“You actually know him, don’t you?”
Jane Gardner took the key from Selena Lott, opened the door for her, and turned around, her voice faint.
She knew early on when she met Codie Wei that Codie Wei and John Lott definitely had some kind of connection.
And Selena Lott’s subsequent reaction confirmed her suspicions.
This night.
Jane Gardner and Selena Lott both stayed up.
Both told each other what they were up to.
As Jane Gardner guessed, John Lott was conceived by Selena Lott and Codie Wei when they were drunk.
Only, Selena Lott knew Codie Wei a long time ago, but Codie Wei never knew her.
After that night, Selena Lott did not appear in his world again, and gave birth and raised the child alone.
This passed, it was five years.
“I didn’t know you and Zachary Irwin had a story like that! We’re really in the same boat.”
Raising her drink, Selena Lott clinked with Jane Gardner and tilted her head to finish it.
“You’re in a different situation than I am. Did you really decide to raise John alone and never get married?”
Jane Gardner had learned the hard way through the days she had lived with Selena Lott that it wasn’t easy being a single mom.
If it were up to her, she wouldn’t have been able to hold it together.
Selena Lott, on the other hand, lasted five years.
“He doesn’t remember me, much less love me, so how am I supposed to get married and give John a full family!”
With a bitter smile, Selena Lott remembers the first time she met Codie Wei ten years ago.
The image of him politely draping his clothes on himself as a gentleman, rescuing her from embarrassment.
At that time, she had just come of age, and her father had given her a coming-of-age dance.
She was pushed into the fountain by the others, and her beautiful white princess dress was soaked through.
It was him, like a god, who carried herself out of the fountain.
He gave her the first light of her obscure youth.
Go forward and gently hug Selena Lott, Jane Gardner can read the love in her eyes.
They, both in love with someone who does not love them.
And, their love, are afraid to say to people.
The difference is that Jane Gardner decided to escape from the misery, Selena Lott but still drowned in it.
The next day.
Jane Gardner was still sleeping when Selena Lott woke her up with a push.
“Jane, look at the news today! You and Zachary Irwin are in the news!”
Selena Lott grabbed her toothbrush in one hand and her phone in the other, spitting out her mouthwash in a few tries.
She rushed to call a media reporter she knew to ask who had sent the video out.
Jane Gardner, on the other hand, picked up the phone and was shaken when she saw the content of the video.
Who else was there yesterday besides her and Zachary Irwin?
Thinking that Ivel Day had been there afterwards, Jane Gardner listed her as the first suspect.
“Jane, I asked around and it was Kailee Cyrus who sold the video to the media. What a surprise, fireproof against your own artist!”
Selena Lott gasped and changed her clothes, woke John Lott up and finished dressing and washing him.
“I’m sending John to kindergarten now, you have to prepare for the post-contest today, just stay at the office, remember, don’t go anywhere until I come back!”
Jane Gardner smiled helplessly as she watched Selena Lott leave.
She really didn’t think that she was so annoying.
It had only been a few days, and she had offended another person!
According to Selena Lott’s instructions, Jane Gardner simply ate breakfast and went back to Sea Art Entertainment’s training room.
There were twenty people who attended the training before, and after a day of selection yesterday, there were only ten today.
And Kailee Cyrus was not among them, which means she was eliminated during the audition.
“Hey, look, she’s the woman who seduced Ascension Entertainment president Zachary Irwin in the news!”
“So it’s her, no wonder Selena Lott always takes special care of her, and no wonder she got through the audition. Hey, those of us who don’t have a backstage, we’d better be good and practice our songs.”
“I say, since you’ve got Zachary Irwin, why are you still fighting with us for the promotion spot?
Jane Gardner listened to their insults and turned around to go to the grocery store next door.
“You’re Jane Gardner, aren’t you?”
As soon as she turned around, three women who had just come of age stopped Jane Gardner.
The woman in the lead ringed her hand, her face arrogant.
“Who are you?”
It’s clear that they’re up to no good, but Jane Gardner has no idea she’s become the public enemy.
“Did you know that Zachary Irwin is Sister Ivel’s boyfriend? You have not even debuted yet and you dare to steal the man of your seniors, you guys ruin her face for me, see how she can still seduce people in the future!”
The other two women were holding a bottle of some kind of liquid and were trying to grab Jane Gardner.
Jane Gardner was prepared and took out the mace from her bag and sprayed them in the face.
“Why are you so useless? Give me the stuff!”
Seeing this, the woman in the lead pulled her companion, grabbed the bottle herself and twisted it away, to spray Jane Gardner’s face.
“Who are you guys? What are you doing? Security! What kind of officer are you? Get them out of here now!”
Selena Lott came back, saw the scene in front of her, and hastily pulled Jane Gardner behind her.
She herself blocked in front of her.
At once, a bottle of black liquid was poured over Selena Lott’s clothes, and a foul odor emanated.
“This time, is to give you a little lesson, next time if you still dare to do interfere with Sister Ivel and Zachary Irwin, we splashed is not herring juice!”
Haha laughing, the head of the woman saw the security guards coming, and hurriedly ran away.
Jane Gardner looked at Selena Lott, who was in a mess, and her eyes rolled with touching emotions.
She was a person who knew how to be grateful, Selena Lott was good to herself today, she would be better to her tomorrow.
“I’m fine, ahem, just a little too smelly. jane Gardner, congratulations, you’re on fire before you even debut. It’s not a very kind fire, but it’s a step towards success John.”
Seeing that Jane Gardner was deeply moved, Selena Lott joked to liven up the atmosphere.
Going up and picking Selena Lott up, Jane Gardner ignored the fact that her clothes were also stained with herring juice.
“I’m going to make it, believe me, we’re going to make it.”
If before, Jane Gardner was just trying to enter the entertainment industry, at this moment, she is firm.
The more Zachary Irwin tried to stop her, the more she moved up the ladder.
The more Ivel Day tries to discredit her, the more she will stand on her head.
Tell her that every time she is denigrated, it will only make her fly higher and go farther.
She would show those who had bullied her and plotted against her that she would have her revenge!
She will retaliate with a more perfect, more successful version of herself!
Let them go crazy with jealousy, envy, and hate when they see themselves.
“I believe you.”
Selena Lott swept towards the nine people who were standing still, watching the show, and her cold eyes sank hard.
The most important thing she looks for in an artist is the character of the artist.
And today, they watched others hurt Jane Gardner but none of them came forward to help, not to mention talent, in terms of character, they all failed.
Others noticed Selena Lott’s eyes, some turned their backs and continued practicing, some looked away from her.
But more often, they tilted their heads and confronted her.
The meaning is clear: we just won’t help her, what can you do to us!
Not to continue to tangle with them, Selena Lott and Jane Gardner both went to the shower and changed into new clothes.
After this experience, Selena Lott didn’t dare to let Jane Gardner practice with them again, so she gave her personal office to her.
Jane Gardner also worked very hard, learning all the singing, lyric writing and dancing that the company taught her.
In addition, she had graduated from the University of A with a degree in Chinese and had practiced yoga at Maravilla for several years after her marriage, so she was able to learn.
Soon after the audition, the second round of competition took place.
The auditions were held in Dragon City, and the second round was 50 to 10.
Compared to the audition, which only required self-introduction and a simple song of less than three minutes, the requirements for the second round were much higher.
Not only were there requirements in terms of costumes and props, but the contestants were also required to simulate the stage and sing a song in its entirety.
During this period, the judges observed the participants’ singing level, their stage presence and their ability to deal with any sudden situation.
Jane Gardner did not dare to slacken off, and with the company’s intensive training, she was able to perform perfectly on the second round of the competition.
Thus, after one day of competition, the top 10 singers of the Dragon City Best Singer Competition were announced.
Only two people from Selena Lott’s company Sea Art Entertainment advanced.
One of them was Jane Gardner.
