Chapter 396 Rivalries and Schemes
If there was no The Quiet Ode, Blind Detective would have been Violeta's best bet.
But there was The Quiet Ode, so Violeta put all her hopes into it.
Whether she'd win an award or not, Violeta had no clue it was all up to fate.
On the other hand, the one who was most anxious about Tracy climbing up wasn't Violeta, but Zelena. Because
Zelena and Tracy were in the sleague, their teams were always at each other's throats. Zelena's team had
previously spread rumours about Tracy's poor acting, which made them enemies.
Violeta said, "Eugene, leak the news about Tracy joining a variety show. Someone else will take care of the rest
for us." Eugene thought for a moment and asked, "You mean Zelena's team?"
Aster said, "Zelena is really popular right now. There are rumours going around that she's Nolan's girlfriend."
Eugene laughed. "It's just a publicity. They're in the scompany, trying to promote new talent. Nolan's team
won't deny it.
"Beauty's right. Let's spread the news and let them fight among themselves."

Violeta smiled. "Eugene, if | don't win an award, will borrowing the jewellery forend up embarrassing you?"
Eugene said, "Oh, it's no big deal. Even if you don't win, you'll still look stunning on the red carpet. But | did
promise Lance that if we don't win, we'll have to go with his plans for the rest of the year." Eugene had always
managed Violeta's schedule himself.
To keep up her commercial value and public image, he had turned down a lot of low-quality endorsements, even
though they offered a lot of money.
Violeta positioned herself as an actress.
But to the company, no matter how big she got, she was just a "product."
Refusing high offers wasn't good for the company.
Only by having absolute talent could she have a strong voice.
If she wanted to enjoy the benefits the company provides, she had to give something in return.
Eugene had been very selective, but if Violeta didn't win this time, he'd have to follow the company's decisions.
It was a fair deal.
The word about Tracy joining a variety show eventually made its way to Zelena's team.
As soon as Zelena heard about it, she had her team go after the show as well.
She wanted to snatch the opportunity away from Tracy.
Zelena was already a hot topic because of the rumour that she was Nolan's rumoured girlfriend.
The gossip about Zelena and Nolan was all over the internet.
So when the variety show organisers heard that Zelena's team was eager to get involved, they were surprised
and really happy to work with her. Zelena knew she had a strong advantage, and when the show's team used the
buzz to their benefit, she was more than happy to agree.
With this turn of events, Zelena had a clear edge over Tracy, especially when it cto guaranteed viewership.
The organisers were leaning more towards Zelena.
Seeing the show slipping away, Tracy was really upset.
Feeling frustrated, she called her godfather.
But the response she got was, "Tracy, this show is still uncertain Zelena's rumour brings built-in buzz and
attention. You might have to take a step back this time.

Tracy was clearly upset. "So, are you just going to forget the promise you madelast time?"
The guy on the other end chuckled and said, "Don't worry. You wanted that Best Newcomer Award, right? I'll
make sure you get it." Tracy's eyes brightened. "Really? That's awesome!"
The following day.
Zelena and Tracy were at it again, arguing over their dress choices.
The teams met in the building where the filming was taking place.
With the variety show in her pocket, Zelena was acting quite high and mighty in front of Tracy.
"Tracy, thanks for letting go of the
variety show. Next tyou get
something this good, don't keep it to yourself-you can't really hold on to it
ER
Tracy was fuming but tried to play it cool. She said nonchalantly, "Honestly, | wasn't that interested in the show
anyway. | was actually trying to figure out how to turnat down. If you want it so much just take it. It's like picking
up trash and still being happy."
