Internet sleuths immediately get to work, and Loretta's hidden past is dragged into the spotlight. She isn't a rookie. She has been in the industry for years, chasing a dream that never materialized. She was a total ghost—no hit singles, no variety show appearances, no live performances.

Dennis Media, already bleeding out from Jade's cheating scandal, takes another massive PR hit. The backlash is brutal. Rival agencies flood the timeline with think-pieces analyzing Dennis Media's toxic culture of nepotism, officially branding Jade as a talentless "industry plant" who only gets roles through family connections.

Meanwhile, Astra Media is hailed as the new gold standard of the entertainment world. With Tara's brilliant creative direction and Danny's billionaire backing, the agency looks unstoppable. A-list celebrities whose contracts are nearing expiration are already having their agents secretly reach out to Astra.

Amidst the explosive hype, Loretta is paralyzed by a mix of overwhelming joy and sheer terror.

She is finally being recognized for her own voice. But she knows exactly how ruthless the Dennis family can be. They know she was Jade's ghost-singer. Now that Tara has thrust her into the spotlight, there is no way Jake and Jade will let her get away with it.
