But since he’d called her out directly, she had no choice but to respond. “I don’t have any objections either,” she said.
Then, trying to salvage some dignity, she added, “I’m not interested in teaming up with those eight trainees anyway p>
The truth was, Felicity had plenty of objections and even wanted to argue against it.
But everyone else had agreed, and even Nicole had gone along with it, so her opposition wouldn’t matter.
What really bothered her was that she’d noticed Nicolas and Maxwell were way too biased toward Alicia and seemed to actively dislike her.
If Felicity went against them now and completely pissed them off, it would definitely hurt her career.
After weighing the pros and cons, she decided she had to suck it up.
This second cave–in not only disappointed her fans but also made the audience’s impression of her even
worse.
Now, people saw her as someone with a bad temper who thought too highly of herself but couldn’t back it up and folded the moment things got tough.
At this point, all she had left was her talent.
This time, Lucent Media’s PR department jumped in immediately.
Meanwhile, Starlight Entertainment’s PR department kept hesitating and struggling with what to do.
Nicolas‘ unclear attitude made it impossible for them to figure out the right move, and that delay cost them the best window to clean up Nicole’s image.
This whole situation flipped the script on Alicia, Nicole, and Felicity’s reputations. Public perception had completely reversed.
It just goes to show how much a good PR team matters.
Chase smiled and said, “Well then, we’ll respect your decision p>
Ross and his team quickly prepared the paper slips for the draw and placed them in a box.
Inside were only three group numbers, and they brought it first to the trainees sitting behind Alicia.
They went by ranking order, so Sean reached in first and pulled out a slip. He unfolded it and saw the number four written on it, and his usually stern face broke into a smile.
He held it up to the camera and said, “I’m still in Ms. Delaney’s group, so I don’t have to move p>
Anyone could tell he was thrilled.
The remaining trainees grew anxious and hopeful as they watched.

to voucher’s.
Two more people drew Alicia’s group number, and both of them couldn’t help grinning as they high–fived each other in celebration.
The other five didn’t get Alicia’s group, but three of them drew Nicolas‘ group, and they seemed pretty happy with that result.
The two who drew Simon’s group looked a little disappointed at first, but then visibly relaxed. ‘At least we didn’t get Felicity’s group,‘ they thought. That was good enough.
Next, the production team added slips with the number one to the box and had the other trainees draw.
This time, four people from the top twenty rankings drew group one, including Elijah, who had previously ranked first in popularity.
The moment those four saw the number on their slips, their hearts sank. ‘Why is my luck so terrible?‘ each of them thought.
But no matter how unwilling they felt inside, they still managed to control their expressions and smiled as they held up their slips, announcing they’d drawn Team 1.
The trainees forced bright smiles that made the audience feel both sympathetic and amused at the same
time.
Their fans wanted to cry.
But since the groups were already assigned, the fans couldn’t trash–talk in the comments because it would hurt their favorite contestants.
Nicole and Felicity’s fans especially loved to start drama, and nobody wanted to trigger a fan war.
So they could only leave half–hearted comments like: [Team 1 isn’t bad either. The two ladies have skills. too p>
Soon, all four groups finished their guest–trainee pairings.
The trainees took their seats behind their assigned guests.
With the selection complete, Chase and Marley were ready to stir things up.
