Chapter 171
“Eh…” Megan didn’t know what to say. She thought, “These people don’t look ordinary just by their appearance and aura. Especially the one in the wheelchair, who seems to be the leader. Even without showing his face, you can feel the coldness
around him.
He looks like someone you don’t want to mess with. But in a place like this, they probably wouldn’t dare to cause trouble. Megan paused, then pointed to training room four, “She’s in there.
Leo pushed Julius forward, leading the way. The door to training room four was half–open. There were still two more teams performing, and about half the girls were at the backstage entrance watching, leaving only four or five inside.
The door suddenly knocked. ‘It couldn’t be anyone from their group! Without much thought, Yvette, who was closest to the door, opened it
Seeing the group of people outside, with an extraordinary presence, she was taken aback. “You are…
“Could you move, please? Thanks, Zack said with a smile, but his tone was cold.
Yvette was momentarily stunned. “Eh…”
Wendy heard the commotion and came over. She scanned the group and was surprised: “This is the girls‘ dressing room. You are…?”
“Quiana. Zack, already spotting the person at the vanity, stopped trying to flirt with the girls and called out directly, “Quiana!”
“Quiana?”
“Why are they calling Quiana?”
Everyone looked confused, but Zack had a clear target. The others followed his gaze.
Quiana turned her head and saw the unexpected visitors, frowning, “What are you doing here?”
“Of course, we’re here to see you,” Zack said, stepping forward.
“Quiana–Love.“Vivi’s eyes lit up, and she burst in, still wearing her wing light, excitedly waving her hands. “Mrs. Hawley, you- look so cool and awesome today!”
Julius’s gaze softened. “We came to see your public performance. You danced well Quiana was taken aback.
The other girls were still processing the situation. Wendy finally spoke up, “Quiana, are these people looking for you?”
Julius and the others had all come backstage. Quiana hadn’t expected this. She paused for a moment, then slowly said.
“Friends.”
‘Friends? Do friends call someone Mrs. Hawley? Wendy thought
The few people at the door all had strong auras. Inside, Quiana’s presence was equally commanding. The other girls, feeling intimidated, suddenly fell silent. The dressing room became eerily quiet.
“Um. Quiana began, her voice clear and her bright eyes flashing with a hint of innocence and liveliness, “could you please step out for a moment? The others were speechless.
“Ah, oh,” Wendy recovered first and started ushering the others out
Nora frowned. “This is our dressing room. Why should we leave?”

“Exactly, your friends aren’t ours,” Yvette coldly added, “you should be the one to leave.”
Quiana’s cool gaze swept over them, making everyone feel uneasy. Just as they were about to protest, she nodded thoughtfully. “Oh.” Then, she stood up and walked out with long, graceful strides.
The empty dressing room felt charged with tension. Quiana sat down, crossing her legs with an air of nonchalance. Julius’s deep–set eyes darkened as he spoke, his voice low and serious. “They’re targeting you.”
Quiana raised an eyebrow. “No, they’re not.”
Julius’s dark brows furrowed. Zack whistled, “Quiana, you’re not having a good time here, are you?”
Quiana tilted her head. “I’m doing fine.”
You can’t just lie like that. Julius thought
Quiana’s gaze drifted past the others and landed on Alina, who seemed unusually cold. Alina rubbed her nose and walked over, muttering quietly, “I didn’t bring them here; that guy insisted on coming. And she had tagged along.
“Mrs. Hawley, uncle Julius wanted to see your performance, and I insisted he take me along.” Vivi said, beaming as she pulled out a pen and paper. “Can I get your autograph?”
