Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 189

Soon after, Georgie Clementine walked in. She was wearing a set of slim women's suit with a white shirt on the inside. It was the standard outfit of professional beauty.

With her new 'Xin Zhilei hairstyle', Georgie seemed even more capable and professional.

"When did you change your hairstyle?" Xyla Quest asked.

"Last night," Georgie said with a chuckle.

After that, Georgie placed a red folder in front of Xyla.

"This is the results for the trainee assessments. I just tabulated them. Some of them have been becoming worse for four consecutive months. I am planning to eliminate them. Have a look..." Georgie said.

"Got it. Speaking of which, Georgie, tell your subordinates to pay extra attention to Jay Corben. Hmm, not only can this kid sing and dance well, he even knows how to write songs. He also had good looks and a uniquely straightforward personality. I believe he will become someone capable in the future. During the winter break, speak to our partner, Goose Factory, and arrange for Jay Corben to be in the reality competition, 'Teenage Idol'," Xyla said.

"But I've already decided on the name list and sent it over to them. There are a total of twenty-three people from our company participating in it. I've already informed the subordinates too," Georgie said. Once the trainees had reached the desired standard, the company would arrange for them to participate in various reality competitions to boost their popularity or even form new groups for their debut. 'Teenage Idol' was a group-based reality competition X Entertainment worked with Goose Factory to produce. It will be aired on the 20th of January next year.

Like most group-based reality competitions, a hundred handsome and talented teenagers would gather to be trained and go through different competition stages. The most talented few who remained would form a group and have their careers launched thereon.

This year, ten remaining boys would be selected on 'Teenage Idol' to form a group.

Meanwhile, the leader of the group would depend on online voters. Out of the ten people, the highest voted member selected by online voters would become the group leader.

"I noticed that Horace Lance did not perform as well as Jay Corben during the assessment... Moreover, his overall capabilities have also dropped. Strike him off the list and let Jay Corben take his place. Can you speak to the people from Goose Factory about this?" Xyla asked.

"Okay, I'll do as you say," Georgie said.

"Hmm, sorry for the trouble. Anyway, I'm about to order a Japanese takeaway. Do you want to eat with me?" Xyla chuckled.

"Sure," Georgie said before walking over to the coffee table and sitting down on the couch.

"Oh, right. Have you checked out the most popular topics on the internet?" Georgie said.

"What about it?" Xyla asked.

"The Sullivan Food Group managed to get past the crisis. The factory manager involved in the food factory scandal has stepped forward and pleaded guilty. He said he used expired ingredients because he wanted to earn from the lower price. It was all out of his own greed and had nothing to do with the upper management staff of the Sullivan Food Group. In fact, he was willing to take all the blame. Now, everyone on the internet is attacking him," Georgie said.

This was all within Xyla's expectations. Therefore, she was not too surprised.

Most enterprises would deal with negative media in such a way.

"I've got to hand it to Julian Sullivan... He has managed to fix everything within a few days," Georgie added.

"In terms of capabilities, Julian is definitely way better than Tom Sullivan. If the accident hadn't happened, Tom would not have even had the chance to take over the position as the Sullivan family's heir," Xyla said.

"With Julian performing so well this time, Tom will never have the opportunity to prove himself," Georgie said before pouring herself a cup of water from the water dispenser. She slowly sipped from the cup. Xyla did not say anything. Instead, she merely smiled satisfactorily before opening the food delivery application and ordered the food she liked.

"However... Although it's all over, the Sullivan family won't be able to live in peace in the days to come... That's because not long after this piece of news came out, the Dragon Group announced that they had successfully withdrawn their investments from the Sullivan family's business. Now that a large part of the Sullivan family's source of capital is cut off, their recovering stock price is plummeting yet again," Georgie said.

"Dragon Group is savage," Xyla said.

"President Xyla, I also heard some gossip from someone I know..." Georgie said.

"What gossip?" Xyla looked up at Georgie's face in interest.
