<h4>Chapter 1125: Chapter 1123: From now on, they’ll be yourpetitors.</h4>


    In short, Linda absolutely did not want to be in the samepany as Annie Lawrence.


    Joanna Lawrence was taken aback: "Annie wants to sign with HE Company?"


    "Yeah."


    "Has Mr. Tucker agreed?"


    "He hasn’t agreed yet, but I think Mr. Tucker wants to sign her. Joanna, if Annie really signs with HE Company, can you ept it?"


    Linda’s reply to Garret Twain was to let him deal with it at his discretion.


    She guessed that in the end, Garret Twain would probably sign Annie Lawrence.


    She didn’t particrly mind.


    She and Annie Lawrence had some unpleasantness between them, but as long as she didn’t have to manage Annie, she could ept it even if she minded it a bit.


    What she was more concerned about was Joanna’s opinion.


    "Linda, if thepany really wants to sign Annie Lawrence, I have no problem with it." Joanna thought about it before answering Linda, "I can understand thepany’s actions too."


    For HE Company, between her and Annie, it was clear that Annie would bring more benefits to thepany.


    Annie had be a top-tier artist.


    As much as Joanna didn’t like Annie, she couldn’t deny that she couldn’tpete with her at the moment.


    It wouldn’t be difficult for Annie, who had broken her contract with Gxy Agency, to find another goodpany to work with.


    Her fame was well-known.


    "You really understand?" Linda looked at her. "If Annie signs with HE Company, she will be yourpetitor in the future. You really don’t mind?"


    Joanna Lawrence smiled: "Linda, thepany focuses on its interests, so I can understand their actions. Besides, even if Annie and I are in the samepany, we won’t see each other every day."


    "Well, as long as you can ept it." Linda nodded, pleased, "If Annie reallyes to HE Company, don’t worry, I won’t let you lose to her. Even to save face, I won’t let her take advantage of my artists."


    "I’ve managed her for two years, and I’m well aware of her capabilities. Though she’s no longer with Gxy, she can’t have the same quality of resources, nor can she be as carefree as she was at Gxy. If she really signs with HE Company, her development will be limited."


    "But you’re different." Linda looked at Joanna with admiration, "You’re in a much better position than Annie. You just need someone to support you. Now that Mr. Tucker knows about your rtionship with President Ashton, he will share some of his resources with us in the future."


    "It’s only a matter of time before you be popr, maybe a year or two. I believe you will surpass Annie soon."


    Joanna had no doubt about Linda’s capabilities.


    In fact, most of Gxy’s top-tier artists were brought up by Linda.


    Ironically, Annie Lawrence was one of the people Linda had made famous.

    They didn’t wait long in the private room before there was a knock on the door.


    Linda got up to open the door, and upon seeing the person outside, she extended one hand with a smile: "Mr. Southey, hello, we meet again."


    Mr. Southey was Color Vista’s Regional General Manager.


    He came in with his secretary, and as he entered the private room, he saw Joanna standing inside. Before she had a chance to greet him, he hurriedly walked up to her and extended his hand: "Ms. Joanna, right? Hello, hello, it’s a pleasure to meet you."


    His enthusiasm mixed with a bit of eagerness made Joanna pause.


    She blinked, looking at Linda with confusion, her eyes asking who this man was.
