RankNovelChapter 59:The audience was deep in thought, especially the contestants who had not been classified.
Murmurs spread as doubt began to take hold.
Maybe the contest wasn't as fair as they thought.
Melany is right.
Scarlet Snake cout of nowhere years ago, making waves in the perfworld.
How could someone who has been away for so long be just a young woman, one person murmured.
After losing that year, | did everything | could to locate the finalists.
| hired private investigators, spent a fortune, and still found nothing.
The first contest wasn't supposed to be confidential.
How could a judge recognize a contestant unless there was a violation of the rules or, worse yet, intentional
cheating.
added another voice.
It was moments like this that revealed the darker side of human nature.
It was easier for them to believe in conspiracies in a supposedly rigid and fair competition than to admit their
own shortcomings.

Melany knew exactly how to stoke those feelings, how to twist people's insecurities.
And now, Allison was caught in the middle, tainted by association, facing hostility no matter what she did.
Especially since she had no hard evidence to clear her name.
Rebecca, upon hearing these unfounded accusations, threw her wine glass on the floor, breaking it into pieces.
Spreading lies without any proof Let's see if you're so bold when you get slapped with a letter from a lawyer, she
shouted.
How could Melany still have the nerve to argue after such audacity? Rebecca had seen a lot of nonsense in her
life, but to face such audacity It lit a fire in his chest.
Beside him, Mack, visibly bristling at Melany's accusations, clenched his fists, his face flushed with anger.
I'm too old to protect someone who doesn't deserve it.
If someone has talent, | would accept them as a direct apprentice myself.
Someone dares to question my integrity.
It was strange to see Mack so irritated.
| met this girl by chance.
After the contest, | gave her a lower score than the others.
According to the regulations, the judges must not know anything about the contestants.
But she approached me, eager to learn.
Mack had noticed Scarlet Snake for her incessant curiosity and desire for knowledge.
He was one of those rare once-in-a-lifettalents that just needed a little push to fully understand something.
Such brilliance was hard to find, and when he saw Allison...This year's ghad been exciting, but who could
have predicted that a minor incident would turn into such a mess.
Mack's words struck a chord with the audience.
Surely a man of his stature would not risk his reputation with a lie, especially when there were other, more
honorable ways to guide a budding star.
With both sides adamant, the audience wavered, caught between the conflicting narratives.
Allison gently calmed Rebecca's anger before turning to Mack, offering him a slight bow.
"I'm sorry, sir, that you were dragged into this because of me.
" Then he straightened, and his gaze fixed on Melany with an intensity that sent a shiver down everyone's spine.
Whether | am Scarlet Snake or not does not change the fact that your perfis not a tribute, it is a blatant
copy.
And, conveniently, | have proof.
Melany scoffed, her voice stubborn.
That's impossible.

However, Allison's unwavering gaze made her instinctively retreat.
It may have been her imagination, but for the first time, Melany saw Allison in a different light.
No longer a simple housewife, Allison seemed like someone much more dangerous, someone who had faced life
and death situations.
That gaze, sharp as a dagger, seemed ready to cut her into pieces.
Kellan's voice cut through the tension, cold and commanding.
Accuse the Lloyd family of lying and cheating Who do you think you are? His dark eyes gleamed with cold fury,
and his presence was suffocating.
Melany, you have a lot of nerve, dragging my family's nthrough the mud.
You really believed that the Lloyds wouldn't defend their honor.
The coldness of his voice, combined with Allison's penetrating gaze, left Melany trembling.
That look.
they both had it.
At that moment, Kellan and Allison looked incredibly alike.
His cold, predatory eyes made it impossible for Melany to look at them.
