The premiere episode of "My Acting Skills" caused quite a sensation, with the live viewing figures going through

the roof.

When Isabella and Christopher thanked the audience with their team, the applause from the audience was

thunderous. David and Selena excitedly waved their hands.

Judging from everyone's reactions to the play, it wasn't hard to infer the netizens' sentiment.

The current broadcast featured the emcee interviewing other guests in the waiting area, asking for their opinions

on the performances of the two groups. Everyone essentially gave a self-

righteous critique of the performers’ acting, then hastily found excuses to leave the waiting area. The audience

would've believed the guests had needed to urgently use the restroom if it weren't for the insuppressible

excitement on their faces. One comment read: D*mn! They must have gone backstage to gossip!

Another comment read: Is there anything I, as a VVVVIP am not allowed to see? I've paid my dues, now hurry up

and take us backstage."

Someone commented: The actors from Team Young Again had already gone backstage earlier, and Team A-list

had just got off stage. | can't even begin to imagine how lively it must be backstage now."

Another netizen commented: Letsee! Letsee! | want to be a part of the fun!

The emcee reluctantly continued interviewing while keeping an eye on the live comments. She wished she could

be backstage as well. D*mn her job for keeping her from enjoying the show.

With all the guests having left, she had no choice but to proceed with the program and turn to the professional

teachers from the performing arts university invited to evaluate the face- off. However, the teachers also

seemed distracted, constantly checking their Twitter accounts on their phones.

The stage play and gossip had taken up all the top ten trending searches on Twitter. Real-

tupdates kept popping up on the timeline, creating wave after wave of sensation. It was a situation where

everyone was kicking Willian and Jennie when they were down. Even capitalists couldn't suppress them. After the

stage play, apart from the mindless fans who would defend their idol regardless, everyone else had already

figured out what was going on.

After all, peeling back the facade of so-called true love, and thinking logically for a moment, the play was

nothing more than a tale of a blatantly unfaithful man and his mistress conspiring against the wife.

Just as everyone was once obsessed with shipping couples, the entire populace was on a mission to expose the

sc*m's and mistress’ infidelity.

Backstage, William seemed lost, plunged into a spiral of self-doubt. Connor, however, was still making a Hast-

ditch effort, ceaselessly issuing orders, trying to salvage William's image.

After all, there was very little concrete evidence. The stage play played a huge role in pushing the

momentum.

All Connor had to do at that moment was to have William insist on not having any more feelings toward Tacsica

Connor still refused to believe that Isabella's and Christopher's performance was real. Instead, he felt that it was

a collaborative act, a designed set-up.

In the entertainment industry, if someone wanted to target an individual, the most common strategy was to leak

information that was a mix of truth and lies. He believed that Jessica had done just that.

"Jessica is truly ruthless! She's trying to completely crush you guys!" Connor lost his temper as he watched the

situation spiral out of control. "You need to contact her quickly," he ordered William.

Jennie looked at her phone, her face pale. The current situation was something she hadn't anticipated. She could

only turn to William for help, pleading, "William..."

However, William seemed oblivious to all the noises outside, his mind was filled with Isabella's harsh words. Have

| truly wronged Jessica to such an extent? My heart just wandered for a bit, and | cared for Jennie a bit, so how

did things end up like this? Just then, Isabella and Christopher arrived backstage. The hushed whispers

immediately fell silent. All eyes turned to look at them in unison.

Rosalie and Thalia eagerly went to greet the two. Hayden approached with a fake smile, but as soon as he saw

David and Selena following behind them, his fake smile quickly faded, leaving him with a forced grin.

Although he could admonish Christopher and Isabella, he still knew his place when facing the previous leader of

the Quirk Group.

When the two elders arrived, it was clear that they were there to spectate the unfold.

At that moment, everyone's gaze darted between the two groups of people.

In the next second, Conner sprang into action, storming to Isabella and Christopher, fuming with anger. The sight

instantly caught everyone's attention, and they quickly found a spot to sit or stand, holding their breath, their

focus sharpened, waiting for the to unfold. Connor's phone buzzed incessantly, indicating the increasingly

challenging situation. In a fit of desperation, he blurted out, "If you issue a statement now saying your

performance has nothing to do with us, we'll pretend nothing ever happened." What is he even saying? Isabella

was amused.

The corner of Christopher's mouth twitched as he turned to look at Hayden.

In that situation, there was no need for Isabella and Christopher to step in. Hayden hurriedly stepped up and

said, "What are you talking about, Connor? This is just a script and an act. Why are you taking it personally?"

"You shouldn't cross the line!" Connor snapped, holding back his anger.

Hayden chuckled. "We were just performing as per the production team's request. It wasn't anything out of the

ordinary."

Connor finally bellowed, "Are you guys out of your minds? Just how much did Jessica pay you to set us up like

this?"

Christopher shot a look of disdain at Connor and said, "Set you up? What setup are you talking about? Aren't you

guys the ones who are setting up others?"

Connor felt as though someone had seized him by the throat.

The onlookers pinched their thighs to stifle their laughter.

"Do you really think you can win like this?" Connor asked menacingly. "You don't have any concrete proof! Don't

forget that Jessica is William's wife. Married couples reconcile quickly after arguments. She hasn't cforward

with any evidence incriminating William, which What a bluff! He has no control over Jessica anymore, especially

since he couldn't even get through to her on the phone. He can deceive us and sow doubt in our minds so that

family members listened to Isabella's thoughts intently. What has already begun?

However, the rest felt confused and lost.

That's right. If Christopher and Isabella are helping Jessica, shouldn't Jessica provide them with something more

beneficial? Is it really a domestic affair? That's repulsive.

Even William's eyes suddenly sparkled, as if he had gained snewfound confidence, his cheeks flushing

with color.

She loves and resents me, but in the end, she can't bear to letgo, leavinga way out and hoping to

salvage my love. | nearly thought Jessica's

ruthless actions were meant to sever... But | know she's just throwing a tantrum. Her actions were a bit too

tactless, though. I'll need to have a serious talk with her about this once | meet her.

It

was unclear whether William was genuinely dumb or simply refusing to face reality, but he managed to trick

himself and found the strength to stand up and approach Christopher and Isabella. With a serious expression, he

said, "Jessica and | will reconcile. She'll help to cle Isabella wanted to laugh at William's display of confidence.

After all the harm you've done to her, you have the audacity to ask for her help. Let's see if you can maintain this

confidence later.
