From Divorce To Dominance

[Get off the stage. You stole someone's song and still have the nerve to perform? Shame on you.] Natalie, quit the show, Natalie, quit the show.]

[How shameless can a person be to keep using a stolen song in a competition? I'm so angry.]

[Is the production team dead or something? Why aren't they doing anything? This show is going to fail.]

[Natalie cozies up to sponsors, pretends to be rich, creates a fake persona, and even steals other people's work. Natalie, is there anything you can't do?] Almost as soon as Vivian finished her introduction, the comment section exploded with sarcastic remarks. Is were

Tessa definitely had the upper hand. Public opinion was overwhelmingly in her favor. Eight out of ten comments bashing Natalie.

Natalie's die-hard fans initially tried to argue back, but they were quickly overwhelmed by the angry netizens. The comment section was a chaotic mess.

Suddenly, on the livestream screen, all the spotlights went out. Everyone realized that the performance was starting and was ready to double down on the insults, but they were stunned when the opening music began.

The netizens thought, How can this be? If I remember right, this team's song is supposed to be Dangerous Heartbeat Natalie and her team are accused of stealing the composition of Tessa's team. But why does the intro sound so different?

The most crucial part was that this version of the arrangement sounded high-end. The melodious flute opening gave the whole song a subtle yet intimate vibe. But soon, the guitar melted in, and the simple, straightforward melody seamlessly connected with the original intro.

Just then, with the first beat of the drum, Emily sang the opening line with her powerful and penetrating voice. The audience went wild instantly. All the spotlights lit up at once.

Nine beams of light shone down, each lighting up one of the nine women. Each of them had a simple yet s**y style, matching perfectly with the song. As the upbeat melody continued, they sang and danced, filling the entire stage with

energy.

This choreography was already impressive when Natalie danced it solo. Now, with all nine dancing together, the impact it had on the audience far surpassed anything before. Everyone was so stunned that they forgot to send comments, staring at the screen without blinking, afraid to miss even a second.

After Emily finished singing, there was a long segment of rap.

Tessa's team didn't make any changes, but Natalie's team added guitar and piano harmonies at this point.

Although the melody remained simple with no flashy techniques, Susan's husky voice added a hint of allure to the song.

Dangerous Heartbeat was originally about the strategic probing between a pl**y and a femme fatale, and right at that moment, the dance became even sexier.

Several elegantly-shaped women performed a series of seductive moves, but their expressions remained cold and sophisticated. Rather than seeming vulgar, they were alluring. Sat, Sep 21

[Cute is nothing compared to s**y. I have to say, the dance team led by Natalie totally crushed Tessa's team.]

[Can the comment above be more objective, please? Not only does the dance defeat them, but just the arrangement alone also outshines them.]

Is this the composition that Tessa accused Natalie of copying? Are you kidding me? They are totally different songs.]

[This arrangement uses various instruments and mixing styles. Why does it feel like the style of that artist who disappeared three years ago, the Evening Wanderer?)

While the online discussions were heating up, Susan's rap part ended, and it was about to transition to the high-pitch chorus. Anyone who had been following the live stream knew that the first line of the chorus for the sixth team was Natalie's solo. Natalie hadn't started singing yet, but her fans were already worried sick.

[My gosh. Do you think Natalie will sing off-key because she's nervous today?]

The moment Natalie starts singing, everyone who can and cannot sing becomes silent.]

As we all

What should I do? I'm do? Im

all know, even though Naty a bit scared.]

Natalie alie often goes off-key, she loves singing. Shh. She's about to sing.]

On stage, the high-resolution camera focused on Natalie. Just then, she gave a brief enchanting wink and began singing confidently.

She had naturally good vocal quality, and after practicing this line over a hundred times, she sang it with ease. She neither went off-pitch nor forgot the lyrics.

Everyone was absolutely stunned for a long time. She really went above and beyond.

With another round of sizzling dance moves, the performance finally came to a perfect end.

Susan led everyone forward to take a bow, and for a moment, the entire auditorium was completely silent. Then, the audience came back to their senses. The performance brought the house down. That was amazing. Absolutely incredible. None of them expected that they would see such high-level composition and choreography on an entertainment-driven stage.

the members of the sixth team didn't have a strong foundation, but in this The most remarkable thing was performance, none of them made mistakes and they all challenged themselves. Although their progress wasn't rapid, they all did a commendable job. In a surprising twist, the final overall score of the sixth team ended up exactly the same as Tessa's team, tying for second place.

This caught the attention of the netizens, reminding them that the plagiarism issue wasn't settled yet. But this time, instead of accusing Natalie, they were calling out Tessa.

Ms.

Simpson, can you explain? Didn't you say the sixth team stole your composition? Did they really need to steal it?]

Tessa's composition is indeed good, but the sixth team's is even better. They wouldn't need to steal it, right?I

[Who's lying here? Anyone-with eyes can see. Ms. Simpson is such an angelic b**h.] Tessa is leading the smear campaign, isn't she? Could she just have some decency?]

Backstage, Tessa had also watched the sixth team's performance. Right now, she was furious, clenching her teeth. She wondered, "How can this be? There is no way they can come up with a new song in such a short amount of time. It is clearly impossible. So why does the most impossible thing just happen? She gripped her phone tightly, with new Twitter notifications popping up nonstop. A casual glance revealed a torrent of insults.

Tessa finally felt a delayed sense of fear. It was over. She couldn't explain the plagiarism thing. The netizens all believed she was slandering Natalie, and Natalie's piece was entirely different from hers. She thought, 'What should I do now?" Tessa tensed up, feeling like she had fallen into an ice cave. She couldn't help but remember Natalie mentioning some so-called evidence. She thought, 'Could it be Natalie knew what I had done?'

Tessa's eyes widened in horror just as Natalie's face appeared on the big screen.

Natalie was naturally charming, and the high-resolution camera only magnified her stunning beauty.

Natalie raised an eyebrow and smiled slightly, I've never encountered such an infuriating situation. It turns out that having my work stolen feels so heartbreaking, but I have no power or influence, so no one would believe me."

She paused deliberately at this point, her beautiful eyes scanning the entire crowd before she let out a sneer and spoke slowly, "But luckily, I have evidence. Otherwise, it would be impossible to clear my name." Natalie sneered, raised her hand, and snapped her fingers toward the front right. Suddenly, a surveillance video appeared on the big screen.
