Chapter 241: Chapter 241: Compliment Exchange Scene
This result was something Silas Donovan could not accept.
So, seeing Ethan Chase effortlessly exchange WeChat with July Quinn, Silas hurriedly presented his own WeChat QR code.
"Beauty Quinn, scan mine too, let’s exchange ideas about music."
However, after July Quinn added Ethan Chase’s WeChat, she didn’t even glance at Silas Donovan.
Silas Donovan immediately complained incessantly, "Why add him and not me? That’s not fair. Is it because I once stole his girlfriend?"
But July Quinn continued to ignore him, as if treating Silas Donovan as if he were air.
This slightly eased the stuffiness in Ethan Chase’s chest.
At this point, Nina Quinn also greeted everyone.
"I’m Nina Quinn, currently a senior at Westmarch University of Media Arts."
In addition to winning the favor of other participants with her affability, Nina Quinn actively greeted July Quinn.
"July, this is our first time appearing together, let’s take a picture for social media."
Saying this, she moved closer to July Quinn, intending to take a picture together.
She meant to portray a sisterly bond, to dispel the previous "rumors" online about their fight over Nathan Jacobs!
She assumed that July Quinn, like her, did not want further involvement with Nathan Jacobs and would acquiesce to her actions.
Moreover, Nina knew the camera was currently on them.
No matter how arrogant July Quinn was, she wouldn’t dare refuse her goodwill in front of the camera.
But she didn’t expect July Quinn to remain herself.
As soon as Nina touched her hand, she was coldly brushed away.
"Don’t touch me, disgusting."
Silas Donovan: "..."
Suddenly realizing, July Quinn wasn’t harsh with him at all earlier.
Nina Quinn: "..."
The production team: "..."
This was somewhat different from the script they had prepared beforehand.
In Holly Houston’s plan, this show resembled the inspiring group effort style of "Creation Camp."
But just in case, Holly Houston had prepared a script for their show.
According to Holly’s design, this part should have showcased the unity and progress of all participants.
Yet July Quinn’s unexpected behavior tore up their script, trampling it underfoot.
Watching this, Holly Houston was so furious her nose almost bent with anger, nearly calling for a stop to reshoot the segment.
But at that moment, the head of the editing team leaned in and whispered to her, "Miss Houston, no need to reshoot. We can edit this to be a gimmick, a highlight, creating a loner persona for July Quinn."
"Yes, why didn’t I think of that?"
Holly Houston’s eyes lit up immediately.
She had invested heavily to get July Quinn on the show, wasn’t it to bring her down?
Now without her intervention, July Quinn had handed over the buzz on a silver platter.
With the hype and promotion, the initial discussion would be sufficient, attracting more advertisers and investors.
Once the greeting segment was over, the next step was room selection and a centralized training session.
To emphasize a fair and open process, room assignment was decided by drawing lots.
As a result, July Quinn was placed in the same room with Nina Quinn and newcomer Lynn Sawyer.
Compared with the striking looks of Nina and July Quinn, Lynn Sawyer’s features seemed quite plain.
Yet this plainness happened to cater to the current trend of delicate beauty.
Even Nina Quinn couldn’t help but flatter her appearance insincerely.
"Lynn, you’re really beautiful."
Lynn’s smile became more apparent, though she still spoke with modesty.
"Nina, you’re truly the beautiful one. And so gentle, it’s impossible to feel jealous!"
Hmm, it was a scene of mutual flattery.
After this superficial exchange satisfied each other’s vanity, the newly formed "plastic sisters" began to delve deeper into each other’s backgrounds.
"Lynn, were you also in the art department at Westmarch’s top university before? I don’t recall ever seeing you?"
What seemed like casual small talk to Nina appeared to unsettle Lynn, who nervously glanced at July Quinn instead of answering.
