According to the original plan, Michael’s speech would be 30 minutes long while the contestants prepared for their first round of the competition backstage. They did their make-up and hair as they all wanted a chance to win the highest point in the first round and to show themselves off in front of their idol.

Even with Natasha as the strongest opponent and no one bore any hopes for the winning title, there was still a spot for runner-up and third place!

As Sophia’s entry number was number 12, it meant that she still had some time to spare. So, after she did her makeup, she took out the outfit that she prepared for the competition and went to the changing room to wear it.

With a mysteriously smug smile on his face, Richard watched her walk into the changing room with her clothes.

As expected, she exited the room in less than a minute with a scowl.

“Why are you not dressed?” Stanley asked when he realized that she hadn’t changed her clothes.

She scowled again and kept silent. For the competition, she had prepared two sets of outfit—one was for the runway and speech while the other one was for the performance later.

When she shook the other outfit that she took from the case, she realized that both of the outfits had been messed with and there was no way to wear it, especially with holes all over the chest and rear end.

It was still fine when Sophia brought it in earlier, so someone must have messed with it while everyone looked at the idols.

Stanley was enraged when he looked at the now useless outfit. “Who did this? Show yourself now or I’ll shoot you in a minute!”

 

As his roar boomed across the backstage, everyone shot weird glances at them and noticed the two torn outfits; surprised glances were shared but it wasn’t long before those people quickly resumed with their own errands.

With clothes that were badly torn up, there was no way that she could go onstage in it, let alone burrow from anyone.

 

It looks like I can only wear my casual clothes for the runway! It’ll be a miracle for me to obtain a high score! Sophia knew the people behind it and glared accusingly at Xyla and Faye as they walked happily towards her.

“Oh dear, Sophia! What happened to your clothes? Why are they ruined? Would you like us to lend you a few outfits?” Faye questioned sarcastically.

As Sophia stopped Stanley from making a scene, she gazed coldly at them and replied in a cool tone, “It’s nothing; it’s just a small problem.”
