Chapter 452 
The director smiled awkwardly, hesitating to speak. It wasn’t until Sevena arrived that he approached and greeted her 
With her prestigious background from the Norman family, despite recent online controversies, the storm had gradually subsided under the management of Brooks Group in recent days. 
Wanting to maintain his composure, the director addressed Serena with utmost respect. 
Serena walked up to Sergio and greeted politely, “Mr. Brooks.” 
Sergio responded with a nonchalant hum. 
After a glance around, she inquired, “Why isn’t Mrs. Brooks here today?” 
Sergio’s demeanor visibly tensed at the mention of “Mrs. Brooks“, 
“Well, Ms. Scott isn’t feeling well today and couldn’t make it,” explained the director. 

“I see. What a pity,” Serena murmured, taking her seat among the special guests. 
As a special guest, Serena had expected to weigh in on Maeve’s debut. Maeve’s absence today was unexpected and disappointing to her. 
Observing the silence among the three, the director discreetly moved on to other tasks. 
The show continued its filming, and the team of female trainees took to the stage for their dance performance, captivating the audience 
Among the audience, Marve, concealed behind a mask, sat conspicuously and applauded slowly as she watched the performers on stage. 
She had noticed a cleaning lady backstage wearing a cap. 
The next moment, the woman shed her cap and cleaning attice, revealing a trainee outfit beneath, and swiftly dashed onto the stage. 

Before the director could call for a halt, the camera zoomed in on the woman’s face. 
It was Cathy who had been expelled from the Hackett Group 
“Out! Cut! What’s happening here?” 
The show continued to be recorded, and this unexpected intrusion instantly infuriated the director. 
“Who are you? How did you get in here?” 
“Cathy? How did she get in?” someone chimed. 
“Oh my god, why is she dressed like that?” 
Fearing Cathy might pose a threat, the trainees quickly dispersed into comers. 
Backstage, Zander watched in stunned silence, struggling for words. 
“Damn, what’s going on with Cathy? Is she out of her mind? Doesn’t she understand this is a recorded session? 
“With Mr. Jefferson and Mr. Brooks present, can the show continue with all this chaos?”” 
Hearing those words, Mason furrowed his brow, silently questioning if Maeve was involved. 
“I’m Cathy Burns, leader of Hackett Group’s trainees,” Cathy introduced herself to the camera. 
The director empted in fury, yelling at the security guards, “Are you blind? Get her out of here!” 
The guards rushed forward, but Cathy showed no fear. Instead, she retrieved a blade from her pocket and charged toward Maeve in the audience. 
People screamed in terror, scattering in fear. Even the director was at a loss for words. 
“Don’t move! Or I’ll kill her!”
