Contract Marriage: Let's Make It Real, Mrs. Sterling!
Chapter 113: Terminating the Contract with My Former Company
CHAPTER 113: TERMINATING THE CONTRACT WITH MY FORMER COMPANY
Mia Sutton was holding her phone, video chatting with her mom: "Mom, don’t worry, I’ll bring him home in a while, then you can meet him. Really, he’s a very nice person, takes great care of me, so please don’t worry."
After talking for a long time, Mia finally hung up, lay on the bed, and stared at the ceiling above, her shiny almond-shaped eyes blinking.
It seems her mom definitely won’t be at ease until she sees him in person.
Now they’ve indeed accepted the fact that she has a boyfriend, but the problem is, it’s not just any boyfriend; this one’s got a marriage license, what to do!!!
Mia suddenly felt like playing dead, let her be an ostrich for a while.
Not long after, the phone next to her pillow rang. Mia lazily stretched out her hand, dragged the phone over, and answered it without even looking at who was calling, given that the calls have indeed been quite frequent these days.
"Hello?"
The other person quickly spoke after hearing her voice, saying: "Hello, is this Miss Sutton?"
Mia said "Mm".
"Hello, Miss Sutton, I’m sorry to call you directly, but since you don’t have a talent agency, I had no choice but to call you."
Speaking of the talent agency issue, it all started after the first episode of the performance show aired.
Back then, Jensen Sterling and Nolan Sinclair invited Mia Sutton to join their company on the spot. This not only shook the netizens, but also shocked Mia’s original company.
Kevin Holt was dumbfounded at the time. Two top-notch companies in the industry were trying to poach someone from their small company, and that person was Mia Sutton, an obscure C-lister.
Kevin Holt hadn’t paid any attention to Mia after she appeared on the show; after all, Mia was just a nobody at the time. Why would he waste his time on a C-lister?
Instead of that, it was better to train some new talent.
When the company leaders asked him about it, he was genuinely puzzled. It wasn’t until later that he realized the C-lister he thought he knew had actually become number one in a highly popular variety show, "Shining Stars".
The higher-ups gave a strict order: They must ensure Mia Sutton stays with the company. Absolutely can’t let her switch companies.
Anyone could see that Mia was going to be popular. As long as she became famous, she’d be the company’s cash cow. There’s no way the company would let such a person go.
Kevin Holt immediately called Mia, even his tone changed.
As arrogant as he used to be, now he was that humble.
Not for anything else, but because the contract Mia Sutton signed with the company was about to expire. If they didn’t renew it, they might really lose this cash cow.
In order to keep Mia Sutton, Kevin Holt went all out, practically overpromising the future plans for Mia.
But Mia Sutton simply replied, "Do you think you can compare to Prosperity Group or Shining Dawn?" and just shut him up.
Too lazy to waste time with such a person, Mia simply hung up the call. Later, she was still frequently called, so she just handed the issue over to her dad.
The earlier version of her written by the author was brainless, clearly having such an influential dad but not using him, stubbornly fighting with her family over Martin Wright — it was downright foolish!
How her dad handled it in the end, Mia didn’t know. Anyway, the contract termination papers arrived the next day.
After looking it over, Mia quickly signed it, not even waiting for the contract to expire.
And now, this is the current situation.
Without a company, she has to handle everything herself — so annoying~
