The story of Monroe's mishap on the plane had spread around the company, and now everyone knew about it. She had fallen asleep and rolled off the seat onto the floor, becoming a running joke.
Monroe, feeling embarrassed by the question, turned her head to look out the window.
After returning to Los Angeles, everyone went back to their own tasks. However, within a few days, rumors began circulating within the entertainnt company.
Monroe had slept with the big boss.
People often say that rumors spread faster than fire, Not only do rumors spread fast, but they spread far. Soon, everyone at HD Agency, HD Studios, and ABC Television knew about it.
When Monroe arrived at the TV station to participate in a new program, she noticed many people giving her strange looks.
What was going on?
Monroe was puzzled. Read the latest on empire
Monroe did have a friend, Shania Twain. They had been assigned to the sa room during a tour and quickly bonded over their frank personalities, becoming friends.
Monroe pulled Shania into an empty dressing room. "Shania, can you tell why everyone is looking at so strangely today?"
Shania looked at Monroe and laughed. "There are rumors about you all over the production team. I guess so people are curious, and so are just jealous."
"What rumors?" Monroe asked.
Shania looked at Monroe, leaned in, and whispered mysteriously, "Monroe, is the big boss good in bed?"
Monroe froze.
Shania burst into laughter. "Judging by your reaction, I'd say the rumors are true. Everyone is saying that you slept with the big boss in Miami. That's why people are giving you those looks."
Shania's tone was playful.
Monroe finally understood the reason. She could guess that it was likely the girl who had shared the room with her that night who spread the rumor, as she was the only one who knew Monroe returned late.
She wanted to explain that she didn't actually sleep with the boss,
But... But she had only been touched by him.
Would explaining help? Who would believe her? Who would want to believe her? People love gossip, and if there's no story, they'll make one up.
Besides, she had returned late.
Even though nothing really happened,
She had still slept there.
Monroe had risen to fa through her sex appeal, but her skills couldn't compare to the other contestants. She had been relying on sensual performances to win every competition, and many people were aware of this.
As a result, many people already harbored resentnt toward her.
Monroe and Shania returned to the recording hall, where many contestants had gathered. Monroe noticed that everyone was looking at her with a different kind of gaze.
But one thing was strange.
She noticed that the staff and managent at the TV station were treating her with more respect than ever.
In the past, they treated her like any other contestant.
They would call out to her loudly when it was her turn, and if she made a mistake, they would scold her. If there were no chairs during breaks, she had to stand.
But today, the staff was polite when calling her. When she made a mistake, the director didn't scold her but patiently explained the scene. During a break, when she found no chairs, the staff imdiately brought her a new one.
Monroe wasn't stupid.
She knew the change in attitude was because of the big boss.
Suddenly, she felt an odd sensation.
Even though she wasn't yet officially his woman, she was already enjoying the perks of being one.
The TV station staff and contestants viewed Monroe's situation very differently. The contestants might think she was using her looks to steal their opportunities, but the staff had only one thought: she was the boss's woman, and they must not offend her.
Just look at the boss's won.
Miss Ava, whom the big boss personally grood, was now one of the top stars and singers in Hollywood.
Miss Irina, the assistant to the chairman of ABC Television, was practically a vice president and the host of the TV station's most popular show, "Irina Tonight Show." Word had it that she had only recently graduated from college.
It wasn't that they were extraordinarily talented. Hollywood was full of won more talented and beautiful than them, so why did they have their current status? Because they had soone behind them—a strong pillar of support.
It was that simple.
Monroe had slept with the boss, so no one dared offend her. They were more than willing to treat her well.
As for the idea of the big boss sleeping with the contestants, wasn't that exactly what people expected? If he didn't, that would be the strange part.
So the staff's attitude was in stark contrast to the contestants. One side was distancing themselves, while the other was eager to please.
The show began recording.
The entire process would take a few days.
Ava, as one of the ntors, sat in the ntor's chair on stage.
After the previous contestant finished singing and received an above-average score, it was Monroe's turn. Many people suddenly perked up, waiting for drama to unfold.
Everyone knew that Ava was the big boss's woman, and now this little fox, Monroe, was stepping up. People were curious to see how Ava would handle the situation.
Monroe sang a new song.
It was still her signature sensual style. Despite the long training, her vocal skills were still diocre, and her tone was quite ordinary.
Monroe's talent points were all invested in her sex appeal.
She had made it to the top 24 solely because of the company's support. Monroe was the most popular contestant, as proven during performances. Whenever Monroe appeared, the audience's cheers grew louder and louder.
Ava smiled as she watched Monroe finish singing. She picked up the microphone and was the first to comnt. "That was very good. You perford this song well, capturing the lazy, seductive, and tender emotions perfectly. This style suits you. I give you 9.5 points."
