Unconscious Husband: Meet Her Love In Silence by Ken Slaner

Chapter 1038

“Why’s she the arbiter of musical beauty? The experts had no complaints. Her criticism seems baseless!” “Finally, some drama!”

Sadie’s face betrayed a hint of irritation.

“Your voice isn’t meant for this stage. It made the performance seem crass,” she snapped.

Tom, visibly angered, countered, “How many songs have you put out?

I've been in the rock scene for over ten years, and no one’s ever accused me of lacking musical beauty.”

She retorted with faux sweetness, “Rock, you say? How’s that relevant to a stage performance like this? Or maybe the song was intended to sound that way.”

Tom scoffed, “So, you’re suggesting Mr. Cugat didn’t arrange it well?”

Caught off guard, Sadie had no reply.

The host, sensing the mounting tension, swiftly intervened, prompting Sadie to provide her score.

With a smirk, Sadie gave them a mere two points.

Acollective gasp echoed.

She coolly explained, “Think of this as motivation. A high score might make you complacent. I’m doing you a favor.”

The audacity of her rationale stunned the audience. Given that the show’s rules didn’t exclude the extremes, Sadie’s score significantly impacted the group’s average.

Disheartenment and anger marred the performers’ expressions. They had put in five days of dedicated rehearsals, only to be casually dismissed.

Tom’s frustration was palpable. He couldn’t take it any longer.

Scoffing, he made a hasty exit from the stage, indifferent to the ongoing broadcast.

Even the show’s production team didn’t anticipate that the first episode would be so awkward.

The comments under the live broadcast created a buzz. The general consensus was that while the team’s performance in the show was surprisingly brilliant, the controversy that followed had turned it into a social media explosion.

The controversy led to heated debates in the comment sections amongst the netizens. As a result, the show’s popularity soared and it quickly exceeded 100 million viewership, with so many people watching the livestream the pressure became more and more intense.

One by one, the remaining teams quickly completed their performance. Overall, Ariana’s team wasn’t bad, but the two points Sadie gave them put them in a bad spot. When the final rankings were announced, no one was surprised that Ariana’s team placed Last.

The other teams all received decent scores from unbiased judges.
