True Tycoon Her Empire, Her Rules

Chapter 207

The next day the show went live, and the production team announced that Joseph, citing health reasons, had bowed out prematurely, whisked away the previous night by his agent.

Audiences in the live chat had seen it coming but rolled their eyes at the all–too–familiar eXCUSE

“Health reasons, again? Come on, Bagot, can’t you come up with something new?”

“Last season it was ‘health reasons‘ too. At this rate, Bagot, you’re gonna make us think there’s something in the water at the studio,”

“Let’s not be too hard on Bagot, the poor guy’s had a rough go of it. Three seasons in, and not a smooth one yet.”

With Joseph’s fans out of the picture, the chatroom’s mood was noticeably lighter.

Taking advantage of a break before the interactive segment started, and while the guests were still nibbling on their sandwiches, the veteran viewers began to casually chat among themselves in the live feed.

Naturally, the conversation still revolved around Joseph.

Overnight, the news of Joseph’s harassment had fermented into a full–blown scandal, with internet sleuths digging up old TV scenes of his, uncovering one too many ‘brotherly‘ interactions with younger male actors.

Especially after reading Hanson’s lengthy post, those old clips took on a new, unsettling light. The audience felt duped for not seeing it before, and their sympathy for Hanson grew.

Meanwhile, Joseph maintained an eerie silence, seemingly intent on playing dead.

The viewers were too engrossed in teasing each other in the chat to notice Winnie stepping away from the camera to whisper something to Bagot.

Soon after, Bagot pulled aside a few guests for a quiet word, and to the audience’s shock, the crew began packing up as if ready to leave.

Confusion reigned in the chatroom.
