At that time, “Yesterday Once More” was really awesome, almost beating everyone to be number one, but in the end, it tied with Roxanne’s “A Glimmer of Love” as both the best performances.
So, there were other voices online-
“Could it have been Roxanne?”
“You saying that, it totally matched.”
“Wasn’t Roxanne the only one who could really outshine Conway Entertainment at the scene? She had Maxwell backing her.”
“Yeah, back then ‘A Glimmer of Love‘ almost couldn’t beat ‘Yesterday Once More‘.”
“Yeah, that’s right, it was the ‘Yesterday Once More‘ technical issue, so that’s why you two tied. I still remember back then people said Roxanne wasn’t a professional singer, so Roxanne was even better.”
“I also had a little insider info, said that before the first livestream, someone from Roxanne went to ‘give a hint‘ to the other contestants.”
“Did that really happen?”
“Don’t know, just some rumors, but if you look at the second live show and this one, all the contestants‘ stage quality went up a lot!”
“Yeah, yeah.”

finger at Roxanne.
Roxanne was already freaking out over there.
She kept talking with Kenneth, trying to come up with a good plan.
So, in the livestream, she was absent for a long time.
When everyone saw she wasn’t there, they started talking even more.
But she couldn’t do anything about it either, she couldn’t exactly talk to Kenneth on the livestream.
Roxanne gritted her teeth and glared hatefully at Serena’s private lounge.
“Now wasn’t the time to settle things with her, I should deal with what’s happening first and take care of her later!” Roxanne thought.
Thinking about it, she called Simon again.
On the other side, in Stephanie’s private lounge.
Stephanie and Jeremiah saw Logan and McKayla working with the marketing team to show their strengths, and the two nodded in satisfaction.
It wasn’t until now that they finally relaxed a bit.
Two people leaned against each other on the sofa.
“You said, why did she have to do this?” Jeremiah said, “Didn’t she already get what she wanted?”
This was also Stephanie’s question.
“Don’t get her,” Stephanie said. Then she thought of something and asked, “By the way, did you have anyone over there?”

“Which way?” Jeremiah asked.
Stephanie typed a Pauwia on the hidden phone.
Jeremiah shook his head and said, “No, but I could reach out to some friends I know, what’s up?”
Stephanie shook her head and said, “It’s fine. You go contact them first, I just had a question.”
The game was still going on, and things online were already blowing
“The Ethereal Voice” was already super popular, and a lot of people were paying attention to it.
The people watching the livestream were just a part of it, and even more people who didn’t have time to watch the livestream watched the highlights, so before, the impression of the player Serena was that she was great in the first match but just average in the second.
Right now, because of the trending topic online and the first two HD videos posted on the official Conway Entertainment website, everyone went to check it out.
If the discussion caused by watching the livestream was the first wave of hype, then this was the second wave of hype.
And this wave of hype spread even wider and blew up even more.
There weren’t many people who had time to watch the livestream all the way through. Most people had their own things to do, so more people waited for the edited version.
The more people watched, the hotter it got-
“Oh my god, this was way too awesome!”

“Yeah, I always watched the edited version. In the second round, all the contestants got better. Back then, I thought everyone was hiding their skills in the first round, so she took advantage of it. Didn’t expect she was actually being held back.”
“Especially in the second round, her song wasn’t as technical as the others, and since she was overshadowed, it just seemed really average.”
“I only voted for her because she was good at composing and writing lyrics, gave all my other votes to other people, really didn’t expect this, just didn’t expect it.”
“So, who did it after all? I don’t buy that ‘technical glitch‘ stuff. Investigate, we have to investigate thoroughly!”
“Supported strict investigation!”

Roxanne’s side got rushed right away.
Countless people questioned her, hoping she would give a reasonable explanation.
All this really stressed Roxanne out.
Luckily, she could still use the excuse that she was live streaming and too busy to respond, so she managed to stall for a bit and buy some time.
The other side.
In the neighborhood.
Logan and McKayla high–fived.
