring for Vania too?

Melanie's eyes instinctively went toward Vania’s hand searchingly, but Vania had her hands placed below the table, so Melanie couldn’t see it at all.

Just then, Melanie was in a flustered state as Hanson spoke up coldly, "Why hasn't she been eliminated?" His voice was as cold as an icicle and Melanie remained frozen onstage.

Similarly, the audience watching this program was significantly stunned too.

'President Luke is generally a ruthless man of few words.'

Due to Hanson's comment, Melanie’s name appeared on the trending chart on Twitter once again.

Somehow, the thoughts of the people on the Internet were seemingly hard to fathom as their comments suddenly took a turn.

'Could he be trying to increase Melanie’s popularity?'

'Each time President Luke gave his comment, the public speculation on Melanie would hit a record high, so this is in fact an advantage for her too.'

'The person before me seems to be quite perceptive.'

The host stood on stage awkwardly, and this was definitely his most troubling moment throughout his professional career.

The awkward sensation in the room grew and he finally spoke up, "So, what's your decision, President Luke?"

Without any consideration, Hanson replied, "Elimination."

The crowd was rendered speechless at that point.

Meanwhile, Melanie tried hard to suppress her tears, and she bowed before leaving the stage.

It was a good thing that everyone’s performance had ended; otherwise, it would be quite hard for the competition to proceed successfully.

The host continued the session, "Alright, let's take a break in between for a moment, and we'll be right back after tallying up the results."

The so-called interval was actually just a short break for the judges and the contestants in the same location, and the production crew had arranged for some brief interviews to increase the interaction between the press and the participants of this program.

The contestants and the guests sat in a circle on a round couch. As soon as they took their seats, the backstage crew came forward to serve them some drinks. "Thank you for everyone's hard work. The director has arranged juices for everyone. Best wishes to you all and good luck in achieving great scores."
