As expected, the trainees present didn’t hesitate and shouted loudly, “Yes, please.” They all wanted to hear Alicia’s singing for themselves.
They had all searched online before, but there were very few videos of Alicia singing or dancing.
Alicia was mostly heard in group vocals or harmonies, and during dance routines, she was always positioned in the corner. The camera hardly ever focused on her, almost as if she wasn’t there at all.
Maxwell even slammed his hand on the table and shouted, “Yeah p>
Everyone present, along with the audience, went silent for a moment, thinking, ‘And they say he’s not a simp p>
Nicolas didn’t slam the table, but he laughed and joined in, saying, “Yes p>
Although Alicia had entered the entertainment industry to follow Nicolas’s footsteps, by the time she joined LUMIA, they had already had a fight.
At that time, Nicolas had been so focused on filming that he barely paid attention to her activities in LUMIA. He figured that since Alicia had signed with Starlight Entertainment and her manager was Haley, Haley would surely take care of Alicia.
Nicolas hadn’t expected Haley to be a backstabber. Not only did she fail to look out for Alicia, but Haley deliberately sabotaged Alicia and tarnished her reputation.
Now Nicolas was curious to see what Alicia sounded like when she first entered the industry.
Simon and Hannah were curious too, and they said, “Yes p>
Nicole didn’t particularly want to watch, but given the situation, objecting was pointless.
Plus, in front of Nicolas and the others, Nicole had always played the role of someone who wanted to be on good terms with Alicia. Nicole pretended not to understand why Alicia always rejected and disliked her.
Nicole had built the persona of someone who, despite feeling powerless, was making every effort to be Alicia’s friend. If Nicole spoke against it now, that carefully constructed image would collapse.
So, Nicole forced a smile and echoed, “Yes.” Inside, however, she was fuming at Haley.
Nicole thought, ‘Didn’t Haley say she deleted all the videos from before Alicia got blacklisted? How does Marley even have this video? And why now, of all times, would he show it p>
Nicole couldn’t help but think of Jason and suspected that Lucent Media’s PR team had orchestrated this behind the scenes.
Nicole felt an intense irritation bubbling up inside her. She thought, ‘Back in middle school, Jason and Alicia were rivals. Why the sudden change of heart? Why did he sign Alicia and take on the role of her manager p>
She continued thinking, ‘I need to find a way to get closer to Jason later. I absolutely cannot let him team up with Alicia and help her clean up her name p>

If Marley hadn’t brought it up, Felicity might have almost forgotten this incident. But now that it came to mind, the memory left a sharp impression.
Back when LUMIA had just formed, Alicia had been the prettiest member and hence the most popular. That day during a live broadcast, Alicia sang a song, and the chatroom exploded with praise.
The performances of the other four members were completely overshadowed by Alicia. At the time, they all felt a twinge of resentment but didn’t show it.
They didn’t think they were worse than Alicia; they just believed they didn’t know how to work the crowd like she did.
Later, as the other four members gradually showcased their talents and gained popularity, that video disappeared. They all assumed the manager had taken it down, but they were secretly pleased with the
result.
Felicity hadn’t expected the production team to dig up that video now. Still, she didn’t oppose it. She thought, ‘Fine, let them play the video. My performance will definitely outshine Alicia’s anyway p>
With all the guests agreeing, the Radiance: The Idol Journey team immediately copied the video and projected it onto the giant screen on stage. Everyone turned to watch, and the audience kept their eyes glued to the screen through the livestream.
When LUMIA had formed, Felicity had been designated the center, so she went on stage first.
She chose an upbeat, high–energy song, singing and dancing at the same time. There was no denying it that LUMIA had become a top–tier girl group for a reason. Their talent was undeniable.
Nicole’s dance moves were powerful, and her vocals were steady with controlled breath. Overall, her performance was impressive.
Next were the other three members. One performed a robot dance, showing strong rhythm. Two others focused on singing–one a high–pitched, technically flashy song, and the other an intense, rhythmic track. Both delivered solid performances, each with distinctive vocals.
Finally, Alicia appeared. She sat on a high stool, holding a guitar, singing as she played. The first thing the audience noticed was how strikingly beautiful she looked.
Alicia sang a light, lyrical song. On the surface, it seemed simple, not particularly challenging, but when Alicia started singing with that smile, everyone felt refreshed and touched. It sounded absolutely beautiful.
Her voice wasn’t just pleasant; it drew listeners into the song’s carefree rhythm. It felt like going on a sunny outing or a fun little trip. The whole song carried a bright, cheerful energy that made people feel happy just by listening.
The audience noticed that Alicia didn’t rely on flashy techniques, but she put her heart into it and made the song come alive. When it ended, everyone felt genuinely amazed.
[This is too good p>
[No wonder Sean loves this song and still remembers it. I love it too p>
[Who exactly said Alicia can’t sing? If this is bad, then what are we p>
