A Life Beyond Limits (Jack Holland) novel Chapter 979

Luca's face darkened instantly. "Mateo, watch your words."

"What did I say? Isn't it true? Should I tell Mr. Chambers that you're holding up our practice and delaying rehearsal?"

The moment Mateo finished talking, his waiting fans erupted into a noisy commotion.

"Exactly! Mati's got a point—our time's too valuable to waste on some nobody!"

"That guy's time is cheap, but our Mateo's time is gold."

"Hey, you! Get out of here! We can't have you messing up Mateo's rehearsal."

Mateo's fans shouted for Jack to leave, but Luca's supporters weren't about to back down. They fired back angrily.

"Who are you to badmouth him? Do you think your Mateo is so high and mighty? Don't be so dramatic."

"I stand with Lulu! It's great for old friends to catch up, and besides, his friend looks pretty handsome too!"

"Lulu, stay strong! Maybe Mateo should be the one leaving NEOX!"

The bickering escalated as Mateo's fans hurled insults. "Shut up! Keep this up, and Mr. Chambers from Starlight Entertainment will have Luca kicked out of NEOX!"

"Oh, please! As if Mateo has that kind of power. What a bunch of losers!"

As the fan base began turning on itself, some blamed Jack for starting the feud and started shouting at him.

"You—get out of here! You're ruining the vibe in NEOX."

"Get him out of here!"

Luca scanned the crowd before locking eyes with Mateo. His voice was low and firm as he said, "Let me make one thing clear—you don't have the right to kick out my old friend. While my friend was doing solo concerts and tours, you were probably still trying out for talent shows."

The crowd gasped in shock. They couldn't understand why Luca had said that.

Could it be that his classmate had also held concerts?

Most of the die-hard fans here knew every celebrity out there. But they were completely unfamiliar with Jack and had never seen him before.

"Your classmate's not some opera singer, is he? A solo concert? Please!" Mateo's face was a mask of contempt.

He had crossed paths with every big name in the entertainment industry. But someone like Jack? He'd never even heard of him.

Then, Luca said, "His name might not mean anything to you. But if I told you he's the legendary "Soul" everyone's talking about, do you still think you have the right to stand here and speak to him?"
