Chapter 225

Lindsey’s expression turned into a frown.

She had only mentioned to Jayleen that she’d give it a shot.

When did she agree to be demoted if she failed?

“What a shame! She made the wrong bet! Can’t believe Selah, like Lindsey, leads such a scandalous life.

They both seem to have climbed the ladder relying on men!”

“They’re cut from the same cloth!”

There was a burst of laughter in the office.

Lindsey didn’t bother to argue with them and walked towards her office.

At this time, a voice came from behind.

“Miss Archer, there you are!”

Lindsey stopped and turned around to see Jayleen approaching confidently.

“Lindsey, you’ve surely heard about Selah’s situation.

It seems our company made the right call.

Mr.

Lopez will soon announce the Leading lady of his film.

Looks like your efforts will be in vain.

”

Around the department, others chimed in, “With the way public opinion is swaying now, Selah’s reputation is in ruins.

It’s almost certain that Kristy will be the lead in Mr.

Lopez’s new movie! If certain individuals are wise enough, they should proactively resign from their positions.

”

“That’s right.

Better to leave now than be dismissed later.

Then she won’t be able to show her face ever again!”

Lindsey realized that Jayleen had orchestrated this entire situation to push her out of the company from the start.

So, Jayleen was the one responsible for tarnishing Selah’s reputation and elevating Kristy’s status in the public eye this time.

As a director at Vitality Entertainment, Jayleen was quite cunning, but her methods weren’t utilized in the right way.

Lindsey nodded with a gentle smile and looked at Jayleen calmly, “Miss Archer, do you want to make a bet with me?”

“What bet?” Jayleen crossed her arms over her chest and cast a disdainful glance at Lindsey.

“If Kristy lands the lead in Mr.

Lopez’s upcoming movie, I’ll leave the company of my own accord.

But if Selah gets the part, it’ll show your lack of judgment.

Then, you should step down and make way for someone more competent.

Are you up for the bet?”

Lindsey’s proposal immediately sparked a buzz.

“Oh my God! Wow, can you believe Lindsey’s challenging Miss Archer right here?”

“How can she propose such a bet? Does Selah even stand a chance at getting the role?”

“No way! Selah has only just returned, and she’s currently embroiled in scandals that have tarnished her reputation.

Mr.

Lopez’s upcoming movie is a major investment targeting international awards.

It’s highly unlikely he’d choose a has-been star with a controversial past as the lead.

That would be self-sabotage, wouldn’t it?”

“Exactly, Kristy is the ideal choice for both Mr.

Lopez and the audience.

Lindsey’s bound to lose!”

Jayleen’s eyebrows lifted in surprise.

Just as she was searching for a reason to oust Lindsey from Vitality Entertainment, Lindsey approached her with an offer.

“I’m confident in Kristy’s abilities.

I’ll take that bet.

But remember, if you lose, you’ll have to leave.

I do feel a bit sorry for you.

”

“I’m prepared for that.

Don’t worry about me.

” With a smile, Lindsey scanned the room and said, “Everyone here is a witness.

If you lose, Miss Archer remember you promised to step down as a director!

Lindsey then gracefully turned and made her way to her office, not looking back.
