“Lying? Who?” Rachel asked.
Wynter put the strand of hair away safely. “Just do the things you’ve been told to do. Perhaps you could still keep your job. Don’t touch Rowan in the future. I’ll talk to him about his contract.”
“You could get Rowan to sign with us?” Rachel’s eyes sparkled like never before. “He has never signed with any company all these years. He always works alone.”
“Just wait for my update.” Wynter said calmly, “Also, change this bad habit of yours.
“I’ll let you go this time because you have never once sent anybody to Jordan Whittle. You only gave him money. The rest is all up to your performance. But remember, don’t exploit anyone for fame anymore.”
Others might not have understood what Wynter meant, but Rachel knew all too well. To outsiders, she was always a clean businesswoman. Yes, she did not cherish her artists that much.
She always tried to find ways to get them out of the industry, exploit other people for fame, or gain attention through scandals and embarrassment.
One thing she always did was downing half a bottle of liquor every time she was at Jordan’s social events. That was because she did not want her artists to be ravaged.
Of course, some did it willingly, but Rachel could never allow herself to let Jordan abuse her artists.
The entire industry relied on connections and bootlicking. That was why good things were rare, and those who stood firm on their boundaries got lesser and lesser.
Rachel did not mind if someone was vying for her money or did superstitious things. She did not even mind doing legally gray things. But she truly did, not want to destroy a young artist by getting them to sleep with others.
Rachel initially thought that no one would understand this about her. After all, she never had a good reputation. In fact, the things that she did seemed evil from the perspective of an ordinary person.
She really had too many artists under her. Whether from a business point of view or a personal perspective, she did not hope that they would end up being forgotten. After all, being ignored was worse than being yelled at.
Rachel looked around the familiar room. Tanya must have already forgotten that she really wanted to make her famous, not through superstitions, but through her own capabilities.
It was too bad that they could never return to the past.
Rachel lowered her head and chuckled. She never expected that in her 50s, because of something a young lady said, she had the renewed urge to become the best manager.
If she could really sign Rowan to their company, she was going to try it!
Wynter left. She initially only thought of protecting Rowan. Besides, she had seen Rachel’s resume before. She was not that evil of a person. Wynter never expected that she could get Rachel wholly on her side.

The moment she got on her scooter, a call came from Ryan Llyod.
“M- Ms. Quinnell! They said they found key evidence! They are going to convict Mr. Rowan. What should we do?” It sounded very chaotic on Ryan’s end.
Wynter’s gaze darkened. “This isn’t logical. Without a trial, no one can convict Rowan. Are the police
going to release the results of the
תח
investigation?”
”
“Crime specialist? Who is it?”
“Someone called Michael Ch-Chen-no…”
Wynter’s tone was calm. “Michael Chenoweth.”
“Yes.” Ryan asked, “You know him?”
Wynter responded, “Hmm. If he’s near you, could you pass the phone to him?
