Daddy! Come Home for Dinner!

This in turn calmed Morgan Zhekova and the Old Madam, boosting their confidence.

At this point, Grace Green announced, “Firstly, we will announce the scores from 31st to 40th place.”.

Not only the audience, but also the contestants’ hearts are beating faster, becoming increasingly nervous.

They all prayed that they would not end up in the last 20 places.

Zoe Silverstone nervously stared at the screen, only to find herself placed 38th.

Zoe Silverstone’s heart sank instantly.

“Would the ten contestants please remove your aprons and come over here,” Grace Green said again.

Zoe Silverstone removed her apron, giving Cindy Clarke a resentful look.

Cindy Clarke raised an eyebrow, thinking it wasn’t her who caused Zoe Silverstone’s elimination. Why was Zoe Silverstone looking at her with such resentment?

If she had that much power, she would have made sure Zoe Silverstone didn’t even pass the auditions

Once the ten contestants were standing behind Grace Green, she said, “Now, we will reveal the vote totals for those in the 21st to 30th positions.” Cindy Clarke was also nervously scanning several times and didn’t see her name.

At that point, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

No matter what position she ended up in, at least, she was sure that she had advanced to the next round.

The ten contestants also stood behind Grace Green, forming a line.

“Now, let’s look at the votes for those in 11th to 20th place,” Grace Green said. Iris Doone saw herself, barely made the cut-off for advancement, at 20th place.

Iris Doone exhaled a breath of relief; just advancing was enough.

In the next round, she resolved to show everyone what she was made of.

Blake Walker was in the 15th position, and they both advanced again.

“Cain Velman isn’t in this group,” Blake Walker mentioned to Iris Doone, as he walked over to her side, “Looks like she made it into the top ten again.” Iris Doone did not reply, her expression somewhat sour.

Seeing this, Blake Walker then said, “Don’t take to heart what the judges said earlier, none of us think anything of it. Your ingredients were obviously different from Cain Velman’s. Just because Velman has used a method, does it mean that no one else can use it? That’s a bit too arrogant!”

“But after what the judges said, I’ve lost face.” Iris Doone muttered.

“This is just the top thirty, the competition gets even fiercer from here on out. Who will remember this slight?” Blake Walker scoffed, “The judges seem to favor Cain Velman very much. It’s one thing for three people to vote for Velman, but for them to say that to you… That could seriously affect the audience’s impression of you.”

Iris Doone looked over at Cindy Clarke and said, “People like Cain Velman shouldn’t even be allowed to participate in the competition! Her results aren’t fair at all!”

At this point, it was finally time for the 1st to 10th place results.

Blake Walker murmured, “I hope to god Cain Velman isn’t in the lead, that would be too sickening. Who knows how much of her score is inflated?” At this moment, the results for the top ten were displayed on the screen.

Instinctively, everyone looked to see who was in first place.

To everyone’s disbelief, it was Cindy Clarke.

Cindy Clarke: 90 votes + 30, a total of 911 votes!

The first 90 votes were from the audience voting.

The following 30 votes were from the three judges.

Putting aside these 30 votes, out of 1000 votes, what does it mean for Cindy Clarke to monopolize 90?

That would be equivalent to nearly one-tenth of the votes among all 40 contestants!

Zoe Silverstone was shocked as she looked at the screen, as if there was a calculation error.

“Could the advancing contestants please come and stand with the judges, ”

Grace Green said..
