Chapter 351: Chapter 351
"I... I was in the dressing room today."
"In the dressing room... I saw a lot of the products I endorse, it made me really happy."
Quinn Lockwood hesitated, wanting to talk to Elias Sinclair about the troubling thing she encountered today, but she swallowed her words several times and eventually didn’t say it.
"Hmm, I saw your endorsement on the electronic screen of the building here too, it looks great."
"What’s the name of your program this time? I’ll make sure to watch it later." The man, dressed in a crisp suit, looked out at the bustling and brightly lit street, exuding a tenderness that could almost seep out like water.
Quinn Lockwood was suddenly taken aback, she doubted if she had heard wrong!
Elias Sinclair actually wanted to watch her program and praised her advertisement for looking great!
Moreover, the tone and attitude he used on the phone with her tonight were unprecedentedly gentle and clear.
Though they were talking over the phone, Quinn Lockwood’s face still turned red.
She pursed her lips, just about to tell Elias Sinclair the name of the program, when a sweet and respectful female voice interrupted her from the other side.
"Sir, from the partner’s side..."
But before that voice finished speaking, Elias Sinclair’s voice came through again: "I have something to take care of here, you should rest early, I’ll call you again tomorrow."
"Good night, hanging up now."
After Elias Sinclair hung up, his demeanor suddenly turned cold, showing no trace of tenderness.
"Who allowed you to come in without knocking?" The man’s eyes were icy with a hint of intimidation, clearly dissatisfied with Joyce Kramer’s behavior.
Joyce Kramer was startled by the drastic change in Elias Sinclair’s attitude.
Just a moment ago... he wasn’t this serious and cold.
"Sir, didn’t you say that I could come and go freely... in your office?" Joyce Kramer looked at Elias Sinclair, her face showing an indescribably complex expression.
"Not anymore." Elias Sinclair put his hand in his pocket, turned slightly, his expression becoming solemn and stern.
"From now on, no matter what it is, you must knock before coming to see me." After saying this with a gloomy face, the man didn’t even glance at Joyce Kramer and walked straight out of the office with his long strides.
Joyce Kramer’s face instantly changed after hearing Elias Sinclair’s words, feeling simply incredulous.
She clearly had privileges with him.
He had never treated her this way before, he had never required her to follow these clear superior-subordinate rules.
Why? Why has it become !
Joyce Kramer turned to look in the direction Elias Sinclair left, her hands clenched into fists. Get full chapters from novᴇlfire.net
It’s all because of her!
If it weren’t for her, how could he have become increasingly indifferent to me?
If it weren’t for her, maybe I would be Mrs. Sinclair by now!
Thinking about the times Quinn Lockwood paraded in front of her like a victor, Joyce Kramer gritted her teeth in hatred.
Joyce Kramer’s gaze lingered harshly in one direction for a long time, as if looking straight at Quinn Lockwood.
"Is everything set?" Joyce Kramer pulled out her phone, quickly typed these words, and sent them to an unknown number.
Shortly after the message was sent, she received a reply: "Don’t worry, just wait for the show tomorrow."
Seeing the words on the text message, the frown on Joyce Kramer’s face eased, a glint of an undefined emotion flashed in her eyes.
Bitch, I won’t let you continue being smug.
Joyce Kramer’s mood seemed to have improved a lot; she slightly curled her lips into a smug smile, then deleted the message and put her phone back in her pocket.
Early the next morning, Quinn Lockwood was again woken up by the ringing of her phone.
Could it be that the organizer changed the schedule at the last minute again?
Quinn Lockwood irritably rolled over to pick up her phone, finding that the caller was Xenia Monroe.
"What’s up Sierra? Calling me so early?" Quinn Lockwood felt a bit strange; it wasn’t even seven o’clock yet, and Xenia Monroe should be asleep like her.
"I’m already calling late! Hurry and check X, you’re trending again, number one, and it’s blowing up!"
"What’s going on, how did it turn out !" Xenia Monroe was a bit anxious, looking at the trending title and the accompanying photos, unable to sit still.
Quinn Lockwood was a bit bewildered by Xenia Monroe’s words.
She knew she was trending, wasn’t it because of last night’s Sunset Dance?
This was obviously a good thing; she secured the top place in the competition, got a chance for dance training, and gained quite a lot of fans in the process.
But judging from Xenia Monroe’s tone, Quinn Lockwood felt that things might not be as simple as that.
Quinn Lockwood hurriedly got out of bed and logged into X.
Savannah Lowell’s successful seduction to climb ranks.
Quinn Lockwood stared at the red title holding the first place, her eyes narrowing into a frown.
She quickly clicked the title and discovered a post with millions of likes and hundreds of thousands of comments, featuring photos and a story.
"Breaking: ’Who is the Dance King’ show, cracking under the pressure of Savannah Lowell’s prowess, faked results throughout, and Savannah herself resorted to seduction and bribery to win first place..."
Attached were several ambiguous photos of Quinn Lockwood with the judge from yesterday in the dimly lit dressing room.
Due to the dim lighting and shooting angle in the dressing room, the photos of Quinn Lockwood struggling in the chair looked eerily like she was indulging in romance.
The latter part of the text even included ’intimate’ photos of Quinn Lockwood with Dylan Quinn, Mikael, Cameron Grant, Chester Thornton, and others.
All were carefully selected photos taken from specific angles and under dim lighting.
Even the scene shot with Mikael’s kissing angle was described as an added request from the director.
The article even accused that the female lead role in Quentin Woods’s movie was secured by Quinn Lockwood using improper means.
The comments below were uniformly criticizing Quinn Lockwood, even more than half of ’The Sunsets’ expressed their disappointment in Quinn and decided to unfan her.
The comments from bystanders were even harsher, leaving extremely unpleasant messages on Quinn Lockwood’s social media.
"Shameless woman, disgusting."
"Too bold, can’t believe she’s doing this anywhere... forget it, it’s too disgusting."
The comments were mostly targeting the allegation that Quinn Lockwood used her body to win the first place in the competition.
The show ’Who is the Dance King’ had been hugely popular with audiences since it aired, even attracting many domestic and international dance enthusiasts, and its fame had reached overseas.
