"Now introducing the ambassador of our medicine, Zabrina Yalden!"
On the site of the press conference, the host had already commenced the ceremony.
"Zabrina, hurry up and go onstage!" Hadley urged her.
Zabrina glanced at Chuck with her beautiful eyes as if she was apologizing. She did not expect Hadley to be so disrespectful to Chuck.
Chuck simply shrugged and said, "It's your turn."
"Yes." Then, Zabrina began to ascend the stage while all eyes were fixated on her.
"Which company are you from?" As soon as Zabrina left, Hadley questioned.
"Oh, I'm not from any company!" replied Chuck.
"You're not from any company yet you're talking about making a big investment? You must be a scammer. I've seen too many people like you. Go lie to someone else and stay away from Zabrina in the future! If I see you talking nonsense again, I'll get someone to deal with you!" Hadley spat in annoyance.
He refused to be civil to a swindler like Chuck.
"You'll get someone to deal with me?" Chuck echoed indifferently.
"That's right, you'd better behave appropriately... Ah! Hello, Miss Lane!" Just then, Hadley spotted Yolanda coming down from above.
He smiled and greeted her, paying Chuck no attention at all.
She was a big shot!
As Zabrina's agent, he knew that Yolanda had managed several industries as a manager. Her boss was also the investor of Zabrina's last movie.
She was incredibly rich!
The endorsement allowance for the ambassador of the medicine was no small sum. As the pharmaceutical company was a big client who had cooperated with them for a long time, he could not offend her.
"Hello!" Yolanda greeted casually.
Hadley wanted to get on her good side. But when he tried to, Yolanda stopped him, saying, "Hold on!"
"Okay!" Hadley responded simply, thinking that Yolanda had something else to do!
To his surprise, Yolanda approached Chuck.
"You only have to go onstage for a while later. After all, you're the boss. You can say whatever you want and it'll be fine," Yolanda suggested.
A press conference was very important!
It would be fine to let everyone know the boss behind the scenes.
"I guess I still count as one!" Chuck mused.
He was not used to being under the spotlight, or being on the covers of newspapers and the media. It was something Chuck did not enjoy.
So, on such an occasion, it was enough for Yolanda to go onstage on behalf of him.
"Alright." What else could Yolanda do?
Chuck had always kept a low profile.
"Miss Lane, he... He's the boss?" Hadley overheard their conversation.
His face had turned a little pale.
It turned out that Chuck was the real big shot.
"Yes, that's right. This is my boss, Chuck. What's the matter?" Yolanda enquired.
"Nothing." Hadley's face took on an unpleasant expression. While his mouth was wearing a smile, it was uglier than a grimace.
"Mr. Cannon, I'm sorry about earlier. I thought..."
How could he have known that such a big shot would keep such a low profile?
"Oh. Do you want to teach someone like me from a small movie company a lesson?" Chuck responded nonchalantly.
"It's not like that, Mr. Cannon. Listen, I just..." Hadley's smile grew more unsightly.
Only then did Yolanda understand. Her expression was no longer kind. "Hadley, my boss, Chuck invested in Zabrina's film. The product she's endorsing now is the product from Chuck's pharmaceutical factory. After cooperating twice, it seems that you are disinterested in cooperating any longer?"
"No, I didn't mean that!" Hadley's face turned pale.
If the contract was terminated because of him, how could he, a small agent, handle the responsibility?
"Then what do you mean? You even wanted to teach my boss a lesson? Hmph. Today, I'll call the Big Boss of your agency!" Yolanda warned coldly.
"No! Miss Lane! Mr. Cannon!" Hadley's tears leaked out from the corners of his eyes.
He was in immense fear. If Big Boss found out about this, he would definitely lose his job as a manager!
"It's too late!" Yolanda decided bluntly.
Hadley's face was pale and his heart was filled with despair!
Meanwhile, Chuck and Yolanda continued to watch. The whole press conference turned out to be very successful!
