Milly furrowed her brow, her mind swirling with questions prompted by Ken’s words. Had she stolen his sister’s role? What could that mean?

Mr. Hawkins had yet to make contact with her. She hadn’t received any notification of her selection, so how had this information become public knowledge?

“Oh my goodness, boss, you’re trending!” Melanie’s sudden exclamation jolted Milly out of her thoughts.

“No, boss, it’s definitely you.” Melanie insisted, eagerly thrusting her phone towards Milly. “Isn’t Giselle the character you auditioned for? It has to be you.”

Milly accepted the phone, and indeed, her name was prominently displayed at number two on the trending list: #Milly, the actress portraying Giselle#.

A viral symbol was already next to it, indicating its rapid spread across social media.

Upon clicking on this trending topic, I saw that the top post was from Michelle.

The post was accompanied by a crew score sheet, illustrating everyone’s scores unmistakably, with Milly achieving the highest.

Scrolling further down, most comments were from fans, predominantly hurling insults at Milly while offering words of solace to Michelle.

“Michelle, don’t despair. You are flawless in our eyes. We will always stand by you. Milly, disappear!”

“Mr. Hawkins’s decision is quite intriguing. Michelle is the most suitable candidate for the role of Giselle in the entire entertainment industry. Highly educated, proficient in ballet, and stunningly beautiful. How did they overlook her?”
