Chapter: 88(The Big Announcement)

[Chapter 88]

Alex and Kelly were still both a little dazed when Alex's phone rang. He took it out and saw that it was a video call from Debbie.

He glanced nervously at Kelly and then accepted the call.

Debbie's beautiful face appeared on the screen. She had just finished unpacking in Chicago, and she couldn't wait to speak to Alex.

"Alex, where are you?" she asked, smiling sweetly.

"I'm in the cafeteria," he answered. "Look, I'm having spaghetti." He angled the camera to show his plate.

"Oh, why do you have two forks?" she asked curiously.

"Ah." Panic flashed across Alex's face for a moment, and then he smiled lightly. "I accidentally dropped my fork on the floor and had to get another one."

When she heard Alex lie, Kelly's bottom lip trembled.

"Oh, okay." Debbie didn't seem worried. She moved her phone around the room, showing it to Alex. "Look, this is the practice room Janice got for us. We'll be rehearsing here before we go to the talent show."

"Hey, it looks pretty good," Alex said, and then he frowned with concern. "If you're staying in Chicago for a few days, are you sure you don't need me there?"

"We'll be here for about a week or so," she said. "I told you that I don't need you to come. I'm trying to do what's best for you."

"Okay," he said. "Take good care of yourself in Chicago, and I'll see you when you get back."

After talking to Alex for a while, Debbie ended the call.

"You love your girlfriend a lot," Kelly said with a faint smile.

"Yes," Alex said. "So, do you understand now?" After talking to Debbie, he was resolved again. He had to be clearer with Kelly. He was no longer afraid of Kelly getting more attached to him, but he was worried that he might fall in love with her.

"I understand," Kelly said. "But I'm still not giving up. As I said before, perhaps after a while, you'll realize that I'm more compatible with you." She wasn't avoiding reality, but she refused to hide her feelings for him.

Then he got angry. Kelly was intentionally trying to destroy his relationship with Debbie. Scowling at her, he got up and left the cafeteria.

Kelly had a faint smile on her face as she watched him leave. Then her gaze slowly shifted to the plate of spaghetti on the table. She picked up a fork and started to eat, feeling a little sad.

Janice called Debbie and the others together. From the moment the five girls set foot in Chicago, their hearts were pounding with excitement.

They dreamed of becoming famous and earning lots of money, and now that they had arrived in Chicago for the talent show, they had officially taken the first step.

"Everyone seems to be doing really well," Janice stated. "I hope you can all stay so positive until we have successfully competed in the talent show."

She looked around at them. "As you all know, the Sky's the Limit is currently the most popular talent show on TV and the internet, and their sponsor is Lee Dempsey. For this year's show, he has invited four celebrities to be the judges."

Lee Dempsey was well known for being exceptionally rich. Although he wasn't as famous as some other businessmen, his wealth and achievements were impressive.

The girls all understood what Janice was saying. This was their big chance to make their mark.

Melissa, Katie, and Olivia had been quiet since they got off the plane. They were determined to do their best to show off in the talent show and to fight for victory.
