Chapter 216

216 Banquet Invitation

“Mrs. Harris? Why didn’t you say so in the beginning? I think you’re feeling guilty!”

“There have been so many trending topics about her recently. She must be hyping it up!”

“I didn’t expect Mr. Xander’s casting to be so foul. No wonder she scored so high. I thought her singing was average from the beginning!”

The comments Sharon had just seen flashed through her mind. What’s going on? Why did public opinion become like this?

“Hey, don’t talk nonsense. Her backer is so strong, so how can we afford to offend her!?” The newcomer actress glanced at Sharon and mocked her. “After all, she’s from the Harris family. Everyone in New York knows how powerful the Harris family is. Her husband can destroy us in minutes with a snap of his fingers.”

Sharon glared at the person who spoke, her eyes cold. I’m performing well now because of the Harris family’s background. If my performance is bad, I’m not worthy of being RC’s model. Having a high score is because I had bribed the judges, while having a low score is because it was a script arranged by the production team!

“Sharon, are you okay?! You didn’t do those things, so the person they’re scolding isn’t you! I especially hate to eat mutton, but mutton won’t disappear because of this. Therefore, just ignore these people’s nonsense. Melinda will definitely explain herself after she takes a break.”

“But Sharon clearly didn’t do anything wrong, so why should she swallow her anger and accept other people’s slander and personal attacks?” Xenia said with some ill intentions. I’ve been looking forward to this moment for a long time. As long as Sharon blows this matter up, she will definitely get out of the casting selection.

“Of course, she doesn’t need to swallow her anger. It’s just that she has to be more rational in this situation. The video on the Internet has been taken out of context, and the articles are consistent. It’s obvious that someone bought the media to release these things. Even if she steps forward now, the misunderstanding can’t be explained clearly. No matter how angry or sad you are, Sharon, calm down first and discuss how to do crisis public relations with the production team.”

“Thank you... I won’t act rashly.”

“I heard that the production team has already called a few people to investigate, but some of them are still sitting here.”

Sharon didn’t say anything.

She didn’t expect Tommy to call suddenly, and she asked in a low voice, “What happened? It’s not convenient for me to go out now. If you can settle it, that’s good.”

“Huh? Yusuf invited you? Okay, I’ll be there. Don’t worry,” Sharon whispered. This is a serious matter, so I have to appear.

“Haha, are you going to be the host? I’m with the female lead of the incident now. We’ll be there in a while. Please eat first.” On the other side, Xenia’s voice sounded.

After hanging up the phone, she slowly said, “It’s our show’s investor, Mr. Danny, who invited me to dinner. He even specially instructed me to bring Sharon along. Otherwise, I’m afraid he might withdraw his investment.”

Xenia deliberately said this in front of everyone. Sure enough, someone criticized Sharon and forced her to meet the rumored Mr. Danny with Xenia immediately.

Without thinking, Sharon knew that Xenia must’ve added fuel to the fire and told the investors about the rumors online. However, she didn’t expect the latter to be so close to the investors.

It was a special period, and the production team couldn’t control their entry and exit.

Sharon didn’t expect that the hotel Xenia brought her to was the same as the one Tommy sent her info on.

“The gown is at the front desk; you can change into it first.” Sharon didn’t say much.

Xenia had already changed into the evening gown, but Sharon ignored her and went to the front desk.

When she came out of the washroom after changing, Xenia was obviously speechless. I wanted to embarrass her in front of the developer, but she came prepared.

“You prepared everything well. The gown is very beautiful.” Xenia praised her indifferently, but Sharon didn’t say anything.

At the entrance of the banquet hall, Sharon received news. Because of the traffic jam, Tommy might be late by half an hour, so he asked her to wait for a while.

Since I’m bored, I might as well go to the party. Sharon couldn’t understand what was wrong with these people. Because they are too free, they came to the party for no reason? Also, I don’t even know what’s going on with my news. These investors are probably here to denounce me, but I, myself, am confused.
