Forbidden Passion

Chapter 660 Theodore Encounterd Hubert

After hanging up, Vanessa shot a look at the finance head and said, "Ernest is toast. Go figure out how much he owes for breaching the contract."

"Vanessa," Madison was shocked at how quickly Vanessa was ditching Ernest. She still had some hope, "We spent two years building him up. Are we really just gonna drop him like that?" Vanessa snapped, "If we don't, you want the whole Queen Entertainment to sink with him? What are you all standing around for? Go minimize the damage!"

The crew exchanged glances and bolted out of the room.

The office door clicked shut, leaving just Vanessa and Madison.

Madison had grown up a lot in the past two years.

She looked at Vanessa's back and asked, "Who's so hell-bent on taking Ernest down? They're really pushing him out of the industry."

"I told you from the start, Ernest lacked integrity. But you didn't listen. You threw all our resources at him, and now look, he's been caught red-handed." Vanessa was fuming. Queen Entertainment didn't have many stars, and with Ernest out, she needed a new male lead, fast.

Madison clenched her fists, "Ernest has that clean, handsome look girls love these days. That's why I pushed him so hard. If I find out who ruined him, they're gonna pay." Vanessa shot her a cold look, "You really don't know who's targeting him?"

Madison was taken aback.

Vanessa sneered, "You've been stirring up drama with Noah lately. It's not impossible someone from Superstar Entertainment decided to strike back." "Phoebe?" Madison, being in the biz, knew all the latest gossip. Phoebe had made a big splash coming back to Kedora.

Recently, Madison had been aggressively marketing with Noah to get under Phoebe's skin.

"She just got back. Does she have the clout to cause such a mess?" Madison hadn't suspected Phoebe because she was known to be pretty straight-laced. Phoebe wouldn't stoop to collecting dirt on her rivals and then blindsiding them.
