Defying Fate: The Unstoppable Eileen novel Chapter 129

In these talent shows, there were always some folks who got a bit of extra TLC. Hedy was the public favorite of this show, like everyone knew she was getting a little extra sugar from the producers.

But while Hedy was hogging the spotlight, there was another dark horse in the mix. She was flying under the radar, gradually rising, and then boom! She skyrocketed to the top, taking everyone by surprise.

That girl was Tania.

Eileen actually knew Tania from way back. She recognized her right at the start of the show. But Tania didn’t make any noticeable mistakes, either early on or during public performances later on, so Eileen kept her mouth shut.

Why on earth would a star like Aurora come to this little talent show to be a coach? Obviously, she had to pave the way for her niece, Tania.

Eileen knew Tania because she used to play second fiddle to her. In a web series, Tania was the leading lady, and she was the supporting actress. After Tania made her debut, she shot to fame and started acting.

On set, everyone knew Tania was Aurora's niece, and Tania was quite proud of it. But this fact never saw the light of day in the media.

You thought in the entertainment industry, with paparazzi everywhere, nothing stayed hidden? Wrong. The paparazzi only exposed those stars with no connections.

If you had power and influence, even if you flaunted your secrets in front of the paparazzi, they wouldn't dare expose them for fear of offending the big money behind the stars.

At the end of the day, it was a dog-eat-dog world.

Back in the day, the rumors about Aurora and Mr. Chad, the general manager of the entertainment company, were all over the place. The paparazzi, not wanting to tick off the big guy, turned a blind eye to Aurora.

Did you think someone like Aurora had no skeletons in her closet? After all, even sweet little Bblythe couldn’t stand her.

After Eileen spilled the beans, the room was buzzing.

The audience was absolutely pumped.

The production team was scared out of their wits! How come every time they taped, Eileen had to drop a bombshell?! Could they even continue with the show?!

The production team quickly intervened.

Aurora looked like she'd swallowed a lemon, and Hubery was sweating bullets. In the end, he grabbed the mic and demanded, "Ms. Lopez, do you have any proof to back up what you're saying?"

Eileen shook her head. "I don't have any proof."

Hubery breathed a sigh of relief, thinking he had the moral high ground. "Then please don't make unfounded accusations!"

Eileen just smiled. "I may not have proof, but I trust Ms. Aurora. Aurora, why don't you tell us, is Tania your niece or not? If you say she isn't, I'll believe you."

Aurora turned pale as a ghost. She glared at Eileen with a look that could kill. Her hands clenched into fists beneath the table.

Eileen lounged back, a slight smile on her face. "Go on, say she's not. I trust you, Aurora. I would never question your integrity."

"Aurora..." Hubery mumbled at her side.

Aurora shot him a glare. Hubery knew very well that Tania was her niece, so why didn't he just make Tania the center from the get-go? Why did he wait until the last minute to switch and cause all this fuss?
