Chapter 582: Chapter 582: Can’t Beat Her
Tiffany Lynch frowned, also realising that something was wrong.
She put down the wine glass in her hand and picked up her mobile phone.
"Now that Jerry Cooper has been taken in for investigation, everyone knows that the ranking of the show was rigged. Even if others can get away with it, do you think you can escape? You were already the prime suspect, and now that something has happened, everyone will point their fingers at you. This is basically a nailed fact."
The agent herself hadn’t expected things to blow up this big this time.
It was quite common in the industry for talents show to be rigged. It was normal for a few debut members to be decided even before the program started airing. To ensure the interests of certain individuals, vote tampering was commonplace.
But this time...
Tiffany Lynch put down the phone, her hands shaking with anger. "What is this supposed to mean?"
The agent sighed heavily, "What else could it mean? Hannah Winter’s fans have been holding on to this vote swapping issue. The situation must have caused such a stir that caught the attention of the upper echelons. Now that someone has been taken away, it won’t be long before there’s an outcome."
Tiffany Lynch turned pale, clutching her chest with tightened fists. She tore open a slit on her dress but seemed oblivious to it, feeling a chill go over her entire body. "So what if there is an outcome? The band formation has already ended, and the list of the members is out. Do they really want to escalate the situation? No good can come out of it for them!"
"You need to understand that it is no longer about losing or gaining!" The agent also got heated, "Your private vote swapping has touched the bottom line of the audience. A hundred million votes, you just took them for yourself. This is not just secretly taking the back door, it’s more like you’re blatantly telling others you are. Do you think the audience is all fools?"
Tiffany Lynch scoffed, "If it wasn’t for your incompetence, I wouldn’t have to resort to such measures. You couldn’t even handle Hannah Winter."
The agent stood up and gazed at Tiffany Lynch for a while without saying a word, "Let me make this clear to you, Hannah Winter is not as easy as you think. You can’t beat her! Look for yourself, why is it that there was also a scandal in the previous season, and yet this time it’s causing such a big stir? Do you think this would be simple? Once this gets pulled in, how many interests will be involved? Unless someone in high position was putting pressure on it, who would dare to make such a big fuss?"
Tiffany Lynch froze, her temper flaring, "What am I supposed to do now that things have come to this? Apologise to Hannah Winter and beg her to let me off?"
Why should she give away the first place she earned by her own merit?
Apologise?
To Hannah Winter?
Is Winter even worth it!
The agent remained silent for a moment, hesitating before speaking up, "The situation has escalated to this point. The only thing you can be grateful for is that the specific list of those who rigged the vote hasn’t been released yet. But you should know that it’s only a matter of time, unless..."
At this, the agent sighed and shook her head, "Unless you go to Director River for help. He might have a solution. After all, if this gets unravelled, it’ll greatly impact Prideful Entertainment."
On the night of the band formation, George River had already made an appearance. If this ends up being a confirmed fact, it might affect George River personally and could even involve the company.
Although she was reluctant to keep seeking help from others, Tiffany Lynch knew that this was her only option now.
As long as the specific list has not been made public, no one will be able to hold onto this issue.
