Loving Mom 286

Chapter 286

The Hendricks family held considerable sway in the entertainment industry, so much so that they practically owned half of it. It had been their foundation, the very thing that built their empire from the ground up.

Nate had no particular talent in most areas, but when it came to entertainment, his word still carried weight. Silencing someone like Sharon–a newcomer–was nothing to him. Even banning a top-tier celebrity would take little more than a single

command.

So when the person on the other end of the call heard Nate’s order, they froze.

“Ban her? You’re saying you want Sharon blacklisted?”

The person had done their homework-asking around, digging into the origin of Sharon’s sudden popularity. The initial video had, after all, been uploaded from Nate’s own account. And the livestream had cut off just when Sharon was at her most captivating.

A perfect bait-and-hook strategy.

The less people could see, the more they wanted to. The mystery only fed their curiosity. It was an expertly placed smokescreen.

Anyone outside the industry would never guess it was manufactured. But this was clearly a calculated campaign-designed to launch an in-house artist into stardom.

Nate’s voice turned ice cold. “That’s right. Blacklist her. Then leak her ban to the public.”
