Chapter 358 Rising Influence


    ?


    ''Keep digging and see if we can find out who bought it.''


    ''Got it.''


    Having dealt with Eugene for so many years, Lydia knew him well, and the feeling was mutual.


    Eugene had risen to the pinnacle as a top-notch agent, thanks to his sharp mind and undeniable prowess.


    Violeta was under Eugene, and she wouldn''t have made such a rookie mistake with his guidance.


    If this had passed Eugene''s scrutiny, it meant the brand had given a heads-up.


    Lydia''s brow furrowed slightly as her gaze swept forward.


    Just who exactly is this Violeta White?


    The Clio Charity Night was officially started.


    The room was darkened, and the curtains on the stage parted to reveal a promotional video for this evening''s event.


    The audience was filled with many stars, and the video was recorded in advance.


    Once the promotional video finished, some prearranged celebrities took the stage to auction off items.


    Among the elite attendees were the crème de crème of Quinston City''s society, with numerous richdies willing to spendvishly on their favourite male stars.


    Violeta hadn''t yet reached the status to take the stage, so she remained seated, watching the spectacle unfold.


    However, she spotted familiar faces up there.


    Nn, d in a sleek ck custom suit, stood alongside Polly Tillery and a few other top-tier celebrities, each exuding an air of elegance and sophistication.


    Violeta''s eyes lingered on Nn for a few moments.


    Eugene''s voice broke her reverie.


    "Nn has gained a lot of poprity over thest two years. Marina Media is practically bound to him, and I''ve heard they''re even considering to go public because of him."


    The influence of a top-tier star was frightening.


    Nn was able to single-handedly support the entirepany. Marina Media had transformed from a tiny five-person studio into a renowned mediapany in the industry, all thanks to him.


    He was their golden goose, and thepany treated him ordingly.


    Eugene exhaled deeply. "If Nn ever left, Marina Media wouldn''t only lose a key figure; it would be like ripping out their very bones."


    Violeta knew that Nn wouldn''t quit since he held shares in Marina Media.


    Even if he had no shares, Nn wasn''t one to forget his roots.


    "By the way, I heard Marina Media signed a few new artists recently. Who knows how they''ll develop in the future? This industry is packed with arge number of people trying to break in every year," Eugene remarked; his toneced with gossip.


    Violeta smiled gently before responding, "Mr. Scott, it sounds like you have a lot of faith in Nn."


    Eugene folded his arms; his eyes


    ???


    fixed on people at the stage. "Nn has a good personality, which is rare in this fame and fortune-driven world. Plus, every drama he stars in breaks records. His schedule, with one drama and one movie every two years, is perfect," he stated calmly.


    The film ''Journey'' that Nn coborated on with Polly Tillery had just been released.


    In its first week, it nearly hit 1.9 billion in box office sales and was still climbing, with high ratings to boot.


    It was evident that Nn was going to be on this year''s award list.


    When the event concluded, all the invited celebrities gathered on stage for a group photo.


    The prime spots were taken by the


    big stars, while Violeta stood in a more modest position on the left of


    the second row which was subtle but could not be ignoredpletely.

    Hattie stood behind Lydia on her right, in the same row as Violeta but further from the centre position than Violeta.


    The group photo session had ended.


    It was clear that only a handful of actresses wore haute couture outfits tonight and all of them were top-tier actresses.


    It was just Violeta, who was not yet in that league but still managed to steal the spotlight from Lydia with her "global''s first wear" attire.

    With past and present grudgesbined, she was determined to strike back.


    Though the true backer behind Violeta remained a mystery, Lydia quickly devised a surefire trending topic and instructed her assistant to handle it.
