Chapter 344
“I get it. Be careful and don’t let the cat out of the bag,” replied Sienna.
At this moment, in the president’s office in Haddock Group.
Sienna reported to Dixon about Ashlyn’s situation.
Dixon narrowed his eyes. One could not read his mind from the indifferent look on his face.
“Since Janet’s family is looking for her secretly, why haven’t those losers ask you for more money?”
“I have made the full payment to them already. I guess they must be worried about the police, thus switching off
their phones. In fact, they are uncontactable now as I can’t reach them on their phones,” explained Sienna warily.
“Losers!” Dixon chided coldly.
“Find those losers and get rid of them!”
“Yes!” Trembling with fear, Sienna left the office.
Get rid of them.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSienna understood what Dixon meant by those words.
Taking in a deep breath, she began to send out orders to search for those thugs.
But they had no idea that Janet had returned home safely.
Everything progressed smoothly in accordance to Ashlyn’s plans.
Time passed slowly.
All the performances were fabulous. The training, which the performers had undergone for the last couple of
months, paid off.
The performers had improved tremendously, particularly those performing the dance segments. The folk dancers
were graceful, while the modern dancers’ vigor enraptures many. Many were also impressed with the fluid
movements of the elegant ballroom dancers.
On the other hand, there was a wide variety of singing segments and sketches, entertaining the vast audience.
Furthermore, the audience learnt that most of the sketches were written by Madeline Saunders.
Needless to say, Madeline Saunders is a prominent figure. Not only can she draw, play the piano but she is also a
popular author!
Her last was published three years ago, and her fans were pining for her new since then.
At that time, her last had caused a huge sensation, racking up immense profits. In fact, its sales record had
topped the chart for over a year.
The sales were still going strong till date, resulting in several rounds of re-publications by the publisher.
Needless to say, the sketches written by Madeline Saunders were terrific! The scripts coupled with the convincing
acting of the actors resulted in a great performance, enjoyed immensely by the audience.
Lucas was seated among the audience, but he didn’t care about the performances. His mind was occupied with the
thoughts of seeing her...
But Ashlyn did not appear on stage even after many performances. Finally, he could not help but ask impatiently,
“When will Ashlyn be on stage?”
Spencer swallowed hard and checked out the program list hurriedly. After looking through the list a couple of times,
he replied finally, “Mr. Nolan, Ms. Berry is the producing director and won’t be performing on stage.”

The coldness he emitted sent a chill down the spines of the other prominent figures sitting at the same table.
What is wrong with him? The atmosphere seems to have become tense suddenly.
On the other hand, in the backstage.
Charlotte’s face was ghastly white as she hugged her cello tightly. Her beautiful eyes were wide with terror.
Her exquisite makeup was unable to disguise the terror she was feeling now.
In fact, her hands were trembling badly.
I will be up in the next second... There are so many people here... I can’t do it! I will die of fright... This is so scary... I
feel terrible...
She felt as if she could not breathe.
Lochlan was trying his best to encourage her. Looking worried, he held her hands tightly and said softly, “Lottie, you
can do it. You must overcome your phobia. Uncle Lochlan believes in you. You are a big girl now, so you have
nothing to fear. Lottie, you will put on a great performance, just like how you have done during your practice. Do
you understand that?”
