His Heiress Wife (Retika)

Chapter 157: Immoral People 

Zeke was a lot more relaxed than the others.He knew that what Luke said was true.

There were some places in the student union where they hid all their filthy deeds, but this was one of the unspoken rules.

No one from the student union had ever talked about it because these things were supposed to be hidden outside the student union.

Zeke looked at Luke and the others with a deep gaze before he snapped, "Luke, I told you not to escalate this conflict because of your own personal grudge toward others.We are now talking about whether your group can advance to the next level or not.Can you not shift the focus of this event to something controversial?"

Melody raised her head and stared coldly at Zeke.

Zeke might look like a gentleman, but what he was doing was so trashy that he didn't even deserve to live as a human being.

Luke stopped when he saw Melody's gaze on Zeke.He instantly knew that Melody was up to something, so he waited for her to speak.

Melody shifted her gaze and stared at the judges in front of her.She looked like she was scanning each of them, calculating if they also had something to say.

"I just want to ask each one of you one thing; if you doubt our qualifications to advance due to our bad conduct, then do we have the right to question your qualifications to judge us, considering how immoral you are?" Melody snorted.

"Since it looks like the standards of judging here does not depend on one's talents and abilities, but on their moral character.Let's compare on who is the more immoral among us, then!" Melody added.

Melody's voice was not loud, yet it was clear to the audience.It penetrated everyone's ears and reached their hearts.

Melody's words were simple and clear.

No one was a fool for them not to understand what she meant.

As the saying went, one must have sufficient strength for them to do whatever they wanted.

Christine didn't know what to say.She knew that Melody could easily refute her claim.

She couldn't raise doubts regarding Melody and her group's ability to sing because Melody's group was perfectly in line with the competition's criteria and guidelines.

Since Christine knew that Melody's strength in performing was unquestionable, she used the audience's bad impression on them and refused to let Melody's group advance.

"If that's the case, then what about the judges?" one of the audience members remarked.

"If the judges themselves aren't competent enough, what qualifications do they have to say such words?" a different audience member added.

The sounds of discussion around steadily grew.

Zeke's face and the faces of the student heads of the student union sitting next to him became increasingly unpleasant.

It was clear that they didn't like what they heard from Melody.

Some individuals even began to blame Christine for everything, claiming that she caused trouble and she was to blame for everyone's problem.

Christine was furious that her whole body was trembling.

She didn't expect Luke to know so many things about the student council.

Luke was brazen and he was not afraid of offending the entire student union as he publicly displayed the student union's dirty laundry.

Now, her only hope was that Zeke could turn the tide.

Zeke felt that he was very unlucky to be sitting in the judges’ seat.He didn't expect that Melody and her group would be so tough.

In order to protect the authority of the student council, all he could do was force himself to hold on.

"Please stop slandering the student union.If you have evidence, you can apply a petition to the school.This is a competition, so please do not waste everyone's time.There are still many students waiting to perform! You have slandered our student union with a baseless accusation just to buy time for us to compromise.This kind of behavior is too despicable and irresponsible to the other students!"

After Zeke finished speaking, Christine wanted to applause him for what he said.She felt that this was the right word to shut Melody and her group out.

Christine quickly echoed, "Yes, you deliberately used this method to buy time.Isn't it to force us to compromise? Do you really think that we are afraid of you? Your method is too despicable."

"Despicable?" Melody snorted.

A hint of coldness flashed across her beautiful face, "If we let a group of immoral people take high positions, wouldn't that be a true waste of everyone's time?"

Her words are loud and clear, like the crunchy sound of pearls falling to the ground.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Each word that she said had its distinct sound that rendered silent.

"How about this? We go to the school now and explain this matter clearly.We will provide evidence and let the school judge fairly.If the school still recognizes your qualification to judge, then we will respect it and apologize to you sincerely.We can then let you decide if we deserve to advance!" Melody said with a cold smile on her face.

‘That is ruthless!’ one of the audience thought.

‘This group is ruthless!’ another one thought.

‘If others are dissatisfied with the results of the review, they will be against the judges."

‘This group is amazing, directly pulling the entire judges down with them"

These were all the thoughts of the audience after they heard Melody's words.

Melody's "compromising," yet domineering attitude made everyone feel that she had a card up her sleeve and was holding the evidence of her absolute superiority.

Before Zeke could react, the student heads who were sitting beside him could no longer sit still.

They were involved in the two things that Luke had just said.

They could not let Luke and Melody say whatever they wanted to say.

Right now, no one knew what else they knew about the student council.

If they ended up bringing this matter to the school, that only meant the end of their position as a student head.

Being ousted as a judge would be considered as a light punishment, and the worst was still unknown since they had no idea how the school would deal with them by then.

Everyone was trying to persuade Zeke to give in.

But they didn't dare to be too brazen.

After all, wouldn't it be the same as having a guilty conscience if they said too much? Seeing that the situation had arrived at a stalemate, someone stood up.

It was one of the judges, Hunter.

Everyone fell silent and looked at Hunter.

They wanted to know his reaction.

Hunter's expression was grim.His eyes fell on Zeke, who was at the judges’ table.His eyes were cold and his voice was indifferent.

"What a good school anniversary competition! Are we watching a stage drama or a musical competition? Stop blowing everything out of proportions, please! You guys are all making trouble!" Hunter said with a hint of sarcasm in his voice at his first sentence.

Zeke was lost.He didn't know how to respond.

In his opinion, Hunter was a weirdo.

Hunter was known for his talent, but he never communicated with other people.

But since he had the best musical scores on the campus, he became one of the judges for today's competition.

But Hunter was too difficult to get along with.He said what he wanted, and no one could understand him.

Nobody had an idea what he was going to do now that he jumped out and seemed to be interested in meddling with the situation.

Hunter pointed at Melody and the others on the stage.

His originally cold gaze turned into admiration as he looked at them.His voice was sonorous and forceful.

There was admiration in his words.

"I dare say that this group on stage is the team with the best results I have seen so far.I believe no one should question that.This is a musical competition.If the best team with the best result can’t advance, then what is the purpose of this competition?"

"If this team can't advance, then I don't need to be a judge.I am not here for the drama!" he added.

Hunter's attitude was very tough, and what he said caused a commotion in the audience.

Even though the audience thought that Melody and her group were excellent singers, none of them had any professional background.

They just thought that their music was decent.

Hunter, who was renowned as a representative of professional musicians, was undoubtedly the biggest opposition and humiliation to the other judges who rejected Melody’s promotion.

The faces of the judges were helpless.

The matter had become so serious that they could no longer control its development.

It was no longer something that they could decide on.

Christine was starting to get dizzy from anxiety.

If this continued, something would definitely happen, and she knew that it would not end well for her.She immediately asked Reagan for help.

Reagan was about to go mad because of Melody.She really didn't know why this idiot, who couldn't do anything but fail, was able to survive through this ordeal.

But right now, she and Christine were on the same team.

Reagan didn't have a choice but to help her.

Otherwise, it would be bad for both of them.

Reagan leaned into Zeke and secretly told him what he should do.

Afterward, she gave Zeke some suggestions in a low voice, Zeke immediately made a decision.

"Everyone, listen to me.Because there is a conflict thanks to the difference in the decisions that our judges have arrived to, we shall do a technical pause.After we discuss the results, we will continue the competition.Everyone, please calm down!" Zeke hushed the audience.
