Too Late to Hold Me Back novel Chapter 122

The music director, Callum, was the same. The now-popular film stars Andrew and Trevor shared a similar history. And the famous amateur singer, Mira, was the abandoned daughter of the Mercer family.

They had also heard that Mira's music teacher was Lania, another artist who had been discarded by Porter Entertainment and blacklisted by the industry.

What kind of people were they? Were they running a salvage yard for rejects?

Perhaps some were just envious and resentful, and finding flaws to pick at was the only way they could find some comfort.

The issue didn't stop there. After some digging by netizens and industry peers, they also discovered that:

Most of the key personnel in Solflare Entertainment's public relations, marketing, and promotion departments had resigned from other companies.

Especially from Porter Entertainment, Mercer Vision Entertainment, and others...

This... this... this was just unbelievable.

In the past, these things were considered major taboos. Being cast out by a major company was practically a death sentence.

Anyone who dared to hire them would be making an enemy of their peers.

Yet Solflare Entertainment had dared. Not only had they hired them, but they had helped them skyrocket to success.

But no matter what anyone said, their paid music model was a massive, history-changing success.

Before long, Mira faced her first monthly exam. This time, she set a goal for herself: to be first in the entire grade.

In her previous life, her grades had slipped for various reasons.

Mara, despite having a weaker foundation, had top-tier tutors for every subject hired by Lacey. Ethan, having studied abroad in the Javenaire Federation, would also help her whenever he had time.

In the first monthly exam of their senior year, Mara's total score broke into the top ten of the grade, while Mira had fallen from her usual first place to outside the top fifty.

Mira still remembered the day the results were released.

At the time, Norman, the butler, had picked them both up from school.

As soon as he walked in the door, Norman announced loudly, "Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. Mercer! Miss Mara ranked in the top three of her class and top ten of her grade on this month's exam."

Lacey immediately pulled Mara into a hug. "My darling, you're just too brilliant!"

"Hahaha, that's my Mercer family daughter.

You've always wanted to go to the Maldives, right? We'll take you during the upcoming fall break."

Adrian promised.
