"We're not going to sign with Selah.
"What?" Lindsey halted, bewildered.
"Why not?" Jayleen, her gaze icy, reclined in her chair and explained, “Selah's been out of the gfor five years.
A female star shines brightest in the three to five years after she hits it big.
To be honest, she's past her prime! Lindsey, do you want to bet on a faded actress and risk the company's reputation?" Lindsey struggled to grasp Jayleen's sudden shift.
"But Selah's past fame, even if she doesn't hit those heights again, guarantees more pull than most in our roster.

Howard, the top boss.

Howard wouldn't make such a rash decision without good reason! Jayleen's eyebrows arched slightly, "Mr.

Despite their different stations, it seemed too much of a doincidence. "Alright, I'll go see Mr.
Harvey," Lindsey said, and made her way out of Jayleen's office.
