The Ex and Her Riches

Chapter 118 Stand Up For Her

15 Bonus

Gwendolyn had been feeling troubled and upset these past few days, and now Sylvia only added to her problems.

Sylvia was dragged out while she was crying.

The room finally quieted down. Gwendolyn sat beside Jennifer’s bed, carefully peeling an apple for her.

Jennifer stared at her intently and smiled with relief. “It’s been so many years since we last met, and you’ve changed so much. You’re very determined in handling things now. I really like that.”

“You can actually do it too.”

Jennifer’s eyes darkened. “No. I’m not the same. I’m different from all the other trainees here. Behind them are either companies or wealthy families, but I only have myself.”

Gwendolyn put down the apple and held her hand. “You managed to stand out from a hundred trainees all by yourself and made it to the finals step by step. Don’t you think you’re amazing?”

“But I’m only ranked fifteenth. I can’t debut. Sylvia told me that the debut slots have already been filled by major companies through under-the-table deals. I don’t stand a chance.”

Gwendolyn burst into laughter.

That was her company, and she organized the event. She had specifically instructed her staff not to accept any bribes or reserve spots. No one would know better than her.

Jennifer was not bad-looking. Although she was not bedazzling at first glance, she was always pleasing to the eyes.

She was a lovely and innocent girl.

With such a look and talent, Jennifer had the potential to go a long way in the entertainment industry.

Regardless of whether it was for the sake of friendship or the company’s interests, she decided to support Jennifer wholeheartedly.

“Don’t worry. There will never be any predetermined outcomes in my show. As long as you work hard, you’ll have a chance. Moreover, even if you don’t successfully debut this time, I’ll make sure you sign with Angle Corporation as an S-level artist.”

Jennifer’s eyes glistened with tears.

She bit her lip in disbelief and held her tears from rolling down her cheeks.

Gwendolyn gently patted her head. “This time, go all out and strive toward your goal with everything you’ve got.”
