Chapter 357 Confrontation

Maggie’s vote count had been climbing steadily, albeit slower than her competitors.

Some potential voters were still on the fence, troubled by the similarity between her song and Sierra’s earlier piece. They craved clarification.

Meanwhile, in the dressing room, Sierra’s face darkened as she scrutinized the live stream on her phone.

Meanwhile, online chatter buzzed with talk about Maggie’s necklace, adding fuel to the already heated discussion.
