Chapter 476: Chapter 476
In fact, the private lives of those in the entertainment circle have always been a mess, well-known to everyone, but everyone was always especially protective of Chen Wanru. During the celebration banquet at ES, under the lockdown of Imperial Palace, such a big incident occurred, and naturally, ES wouldn’t just let it go.
Moreover, everyone wasn’t unaware of the contributions Chen Wanru made to ES.
So, after the meeting was convened, there was an urgent investigation. However, the investigation revealed that the photos were sent from an internet cafe without any record of real-name registration.
Just when everyone thought they had hit a dead end, they suddenly received a phone call. The Vice President of ES answered it, but it was Wang Chao on the other end, "This is really unexpected. Wanru has been a friend of mine for many years. We all had a drink together yesterday, and Wanru said she felt uncomfortable. I didn’t think much of it and just helped her up to her room. It wasn’t until we entered the elevator that I realized someone had drugged her, which led to that situation."
"Drugged?" The Vice President of ES frowned upon hearing this, "Do you know who did it?" Latest content published on NoveIFire.net
"When Wanru came to greet me, she was perfectly fine. It was only after she drank the glass of wine handed to her by Jian Chenxi that she started to feel unwell."
Hearing this, the Vice President of ES’s expression darkened, and he hung up the phone. He lifted his head and said, "We know who it is." Before he could say the name, the phone rang again. The Vice President of ES answered, and a crying female voice came through, intermittently saying a lot, "I didn’t mean to do this, it was Jian Chenxi who forced me to do this, I didn’t mean to frame Sister Chen..."
Enraged, the Vice President of ES threw the phone to the ground and shouted with a flushed face and thick neck, "How preposterous! Does Jian Chenxi no longer want to live? How could she stir up such an absurd mess! For the sake of climbing to the top in the music industry, treachery is overlooked, but to dare to deal with Chen Wanru herself!"
"What should we do next, Vice President?" someone asked.
"What to do? Immediately call a press conference. Before the jury comes with a decision, quickly clarify that this was a setup by someone with ulterior motives!" shouted the Vice President of ES, breaking into an infuriated rant.
While he was giving orders, the phone rang again. He bowed his head, took a look, and his face tensed up. He slightly raised his hand, signaling everyone to be quiet, and then answered. As he listened, his expression turned extremely grim.
After a long while, the Vice President of ES hung up the phone, his gaze somber.
"What’s the matter? Vice President?"
A bold person dared to ask.
Coming back to his senses, the Vice President spoke in a defeated tone, "It’s too late. The jury has already given their decision, disqualifying Chen Wanru from this year’s candidacy and Wang Chao has been kicked out of the jury as well. Moreover, the results have already been communicated to the media, and it’s impossible to change now."
The people in the conference room erupted into uproar upon hearing this.
Did Chen Wanru just miss her chance with the once-a-year music competition event?
"But that’s too unjust for Sister Chen, she didn’t do anything!"
"Yes... We all see the contributions Wanru made for ES, doesn’t this mean her reputation is utterly destroyed?"
