Chapter 954
The five artists fell silent.
There was no way that they could reveal the truth.
Ultimately, it was their agent, Lucius, who spoke up. “To be honest, Ms. Hinton, yourpany can
longer amodate them. They want to take a step further and expand their respective careers. You
don’t intend to strip them off of their livelihood, do you?”
Lacey sighed.
Trust Media had always belonged to the Williams family. All of these artists were signed with them too.
Due to Zeke’s awkward rtionship with the Williams family, Lacey had anticipated that the artists
would eventually leave.
She just did not expect it to happen this quickly.
“Alright then,” she responded. “Since you’ve found yourselves a better path, I’m not going to stop you. I
wish you all the best.”
With that, she signed their withdrawal agreements.
The five artists sighed with relief.
They were initially worried that Lacey would demandpensation since they had vited their
contracts.
This woman is such a halfwit.
Upon that thought, Lucius left, along with the artists.
He stopped in his tracks, as he walked past Mia Young, a celebrity who had just made it big.

“I’d like to cordially invite you to join us in leaving thepany, Ms. Young,” he suggested with an
ambiguous smile. “Would you happen to be interested?”
Had he suggested this earlier, Mia would have excitedly taken him up on his offer.
After all, Lucius was a top agent in the entertainment industry, who had many resources within his
grasps.
He could have easily made Mia famous all over the entire region.
Unfortunately, Trust Media was in a difficult situation. In addition to that, she was indebted to Zeke.
How could she abandon Trust Media at such a time?
“Sorry, but I think that Trust Media suits me better,” she answered, shaking her head.
Lucius instantly appeared displeased. This was the first time an artist had turned him down.
“You should give it some thought, Ms. Young,” he sneered. “Thispany’s going to be mine soon.
When that happens, you’ll be my employee. Those whom I take by force will certainly be treated
differently from those who’ve voluntarily chosen to seek shelter with me.”
Upon saying that, he walked away with augh.
Lacey froze momentarily.
What did he mean by hisst sentence?
Thepany’s going to be his soon?
Mia walked up and assured her, “Don’t be upset, Ms. Hinton. I know a lot of people in the industry. I can
introduce them to Trust Media.”
Lacey smiled bitterly. “Thank you so much for believing in me and staying with us, Ms. Young. Don’t
worry. We’ll never mistreat you in any way.”
Lacey thought that the entire ordeal was over.
Unbeknownst to her, this was simply the beginning.
By evening, Lucius and the five artists who had just left suddenly held a press conference.
In the conference, they criticized Trust Media for mismanaging ounts and pocketingmercial
fees.
They also imed that their new boss, Zeke Williams, had tried to tie them down with unwritten rules.
Because they refused to give in, Zeke threatened to ‘ban them from the entire industry’.
Left with no other choice, they could only resort to leaving Trust Media and starting afresh elsewhere.
The news spread like wildfire amongst the entertainment industry and fanbases.
Everyone began to condemn Trust Media, as they started to probe into the incident.
Many fans even went the extra mile of throwing bricks and turd at thepany building.
With that, Trust Media was instantly thrust, into its most unprecedented crisis.
Lacey was beyond exasperated.
This is simply too much!
They’re clearly talking crap about us, defaming our name on purpose.
Mismanaging ounts and pocketingmercial feels? What is all this nonsense?
Unwritten rules by Zeke?
Zeke probably wouldn’t do such a thing.
