Chapter 1088 The welcome partyHowever, Charlotte was unable to invite Joe for a meal in time because she was too busy.
In the first year of enrollment, there was a tradition where the student union would organize a welcome party, and the freshmen
would participate.
As the youngest student in her year, Charlotte was naturally assigned a performance right away.
She joined a dance performance and was chosen as the lead dancer by her classmates’ recommendation.
Fortunately, Charlotte had studied dance for several years before, so although she wasn’t particularly skilled, she was more than
capable of participating in the welcome party. Soon, Charlotte became immersed in the busy rehearsals, and perhaps knowing
how busy she was, Joe didn’t disturb her.
The day of the formal performance arrived quickly.
Since Charlotte also needed to host the event, she temporarily left her dance costume in the dressing room.
Normally, the dressing room was bustling with people, so leaving the costume there shouldn’t have been a problem.
However, when Charlotte returned to the dressing room after hosting the event, she found that her dance costume had been
damaged.
“Who did this?” Eva was both angry and anxious.
She knew how much time Charlotte had put into rehearsing for this performance, and to see it ruined just before the show was
unacceptable to anyone.
However, Charlotte remained calm. She looked over the damaged costume and said with a hint of surprise, “Fortunately, the
damage to the costume isn’t too severe, perhaps there's still a chance to fix it.”novelbin
Upon hearing Charlotte's words, everyone knew it wasn’t the time to find the culprit. Soon, someone brought a needle and
thread. Although they had the tools, no one knew how to sew. Just then, Wendy walked over. Seeing the damaged costume in
Charlotte’s hands, she furrowed her brow slightly and said, “Since your costume is already damaged, why not just withdraw from
the performance?”
“How can you do that?” Eva immediately stepped forward. “Charlotte has put in so much time for this performance, how can you
not let her perform just because her costume is damaged?”
“Are we really going to let one person ruin the entire performance?” Wendy also insisted.
She looked around and asked, “Are you willing to let Charlotte not perform, or are you willing to take the risk of the entire
performance being ruined just to let her go on stage?”
Many members of the performance group lowered their heads.
Although they sympathized with Charlotte’s situation, they had all invested a significant amount of time in this dance, and no one
wanted to see it fail because of one person. Eva, looking at the silent performance group, was so angry that her eyes turned red.
“Have you forgotten how Charlotte taught each of you the moves? And now you're all...”
Charlotte stopped the agitated Eva and looked calmly at the group. “It’s not necessary. | can fix this costume myself.”
