Following charlie Wade, he didn’t even bother to say hello to anyone as he left.


    Seeing charlie Wade’s departure, Sanjing Ryotaka felt an unexpected sense of relief. Despite his years of experience in the martial arts world and elite training within a top-tier family like Sanjing, he couldn’t shake off the intense pressure charlie Wade had exuded. It baffled him that a young man from China could evoke such a strong sense of oppression. Only when charlie Wade turned and left did Ryotaka’s spirit feel unburdened.


    Tawanna, like Ryotaka, also felt an overwhelming sense of intimidation in charlie Wade’s presence. Now that he was gone, she too felt as though she had narrowly escaped a disaster. Unable to suppress her emotions, tears began to stream down her face.


    As a world-renowned “proud daughter of heaven,” Tawanna had never encountered such a terrifying experience. The feeling of brushing so close to the edge of death was something entirely new to her, and her tears were an emotional release for the ordeal she had just endured.


    Trevor, standing beside her, no longer dwelled on their earlier conflict. He reached out and pulled Tawanna into his arms, speaking gently, “It’s okay, baby. It’s over now. We should be thankful to still be alive. That alone is worth celebrating.”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Tawanna nodded, understanding his words. Surviving such a cmity gave her a newfound appreciation for life. In moments like these, nothing seemed more important than simply being alive.<fn1fa6> Follow current nov?ls on ?ovelFind</fn1fa6>


    However, controlling her tears was easier said than done. Relieved to have Trevor’sforting presence, she allowed herself to cry freely in his embrace.


    Mitsui Xinmei, who had a personal connection with Tawanna, stepped forward to offer some pragmatic advice. “Tawanna, you need to calm down and focus on the uing performance. Letting your emotions spiral will only hurt you. You must act as if nothing happened tonight. No one on stage can sense anything amiss.”


    Rather thanforting her with kind words like Trevor, Mitsui Xinmei’s direct approach hit the core of the issue. Tawanna quickly realized that her emotional instability and crying could affect her voice, sap her energy, and ultimatelypromise her performance. Tonight’s show had to be wless—for the fans, and for herself.


    Resolutely, Tawanna wiped away her tears, taking deep breaths to regain herposure. She silently vowed to deliver a perfect performance for her fans and to prove herself worthy in charlie Wade’s eyes.


    Seeing that Tawanna was beginning to collect herself, Sanjing Ryotaka turned to address everyone. “Miss Tawanna, there’s a world waiting outside.”
