Chapter: 469

“Are you even listening to yourself? The publicity department has always focused on the company’s

interests. Tyler’s popularity is good for the company, and his acting in the movie is a smart move. He’s

bound by the contract, so what trouble could he possibly make?” Ronald replied.

“Is that so? I heard that Star Media Corporation will be investing in the movie. If it makes a profit, it

won’t have anything to do with SJ Entertainment,” Jasper said with a vicious smile, blowing out wreaths

of smoke. “And we’ll only get seventy percent of the payment for Tyler, right?”

Norton chimed in, “How much can a newcomer make for a movie? I doubt it’ll cover the marketing

expenses. Your department is to blame. Your stupidity makes it easy for you to be taken advantage of.”

Ronald panicked for a moment. It was a major taboo for the publicity department not to make at least

forty percent profit on investments. If they didn’t, their operating expenses for the next quarter would be

greatly reduced, and Ronald’s perks next year would disappear. He might even lose his job.

“What if we use the contract to stop Tyler from shooting the movie?” Ronald suggested.

Donna’s eyes lit up. “Oh, that’s a great idea. If Tyler doesn’t comply, we can sue him for breaking the

contract.”

Jasper, who was seated at the head of the table, finally seemed to relax a bit and nodded his head.

“That should do it. Anyway, we have to stop the shooting of this movie.”

At ten in the morning, Ariana woke up to several missed calls from Jayson.

Frowning, she felt a bit uneasy since Jayson rarely called and they usually communicated through

texts. Was something wrong?

She called him back immediately and he answered on the second ring. His voice sounded grave.

“Something’s come up. I can’t explain it over the phone. Meet me at the coffee shop where we first met

as soon as you can.”

Ariana’s stomach churned. Her first thought was that something had gone wrong.

She quickly got up, washed up, and changed her clothes as fast as she could. When. she arrived at the

cafe, she was surprised to see Jasper and Donna there, along with a few unfamiliar people dressed in

suits who looked like senior executives of SJ Entertainment.

“You finally made it. Come and have a seat,” Jasper said, taking the main seat with a fake smile on his

face.

Without even acknowledging Jasper, Ariana ignored him and sat down next to Jayson. She asked him

in a hushed voice, “What’s going on? Why is Jasper here, and why is he accompanied by an entire

team?”

Jayson’s face darkened. “These are the legal counsels of SJ Entertainment. Jasper brought them to

claim that SJ Entertainment doesn’t approve of Tyler acting in The Missing Body.”

Ariana was so angry that she burst out laughing. Raising her head to meet Jasper’s eyes, she

demanded, “When did SJ Entertainment start restricting its artists from accepting opportunities? This is

the first time I’ve heard of it.”

Apart from artists involved in major scandals harshly judged by the public, entertainment companies

would generally not interfere with their artists’ job opportunities. The only time they did this was as a

punishment.

Since Tyler signed as an artist in SJ Entertainment, the company had never arranged any

advertisements or events for him. Ariana was the only one sourcing out opportunities for him.

Now that Tyler’s career was picking up, these villains wanted to step in and mess up her efforts.

“The company had never restricted its artists from accepting opportunities before, but that doesn’t

mean it can’t do that. After all, the contract is there to restrict our artists’ behaviors. They have to follow

the company’s arrangements, or they will be regarded as breaking the contract,” Jasper said while

raising his chin arrogantly and smiling at Ariana.
