Save Myself from Desperation

Chapter 31 Chapter 31 (What? The person Megan wanted to take as a student but got rejected multiple times is actually Ashley!]

No wonder Megan said she excelled in every aspect. It's true. Ashley is beautiful with a great figure, and has a solid foundation in dance. She is flawless indeed!]

[Ashley Ramos, the woman the great Megan Rice repeatedly sought to mentor!]

So, when Megan came early to be a judge in the semi-finals, saying she found a promising talent, she was actually referring to Ashley?]

(Oh, | initially thought it was Jessica. ..]

Jessica isn’t worthy! She bribed the judges and cheated. She deserves to be publicly shamed!]

Don’t forget Jeremy, that scum.]

On the stage at this moment, Jessica, upon hearing Megan state that the person who had rejected her multiple times was Ashley, clenched her palms, nails sinking deeply into her flesh.

‘How could it be... How could it be Ashley? When Megan initially mentioned discovering a promising talent, she wasn’t talking about me but Ashley... | have been so self—conceited, thinking it was about me. How ironic!‘ She thought.

Jessica felt as if she was slapped in the face. What embarrassed her even more was the fact that Megan, who wanted to take Ashley as her student, had been rejected multiple times by Ashley.

Jessica had once begged Megan to take her, but Megan had been cold and indifferent.

On the other hand, Megan showed enthusiastic admiration for Ashley, and despite being rejected, she did not feel embarrassed. Megan even repeatedly humbled herself, only hoping to take Ashley as her student.

How could this be?

The stark contrast made Jessica burn with rage.

She looked at Ashley venomously, with surging jealousy and hatred.

In the backstage area, when Jeremy heard this news, he was shocked to the point where his pupils. dilated.

He had never expected the person that Megan had wanted as her apprentice and who rejected her, to be Ashley, his biological sister...

Jeremy was initially surprised, but then began to bask in reflected glory.

Ashley, the person the renowned Megan Rice couldn’t have as her apprentice, was his sister! Who wouldn’t envy and admire that?

Jeremy started seeing Ashley differently.

‘Ashley is good. She isn’t disgracing the Ramos family. If she wants to return to the Ramos family, | will be merciful and not oppose it anymore, he thought.

Jeremy planned to talk to Ashley after the competition and tell her that he agreed to her return to the Ramos family.

Onstage, Miranda was so excited that she nearly jumped up. Grabbing Ashley's arms with both hands, she said with bright eyes, “Ashley! It’s actually you! The apprentice Ms. Rice has always wanted is you! Oh, my. This is so amazing! But at the same time, this is to be expected because your

qualifications are truly outstanding! No wonder Ms. Rice noticed you!”

Chapter 31

Ashley was a bit dizzy from Miranda’s excitement and reached out to steady her. “Miranda, calm down first.”

Flushed with excitement, Miranda said, “How can | calm down? I’m already showing a lot of restraint! For us dancers, this is really earth-shattering news!”

Ashley was left speechless. She couldn't understand Miranda's excitement.

However, it was not Miranda's fault to be so excited. This was indeed earth-shattering news. Even the audience was buzzing, discussing it in hushed tones.

And the host was dazed and even forgot the next steps in the program.

Megan raised the microphone, smiling at Ashley on the stage. “When | learned that your grandmother’s surname is Sawyer, and you learned to dance from her as a child, | understood. Returning to his senses, the host quickly asked, “Ms. Rice, what did you understand?”

Megan paused for a while and then said respectfully, “If that predecessor surnamed Sawyer was Ashley’s teacher, then | am indeed not worthy to take Ashley as my student.”

The host was stunned.

And Megan’s statement once again shocked the entire audience.

The livestream was immediately flooded with live comments.

(What? Megan actually said she’s not worthy to take Ashley as her student?]

Ms. Rice is too modest, isn’t she?]

It doesn’t sound like modesty. Megan was genuinely respectful when saying she didn’t deserve to be Ashley’s teacher.] Sawyer... Could it be Myrna Sawyer, the legendary master dancer renowned at home and abroad?]

(Wow! Myrna was an even more esteemed heavyweight, the best of the best in the dance world! Even someone like me, who doesn’t know much about dance, has heard her name!]

If Ashley’s grandmother is really Myrna, no wonder Megan would say she’s not worthy to be Ashley’s teacher...]

The host was astonished after hearing Megan’s words. After a considerable pause, he asked, “Ms. Rice, since Ashley cannot become your last student, according to the program rules, the honor can be passed on to the next in line, the second-place winner, Jessica Ramos. Are you willing to take Jessica as your student?”

Upon hearing this, Jessica felt ecstatic, not expecting a windfall like this.

She thought she had no chance to learn from Megan, but the situation had taken a twist, and now she could become Megan’s last student!

Jessica immediately looked in Megan's direction and smiled eagerly. She enthusiastically said, “Ms. Rice, | really admire you and have always hoped to receive your guidance.”

However, Megan glanced at her coldly and said, “Jessica, you’re not worthy”

“What?”

Jessica was shocked.

She didn’t expect Megan to say in front of everyone that she wasn’t worthy!

Not expecting this turn of events, the host was almost choked by his own saliva. “Ms. Rice, I...” 12
