After walking out of Miranda’s agency, Ashley took Miranda to a nearby coffee shop. In the box.
Miranda’s eyes were bright with joy:
“Ashley, thanks to you today! | was about to be pissed off by that Abby Blake, but as soon as you came over, you just helped me out! It was so relieving! There is also TCD’s luxury perfume endorsement, which | never dreamed of before. Dare to think!”
Miranda looked at Ashley excitedly, “I can’t help it anymore, | really want to call you my sponsor dad now!” Ashley was amused by her and couldn’t help but curl her lips, “I'd like to help you vent your anger.” However, she really wanted to praise Miranda.
Miranda’s excitement hadn’t subsided yet. She happily talked a lot to Ashley. As she was talking, she suddenly remembered something and frowned in confusion:
“It's strange. Abby Blake just came over recently and became the artist director of our company. | have no relationship with her. Why is she targeting me like this?”
If he just wants to steal her endorsement, it’s quite common. There are too many such things in the entertainment industry.
However, Abby Blake not only wanted to steal her endorsement, but also ridiculed and belittled her in public, as if he wanted to step on her deliberately.
Ashley narrowed her eyes slightly, a sharp edge flashed across her eyes, and said, “Abby Blake is Jessica’s biological mother.”
Miranda just picked up the coffee and took a sip. When she heard the words, she almost spit it out. She panicked and picked up a tissue to cover her mouth, “Ahem! Jessica... biological mother?”
Ashley nodded, “Yes, biological mother. Jessica was born to Abby Blake and a man named Brandon, and Evan also had a confusing relationship with Abby Blake. After Abby Blake gave birth to Jessica, she gave JessicaText © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

to Evan to raise.
Miranda’s face was filled with bewilderment. This triangle relationship was too confusing.
After being stunned for a few seconds, Miranda suddenly figured it out, “No wonder Abby Blake is targeting me like this. When Jessica asked someone to kidnap me, she also wanted to threaten you. Because of the kidnapping, Jessica was put in jail. | was the witness who testified against Jessica., so, Abby Blake has a grudge against me?”
Ashley looked apologetic, “Maybe you and | are too close, which has implicated you.” Miranda immediately shook her head and said seriously:
“Ashley, don’t say that. Jessica deserves to be in jail. She has done so many wrong things and wants to harm you every day. She should have received the punishment she deserves!
“If Abby Blake resents us because of this, instead of thinking about how to teach Jessica and get her back on the right path, then her thoughts are not very good. She and Jessica are really like biological mother and
daughter...” “By the way, does anyone else know that Abby Blake is Jessica’s biological mother?”
Ashley shook her head, “Except for the Ramos family, no one else kno about it. It has not been exposed to the outside world for the time bein
When Jessica’s life experience was revealed, no outsiders were present, so it was not completely exposed. Only the Ramos family knew about it.
Miranda couldn't help but guess, “In addition to Jessica, does Abby Blake have other children?” Ashley, “It's under investigation. If there is any, it will be found out soon.”
Miranda calculated in her mind that based on Abby Blake’s age, if she had other children, they shouldn't be too old, and they would definitely not be older than Jessica anyway.
Ashley pursed her lips, looked at Miranda with soft eyes, and spoke softly:
“Miranda, what I’m worried about now is that Abby Blake is the artist

director of your company. If she targets you like this, she might even try to bully you in the future...” “However, | came up with a solution that has the best of both worlds.”
“The Pliskin family has recently established two film and television. branches, one of which is called Starlight Entertainment Film and Television Media. Miranda, you can change jobs and sign with Starlight Entertainment. With me protecting you, Abby Blake will never be able to bully you again.”
Miranda was so moved when she heard this, she didn’t expect Ashley to even consider this for her. Almost everything is considered for her sake. Miranda immediately wanted to nod in agreement.
However, before nodding, Miranda remembered something and said hesitantly, “But my contract with our agency will not expire for another three years. If | terminate the contract early, | will have to pay the company a large amount of liquidated damages.”
Ashley’s bright eyes rose, “Liquidated damages? How much?”
Miranda looked troubled, “If the contract we signed was terminated early, all the mess would be added up, and we might have to pay nearly 10 yuan in liquidated damages.”
Ten thousand is really not a small amount.
Abby Blake dared to embarrass her so unabashedly, probably because she knew that she didn’t dare to terminate the contract and leave gracefully.
Miranda was just thinking about how much money she had in the card and how to get a few more millions, when she saw Ashley raise an eyebrow and said lazily, “Ten thousand, I'll pay for you.”
Miranda instantly, “!!!”
It's finished, it's finished! My heart is excited again!
Who can bear this!

After all, Miranda was still thin-skinned and felt that she was not ge rewarded for her efforts, “But Ashley, wouldn’t this be bad?” 3/5

Ashley chuckled, “Be good, | want to lure you here, so it’s only natural that | pay liquidated damages for you.
Miranda nodded obediently.
If the sponsor’s father wants her to be good, then she will be good!
In case the night was long and the dream was too much, the next morning, Ashley took several lawyers to Miranda’s agency to discuss the termination of the contract with Miranda.
Looking at those elite lawyers in suits and ties who were full of aura, Miranda pulled Ashley and asked in confusion, “Ashley, why are there so many lawyers?”
Ashley, “Professional people do professional things to prevent any hidden clauses in the contract. Let these lawyers read it carefully and terminate the contract completely. This will save Abby Blake from doing anything secretly or threatening you with these hidden clauses in the future..”
Miranda suddenly realized that Ashley was more considerate.
However, after taking a look at the leading lawyer, Miranda felt that she had seen it on TV and asked in a low voice, “Ashley, that lawyer, why does he look like Hughie Kessler?”
Ashley nodded, “Yes, that’s him.”
When Miranda heard this, she swallowed in shock, ‘Is it really Hughie? He... why is he here? That’s Hughie Kessler, the number one gold medal lawyer in the country! It is said that the lawsuits he fought were all between big companies and big companies. The competition between companies is worth tens of billions, and now you want to file a small termination lawsuit against me?”
It's too overqualified!
Ashley patted the back of her hand comfortingly, “This is more secure.”
Miranda was flattered, and without asking, she got Ashley’s favor again.
Ashley, “Don’t worry, the breakup will be smooth.”
Miranda, “Yeah, I’m not afraid as long as you're here!”
Next, Miranda witnessed Hughie’s professional ability to hit the point directly in just a few words. 4/5

At first, when Abby Blake learned that Miranda had terminated her. contract, she didn’t want to let her go easily. She even asked for a sky-high liquidated damages.
Hughie and his legal team fought back methodically, sentence by sentence, and based on the terms of the contract, accused the agency of not fulfilling the treatment promised to Miranda and instead taking away her endorsement.
After a negotiation, not only was Miranda successfully terminated the contract, but the liquidated damages were also kept to a minimum.
“Ms. Pliskin, negotiations completed.”
Hughie Kessler looked respectfully at Ashley sitting aside.
Ashley stood up, dusted her sleeves, glanced at Abby Blake expressionlessly, and left with Miranda. Looking at Ashley’s leaving back, angry flames rose in Abby Blake’s eyes.
Jessica’s imprisonment was inseparable from Miranda’s testimony. Originally, she wanted to teach Miranda a lesson and vent her anger for Jessica. Unexpectedly, Ashley was so vigilant and took Miranda away in just one day!
And Ashley...is the culprit behind Jessica’s imprisonment...
She must let Ashley also taste the feeling of going to jail!
