<h4>Chapter 348: Chapter 350: No One Dares to Hurt You Anymore</h4>


    She seemed genuinely terrified, her body trembling incessantly.


    As David lowered his head, he saw her tearful eyes and pale face filled with fear.


    Her face had been scratched, and two long red marks on her fair cheeks looked appalling.


    David’s face immediately darkened as he reached out to hold her, speaking in a soothing tone, "Annie, don’t be scared, I’m here. No one will hurt you when I’m around. Don’t be afraid..."


    Annie Lawrence clung to him, crying bitterly, "David, you must stand up for me. My face has been scratched, what am I going to do about my work going forward?"


    Annie relied on her beauty for her job, and with her face scratched like this, she wouldn’t fully recover for about a week.


    However, her uing schedule was packed, and she had no time for rest.


    Especially with an uing announcement the day after tomorrow.


    The announcement wouldn’t bring much money, but it would be quite helpful in boosting her poprity.


    David thought of this as well.


    Looking at the two long red scratches on Annie’s face, his eyes darkened, and he coldly said, "You don’t need to worry about this. Think of it as a vacation for yourself; I’ll arrange everything for you. Tell me what happened, how did the female artists from HE Company get into a fight with you?"


    In David’s opinion, it must have been the female artists from HE Company bullying Annie.


    Annie, being a gentle, kind, and soft-spoken woman, would never actively start a fight.


    Although he could not control HE Company’s artists, he could not stand by and let others bully his woman like this.


    As Annie Lawrence opened her mouth to speak, David furrowed his brows, "Where’s Linda? Why isn’t she with you?"


    At the mention of this, Annie’s eyes filled with tears, which began to fall.


    She looked at David with teary eyes, "I had a little misunderstanding with Linda today, and we got into an argument. In anger, she said she didn’t want to do it anymore. She even mocked my acting skills, saying that I’m not suitable for acting and that I should go into variety shows."


    David’s eyes revealed surprise, "Linda said she doesn’t want to do it anymore?"


    Linda had been a long-time employee of Gxy Agency, working there for nearly ten years.


    Why would she suddenly quit?


    "Yeah."


    Annie nced at David’s face and spoke with a sense of grievance, "We’ve had little arguments before because of differing opinions, but they were usually brief and ended quickly. I don’t know what happened this time, but she suddenlyshed out at me and then said she wouldn’t be my agent anymore."


    "She said she’d tell you about it. I thought you knew already."


    Annie was truly feeling wronged.


    Until now, she couldn’t figure out why Linda had suddenly turned against her.


    Was it just because she wanted to break the contract for "Empire Pce"?


    After all, she was David’s girlfriend and the future Lady Boss of Gxy Agency.


    Canceling a contract for a TV series was nothing.


    In the future, if she wanted good resources, she could obtain them easily. Even if she didn’t participate in "Empire Pce," it wouldn’t have much impact on her career.


    David’s face grew increasingly dark as he listened.


    "Are you sure it was just some small arguments that made her quit?"


    "David, do you think I’m lying to you?" Annie looked at him tearfully, "She wanted me to stop acting and only do variety shows. Just because I didn’t agree with her and rebutted her, she got angry and said she wouldn’t do it anymore."


    "Maybe she thinks that after working at Gxy Agency for ten years and helping so many artists be famous, they all obediently listen to her, but I didn’t. Is that why she doesn’t want to be my agent anymore?"
