Ms. Yancey stood stunned for a moment before turning back to look at Melanie.

Melanie stepped forward upon realizing that she had been implicated in the issue.

“Ms. Yancey,” she said, “I’m afraid this is all a misunderstanding. I don’t really understand it myself, but I heard Ms. Murray mention earlier about someone who thinks too highly of herself in

wanting to be Adam’s partner, which was what angered Adam. Was she referring to me?”

“This was a misunderstanding to begin with.”

Ms, Yancey couldn’t be bothered to spare a glance at Kelly. She looked at Melanie, before her

gaze landed on Adam.

“I can promise you that no one is able to stuff a partner down your throat without getting your express permission. As such, you can catwalk at tomorrow’s show with peace of mind.”

“That’s great! We similarly look forward to our first collaboration with you, Ms. Yancey,” Adam’s manager chimed in at just the right time.

“What I’m most concerned about right now is whether Melanie Jones is willing to be my partner?” Adam turned everyone’s attention to her.

Everyone looked at Melanie, who in turn glanced at a panic–stricken Kelly, who was seizing the chance to retreat into the crowd…

Melanie would never let her have her way!

“I was seriously considering your invitation, but what Ms. Murray said earlier about me thinking too highly of myself affected me very much. I really need to think this through. I’m not a professional in this area, and I might just ruin yours and Ms. Yancey’s show,” Melanie said calmly. Her words clearly targeted Kelly.

Adam, Mr. Wright and Linda all turned to glare at Kelly.

“Mr. Wright,” Linda said, and Mr. Wright immediately hunched over in a servile manner. “I don’t even need to ask you to know what happened. Take a break after this show is over.”

Linda’s tone was gentle, but it still sent shivers down Mr. Wright’s spine. “Ms. Yancey… I was wrong. Please give me one more chance…”
