If you kick her out of the program , everyone's just going to talk . You don't want that drama . " Gillian froze and thought , " That clueless country bumpkin , who can't play anything , never comes to ask for help . Guess she is waiting for this moment . Fine , I'll let her perform .

She thought Abigail was setting herself up for massive embarrassment . " Abigail's actually going to ruin my idol's Light ? I swear I'll kill her ! " Gillian fumed .

" I'm out of here now . Seriously , don't try to stop me , " Ethan replied , Vivian thought to herself , ' Are you serious ? ' Vera scanned the room with a smug grin . " Let's give a warm welcome to our fellow student , Abigail ! " Her words only fueled the fire . A few hotheads immediately jumped to their feet . 11:24 Wed , Sep 17 Chapter 34 " Welcome ? My ass ! " someone shouted . : " Abigail , if you ruin Light , I swear I'll end you ! " another yelled . 1755 vouchers As insults flew , Charlotte relaxed , but Gillian remained tense . She could handle a lot , but not when it came to music . It was her one sacred line . Watching someone tear apart her musical beliefs was more than she could tolerate . " I need to step out ," Gillian muttered , barely containing her anger . Charlotte said softly , " Go ahead . Get some fresh air . " Without saying another word , Gillian stormed out with a cold face . ***** Backstage , Lia was freaking out as she waited with Abigail . Panicked , she grabbed a Student Council member . " Wait , are you sure this isn't a mistake ? Abigail's supposed to perform Birds ' Serenade , not Light ! " The member gave her a look of pure annoyance and shook her off . " The sign - up sheet says Light . We don't mess up ." He scoffed , rolling his eyes . " Sure , Light is the shortcut to attention . If you want to steal the spotlight , at least put in the effort . Changing it now ? Too late for that . " " Abigail ... " Lia's voice trembled as she fought back tears . Abigail patted her on the shoulder . " Don't worry , Lia . I can handle Light . Well , a little at least ." ' She can play it ... a little ? ' Lia thought , feeling hopeless . Vera stepped off the stage , sneering , " Abigail , you gonna get up there or not ? " Abigail gave her a flat look . " Interesting . " Vera blinked , taken aback , but then she said with a smile , " Interesting ? Yeah , watching you crash and burn is gonna be hilarious ."
