Chapter 137 Mr. Quinn Came Here
After Belinda said that, the atmosphere backstage was extremely strained.
Stella just came out of the locker room and happened to hear Belinda's words.
The short-haired girl had always been shy. But in this situation where no one dare to say anything, she suddenly said, "Are you going to drive her away?"
Everyone suddenly looked at Stella.
Belinda stared at Stella and sneered. "It's not me but our investor who wants to drive her away. Our investor is not satisfied with Miss Gibson's behaviors."
"Investor?" Stella frowned.
"Stella." Ebony called her at the moment and said lightly, "Prepare for your rehearsal."
Stella didn't belong to Ebony's team now.
After she advanced to the next round, she was the trainee of the four major mentors again.
Stella looked at Ebony and said anxiously, "Miss Gibson, I..."
"Do as I say." Ebony interrupted her.
Looking at Belinda, Ebony sneered. "Last time you used your connections to kick me out of Amazing Tour. Now, again?"
Belinda squinted at her arrogantly. "Whatever you say."
Ebony said calmly, "But I don't think you will succeed this time."
"Pooh." Belinda laughed out loud. "We'll see."
It was about 1 o'clock in the morning after the rehearsal.
Ebony asked the trainees to leave and sleep. Then she also returned to the hotel.
In the hotel room, Janet had already known what happened backstage.
She said to Ebony, "I had told Dolores about it and she had told our president. Our president called the president of the TV station in person. The president said that Belinda had exerted pressure on them. But so far they haven't given a clear answer to her because her financial backer hasn't called them personally yet."
Ebony pursed her lips. "Belinda provoked me in that way. That means her financial backer will call them sooner or later. Who is her financial backer?"
Janet looked through the memo in her phone and said, "Mr. Quinn, the CEO of Dephon Entertainment."
Ebony frowned. "A big name indeed."
Ebony knew him in her previous life.
Although she didn't know his surname, he was really famous.
A top mogul in the showbiz.
Even Lloyd who was distinguished respected him.
Janet was a bit worried. "Ebony, will we be driven away by her?"
Ebony snorted. "Who says that?"
At midnight, Ebony went to an internet cafe.
She had stayed there for two hours and felt relieved when she left.
The next day was the day of the third public performance.
Early in the morning, Darryl was sitting in a car and received a call from William.
Darry was often busy, so William handled all the affairs of Dephon Entertainment for him.
On the phone, William's voice was very anxious. "Mr. Gibson, the company's server has been hacked. When the employees went to work this morning, they found that all the computers suffered from a virus. The prompt from the virus is a sentence. It asks you to check your mailbox."
Darryl was stunned. "Mailbox?"
William said, "Yes, would you like to... check the mailbox first?"
Darryl narrowed his eyes and exited the communication interface.
He logged in to the official mailbox of Dephon Entertainment.
He found a new e-mail.
After reading it, Darryl instantly laughed.
William asked puzzledly, "What's wrong, Mr. Gibson?"
Darryl said, "It's Belinda's enemy. He found a dozen Belinda's scandals and said if Belinda doesn't quit the talent show today, he'll reveal them online."
William was shocked. "So we..."
Darryl said casually, "Let him reveal the scandals as he likes. It's not a big deal. I remember that the company's contract with Belinda is about to expire. And I don't want to extend the contract with her. At that time, it's none of my business whatever situation she is in."
William got it and said, "Yes, I know what to do."
After Darryl hung up and was about to put his phone down, he had another call.
It was a call from Belinda.
Darryl didn't answer it and directly blacklisted her.
Darryl thought that as the contract expired, he was no longer her boss.
Why should he still keep her number?
In the lounge backstage for the public performance, Belinda was making herself up and asked her assistant beside her, "How is it? Still haven't gotten through? Why does it cost so much time?"
The assistant was so anxious and sweated. "It says that the phone is busy or is not in service."
Belinda frowned. "He may be on the plane."
Then she said to the director of the program team on the other side, "He is so busy that he is often away on business. So I often can't get through to him."
The director was embarrassed. "Belinda, in fact, Miss Gibson is..."
"Don't mention her." Belinda's face suddenly darkened. "I boasted it yesterday. Anyway, one of us must leave today. It's up to you."
The director scratched his head. "Or you call Mr. Quinn again? We can't make the decision either. If Mr. Quin demands it, we can negotiate with the president of the TV station..."
Belinda glanced at her assistant.
The assistant shook her head to imply that she didn't get through to Mr. Quinn.
Belinda instantly kept a straight face. "You don't believe me? Do you know that if I tell Mr. Quinn, your TV station will..."
"Belinda!" Belinda's another assistant suddenly ran over. "Belinda! Mr. Quinn comes here!"
"What?"
Belinda suddenly stood up from the chair.
She looked so surprised. "Mr. Quinn comes here? Where is him?"
"He is outside!"
Belinda hurriedly hitched up her dress and scurried out.
Ebony was helping the trainees adjust the ornaments on their clothes in the big locker room.
Suddenly, she heard the staff shouting excitedly outside. "Mr. Quinn is here... He is Belinda's boyfriend... So handsome. Yeah, he is outside."
Ebony paused and narrowed her eyes.
It seemed that Mr. Quinn cared more about Belinda than she thought.
He even came here to support Belinda in person.
Well, they wanted to drive her away? She could leave, but once she left, Belinda would not get any benefit too.
Did they think she dare not reveal Belinda's scandals?
She just didn't want to make more enemies before she destroyed Jared. After all, Dephon Entertainment was really a hard nut to crack.
But since Belinda insisted on doing harm to her, she would not fear offending them!
Ebony decided it. Her face was gloomy as she continued to help the trainees adjust their ornaments.
At the moment, someone on the other side shouted. "Stella, where are you going?"
Ebony looked towards them and saw that Stella who wear a performance costume and high heels was directly walking out.
Stella's team was the first place in the second public performance. So her team would perform first later in the third public performance.
The performance would begin soon. Where was she going now?
Although Stella was not a member of her team, Ebony was still worried and chased after her.
"Stella?" Ebony shouted from behind.
Stella suddenly stopped. When Stella, who was always meek, saw Ebony, she ran towards Ebony and grabbed her hands.
She said, "Miss Gibson, go with me."
Ebony was stunned by her and asked in a trance, "Where? What's wrong with you?"
Stella didn't say anything but dragged Ebony with a dark face.
Guided by the general director of the program team, Darryl was looking for Ebony in the name of visiting backstage.
But he didn't meet Ebony. While he was visiting backstage, Belinda suddenly ran over.
Darryl's face hardened.
But Belinda was very enthusiastic. After she said hello to him, Belinda directly walked up to Darryl. She gently pulled his sleeve and asked softly in a low voice, "Why do you come here in person?"
Darryl frowned and was about to withdraw his hand.
Then he saw two people running over.
Seeing those two people, Darryl was stunned.
Stella's face paled with anger. She dragged Ebony who looked puzzled and walked up to Darryl and Belinda.
Tears brimmed in her eyes. She looked at Belinda's hand that held Darryl's sleeve and shouted loudly. "Dad, what are you doing?"
Her words shocked everyone there.
The general director was dumbfounded.
The staff around them were all stunned.
Ebony was appalled.
And Belinda.
Belinda was frozen with shock.
Darryl glanced at Ebony and explained to Stella, "Stella, listen to me."
"What!" Stella stamped her feet with anger and pointed at Belinda. "Do you know this woman bullied me and my aunt? And she said she'll let aunt..."
"Stella!" Darryl suddenly stepped forward and covered her mouth.
"Hmm!" Stella struggled frantically.
Darryl coughed and carefully looked at Ebony.
He saw that Ebony was dumbfounded, and her small mouth was wide open with shock.
Darryl called her tentatively. "He... hello."
Ebony looked at Mr. Quinn and Stella, whose mouth was covered by Mr. Quinn.
She was at a loss for a while and then came to her senses.
She bowed to Darryl and said, "Hello, uncle. I'm Stella's friend, Ebony."
Darryl was speechless.
U.. uncle?
