Chapter 239

Yet, at that moment, Jayleen knew better than to argue.

She acknowledged her mistake of being overly ambitious for quick success, which led to her downfall.

Kristy, seeing Jayleen unable to outmaneuver Selah, was visibly frustrated.

She shot Lindsey a sharp look but quickly masked her annoyance, feigning benevolence.

Kristy softly remarked, “I always maintained Selah wasn’t capable of such actions.

We really can’t believe everything we see online.

We should be more discerning moving forward.

Miss Archer, this incident must be a learning experience for you.

Be careful of jumping to conclusions based on hearsay.

”

Kristy deftly shifted the blame onto the one who released the photo.

Given the photo’s deceptive nature, some attendees nodded in agreement, commenting, “It’s true, the scum who forge that photo is alarmingly skilled.

It’s difficult to differentiate between fake and real.

”

Jayleen glanced at them, a mix of gratitude and relief on her face, before admitting, “I accept my fault.

I’ll be more careful in the future and avoid repeating this mistake.

”

Lindsey had little interest in observing the act put on by the two women, Glancing sideways, she spotted a phone camera discreetly aimed in their direction.

Someone had been covertly broadcasting the entire scene online.

Following the recent turn of events, the online public opinion had shifted dramatically.

“That Lindsey is not only pretty, she’s also impressively insightful.

It’s remarkable how she noticed such fine details.

”

“Looks like Selah was unjustly maligned.

Someone must have intentionally tried to smear her reputation.

”

“I feel guilty for doubting Selah… From here on out, I’m her devoted fan.

”

Meanwhile, in an online poll for the lead actress in Vincent’s upcoming film, Selah’s popularity had soared, swiftly eclipsing Kristy’s.

Lindsey decided to take advantage of this opportunity to deal with Jayleen.

In the midst of effusive praises showered on Lindsey’s keen insight, she drew nearer to the phone camera.

Her demeanor was humble as she said, “Fortune smiled upon me to uncover a flaw in the photo.

Truth be told, Miss Archer surpasses me in capabilities.

She apparently graduated from an unknown mediocre college, not prestigious.

Her entry into Vitality Entertainment saw an unremarkable start, yet she persisted.

Eventually, a slew of golden opportunities found her, propelling her through the ranks to the zenith as a director.

I pale in comparison to her.

”

Lindsey’s sincerity brimmed with admiration, yet it spurred furrowed brows and hushed murmurs among the guests.

“Isn’t Vitality Entertainment obsessed with educational attainment?

How did they embrace a graduate from the shadows?”

“But it rings true.

Jayleen was an enigma, climbing from obscurity to helm the Agent Department,” remarked another.

“Perhaps her meteoric ascent stemmed from her latent prowess.

”

“Her initial lackluster performance and sudden rise raise suspicion Something must be amiss with those ‘golden opportunities’ speculated another guest.
