Chapter 678 Phoebe Takes Wesley to Audition

Phoebe plopped down at her desk, but before she could even get comfy, the door swung open. She looked up, eyebrows furrowed, to see Lori rushing in.

"Ms. Ziegler, Diego's role went to Finnegan from Queen Entertainment. Wesley didn't make it," Lori blurted out, clearly anxious.

"Take a breath, Lori," Phoebe said, trying to calm her down.

Since it was an audition, it was a fair competition, so even if Finnegan won, they should accept their loss.

"Alfonso said Wesley nailed his audition, and Hank was really impressed. But somehow, they still picked Finnegan," Lori added.

Phoebe pressed her lips together. This kind of stuff happened all the time in showbiz. People would do anything to get ahead. If the straight path didn't work, they'd find a crooked one. "Lori, tell Wesley to hang in there. Patience pays off," Phoebe said.

Lori seemed to relax a bit. "I'm sorry, Ms. Ziegler. I got a little carried away."

"It's okay," Phoebe said, pausing for a moment. "But remember, in this industry, whether you're an artist or behind the scenes, you need to stay steady. Don't let it get to you." "Got it," Lori nodded.

Phoebe sighed. "Find out how Queen Entertainment snagged that role."

If they lost, they needed to know why.

Lori's eyes lit up. "Yes."

Phoebe would just let it slide, but it turned out Phoebe still had
