Chapter 172
The divide between wealthy business families and noble aristocrats is stark. They often look down on the entertainment industry as trivial, let alone getting involved. Yet, the Hawley family, a super elite clan, is different.
The eldest son of the main branch runs an entertainment company. The second branch has a son who is a professional esports player. The daughter, who should be a high–society debutante, envied by other socialites in Janivielle, is here chasing
stars.
Especially Julius, whose name alone strikes fear into others. Now, he’s actually deigning to watch a girl group’s public performance. This ultra–rich family is surprisingly down–to–earth.
Quiana chuckled and took the pen and paper, saying casually, “Sure, I’ll sign it, but don’t call me Mrs. Hawley,”
Vivi blinked, “Why not?”
“Because,” Quiana’s thin lips curved into a cold smile as she signed her name in bold, flowing strokes and handed it back. “T won’t be Julius‘ wife.”
“Ah?” Vivi was taken aback and instinctively turned to look at Julius
Julius’s eyes were dark, and a thick aura of illness surrounded him. He had removed his mask, revealing a handsome face, with thin lips curved into a gentle smile. Last time Quiana mentioned getting married. How about we set a date?”
Pushing too hard. Shameless!‘ Zack thought, finding it hard to watch. Vivi and Nolan wondered, is this really the same Uncle Julius they fear?
Quiana raised an eyebrow, her expression unchanged. “Then you’ll have to wait in line,”
julius, the legitimate fiancé, narrowed his eyes with a casual indifference. “How about if you set a price, and I cut in line?”
Quiana clicked her tongue with a sigh. “But they’re rich, too.”
Zack thought. This is how the big shots play, isn’t it? Upon closer inspection, the facial muscles of Zack and others were twitching with a sense of frivolity.
After the final group’s performance, Steven stepped onto the stage and spoke with fervor and passion. Then he asked everyone to start voting. To ensure fairness, the voting channel was only opened after all the performances were completed.
The five hundred audience members below were whispering to each other, discussing the acts. They had half an hour to cast their votes.
“Uncle Julius, Uncle Julius, it’s time to vote, Vivi bounced around, “Where are your voting devices? I’ll help you vote.”
In addition to Julius and Zack’s devices, she also grabbed Shane’s. She then pulled Leo, “Hurry up and vote, vote for Quiana”
Leo’s mouth twitched. He thought, The respected Mr. Hawley of Janivielle, the heir to the National Medical Bureau, the heir to the Dawson family, and the Hawley family’s precious daughter and son and 1, were being dragged into a voting session!
“If this got out, no one would believe it, especially his buddies. If they found out, they’d laugh themselves silly!
“If you don’t vote, give it to me, I’ll do it for you.” Vivi, being impatient, snatched the voting device from his hand. Including Zack and Alina, seven people, seventy votes, all went to Quiana.
Outside, the voting concluded, and the mentors gathered to discuss the results. “I bet the first place will definitely be Lucy” Jocelyn said confidently.

“Not necessarily,” Eric replied. “Megan and Joyce are also strong contenders.”
“Those three performed consistently well, but it’s hard to say who will take the top spot, Alex chimed in.
“What’s there to hesitate about?” Ryan ran a hand through his golden hair, firmly stating, “I bet Quiana will be first
Jocelyn and the others looked at him, about to say something, but then heard Eric point to the screen. “Look“”
The voting display showed a hundred names scrolling rapidly. The top five were fluctuating wildly, and Quiana’s rume climbed from one–hundredth place to the top five, then locked in a fierce battle with Lucy and Megan.
In the final second. Quiana’s name surged ahead, claiming the first spot.
