“It’s gorgeous!”


    “What a beautiful dress!”


    “So, this one is Jenna’s intendedpetition dress?” someone whispered.


    The question resonated throughout the crowd,den with implications.


    Sensing the change in atmosphere and the judgmental nces, Jenna hastily exined, “No, this was just a backup, in case something went wrong during thepetition!”


    Madisyn couldn’t help but let out a mockingugh.


    “Clearly, anyone can see which dress is better.


    If I were truly out to sabotage your dress, wouldn’t I target the better one? Jenna, your tacticsck finesse.


    You might want to hone your skills before attempting such theatrics again!”


    The secretary then chimed in, reinforcing Madisyn’s position, “As a judge, it’s perfectly normal for Madisyn to inspect the contestants.


    I advise some here to abandon their preparations.


    Moreover, petty maneuvers.


    Even with ten more years of practice, you couldn’t match Madisyn’s caliber.


    She has no need to stoop to such levels.


    Sabotage your dress? Preposterous!”


    This was Trevor’s secretary, a person renowned for her astuteness and insight.


    Her firm support of Madisyn shifted the crowd’s perspective dramatically.


    Could Madisyn actually be as exceptional as she said?


    If that was the case, there was no conceivable reason for her to target Jenna, especially not the less significant dress.


    Those in the crowd who had initially sided with Jenna now bore expressions of disappointment.


    They realized they might have been manipted into supporting a cause based on deceit.


    “So it appears that Madisyn is truly a remarkable dancer.


    The National Dance Association is known for its fairness, especially in selecting judges.

    “Yeah, if that’s the case, she had no reason to sabotage Jenna’s dress.


    ”


    “I think Jenna’s been ying us.novelbin


    She used the damaged dress to frame Madisyn, but her real n was to use the deep blue gown for thepetition!”


    Jenna’splexion flushed a deep red, as if the crowd’s realization was a physical blow.


    She trembled, attempting to muster a defense.


    “No, it’s not like that…”


    But the secretary’s endorsement of Madisyn had solidified the crowd’s opinion, and their expressions hardened into ones of disappointment and disdain.


    Jenna felt a cold istion envelop her as if she had plunged into an icy abyss.


    How did ite to this?


    Madisyn was supposed to be the one getting mocked!


    How on earth did she end up as a judge?


    “Jenna, if you’re so certain that I ruined your dress, hand it over to the staff right now and let them check for fingerprints.


    ” Madisyn looked down at Jenna, a hint of amusement in her expression.


    Jenna’s face tensed, her mind racing.
