Chapter 718

In the afternoon, amid a flurry of tasks that made her forget about the talent show, her phone broke the silence.

With a weary tone, Lindsey answered, “Hello, this is Lindnita Artists Agency…”

But within seconds, her demeanor shifted as she heard the news, standing abruptly and asking, “Pardon?”

The voice on the other end repeated, “This is Star Search.

We made a mistake with the guest list.

What we should cancel is the other guests, not Xiomara and Sumner.

We’re sorry and would like to extend a renewed invitation for them to participate in the show.

”

Lindsey was baffled.

They got it wrong?

The assistant director was so aggressive before.

Now the crew said they got it wrong?

Were they taking her for a fool?

Trying to control her rising frustration, Lindsey listened as the caller continued, “Additionally, we’d like to invite Ms.

Selah Potter from your company to be a judge.

Her vast experience and talent make her an ideal choice.

We believe a partnership would be mutually beneficial.

Please consider it.

”

The caller offered Lindsey a graceful way out, leaving her little room to protest.

“Alright, I understand.

However, I’ll need to discuss it with Selah first and see if she’s interested.

I’ll get back to you later, is that okay?”

“Of course.

”

Once the call ended, Lindsey’s emotions were a whirlwind, swinging from one extreme to another.

Nonetheless, Lindsey had managed to tackle one issue.

Humming cheerfully, she quickly rang up Selah.

Selah picked up promptly, her laughter echoing at Lindsey’s evident joy.

Selah asked, “What’s going on, Linds? You sound so happy.

”

“I’ve just cleared up a major headache.

”

Lindsey filled Selah in on every detail before asking, “So, what do you think about being a judge?”

Selah responded cautiously, “Do you think I’m the right fit?”

Lindsey could sense Selah’s hesitation.

After all, with the company’s trainees featured in such a significant event, any misstep from Selah could stir controversy and thrust the company into the limelight for all the wrong reasons.

Having recently returned and faced with past public scrutiny, Selah was naturally cautious about re-entering such kind of thing.

Yet, the potential benefits were undeniable.

“Your recent projects have kept you out of the public eye.

Now that your latest film is complete, joining this show could boost your personal profile and simultaneously elevate the company’s image.

It’s a chance to promote your new film as well.

I believe the positives outweigh the negatives.

”

After a moment’s thought, Lindsey continued, “But still, the choice is yours.

”

“If it benefits the company, then I’m in,” Selah replied earnestly, “I’m aware we’ve been missing out on program invitations lately.

A chance like this doesn’t come often, and I want to contribute to your company’s success.

”

“Selah.

Lindsey was deeply moved.
