Because Avery got choked with seawater, although she seemed fine when she was rescued, not long
after being sent to the infirmary, she had a fever and a sore throat.
Her temperature wasn't very high, but because of Avery's non-stop tantrums, her condition seemed
more serious than it actually was.
The production team had no choice but to contact her manager so she could relay it to Avery's family.
Because they rushed instantly upon receiving the news, Avery's parents arrived at the set in a short
time.
As soon as she saw her parents appear, Avery immediately cried to her mother.
"Mommy, someone tried to kill me!"
Avery's mother looked at her in shock and doubtfully asked, "Didn't you say that it was an accident?
Why would someone even try to kill you?"
The notice they received from the production team was different from their daughter's claims.
They had told her that Avery wasn't ready when she went to the water so she almost drowned.
They even said that their daughter didn't follow the production team's arrangement, causing her an
accident.
Obviously, they were refusing to take responsibility for this.
So now that she heard her daughter's words, she felt a little confused.
Since her parents were here now, Avery knew that they would support her, so she told her what
happened.
She kept accusing Melody of bullying her during the variety show and that she was the one who almost
killed her.
As her parents, they had long known Avery's temperament.
Back then, Avery had already contacted them and requested to find someone to pressure the variety
show's production team to make them drive the Sullivan sisters out of the show.
Unfortunately for Avery, the pair of sisters were currently gaining more and more popularity.
The ratings even increased because of them.
How could they possibly agree to let go of their current cash cows? At first, Avery's parents thought that
their daughter's temper wasn't good which resulted in a conflict so they did not plan to spend much
effort handling it.
But now that they heard that the Sullivan sisters were actually so daring to even attempt murdering
their daughter, how could they let it go? How could they raise their chin if they couldn't even handle
something like this? Avery's father angrily slammed his hands on the table.
He scolded everyone on the spot, "Do you really think that our Jones family is so easy to bully? If the
production team does not give us an explanation today, we will not let this matter go.I will make sure
that everyone there will suffer the consequences!"
The production team arranged a party set after the first recording.
The other three teams were also going to attend.
According to rumors, the biggest investor was even going that night.
The biggest investor, who was basically the director's benefactor, was personally going, so the director
handled everything carefully to avoid making any mistakes.
When the teams met, Rachel kindly reminded Sarah.
Sarah listened to Rachel carefully and thanked her before running excitedly to Melody.
"Mellie, our show's biggest investor will be coming tonight as well! Even Rachel was required to attend
the party.Do you think that this is my chance to turn things around?"
Before Rachel had told her about it, Sarah already received the news.
Her manager, Tyrone, sent her a message.He also reminded her to be careful tonight and to try leaving
a good impression on the biggest investor.
If she succeeded, Sarah could fight for better opportunities in the future.
On contrary to Sarah's excited mood, Melody was stoic as usual.
She did not even react.
Sarah didn't mind.
After all, Sarah understood why Melody didn't care.
Melody did not have any plans to join the entertainment industry.
The only reason why Melody participated in the variety show was purely to help her.
Sarah had really gotten a lot of profits from this show.
Tyrone even said that advertisers were voluntarily sending her an invite to be their endorser.
It might seem like it was a common thing but something like this was unimaginable before.
After Sarah had calmed down a bit, she turned to ask Melody, "Lil Melody, do you want to come with
me tonight?"
Melody didn't have to think twice before she shook her head.She neither had the time nor the interest
to meet any investor.It was better to spend her time sleeping.
"I'm not going!"
It was a simple reply but Sarah knew that there was no room for other options.
Knowing her sister's temperament, Sarah did not insist and replied, "It's fine.Then when I'm out, rest
well in the room, okay? I'll come back early tonight and we'll leave together.Don't worry about
me.Tyrone will be with me at the party"
"Mmni!"
Melody hummed in response and turned around to continue her disrupted sleep.
Seeing her resting, Sarah didn't dare to disturb Melody and quietly walked out of her room, carrying her
things.She applied makeup on her face and went to the venue of the party tonight.
Tyrone had been waiting for Sarah at the hotel.
When he saw Sarah walking alone, he was stunned.
"Sarah, where is your sister?"
Without thinking much, she casually replied, "Mellie is resting in her room."
Tyrone said seriously, "Hurry up and call her over.How can she not come out on such an important
occasion?"
In Tyrone’s eyes, Melody had great potential.
If she could develop well in the entertainment industry, it would not be an issue for her to get to the
top.Sarah didn't like what Tyrone said.
A frown formed on her face.
"Rone, you know that my sister's personality is not suitable for being in the entertainment industry.Don't
think about dragging her here.She already said that she doesn't want to come.Don't force her."
Tyrone and Sarah had known each other for many years and Tyrone knew where her bottom line
was.Sarah was a sentimental person and placed a lot of importance on her family members.
Melody's matter had touched her bottom line.
Tyrone gave up and quickly begged for mercy.
"Fine, fine, fine.You are my goddess.Whatever you say is fine.Hurry up and go in or others will say that
we are acting like we are big shots"
Sarah was neither late nor was she too early.She followed behind Tyrone to take a seat.
After everyone had settled on their seats, they waited for the bigshot investor to appear.
Suddenly, the door of the private room opened and the producer of the variety show stood up out of
excitement.
When he stood up, he thought that it was the bigshot arriving, but it was Gustav standing in the door
instead.
The producer knew Gustav and had dealt with him before.
Seeing that his expression was not right, he didn't sit back down and walked forward with a smile
plastered on his face.
"Mr.Jones, why are you here?" Gustav harrumphed.
His expression was gloomy and his voice was strange as he answered, "Producer Sanders, it's very
lively in here.You even held a celebratory party while my poor daughter is still lying in the hospital with
a high fever!"
Upon saying this, the expression of everyone in the room changed.
"That man is Avery's father.He's quite powerful and has some connections with other influential figures
in the entertainment industry!"
There was only a slight change in Sarah's expression.She knew that trouble would be coming for her.
The only fortunate thing was Melody did not attend the party with her.She would take care of everything
here and make sure that Melody wouldn't be implicated.
Producer Sanders was also a smart person.
He smiled at Gustav and said, "President Jones, what happened to Avery was an accident.None of us
wanted to see it.Why don't you sit down and let me accompany you for a drink? Next time there's a
good show, I will look for Avie immediately."
In his heart, Producer Sanders was worried that the bigshot would come soon.
He didn't want to cause trouble.
"It's not that I'm trying to make trouble for you, but this matter doesn't seem to be an accident.Someone
deliberately did it to my daughter"
Gustav's icy gaze swept over Sarah and fiercely glared at her.
Gustav didn't beat around the bush.
He straightforwardly pressured the production team and said to Producer Sanders, "If you are willing to
hand over someone to me and let me take her to apologize to my daughter, our friendship will
remain.And if something happened in the future, I will do my best to help!"
Tyrone saw that something was wrong and pulled Sarah to stand up.
Gustav had some tricks up his sleeves and he wasn't someone that anyone could easily offend.
He put on his standard professional expression and stepped forward, raising a glass of wine,
"President Jones, Sarah is someone who's under my wing.I know her personality very well.Please don't
be angry.There must have been a misunderstanding.Let me give you a toast.It’s our fault if we made
you unhappy!"
Tyrone lowered his posture, wanting to settle this matter as fast as possible.
However, Gustav did not want to let him off easily.He directly reached out and knocked over the wine
glass in Tyrone's hand.He glared at him as he condescendingly replied, "Who are you? What makes
you think that your words matter?"
This was undoubtedly an insult to Tyrone in public.
Sarah was very angry.She could not suppress her anger as she exploded on the spot.She shouted at
the other party.
"Why are you acting so unreasonable? It's clearly your daughter who was causing trouble! Why are you
making false accusations?"
Gustav's face was cold, but his face was gloomy and terrible.His dark face was like a storm that was
about to come.
"You said I was bullying people, right?"
He nodded fiercely as he glared at Sarah, his finger pointed at her, "Alright, then I will let you see what
is called bullying!"
Gustav raised his hand and slapped Sarah in the face.
The atmosphere had long been tense and silent so the sound of his slap echoed in the room.Everyone
was shocked!
