"Eliza, let me tell you this. You''re thepany''s artist. After signing the contract, as thepany''s employee, you should always ce the benefit of thepany and its boss first. Think about it. Isn''t thepany the one that gave you what you achieved today? This is a piece of advice from me. Take this 100 million dors and leave. After the scandal dies down, thepany can still find an opportunity for you to make aeback."


    Eliza could not bear to continue listening. She swept all of Chester''s documents on the table to the floor as though she was triggered. "Don''t treat me like a fool. Is making aeback that easy? I''m an A-list celebrity now, yet you exploited me fully. How many years will it take for this incident to die down? By that time, I won''t have the advantage of being young anymore. You won''t like me either. Thepetition within thepany is fierce. How will there still be hope for me to make aeback?"


    "You have a death wish."


    Chester grabbed her arm and flung it hard. Eliza was thrown to the floor.


    "Who do you think you are to throw things in my office? Haven''t you learned from the lessonst time?"


    Chester stared at Eliza from above. "I''m warning you. Don''t push your luck. If you offend me, I''ll make it so that you won''t even have the chance to make aeback."


    "Don''t you feel even an ounce of guilt toward me?" Eliza was sprawled on the floor and looked at Chester in a messy state.


    "What''s guilt?" Chesterughed coldly." What are you even that''s worth me feeling guilty over?"


    Eliza''s mouth hung open as if she had received a huge shock.


    She deliberately used cheap makeup on her face that day. After crying just now, her makeup had smudged entirely like a wet palette.


    Chester was disgusted with even just another nce. "Take the card and leave. If you think it''s too little money, just don''t take it."


    Eliza seemed frightened upon hearing that. She immediately got up and clutched the card.


    Chester''s gaze became even more contemptuous.


    ''Look at that. She said the money was too little and looked down on it, but she still clutched the card tightly in the end.''


    Women were all the same.


    "That''s a good girl." Chester''s expression looked better. "Eliza, I know thepany is indebted to you in this matter. Actually, if you hade in and talked to me in a good tone just now, my words wouldn''t have been that harsh. Take it as thepany owes you a favor this time. Thepany will return the favor to you in the future."


    Eliza sneered. It was akin to giving candy to patch things up after pping someone several times. He was treating people like fools.


    She shook her head in tears. "I don''t want thepany to owe me a favor. I can''t afford to offend you or thepany. I''m not very useful now anyway. I can''t bring in profit for thepany either. I''m thinking of terminating my contract."


    "Terminating the contract?" Chester lit the cigarette with a match and took a drag.


    Then, he said, "You''re not thinking of sleeping with other people to make aeback, right?"


    "No."


    Eliza raised her head, panicking. She exined miserably, "I just don''t want to remain in thepany anymore. I used to be the top star, butpared to Cindy, I''m now mocked and looked down on wherever I go. I''m nothing now. I''ll only be ridiculed further by other people. If you think thepany is indebted to me, let me terminate the contract. At least I won''t be receiving as many stink eyes.


    Chester did not say a word. He simply eyed Eliza with an investigative gaze as though he was determining the truthfulness of her words.


    "Moreover... I''ve lost all my worth now." Eliza smiled pitifully. "As for making aeback... Young Master Jewell, have you seen any female celebrities being able to make aeback after scandals of them having an abortion or being a homewrecker were exposed? Those broadcasting stations won''t take the risk to invest in the dramas I''m in. If no one invests in my dramas, the film directors won''t cast me at all. What else can I do other than be ridiculed if I remain in thepany?"


    "If so, do as you wish."


    Chester dropped the cigarette ash and spoke coldly afterward.


    He was a realistic person.


    When Eliza made that request, he had already mentally evaluated her worth.


    Indeed, besides wasting thepany''s money on her base sry, there were no other uses in keeping Eliza.
