Elaine frowned, turning pale.

Dane reassured her, “She’ll manage.

“I know, but I can’t help thinking…” Elaine bit her lip, leaving her sentence unfinished.

However, Dane grasped what Elaine was implying.

It was one thing for someone else to make such a statement, but Kristine?

He had cautioned her before.

Jenna then urged, “Madisyn, would you dare to dance right now?”

“Yes, I can.

But can anyone question the judges’ authority or this competition’s fairness? Your baseless doubts are disrupting the entire event,” Madisyn retorted sharply.

“It all depends on whether you truly qualify as a judge! If you prove worthy, I’ll never compete here again,” Jenna said firmly.

“But if you’re not worthy, you owe everyone here an apology, admit your bias, and change my score!”

Madisyn thought Jenna was a fool, desperately wanting to cause herself trouble.

It seemed like the perfect moment for a dance.

“Okay.

” Madisyn agreed and stood up, ready to dance.

Kristine was practically buzzing with anticipation.

In her mind, there was no way Madisyn could be up to the task of judging.

Even Lynda, with all her credentials, hadn’t made the cut.

The judges were supposed to be the elite of the elite.

Madisyn was too young.

How could she possibly have the expertise?

The thought of Madisyn facing potential embarrassment in front of everyone brought a gleeful expectation to Kristine.

She watched intently as Madisyn approached the stage, her gaze unwavering.

Jenna shared the same sentiment as Kristine, both of them bracing to witness what they expected to be a cringe-worthy performance.

The audience’s curiosity was piqued as they awaited Madisyn’s performance.

Did Madisyn truly earn her spot on the panel, or were there underhanded tactics at play?

Lynda watched Madisyn from afar with a critical eye.

Suddenly, she marched onto the stage, confronting Madisyn with firm resolve.

“Enough of this.

Step down as judge.

Apologize to Jenna later, and we can move past this.

Madisyn, however, ignored Lynda completely.

It was an overt snub, marking the first time Lynda had been so publicly disregarded.

But although she was embarrassed, her primary concern was the Johns family’s dignity.

Being part of the Johns family meant Madisyn’s actions cast a long shadow over their collective reputation-a legacy built over generations that Lynda was not about to see tarnished.

“That’s enough, Madisyn.

Don’t let your pride dominate you.

This is a national dance competition, not a personal showcase!” Lynda whispered fiercely, hoping to sway Madisyn to reconsider her stance.
