Chapter 389


    Charlotte pulled away from Cassius and looked at him warily. "Don''t spout nonsense to Shane. This


    is Cassius, the spokesperson I mentioned to you. Ie here to negotiate with him, not to have an


    affair."


    "If being alone with a male star alone isn''t having an affair, then what is?" Avery crossed his arms


    and stood beside Charlotte.


    He sized Cassius up from head to toe. He thought Cassius was good- looking, but not the most


    attractive. In his mind, Shane was much more handsome than the man in front of him. Even Rick


    was in the same league as him.


    "You''re not as handsome as Rick." Avery assessed, "They have the same style."


    He looked like a teenager when he smiled. He appeared to be gentle andid-back. It was easy to


    tell that he was a good man. However, his facial features were much more delicate than Rick''s, like


    a fine sculpture. Both of them were neck and neck in looks.


    Charlotte''s lips tugged upwards. "If Rick knew you still missed him, he would definitely apologize to


    you crying and screaming while dragging you to get a marriage certificate."


    Averyughed and stood beside Cassius. He reached out and pinched Cassius''s shoulder. Cassius


    flinched in pain and lowered his head. He did not dare cry out in pain.


    "You''re too thin. You can''t even take this pinch," Avery said as he extended his demonic w


    towards Charlotte''s shoulder. Cassius could tell that Avery was exerting the same strength.


    However, Charlotte looked rxed and didn''t even dodge.


    Cassius felt a little embarrassed. His body had always been weak. Otherwise, he wouldn''t have


    chosen to major in agriculture. In this line, people worked in the countryside or farnds. Some


    switched to jobs in environmental sciences. Those were physically demanding, thus he chose to


    open a flower shop and muddle along in life.


    Charlotte pped Avery''s hand away and said, "You''ve been training since you were young, and


    I''ve been with Shane a long time. He''s just a newly discovered celebrity. We''re not the same."


    "He''s still too thin. What if something bad happens to him?" Avery said as he circled Cassius. He


    raised his eyebrows and leaned on him coquettishly, "Young fe, how about I take you home for


    some gym training?"


    Cassius took a step back, his lips trembled. "You — what are you—" He swallowed his words.


    "Cat got your tongue?" Avery returned to his normal personality. He flipped the hair over his


    shoulder and said, "Forget it. It''s boring to tease a cutie like you. Let''s get down to business. Miss


    Charlotte can help you get out of this bind under the premise that you have to speak on your own.


    Do you understand what I mean?"


    "Speak for myself?" Cassius looked at Avery nkly.


    "Yes, just upload a video on your Weibo ount saying what you want to say. We will handle your


    company and team. As for how many fans you would still have after making a statement, it all


    depends on you. Of course, if you want to live stream yourselfmitting suicide, I won''t stop you."


    "Is it that simple? I have too much to say to my fans." Cassius clenched his fists. He was already


    worked up.


    His employers never gave him freedom of speech. As an idol and a star, he never understood why


    couldn''t be candid.


    Avery nodded and said, "It''s that simple. You can say and do whatever you want." "Even if they are


    not in ordance with your interests?" "No matter what you say, it''s in our interests," Charlotte


    reinforced. "But there are a few conditions."


    "What is it?" Cassius could not wait to ask.


    He had too much to say, too many things to do.


    Charlotte curved her lips and answered, "You have an exceptional talent in singing and dancing. As


    for other hobbies, either you give up on them or strive to be the greatest, leaving everyone in the


    industry in awe."


    This request was extremely challenging.


    Never mind singing and dancing, the sheer determination and skill needed to hone his hobby to get


    the approval of the people in the industry were too much.


    Vehicles passed by the window, and the piercing honks outside seemed to urge Cassius to make a


    decision.


    After a long time.


    Only then did he speak carefully, "My hobby is baking. So I''ll talk about it in my video, is that okay?"


    Charlotte and Avery were surprised by his honesty and foolishness. Of course, they were also


    curious about his baking skills. Charlotte and Avery nodded and Cassius took out his phone and


    showed them a video.


    He was definitely adept at baking. He had amassed quite arge following on social media, but he


    had never revealed his face, so there were only about twenty thousand followers.


    "Yourpany doesn''t know about this ount, right?" Avery was pleasantly surprised as if he had


    found a treasure.


    "I don''t know," Cassius answered obediently.


    "Use this ount and post anything you want. But do it tomorrow. Today we''ll help you deal with the


    company''s affairs."


    "Thank you so much." Cassius felt like he was ttened like a pancake.


    "Thank you for your face and your experience. We would have already given up if you were an artist


    with a scandalous past. We just can''t bear to see them bully you." Avery patted his shoulder and


    continued, "Also, go train. In the future, you might need to practice martial arts for a movie role."


    Cassius nodded hard and said, "I understand."


    He sent Cassius away.


    Avery settled himself on the sofa and started ying on his Nintendo Switch. "Aren''t you afraid that


    he''ll tattle by bringing him to my ce?"


    "I have something to ask you."


    "What is it?" Avery''s heart tightened after asking. He continued, "Don''t tell me it''s about Jackson?


    Let me say it first. I don''t know anything."


    "No, I received this message two days ago." Charlotte handed the phone to Avery. "About three to


    four days after returning to Brine, the day before your return."


    "Let me have a look."


    Avery''s pupils constricted when he read it.


    It was in a foreignnguage.


    Charlotte didn''t understand, but he did.


    "What does it say? I wanted to ask Shane, but he was busy these two days, so I came to ask you."


    "Fortunately you didn''t go to him, or he would have erupted." Avery copied the full text and sent it to


    his email, then deleted the original text. "Do you know there are many bizarre websites abroad?"


    "What do you mean?" Charlotte blinked.


    "Yes, those sexually explicit websites."


    Uh.


    Charlotte nodded her head awkwardly.


    What did this have to do with telling Shane?


    "This is an advertisement posted by those websites. It''s a good thing you didn''t click the link


    N?velDrama.Org holds this content.


    below."


    She didn''t understand the foreignnguage so she dared not click on the link. She was a vignt


    person.


    "Disgusting," Charlotte said in distaste. "It''s a good thing I came to ask you. Please help me delete


    it."


    "Of course, it has been deleted. Did you mean that you are d that you didn''t ask Shane?"


    "Of course."


    Charlotte coughed lightly.


    If Shane had found out.


    She might not be able to get out of bed.
