Have the assessors of Sandfort City’s Music Association gone crazy? Why did they send an amateur to participate in the competition? Although the host couldn’t understand their actions, he performed his duties well and read out her name. “Last but not least, our final contestant representing Sandfort City is—”
Everybody at the scene held their breath in anticipation, waiting for the host to read out that person’s name. At the same time, the audience watching the live broadcast in Sandfort City was extremely nervous too. The representative of Sandfort City was the embodiment of Sandfort City’s reputation! Nobody knew who was representing Sandfort City this year. Therefore, everybody was filled with anticipation and nervousness.
“Last but not least, our final contestant representing Sandfort City is Janet Jackson!” The host finished his sentence.
Below the stage, the audience that had been talking about the contestants suddenly fell into stunned silence.
“What? Who is Janet Jackson?”
“The person representing Sandfort City is Janet Jackson?”
“What the hell is going on? Is there a mistake?”
“Who is Janet Jackson? I’ve never heard this name before in any of the music circles or the piano circles.”
“Yeah, I’m at a loss too!”
Even Megan, Brian, and the relatives of the Jackson Family were shocked when they heard the announcement.
“Janet Jackson?!”
The relatives of the Jackson Family exclaimed in shock, “Janet Jackson? Isn’t Janet your daughter?”
“That’s right! Has Janet ever learned the piano? Why is she suddenly participating in the competition?”
“What’s going on? Won’t Emily and Janet be facing off against each other again?”
“They competed in the last painting competition. And now, they are competing in this piano competition? What’s going on?!”
“Emily is Hilbert’s protégé while Janet has never learned the piano before. It looks like Emily will be wiping the floor with Janet this time!”
“That’s a huge possibility!”
Meanwhile, Megan was so shocked that she didn’t know how to react. She said in bewilderment, “Why would Janet participate in this competition?”
Brian seemed dumbfounded too. He didn’t understand what was going on. “Is it a contestant with the same name?”
Despite saying that, he didn’t quite believe his words either. After all, not many people in Sandfort City had the surname ‘Jackson’. It was practically impossible to have the exact same name as Janet. But, we didn’t receive any news from Janet about her participation in this competition! Moreover, Emily didn’t tell us that Janet would be participating in this competition either!
Compared to the Jackson Family, the people watching the live broadcast were even more shocked. These people were none other than the citizens of Sandfort City and the medical students of Woodsbury University.
“F*ck! Did I hear that correctly?! Is Janet representing Sandfort City?!”
“Damn! I thought Janet took some time off to go to Yobril to watch the competition. I can’t believe she is actually one of the contestants of the competition!”
“Although I like Janet quite a lot, isn’t she unsuited for this competition? She will surely be defeated by Emily!”
“That’s right. If she loses the competition, how embarrassing would that be?”
“Why did she decide to join the competition? Besides, are the assessors of Sandfort City’s Music Association idiots?! Why did they agree to it?!”
“If Janet loses in the preliminary round, all the goodwill she accumulated before this will be gone in a flash.”
“Yeah. Not only will she embarrass herself, but she will also embarrass Sandfort City!”
On the other side, two men sat in the back seat of a red Ferrari. They were holding a tablet in their hands and staring fixedly at the live broadcast.
“We should be able to make it.”
“It’ll be okay. Don’t be too nervous.” Gordon smiled, crossing his leg over his knee.
Over the past few days, Gordon and Walter had been recording a musical variety show and arrived in Yobril one day late as a consequence.
