Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right
Chapter 360

“Now, stop giving her a hard time for being late.

You weren’t the one in that crash.

And Selah was clearly the better performer just now!”

“I’ve made up my mind.

My vote goes to Selah.

”

In a flash, the tide of public opinion turned, and Selah’s votes soared, zooming past Kristy’s.

Jayleen watched, cheeks burning with rage, puzzled as to why Mercer’s fan was so bent on backing Selah.

Mercer, the chart-topping singer with a fanbase to match, mow seemed to have all his followers rallying for Selah.

But Jayleen wasn’t one to back down.

Kristy had to clinch the win in this contest!

She quickly texted the leader of the paid voters, “Bring in the reinforcements! We need to beat Selah’s votes!”

The leader replied, “Sure, but we’re talking big numbers.

As for the price, it wouldn’t be cheap.

”

Jayleen shot back, “Name your price.

I won’t settle for anything less than Selah’s defeat today!”

“Alright, deal,” the leader responded.

As the voting clock ticked down to the last five minutes, Kristy’s numbers, once dominated by

Selah’s, surged forward.

By the closest of margins, Selah held on, winning by a single vote.

In the judges’ corner, Louis and Robert cast their votes for Selah, but the other three judges picked apart her performance.

“I feel Selah might’ve pushed too hard in this role.

”

“Selah’s expression really distracts me from getting immersed in the performance.

”

“Her last laugh sent a shiver down my spine.

It gave me the creeps.

”

Netizens were fed up and kept voicing their complaints.

“This character is meant to be wild.

Did you really expect her to act sweet?”

“It was clear they were just nitpicking at her.

”

“Are those judges even competent? Did they get bribed or something?”

In the end, the judges were split 3 to 2.

Kristy won by one vote.

It was quite a close call.

Following a spirited debate, Vincent finally declared that in this audition round, Selah and Kristy were tied.

The internet went into an uproar.

“Selah was clearly better.

Are the judges and Vincent blind?”

“There’s got to be some behind-the-scenes manipulation.

They say it’s a fair contest, but it’s anything but fair!”
