Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James)
Chapter 396

One of the cute girls became displeased. "What do you mean by that? Do you think we wouldn't dare to do anything to you just because Skye has your back?"

"Sophie, you're only here because of your online popularity! We're the ones who have been diligently practicing our craft every day! Don't you think what you're doing is despicable?" The speaker was one of the trainees, known for her cool beauty.

Sophie raised an eyebrow. "Do you think it's unfair?"

"Of course, it's unfair!" The surrounding ladies chimed in, their faces unable to hide their resentment.

Sophie coolly responded, "The world has never been about absolute fairness. Some people rely on their brains, some on their physique, and others on their popularity. If you're in this industry and still expect fairness, you are just naïve children."

The sweet-faced girl, who often boasted about her father being the chairman of Aldridge Global, stepped forward, "That's just sophistry!"

"Sophistry?" Sophie stepped closer, lightly touching the other's necklace, which was worth a small fortune, "This is a luxury brand from abroad, right? Worth at least a hundred thousand dollars. Do you think ordinary people would spend that much on a necklace? You got into this studio because of your family's influence. You stepped on others to climb up. What right do you have to talk to me about fairness?" "What did you say!"

Sophie then turned to the cool-looking woman. "Are you going to say that your family isn't wealthy, but you still made it here? Let me tell you, you're here because you have a pretty face. You got in by leveraging your looks."

Sophie scanned the room. "Each of you had your own way in, and I'm here because I have clout and create fan frenzies. It's beneficial for Aldridge Global. No one should look down on anyone in here!" Sophie was far from a pushover, leaving the ladies at a loss for words.

Sophie continued, "If you wish to compete with me in the future, I'm all for it. But if you plan to use underhanded tactics against me, I'll see it through to the end."

With that, Sophie walked to an empty spot, adding, "But let me remind you, I'm not easy to bully. Think carefully about the consequences before you act. I never said I didn't use connections to get here." By openly admitting to using her connections, Sophie left everyone speechless.

Everyone here was eager to prove themselves, and yet, here was Sophie openly admitting to having an advantage.

The cute-looking girl spoke up unhappily, "What's the point in practicing then? She's already admitted to having an unfair advantage. Do we even stand a chance?"

Another chimed in, "Then leave if you want, as long as you can afford the penalty fee."

At the mention of a penalty fee, Sophie paused. There had been some mention of contract termination, but what did that have to do with a court notice?

"Thirty million? Where would I find that kind of money to pay the company?"

"You know you can't pay, so you might as well just coast along. In the end, the company will debut us to avoid losses, though we might not earn as much as the chosen one." the cool-looking girl hinted, glancing at Sophie.

Sophie had noticed from the start that this girl seemed to be the leader of S Corporation, the kind who others listened to.

But Sophie didn't take it to heart. Gordon had her debut, perhaps not taking it seriously just because Russell Enterprises had recently gone bankrupt. Her debut aligned with public sentiment, serving as a promotion for the Aldridges.

After all, she had never seen anything about a breach of contract fee for leaving the training in her contract.

On her first day, Sophie was just getting familiar with the environment.

That evening, Skye had her review her fellow trainees' profiles.

The leading cold-looking woman was named Shirley. The girl whose father was the chairman of Aldridge Global was named Wendy. The cute-looking girl was Jean.

These three were her strongest competitors, while the rest didn't stand out as much.
