Chapter: 791
Leif sighed heavily and shook his head, not saying anything.
“Mr. Brooks, the audience really like Maria. Even if the matter is later proven to be true, it's not serious enough for you to dismiss her from the show."
Jenifer approached Leif too and tried to persuade him using a more euphemistic approach. She really hoped he could change his mind.
But it wasn't enough. Leif just sighed and shook his head.
This matter was not up to him at all. Leif was frustrated, but he couldn't explain himself.
He felt awful that he had to remove Maria from the show, and on top of that, take the blame for it.
But he had no choice. He looked over at Jacqueline who was sunbathing in a lounge chair, sipping juice. It was obvious she wanted nothing to do with this, even though this was her idea from the very beginning.
“Leif, are you keeping something from us?"
Matthew had been in the entertainment world a while. He was experienced and mature and knew more than Jenifer and Dominic about how things worked in this circle.
Leif grimaced but couldn't say anything. Matthew nodded knowingly and pointed towards Jacqueline. Leif nodded.
Since the first episode of Taste of Childhood aired, its popularity had skyrocketed.
As the show's producer, Jacqueline was proud that many celebrities even praised it.
Producing this show and persuading her family to invest in it was probably the best thing she did.
At this time, she was drinking juice and resting on the Lounge chair. To pass some time, she scrolled through Twitter on her phone.
Jay, the award-winning actor, liked the production team's tweet and commented, “The live streaming part is fascinating. I cannot wait for the prerecorded segment.”
Lyndsey, a well-known best actress, retweeted with a question, "How can I be a guest on this show? Even just for one episode?"
The well-known director, Francis, both liked and retweeted the tweet announcing the Launch of the show.
Even the famous e-sports player, Darren, did the same thing as Francis. Jacqueline was ecstatic. Her hands trembled as she scrolled through the tweets.
These famous celebrities all Liked the program she invested. She didn't even know them.
It seemed that investing in the second season of Taste of Childhood would be a great idea.
Then, she would do her best to include Jay, Lyndsey, Francis, and Darren in the show.
While daydreaming about it, Jacqueline noticed that there was something wrong.
The public's response to Maria‘s dismissal was far from what Jacqueline had expected.
What surprised her most was the celebrities' reaction.
