GoodReadChapter 382 In the talent agent's office, Craig leaned against his desk, eyeing the disheveled Summer sprawled on the couch with a mix of frustration and annoyance.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe had thought he'd signed a grounded, sensible artist, but in less than a year, she'd cooked up a scandal so big it was enough to give anyone Indigestion.
One was supposed to have a few good years under their belt before going off the rails, for heaven's sake. And what did Summer do instead? She tried to stir up trouble with her supposed superstar brother. Oh wait, Juztin wasn’t even her real brother! The thought made Craig’s mood sour further. If she wasn't related to Juztin, she shouldn't have led him on, making him believe that they were siblings. No wonder Juztin didn’t bring her along on that reality show. If it wasn't for this mess, Craig would still be in the dark.
Appearances really are deceiving! If she'd put half this effort into her career, she might've had more than two million fans by now. But no, now she beca pariah on the internet.
Craig rubbed his face, sighing as he broke the silence in the room. “Look, sitting here isn’t doing you any good.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI've done what I can, but | can’t bury this. Juztin isn’t srun-of-the-mill pop singer. What were you thinking, taking him on?” Summer pressed her lips together, her fingers tightly intertwined in her lap. If Leo hadn't been so ruthless, would she have ever made such a rash decision? Mirabella was st a nobody from the sticks, and Leo had flaunted her on that reality show, making Summer look like a fool.
After watching Mirabella get showered with praise episode after episode and seeing Leo’s preferential treatment of her, Summer's jealousy had grown like a weed.
Why should a country bumpkin like Mirabella get all the admiration while the Davis family dropped all pretenses of poverty to court her favor? If only the Davis family had treated Summer fairly, she wouldn't have been driven to such desperate actions.
Summer's throat felt parched with regret. She knew that her current predicament was due to her own shortsightedness, her impatience, and her inability to stay cool. She wouldn't. make the sfoolish mistake again if she had another chance.
Craig, unaware of her turmoil, felt obligated to help since she was his client after all. “You might not be Juztin’s real sister, but you've spent over a decade with him. Go and plead with him. If he’s willing to let bygones be bygones and gives a clarifying statement, you. might just salvage your career. In times like these, you've got to play the family card. It's your only shot, or you can kiss your singing career goodbye.” 11:19 Chapter 382 “My reputation is already so tainted. Is there really a chance for a comeback?” Summer asked with a bitter chuckle.
Craig glanced at her. “As long as Juztin doesn’t pursue this issue, there's a chance.” That was just how the entertainment industry was. Every day, there was a new scandal, and with time, things got diluted. Who remembered the past when the next big story hit? Summer looked up. “You don’t know my brother. He's cold to the core. Getting him to clear my nis next to impossible.” Craig lifted the corner of his mouth in a half-smile. “Difficult or not, you've got to try. Unless you're done with the limelight.” After a brief pause, as if a new thought struck him, Craig added, “Or maybe you should appeal to your adoptive parents? Surely, they'd step in to help, right?” At that, Summer hesitated, her response lingering in the air. Craig, now curious at her silence, asked, “Don’t tellyou're on bad terms with them too?”
