@ZacTurnery. The best contract in the industry? Isn’t Titus afraid of being exposed by his sister? Well, let me reveal the truth. The contract I’m about to share is the one our company gave to Simone. Everyone can compare.
He then uploaded the contract, blurring out the sensitive information. Of course, Felix had given his consent for this, but he didn’t expect Simone to go this far and confront them directly on Facebook.
When Zac wanted to help Simone by openly sharing the contract, he didn’t object because he enjoyed seeing the Gray Family brothers being embarrassed. Also, he despised the Gray Family brothers for their arrogance. Hence, he looked forward to seeing their infuriated expressions when they found out that Simone had started her own studio and even poached the talents from Gray Entertainment
Upon seeing Zac’s Facebook post, Titus knew that their previous public relations efforts had been in vain, and they were once again being embarrassed. He was already furious with Simone, and now, Zac was adding fuel to the fire, making him extremely displeased.
Looking at Reuben, he asked, “Zac Turner is too arrogant. Shouldn’t we teach him a lesson?”
After thinking for a moment, Reuben shook his head and replied, “We can’t touch him for now.”
Titus furrowed his brows and asked, “Why? Star Entertainment has already crossed the line.”
Reuben explained, “Zac Turner’s arrogance isn’t built on Star Entertainment, but on the power behind him, the Turner Family. If we go after him, we might anger the Turner Family, and that would be troublesome. Besides, he’s not an easy opponent because he has a wide network in the industry, and his fans are both rational and crazy. Anyone who messes with him will be in deep trouble.”
Gritting his teeth, Titus asked, “So, we just have to bear with this? Previously, he put Aaron down and bullied Jo, and now he’s helping Simone to embarrass us. Are we just going to let him get away with it? I can’t take this lying down.”
Reuben, however, remained calm. “Even if we can’t, we have to because we can’t provoke the Turner Family. Zac is the most beloved grandson of Old Mr. Turner and the youngest son of their family. He’s highly favored while we’re just businessmen and can’t confront his family head–on. In this industry, even Felix doesn’t dare to offend major investors publicly, but Zac does. He publicly embarrassed an investor who liked to engage in shady practices last time, and that person didn’t even dare to retaliate. That’s the confidence Zac Turner has, and the contract given to Simone was not initiated by Star Entertainment’s top management.”
They had certain rules in their industry. Even if Felix wanted to support Simone in going against them and saw the potential in her, it was impossible to offer Simone the contract of the top star in Star Entertainment or even more freedom.
“Star Entertainment had considered Zac Turner’s connections before offering this contract.” He stood up and patted Titus‘ shoulder. “So, you have to swallow your pride. In the future, once there is a chance, we’ll take revenge on Zac Turner in the dark and make up for it, but not now.”
He was also angry at Zac’s arrogance and the way he humiliated them, but if he couldn’t anger the

Chapter 87 They Underestimated Her Before
Once again, Leon and Jodie were mentioned and berated, reigniting the heated discussion that had just subsided.
Jodie, feeling that she was deceived by Simone once again and being criticized by so many, was filled with anger and on the verge of losing her mind. Seated in the living room, she cried out of frustration. She aspired to gain popularity in the entertainment industry, but not through negative means.
Seeing this, the three Gray brothers, including Luca, couldn’t help but console her again. However, they were being watched by the female housekeeper, so they refrained from embracing and comforting her.
Aaron pondered for a moment and suggested, “What if we don’t participate in the next variety show?”
Being treated coldly and ridiculed by his own sister on a variety show was uncomfortable. In truth, he wasn’t particularly enthusiastic about continuing to participate in the next season, and now that Jodie was being criticized, he thought that it would be better to withdraw,
As soon as this suggestion was made, Jodie immediately opposed it, saying, “No, I won’t quit.” If she were to quit like this, wouldn’t it imply that she was afraid of Simone? She had already devised a plan to change her image and win the audience’s favor in the next season.
Most importantly, her dream indicated that this variety show would become increasingly popular. Otherwise, why would she go to such lengths to participate when she couldn’t take Simone’s spot? Aside from wanting to compete with Simone and bring her down, it was because of the hints in her dream. That was why she desired to be on this variety show and gain popularity from it. How could she give up now? No, she couldn’t accept it.
