Considering Sylvia Lawson is a star with a sexy and alluring image, most of her fans are homebodies. If this issue were to explode, Sylvia Lawson wouldn’t be able to make a stand in the entertainment circle.
Unfortunately, she could only gather some superficial evidence through her own efforts.
Early the next morning, Quinn Lockwood went to several hotels to ask if someone named Sylvia Lawson had ever been there, but due to the hotels’ privacy policies, the whole day was basically a waste.
Ariana Lynch, while checking reports at several hotels under The Lockwood Group, overheard an employee mentioning this matter. After thinking for a moment, she called Sylvia Lawson.
"Sylvia, I’m not trying to scare you, but Savannah Lowell is stuck on you like a bulldog. If she really finds anything, you’re finished." Ariana Lynch stood by the window, watching the traffic below the company, with a slight smirk on her lips.
"Besides, with Savannah Lowell’s nature, even without evidence, she’ll fabricate something. Silly girl, if she doesn’t leave the entertainment circle, it will be you who has to leave." Tapping lightly on the floor-to-ceiling window, Ariana Lynch’s eyes gleamed with an indescribable glint.
After hanging up the phone, Sylvia Lawson’s heart continued to pound incessantly. Taking two deep breaths, her normally arrogant and domineering face became even more contorted.
Because Sylvia Lawson is not only young and beautiful, but always acts sweet and docile like a lamb in front of others, and her speech is honeyed, she has good relationships with many directors.
She made contact with a director she frequently collaborated with and arranged to dine at a high-end restaurant, under the pretext of introducing a talented, beautiful, and sexy actress to him.
This director had heard of Quinn Lockwood’s reputation, and since her popularity soared with the grand dance and reality show, he was increasingly interested in her.
"Director Chandler, rest assured, Savannah will definitely not disappoint you. There are now enough people wanting to sign with her to circle our company. You’ve got to act quickly." She gently caressed the director’s chest with her hand, making him feel itchy inside.
"Alright, alright, I’ll contact her as soon as I get back." Director Chandler patted Sylvia Lawson’s hand, smiling foolishly.
Disgust flashed in Sylvia Lawson’s eyes, but she retrieved her hand seamlessly and gave the director a sweet smile: "Then please, Director Chandler, take good care of Savannah."
After toasting the director with several glasses of wine, Sylvia Lawson smacked her lips lightly, her mouth unconsciously curling upwards.
The next day, Anna informed Quinn Lockwood that a well-known director wanted to invite her to play the lead actress in his new drama. Beforehand, he hoped to dine with her to facilitate future collaboration.
Quinn Lockwood asked about the type of drama and agreed without much thought.
Since the lead role was handed to her on a platter, she certainly wouldn’t refuse.
That evening, Quinn Lockwood arrived at the appointment on time.
"Hello, Director Chandler, I’m Savannah Lowell." As soon as she entered the hotel and saw the director, Quinn Lockwood gracefully bowed, smiling politely.
Director Chandler looked up, and upon seeing Quinn Lockwood’s stunning and delicate face, almost dropped his eyes.
"Come, sit down, sit down, you really seem like the perfect choice for my leading lady." The director chivalrously pulled out a chair for Quinn Lockwood, and his hand lightly brushed her shoulder in passing, though he didn’t linger.
After ordering a few dishes, Quinn Lockwood began asking about the script.
Director Chandler placed the script outline on the table but didn’t hand it to Quinn Lockwood, instead signaling her with a sidelong glance to come over and take it herself.
Quinn Lockwood knew these big-name directors were arrogant and liked to make things difficult for actors. She slightly lowered her eyes and then got up to take the script.
"This drama is quite challenging." Said the director, moving the script further inside on purpose as Quinn Lockwood reached for it, pressing his hand on hers, and his other hand patted her back reassuringly.
"But don’t worry, I felt a connection with you at first sight, this role is undoubtedly meant for you." His rough palm caressed Quinn Lockwood’s hand, his smile growing increasingly lewd.
Quinn Lockwood’s eyes turned cold as she withdrew her hand and lightly brushed it off.
"We can discuss the role another time; I just remembered I have something at the company. Please excuse me." With that, Quinn Lockwood picked up her bag and left without looking back.
The director spat viciously in the direction of the door, his expression quite displeased: "Ungrateful."
At this moment, a person in a black baseball cap sitting in the corner put away a camera, looked around, lowered the brim, and quietly left.
By the next morning, the entrance of Quinn Lockwood’s company was swarmed by journalists from various publications, and the internet was filled with news about Quinn Lockwood being taken advantage of by a director.
Even the past incidents where she supposedly clung to Elias Sinclair and had late-night meetings with other directors were being dug up again.
Those who always disliked Quinn Lockwood, along with some Dylan Quinn fans, stormed the company, demanding that her agency immediately blacklist her so that she wouldn’t disgust people any longer. This update ıs available on novel•fire.net
Advertisers and production teams who had signed contracts with Quinn Lockwood all called her questioning the situation, with many demanding immediate contract termination.
The agency hastily convened an emergency meeting to discuss how to handle Quinn Lockwood’s current crisis.
"Oh dear, this is quite difficult to handle. The more you clarify something , the less likely netizens are to believe it. Even if it’s temporarily resolved, no one is likely to buy it when Savannah shows up in public again."
Sylvia Lawson pouted as if genuinely feeling sorry for Quinn Lockwood, then sighed deeply as if she were helpless.
The company’s directors and managers discussed amongst themselves and decided to have Quinn Lockwood lay low for a while, waiting for the storm to pass before making plans for her.
In fact, the company intended to seize this opportunity, hoping Savannah Lowell might even gain fame through this. Even if she didn’t, they felt no need to muddy their waters, because in the chaotic entertainment world, anything can happen, and Savannah Lowell was just unlucky, caught in such a scandal. This might spell her doom.
Quinn Lockwood felt a surge of anger as she listened to them.
It’s a bunch of profit-driven scoundrels!
Despite being with the company for so long, they had never really resolved any difficulty for her and always took advantage of the situation.
However, given her current situation, she couldn’t fight against them. After hesitating for a moment, Quinn Lockwood decided to lean on her brother for support.
