CHAPTER 48: THINKING ABOUT SWITCHING COMPANIES?

Summer Lancaster switched the microphone to the other hand and continued: "And another person, Vivian Summers, performed very well this time. She really highlighted the advantages of her voice. Keep practicing, and there’s a bright future ahead."

Vivian Summers was standing to the side, still reveling in the recent joy, completely unprepared for being mentioned.

She blinked twice, her expression a bit blank. Summer Lancaster saw her reaction and smiled slowly: "Yes, I’m talking about you."

Only then did Vivian Summers snap out of it, bowed, and whispered, "Thank you, teacher."

She took a deep breath, raised her head, turned her face towards Mia Sutton’s side, and then said louder, "Mia Sutton taught me everything. Mia is amazing."

The audience was instantly amused by her honest and simple demeanor.

"She’s so adorable, I love her. Wow, why do I feel like I want to be her mom-fan?"

"At first, she was being praised, but all she thinks about is Mia Sutton. What to do, I think I’ve become hooked again."

Nearby, there was a Mia Sutton and Lynn Joyner CP fan who was happily chatting. Upon hearing this, they instantly turned their head.

With a serious expression, they earnestly said: "Sister, shipping CP is okay, but Sylva’s position is irreplaceable."

The girl who just spoke paused, then a conflicted expression appeared on her face; "That’s true, Sylva is so good to ship too, but this one’s great too, what should I do?"

Another girl heard this and patted her: "Are you silly? Of course, ship them all! Shipping one is never as fun as shipping a whole group; the more CP I ship, the longer my joy will last."

The others exchanged glances, then nodded in agreement, saying, that’s true!

At this moment, at the mentor’s panel, Summer Lancaster looked at the other vocal group and then calmly said: "Your performance today was still pretty good, much better than your usual practice. It’s just unfortunate to compete against Mia Sutton’s group. Don’t lose heart; try harder next time."

After speaking, the other two mentors also offered guidance, but when it was Chester Sheffield’s turn, he only said it was excellent, with a somewhat displeased expression, probably because his previous remarks during song selection were contradicted by Mia Sutton’s talented showing, leaving him visibly upset.

Once the mentors finished their comments, the host, holding the microphone, turned his gaze to Nolan Sinclair and asked with a smile: "Is there anything you’d like to say about this group’s performance, Mr. Sinclair?"

The camera naturally focused on Nolan Sinclair, and simultaneously, the audience and mentors shifted their attention to him, awaiting his comments.

Nolan Sinclair casually adjusted his sitting posture, picked up the microphone, looked at the people on stage, and casually asked, "Do you want to change companies?"

Bang!

Someone accidentally dropped their water bottle.

The question was like a thunderbolt landing in everyone’s ears; no one expected him to ask such a direct question.

This was blatant poaching.

No matter what others thought, Nolan Sinclair sat there calmly, quietly waiting for Mia Sutton’s answer.

On stage, Mia Sutton smiled politely, exhibiting sweetness, but the words she said weren’t exactly sweet. She simply replied, "Yes, I do."

Everyone was shocked; is this for real? So intense!

Truly one who dares to ask and one who dares to answer, blatantly poaching right in the program.

Oh wow, how thrilling!

Then Nolan Sinclair slightly straightened up after hearing Mia Sutton’s response: "Would you like to come to Sunrise?"
