She left immediately after saying so. The director wanted to stop her but was stopped by Isaac who
came out of nowhere.
“If you want to blame someone for this incident, blame it on your own employee. Who told her to bring
up all that nonsense? Your host has angered our lady and won’t stay here anymore, not even for
another second.”
At first glance, the director instantly knew that he was a man of extraordinary status and ability. He
sighed helplessly and hurriedly arranged for someone from the next show to take over.
However, when such an incident happened, it was natural for everyone to know that something had
occurred during the live broadcast, and it must be something major and extremely serious.
The television station’s official social media platforms were flooded almost instantly as countless
people commented on their page.
“What just happened? How can a financial interview be so exciting?”
“By the way, has Juniper left her pea brain at home? Can the host of a TV program even talk like
that?”
“She deserves it. I already thought she was only putting on a show before this, but I didn’t expect that
she’d be someone who loves to seduce someone else’s husband and even bully her guests on her
show!”
“By the way, the guest, Ms. Lane, she’s so cool. She made the whole program sound like a proper plot
of a modern novel in which the female lead has come back in search of revenge…”
The number of comments reached more than 1,000 in no time at all, most of which were accusing
Juniper of her actions.
The atmosphere in the television station was not looking too good
either.
Juniper stood in the corridor as the director rebuked her. “Juniper, I’ve always thought that you’re a
brilliant person, so why are you so senseless today?! Even if you hold a huge grudge against our
guest, you can’t bring it with you into the studio! We were facing so many audience members during
the broadcast. How do you expect me to explain the whole situation to them now? Did you even think
about your reputation and image when you said those things?”
Juniper also knew that she had caused a catastrophe, but she really could not help it and blurted out
those words without even thinking.
“I’m sorry, sir.”
“Don’t apologize to me. Do you think your apology is worth anything now?” The director looked at her
exasperatedly. “Recently, gossip and rumors about you have been going around in the industry, and
now this. For now, I think you should just stay at home and take it as a short break to grab some
needed rest. We’ll talk as soon as you’ve gone back to your peak.”
“No, I don’t need to take a break.”
Juniper panicked. She had seen too many hosts and celebrities who were asked to take a break and
stay at home due to broadcast
incidents. All of them would be shelved at the end of the break in
most cases, and with that, they would lose all opportunity at a comeback.
“I can do it, sir. What happened earlier was only an accident. I’ll post an apology on my Twitter later, so
please give me another chance.”
“All opportunities must be fought and won. I’m really disappointed with our behavior during the
interview. With the damage that you’ve just done to your own reputation, if I were to still allow you to
stay here in the department without any caveat, I really don’t know what
you’ll do after this. So, you going on a holiday would only do both parties good.”1
After saying so, the director turned around and left.
Juniper froze in place, and as her colleagues walked by her occasionally, all of them stared at her with
condemning gazes. Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
Many of them could not even stop picking up phone calls from viewers who wanted to launch
complaints regarding the incident, while some had to clean up comments on all social media because
of the aftermath of today’s incident.
She stared blankly at the scene and suddenly realized that this was Hesper’s most ruthless revenge.
Outside the television station.
After Hesper came out of the building, she got into Isaac’s car, and the little boy pounced into her arms
from the rear seat.
“Mommy, I heard your interview just now. Aunt Juni sounded so dumb during the show. And yeah, she
always wants to seduce daddy.”
Hesper’s gaze dimmed for a moment, but it was not because of jealousy.
‘Even Renfrew can see her filthy actions so clearly. This only goes to show that they don’t even shy
away from it at all. Aren’t they afraid that they’ll raise a bad kid?!’
“Don’t worry about her. I’ve already taught her a lesson.”
“You’re so awesome!”
Isaac watched as the mother and son laughed and roughhoused, but still asked, “Ms. Lane, will you let
Ms. Wight go after this? In my opinion, the higher-ups of this television station treat her very well, so if
the aftermath of this matter were to be reduced to an acceptable level, wouldn’t it be a waste of your
time?”
