Her Seven Little Bodyguards

Chapter 367

Melanie's smile did not reach her eyes. "President Luke is a very distinguished man, and such a man would have countless women desperately trying to get close to him. None of them have ever succeeded, though. My words might have been a bit harsh earlier, but I'm only saying it for your own good."

There was no doubt in her mind that Hanson would not be interested in Kiki. In fact, she could tell from the way he barely paid any attention to her.

Hanson's eyes seemed to sparkle whenever he looked at Vania, but he looked at Kiki the way he looked at Melanie. It was like he saw right through them and was not at all keen to stay in their presence any longer than necessary.

Therefore, Melanie came up with a new idea. Rather than wasting her breath and trying to duke it out with Kiki who had no hope of getting close to Hanson in any way, why not find a way to get Kiki on her side as an ally against Vania?

"Do you understand what I'm trying to say?" Melanie asked sweetly when she saw that Kiki was still staring at her in confusion.

Kiki looked at her apologetically. "I think you've gotten the wrong idea. President Luke is indeed an incredible man, but I don't have such thoughts about him."

Melanie figured that Kiki was just too stubborn to admit it since she had spotted the admiration in Kiki's eyes when she looked at Hanson earlier.

She chuckled and said, "You don't have to be shy about it. It's not embarrassing to carry a torch for President Luke. Any woman who sees him would naturally develop an attraction toward him. In fact, it'd be weird if she didn't."

Melanie leaned in and advised, "It's fine if you like President Luke, but you should be careful around Vania."

Kiki's expression froze once more as she glanced at Melanie.

The latter continued, "If Vania does anything to you in the future, remember to come and look for me."

She made sound like it was an absolute certainty that it would happen. After patting Kiki on the shoulder, she walked away with a smile, looking like a cat that caught the canary.

Meanwhile, Kiki did not say a word. She looked over at Vania and Hanson, who were engaged in cheerful conversation, and turned to leave with a neutral expression on her face.

Soon, the stage was set for recording to begin.

The host stood on stage as the lights all came on at once, and the venue fell silent.

It was time to start the live broadcast.

Once again, the host introduced the contestants, judges, and guests present at the venue before announcing the theme of today's competition.

The host announced excitedly, "Tonight is the night of 'The Voice''s grand finale, and the contestant who is crowned the champion will have the honor of singing the latest creation of the songwriting genius, Lunastella!"

"Whoa! Good luck, everyone!" The audience beneath the stage began to holler and scream their support.

The audience watching the live stream eagerly looked up Lunastella's credentials.

She had shot into fame five years ago.

At first, Lunastella started with a few songs that were published online and sung by small-time singers. While her songs did go viral, she continued to be relatively unknown in the music industry.
