Shortly after, Harry walked into the room and Ivy immediately beamed at him as she shed him an ''okay'' sign.N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive ? material.


    Harry nodded wordlessly. Ivy put on the headphones and heard the director''s instructions.


    "Hello, Ivy. I''m starting the countdown now. Five, four, three, two, one, action..."


    The script Ivy had on her table was disyed on the teleprompter before her, and it was also attached to the screen. All she needed to do was look ahead and read the script with precision. "Hello. Today is the thirteenth of January, Tuesday. Wee to the Thirty-minute News Summary..."


    It was a test session, and a simpler script was used to help students limatize to the work as fast as possible.


    The testing session meant more to Ivy than it did to Andrea, as second-year students had the chance the practice in the broadcasting room on campus.


    Ten minutester, Ivy heard the voice of the directoring from her headphones. "Cut. Good job!"


    Ivy sighed a breath of relief and took the headphones off before handing them back to the staff member.


    "Mr. Gardner, what do you think of Ivy''s broadcast?" Andrea asked.


    She was slightly upset that Harry had pointed out the ws in her skills as she felt that she had performed fairly well considering how she was not a professional broadcaster. Harry thought about it and said, "She has the same issue as you. She was too nervous and that affected the tone of her voice."


    Andrea sighed an inward breath of relief at his words.


    She thought that Ivy had performed well but felt slightly dazed as she listened to Harry''sment, all the while wondering what kind of broadcaster could earn Harry''s approval. Ivy returned the headphones and walked outside. "Mr. Gardner, can I go and sign the contract now?"


    Harry smiled. "Aren''t you going to ask for my feedback?"


    "I heard you say that I was too nervous and that affected my voice," Ivy said. "I will try my best not to look nervous next time."


    "Haha! Come with me." Harry left the room with Ivy.


    Andrea felt envious as she watched the two leave and thought to herself, "He is taking her to sign the contract himself? It looks like he prefers Ivy. Is it because Ivy is prettier?"


    As she stepped out of the lobby, she took out her phone and sent a message to the chat group with her friends.


    [Ivy Foster always acts like she is above everyone on campus and transforms into apletely different person at the station! She is practically sticking to Mr. Gardner, and I can''t help but wonder if there''s some kind of connection between those two.]


    [She is so disgusting! I knew that she is a woman who will do whatever it takes to get what she wants when I saw the photos of her meeting a foreign guy online One of her friends replied.


    [Andrea, how did her broadcast go? Did you stay to hear her? People say that she has a thick ent, so why would the station take someone like her? Even if she has connections, she can''t simply get in because of that! The audience are no fools!] Another friend added.


    Andrea fell into silence at her friends'' messages.


    Objectively, Ivy did well, and Andrea could not find any issue with Ivy''s pronunciation or gestures; she only said that Ivy had a connection to Harry out of jealousy.
