Bride of Retribution: Aloof Billionaire's Dominant Game-Chapter 627 - 343 Still need to go find him_2
Angela Scott’s words clearly told Avery Jane that she could only choose one of the two, but neither was what she wanted.
Thinking of Lucas Yates wearing white clothes in the laboratory, the pain in her heart quietly spread to her eyes, engulfing all her senses.
Outside the large glass windows, the gloomy sky seemed like an impenetrable gray curtain, much like Avery’s mood.
These past few days, Angela Scott was also in a bad mood for no apparent reason, and all of Avery’s audition opportunities were gone, like the sky before a storm, warning of some unknown danger slowly approaching.
Angela Scott looked at Avery’s sorrowful appearance and shook her head helplessly, "Avery, I’m sorry, I’m powerless. By rights, the company should have quickly found you various audition opportunities after signing you. Because the director and manager who saw you initially thought you had a great chance, that you would bring considerable profit to the company. They knew you would definitely become popular, that’s why they signed you immediately, but how did it end up like this now?"
Avery’s lowered eyes were like a butterfly trapped in a large spider web, its wings stuck, waiting helplessly for an unknown fate with a strand of fear and a kind of rising anxiety from the bottom of her heart. Before, Lucas had protected her so well, so is she now supposed to suffer all kinds of pain and bitterness alone? 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖
"Avery, did you offend Mr. Hughes?" Angela Scott looked at Avery’s somewhat pale face and, after hesitating for a long time, finally asked this question.
She had gone to the manager to reason with him, but only got the response that this was what the higher-ups wanted.
That meant if Avery didn’t resolve her troubles, she might not have any opportunities this year.
No, she was certain there would be no opportunities.
Such a powerful man who controlled almost all economic lifelines, if he really wanted to make things difficult for Avery, they truly had no way out.
Looking at Avery as graceful as Tina White, suddenly Angela Scott shivered violently, "Avery, did Mr. Hughes acquire M.C for you?"
She had seen a lot in this circle, but this time it really made her head hurt. If it were Joshua Hughes, then Avery had no chance of turning the tables unless Avery was willing to get into Joshua Hughes’s bed.
"No," Avery affirmed.
The relationship between her and Joshua wasn’t really one of offense, right?
It was just that she didn’t want to submit to him that easily, and there were no grievances or offenses, at least in Avery’s mind.
Angela wasn’t so optimistic. She sighed softly, "Avery, sometimes we have to bow to reality, not because we want to degenerate, not because we don’t want to fight with our own power, but because we simply cannot stop all these things from happening. Because we were born in this era, girls always want to succeed as quickly as possible, and their bodies are the easiest and simplest thing they can give, just like doing business, it’s their capital, they use this to exchange for relatively equal opportunities. If one day you have to rely on a man, then Mr. Hughes would certainly be the best choice."
"Scott, he’s unpredictable, and his control desire is too strong. I hate this feeling, as if my fate is being manipulated by him and can only develop the way he wants," Avery thought of those eyes as deep as if they could see into one’s heart, and a sense of fear arose within her.
"But you can’t just sit and wait for death like this. Besides Grant, there are a few big contracts with very considerable prices, Avery, you should go plead with Mr. Hughes," Angela Scott said with a bit of difficulty.
When she decided to bring Avery on, mostly it was because Avery was her good friend; moreover, she believed Avery would definitely become popular in this circle, she could also earn a lot of money, enough to pay off her house loan.
If Avery couldn’t take on any contracts this year, then she’d end up with only a meager base salary, and Angela wouldn’t get her considerable commission; this would be a lose-lose situation.
Hughes Clan Building
Avery looked up at this building. The place she needed to go was the top floor, to find that man and talk with him, but would it be useful?
