Hope It's Not Too Late to Love

Chapter 280

Hanson pursed his lips coldly. If he were his usual self, he would have rejected Melanie's request straightforwardly.

Today, however, he picked up the microphone in a good mood, as if wanting to comment. His gaze was meaningful as he glanced at Melanie.

She did not expect that he would still look at her with that gaze, so she thought he might consider her identity as Morales and Morgan's mother and tone down his remarks.

In an unexpected way, Hanson uttered mercilessly, "I think she should be eliminated right away."

What? Eliminated?!

There was another uproar at the scene. After Bella, Hanson once again spat a harsh comment at Melanie now, putting the whole scene into another awkward situation.

Hearing that, the host felt his heart threatening to leap out of his chest. What on earth is going on in this show? Can President Luke refrain from giving such shocking remarks from time to time?!

All of them could not take it anymore.

No one at the scene dared to say a word, for fear of offending Hanson.

Netizens, on the contrary, continued watching the show like it was no big deal.

'Way to go, President Luke!'

'His words are so on point! I like this show so much. It's exciting to watch!'

'I hope President Luke keeps up with his pace!'

As the director watched the scene, he felt miserable. He hoped that Hanson would stop his extreme remarks soon. If he continued with the provocation, the director feared he might have a heart attack.

If it weren't for the fact that Hanson was the sponsor, the director would've changed the lineup of the judges.

As silence enveloped the stage, Melanie could only stand on her spot awkwardly. Under the scrutinization of the audience, their gazes filled with ridicule, she had nowhere to hide.

To be frank, she was even more worried that Hanson was going to eliminate her.

Now that Hanson had spoken, who else would dare to keep her until the end?

Her initial plan was to gain popularity through this show, but now, all her previous efforts would most probably be in vain.

She had not even started yet, and it was going to end. Therefore, she visibly panicked.

Truth be told, Hanson didn't pay attention to Melanie singing at all. All he thought about was how to make her pay him what she owed.

And that comment was just to curry favor with Vania.

Even now, he was not aware of the bloodbath he had brought about.

Anyhow, he didn't care what happened to Melanie at all.

The host at the scene was already crying silently in misery. What on earth is going on with this show? With a bitter smile, he continued, "Thank you, President Luke, for your straightforward comment. Let us now hear from the other guest judges."

Now that Hanson had already given his comment, none of the other judges could oppose him, so they could only tell her to work harder.

When it was Vania's turn, she stared at Melanie with an unfathomable smile.

However, Melanie interpreted Vania's expression as a look of mockery. Gritting her teeth, she silently expected something sarcastic from Vania.

"Objectively speaking, your overall performance was not bad, and I can tell that you've taken this competition seriously and made preparations for it. Your attitude is commendable, but your weakness is technical skills in terms of how you express the song. You're not on par with a professional yet, but I look forward to your upcoming performance."

Everyone thought that Vania and Melanie held a grudge against each other, so Vania would definitely criticize the latter. But no one expected Vania to give such a pertinent evaluation. Once again, she won the public's favor.

On the other hand, Melanie could only see how hypocritical she was. She didn't want Vania's pretentious good intentions at all.

Despite that, she could not show her temper now, so she held it back.

Nonetheless, that did not mean she was giving up. She would do everything possible to expose Vania's various flaws and unforgivable behaviors to the public and would also show Hanson Vania's true face in order to return to Hanson's side.
