Patience set her wine glass down, her eyes lighting up. “Wait. You’re saying you want to steal talent from your brothers‘ company?”
Amelia replied, “Exactly. They only care about Gianna, their precious little sister. Everyone else gets ignored.
“Unless some artist has big connections and flatters them nonstop, they’ll never get noticed. Most of the talented ones just get buried.”
And even the few who weren’t totally sidelined were only used to make Gianna look good. They never actually got a real shot.

company’s reputation early on. It brings both attention and credibility.”
Patience, who used to work under Maxwell at Nygard Entertainment, knew the company inside and out.
