The Silent Wife novel (Rachel and Justin) novel Chapter 584

“You’re the brand owner?” Leroy’s brows knitted as his eyes searched for his manager. “What’s going on?”

Standing in the corner, Emmett, the man he was looking for, avoided eye contact.

Obviously, the manager knew it all the time, but chose not to tell him, which meant the manager had betrayed him.

As soon as he started the relationship with Jolly, Leroy rectified the works received by his management team by terminating all the deals that were related to Sutton Corporation and declaring he wouldn’t cooperate with them in the future.

“I went through a lot of trouble to invite an A-lister like you for the shooting.” Ryan rose to his feet behind the cameras. His stance was around 190 centimeters, which was taller than Leroy by a few inches and it gave him a strong aura.

Even though Leroy was a famous star, he was nothing compared to a capitalist like Ryan. After all, he was just a pawn on someone else’s chessboard.

The atmosphere went tense at their exchange. Even the prop masters stopped their work as they kept stealing glances at the two and whispered, “What happened?”

“Are you blind? Leroy offended President Sutton.”

“Then, why did President Sutton ask him to become the spokesperson?”

“You’re too naive! President Sutton needs to stay in touch with Leroy to intimidate and manipulate him!”

Their discussion turned inaudible.

It was clear that Ryan was trying to intimidate him. Leroy wasn’t a newbie to the work environment, so he had guessed Ryan’s intention. “President Sutton, you should be frank. You don’t need to drag the others into our business. For them, time is money.”

“I see. You’re always trying to be the nice guy.” Ryan sneered. “That’s what I hate the most about you. You always try to be considerate, but you’re sugar-coating your wicked lies.”

“I don’t care about your opinion. You can keep them to yourself. I guess you aren’t here only to be sarcastic today after you set me up, am I right?”

“I won’t ask the obvious if I was you.” Ryan glared at Leroy with a cold look in his eyes as he spoke his mind. “As long as you’re in a relationship with Jolly, what happened today will repeat again. What do you think?”

Leroy clenched his fists at his side. No matter what he did, Ryan only finds me for one reason, which is Jolly.

Taking Burton Group and Hudson Pharmaceuticals as examples, many enterprises were caught in turmoil in the past year. Among them, Sutton Corporation seized the opportunity to expand fast and ended up having the highest market value.

It can be said that Ryan could decide whether Leroy could continue his career in the entertainment industry or get banned from it for good. In only a night, Leroy would fall from the top into the pit, along with in debt of the liquidated damages.

Leroy laughed bitterly as he began with the resignation, “In order to keep my career, I must leave Riverdale as you like, don’t I?”

Before Ryan could answer, another voice from the entrance interrupted them. “Don’t you dare!”

“Jolly.” He addressed her before his surprised look turned into a smile as he watched her walking toward him with anger.

“It isn’t the time to laugh!” Jolly sent him daggers. “You want to leave Riverdale to keep your career? What about me?”

“I didn’t plan to. I’m just asking.”

“You can’t even try to ask! Watch out, I’ll get even with you later!” As she finished her words, she dragged him to stand behind her domineeringly before she turned to Ryan.
