Chapter 589
Aaron, the popular singer, was being told to be an ambassador for pills made for men who couldn't perform well in bed. He even had to say that he was too weak in bed for the commercial. Aaron's face darkened greatly. "Didn't you say I was supposed to be the brand ambassador for the company?"
When Joel saw the details of the commercial, he gasped as well. "Hey, is there a mistake? Our dear Aaron is an international singer. You're dooming him by making him do this kind of commercial." If it weren't for the scandal that previous night, they wouldn't have signed the contract in a hurry to pay all the compensation fees.
Mark looked at them mockingly. He couldn't believe they wanted to be their company's ambassador when Aaron had seduced a married woman.
"There's no mistake here. Mr. Miller is only suitable for this kind of commercial at the moment. If we let you be our company's ambassador, our reputation might be ruined because of you."
Aaron immediately got up. "What do you mean by that? You're doing this on purpose to mess with me, aren't you? I'm not doing this anymore!"
He was about to leave right away. Mark coldly looked at him and said, "You can leave, but you'll have to pay the 500 million-dollar contract breaching fee!"
There was a reason why Mark was Xavier's chief assistant. He knew Aaron was in great need of money at that moment. Thankfully, there was a lot of news on him online. Otherwise, Mark wouldn't have been able to find his weakness at all. When Aaron heard the amount of money he had to pay, he was infuriated further and was about to hit Mark.
Mark swiftly dodged it. "Mr. Miller, shall I remind you that our company has the best legal team? If you lay a finger on me, the compensation fee will be increased. So, you better think this through. Are you going to make your dear old dad pay for you?" Then, he left the room with the contract in his hand.
Joel pulled Aaron back, who was fuming in anger. If Aaron really hit Mark and ended up on the news again, he would be destroyed.
No matter how great of a celebrity he was, he would still be doomed for beating someone up and hooking up with a married woman.
Joel also thought Mark looked familiar. It was as if he had seen the latter somewhere before.
"Ronny, why do I have a feeling that this company is targeting you on purpose?"
Usually, a company would try to maximize a great celebrity's potential after hiring them. So, Joel thought they were obviously trying to destroy Aaron by making him work on that particular commercial. "Did you offend someone?" he asked again.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
Aaron slowly calmed down. "No. Who could I possibly offend?"
"I've checked the person behind IM Enterprise, and he doesn't have any history with us. How weird!" The person Joel had looked into wasn't Xavier at all. Instead, it was just a cover.
Meanwhile, Xavier's eyebrows raised
a little when he heard Mark's report. A celebrity meant nothing to him. He wanted to beat Aaron to the ground until the latter couldn't get up. Then, he wanted to see if Yvette would still like Aaron.
"Since he's so dashing, I'm going to make him shoot this commercial abroad, Mr. Lane." Mark was used to doing something that would harm others without benefits. Xavier didn't reject his idea, which was a tacit agreement.
IM Enterprise wasn't afraid of tarnishing a celebrity's fame, and no celebrity could offend them. Everyone in Tirion's business world was on high alert as well.
The foreign IM Enterprise had bought over a lot of small businesses and snatched various projects. All the older businesses in Tirion were worried about them.
They all secretly tried to look into the
person behind IM Enterprise. They even had a gathering with most of the entrepreneurs in Tirion to discuss how they could get rid of IM Enterprise. They purposely left Xavier out because they thought he was useless.
Meanwhile, Archibald brought Kiki along to the gathering. She figured she would have nothing to talk about with the people there, so she invited Yvette as well.
