Jasper was boiling with anger, with no outlet to release it. He vented his frustration by kicking the seat in front of him, but lost his balance and stumbled forward, barely avoiding a face-plant. The embarrassment only added to his anger.

This fury lasted until the end of the recording. Jasper stormed backstage and confronted Elva, who was making her way to the dressing room. He unleashed a barrage of insults.

“What's wrong with you? How many times did you practice? Why did you still mess up? Do you realize how many people were watching? If you can't win first place without making mistakes like that, you might as well pack up and go home!"

His loud voice attracted the attention of the stars who hadn't left yet.

Elva, being a well-known singer in the industry, had never faced such public shaming before.

Despite her strong exterior, the cruel scolding from Jasper proved too much for her to handle and she broke down in tears.

Jasper's harsh words continued, "Why are you shedding tears now?

You didn't shed a single one when you made that mistake on stage."

As Jasper continued to berate Elva, his phone suddenly rang.

Snatching it up, he was met with the voice of his assistant, eagerly reporting, “Boss, as we've planned, the news of Elva's victory over Sarah and securing first place has hit the top ten of the hottest searches! It's all over the Internet!"

This announcement only added fuel to the fire of Jasper's anger, as he took it as a personal affront to his reputation.

“Are you kidding me?! Retract it now! Don't you have eyes? Can't you see the huge mistake Elva made? How could you announce such news in this situation?" he bellowed.

Caught off guard, his assistant stammered, "Yes, yes, I'l retract it right away."

Just as Jasper was about to unleash more of his wrath upon Elva, he caught a glimpse of a stunning and aloof woman bedecked with sparkling jewelry, striding into the hall, surrounded by eight burly bodyguards.

Jasper's gaze was immediately drawn to the stunning figure that had just entered the room. Her tailored, high-end ensemble showcased her hourglass curves, and her plump, perfectly shaped lips were the cherry on top. She was a delicate beauty, reminiscent of a blooming peony.

Jasper had an eye for beauty, and he instantly recognized Jennifer Austin, the recent high-profile bride-to-be of Adrian, daughter of the renowned Austin family.

Just as he was about to approach her, Jennifer cast a disdainful gaze around the room, her voice dripping with ice as she demanded, “Where is Ariana Edwards?"

Jasper was thrilled to see Jennifer was here to confront Ariana.

The situation was shaping up to be intense as Jennifer brought eight bodyguards, ready to confront Ariana.

Seizing the opportunity to stir up trouble, Jasper stepped forward and introduced himself with a friendly smile.
