Felicity hadn’t expected Alicia to fire back so directly. “Are you questioning my professionalism p>
Alicia couldn’t help but laugh. “Ms. Sterling, are you sure you even have that? Besides, this isn’t the first or second time you’ve taken your anger out on people you don’t like.
“I’m not about to let the people who chose me get picked apart by you,” Alicia continued. “That would be the biggest injustice to them. If it affects their rankings after the public performance, I’d feel terrible p>
She spread her hands. “So that’s my condition. If you don’t agree, then I won’t agree to redraw p>
Alicia’s fierce protectiveness moved all eight people who had chosen her group.
They’d been worried that if they redrew and got assigned to Felicity’s group, they’d be in for hell.
Given Felicity’s temper and pettiness, she’d definitely take it out on them.
‘Alicia is really amazing,‘ they thought.
Now they all hoped that when they redrew, they’d get assigned to her group again.
Having someone protect them like this made the other contestants envious.
The others realized they were stuck.
Even if they didn’t want to go to Felicity’s group, if they got drawn there, they’d have to accept it.
Their resentment toward the Team 1 mentors only grew. If they hadn’t stirred up trouble, none of this chaos would be happening.
But everyone was more focused on what the other mentors thought, especially Maxwell and Nicolas. All eyes turned to them.
Before Chase could say anything, Maxwell spoke up, “So we don’t participate in drawing one group? That’s nothing. We’re fine with it p>
If they objected now, they could forget about ever repairing their relationship with Alicia.
Nicolas added, “We can guarantee we won’t target anyone, but we can’t speak for Ms. Sterling. So let’s just settle it this way p>
He went straight to proposing a solution. “Let’s redraw. Team 4’s trainees go first. After they’re done, we’ll
add Team 1 back in and continue p>
This way, both Nicole and Alicia could save face, and they wouldn’t have to be stuck in the middle
anymore.
But what he didn’t know was that Nicole felt so wronged right now she wanted to cry.
‘What are they doing?‘ she thought. ‘Whatever Alicia says goes? Then what was the point of me asking them for help earlier? I feel like such a joke. Where’s the exclusive favoritism they promised to show everyone p>

Nicole wanted them to fight with Alicia directly, like they used to, not grovel and try to make peace with
her.
‘What’s going on?‘ she thought, and the feeling that something had slipped out of her control made her uneasy.
Nicole had no idea that Alicia had already told Nicolas and Maxwell she was cutting ties with them.
That was why Nicolas and Maxwell were terrified of pushing Alicia too far and losing any chance to fix things.
After all, they’d never seen her this cold and resolute before.
Simon and Hannah couldn’t help but admire Alicia right now.
She really had guts, saying all this on a live stream.
But then again, her reputation was already trashed, so she probably didn’t care if Nicolas‘ fans or anyone else came after her.
They’d been the ones tearing her apart the most anyway.
Simon said, “Our team’s fine with whatever p>
The viewers jumped on that immediately. [Simon’s group is totally just going with the flow p>
[Simon and Hannah are having the time of their lives watching this drama. Every time they have to choose, they’re like ‘we’re good with anything p>
[I caught them eating this up earlier, too p>
[Now the problem’s back in Team I’s lap p>
[I bet Nicole’s gonna say she’s fine with it too. She’s been playing the good guy this whole time p>
[I noticed that too. She never gets her hands dirty p>
Everyone turned to look at Nicole, waiting for her answer.
