Under normal circumstances, most people, in order to maintain appearances, would say "no blame".
Holly Houston once thought July Quinn would say just that.
In this way, she could easily shirk off responsibility.
Unexpectedly, July Quinn’s clear eyes met hers in the mirror and she smiled charmingly, "Blame."
This... is a bit unconventional!
But at least in recent times, Holly Houston had gradually learned the art of perfunctory social interactions, so she quickly regained her composure.
"It’s only right that you blame me. But there’s nothing I can do, you know the show needs discussion points, so generally variety shows are scripted."
"Are you trying to tell me that you all teamed up to deliberately give me low scores as part of a scripted plan?"
July Quinn’s expression didn’t change, but her beauty still felt like a sharp blade at Holly Houston’s neck, making her extremely frustrated.
But what they needed to discuss involved various interests, so Holly Houston had to temporarily overlook this.
"Yes, that’s indeed the case. Also, it was included in the previous agreement, you can’t disclose it."
With prior experience of being threatened by hackers, before approaching July Quinn, Holly Houston had ensured the backstage surveillance was off. Follow current novels on Nove1Fire.net
As for July Quinn’s phone, Holly hadn’t seen her use it since entering the backstage and it couldn’t have recorded anything.
This way, some interested parties wouldn’t be able to exploit this.
"I don’t plan to disclose it for the time being." July responded to her.
Holly Houston was somewhat surprised.
She didn’t expect July Quinn to be so easy to talk to today.
After all, before meeting with July, she was prepared to threaten her with the high breach penalty mentioned in the agreement.
Perhaps this unexpectedness made Holly Houston overlook the "for the time being" in July’s words.
"That’s good. You’re requesting leave today, right? I’ll approve it for you now."
Since the conversation went surprisingly smoothly, Holly Houston quickly approved the leave.
In no time, July Quinn left the program group and returned to Wisteria TV.
To July Quinn’s surprise, Vivian Lynn was still at the company.
"Mr. Lynn, why are you working today?"
Due to the previous incident of checking Vivian Lynn’s pulse, July knew she was already pregnant.
"There’s nothing to do at home, I keep overthinking."
At this, Vivian Lynn lowered her voice, "July, I have good news, I’m pregnant."
When Vivian Lynn said this, her eyes were full of gentle light, and she gently placed her hand on her still-flat stomach.
It was clear she was very much looking forward to the arrival of the new life.
"Congratulations, that’s wonderful news."
After offering her congratulations, July asked, "So, the wedding preparations should be expedited."
But when this was mentioned, Vivian Lynn’s expression instantly dimmed.
"Stephen Stone’s mother said, given my condition, I’m not fit for such tiring things. So they decided not to hold a wedding for now, so as not to waste money, and to just register first."
Every woman, to some extent, fantasizes about her wedding.
Vivian Lynn was no exception.
"It’s just a bit of money, it doesn’t seem like much."
If they don’t invite Vivian Lynn’s colleagues, and just keep it to family, it’s just a small cost.
Compared to Vivian Lynn’s current income, this is just a drop in the ocean.
But the Stone Family isn’t willing to spend even this much?
Isn’t this a bit dismissive of Vivian Lynn?
"I don’t know what to say."
"What does your boyfriend think?"
"He thinks it’s best to listen to his mom."
This marriage for Vivian Lynn was already a step down.
Logically, the Stone Family should be treating Vivian Lynn like a queen.
July Quinn felt something was off.
