Chloe had no clue why Linda was there, but she was long past the point of caring about their rivalry. Maybe leaving this place wasn't such a bad idea after all.
At nine o'clock, everyone headed to the conference room for a meeting.
Tony said, "Lynn's wrapping up her handover and leaving the network in a week, so we need to decide on the new prime-time host within this timeframe."
Vivian chimed in, "Sir, I think Linda would be perfect. I recently saw her work at NBC, and she was amazing. She filled in as NBC's international host and even smoothly switched between English and Spanish. Her hosting was top-notch."
Tony nodded, "Linda is indeed impressive, but this position was originally meant for Chloe. She has the most advertising contracts and the highest popularity."
Vivian retorted, "We're not the advertising department. What matters here is professional ability. If we start focusing on who has the most ads, soon everyone will be more interested in courting sponsors than doing real journalism."
The words "courting sponsors" were laden with sarcasm and clearly aimed at someone.
Chloe casually flicked her hair, "At Titan Corporation's business banquet the other day, I overheard their employees talking about a girl from our station with lip filler who's been cozying up to Kaden daily. Kaden’s wife Grace saw her sitting on Kaden's lap, calling him 'daddy,' and slapped her right then and there. Now, Kaden and Grace are getting divorced. I'm really curious. Do we actually have someone like that here?"
Vivian's face went pale instantly. Furious, she stood up, "Chloe, stop making things up."
