Things got to this point, if Alaricka didn’t come out, things were about to get out of control.
Alaricka stood up, looked the man in the eye, and said in a calm, steady voice.
“Okay, I agreed to make my scoring details public.”
Paloma frowned in a way that showed she didn’t really agree.
Actually, it wasn’t just this year. In past years, there were also eliminated contestants accusing the ones who stayed of pulling strings.
Paloma knew these contestants were all proud and thought they were special, and some of them even had I look down on others written all over their faces.

So, when they announced the sixty–fourth place, she specifically stressed the fairness of the competition.
This guy was even worse.
Paloma remembered this guy. He didn’t do well in the competition, ranked way below ninetieth. No matter how you looked at it, he couldn’t compare to Alarieka.

He talked all high and mighty, but actually it was always just his selfishness and pride at work.
Paloma was already used to this kind of thing.
She would handle it well, and wouldn’t let Alarieka suffer this kind of unfair treatment.
She just didn’t expect that Alaricka would actually step up and even agree to make her scoring details public.

Paloma looked at her and nodded to herself.
She was a nice girl.
At Alarieka’s insistence, the judges made Alarieka’s scoring details public.

Hearing what the man said, Alaricka smiled a little.
She knew that after that, she didn’t have to step up anymore.
This man pushed himself into a dead end.
This man had backbone, he didn’t give up, and he didn’t want to be slandered or looked down on. Well, these judges were the same, and they were even prouder than this man.
The man kept saying again and again that she bribed the judges, which was not only humiliating for her, but also for the judges.
What the man said was just to force the other judges not to stay out of it anymore.
After a while, just like Alarieka expected, one of the other judges finally stood up.
