Chapter 165


    Under the impression that Charmine was convinced, ire then added, “You might be wealthy,


    Charmine, but you know that it‘s all about connections and resources in this modeling industry. It


    involves proper nning such as organizing resources, fan management, marketing, photoshop,


    copyright, and so on.


    “A top supermodel needs at least a team of twenty supporting her. How could you manage it all by


    yourself? Don‘t you think it‘ll be tiring? Once you sign with HollyOak Entertainment, we‘ll sort them all


    out for you.”


    Of course, Charmine knew these things; she was merely wondering about Kelly Mn‘s intentions. If


    memory served right, Kelly Mn was trying to sign her to freeze her fame. Why else would someone


    as bitter as Kelly want to be nice to her?


    “I‘m sorry, but someone‘s managing them for me,” she deadpanned before marching out of the


    restroom.


    ire wanted to run after her, but Charmine was taking the VIP aisle which was only allowed for


    people of high status. ire yelled at Charmine‘s retreating form, “Charmine Jordan, a wise person


    knows when to ept a good offer! I‘ve approached you so many times because I see potential in you.


    Don‘t be so shameless!”


    Charmine scoffed. Disinterested in even entertaining a delusional woman, she continued to walk


    toward her table when she crossed paths with a rotund man.


    The man looked at her as if he struck gold. “Charmine Jordan! You‘re here? I‘ve been trying to reach


    out to you. Nice to meet you.” He handed his name card to her, and Charmine merely eyed the item


    carefully. Stated on the card was his status: Chief Executive Officer of Fortune Entertainment, Hubert


    Zane.


    Was this another entertainmentpany?


    Instead of epting the card, Charmine merely asked,“ What?”


    “Here’s the thing. Didn‘t you enter the entertainment industry recently? We‘d like to sign you. I think we


    met for a reason! You‘re a diamond boss, right? I made my fortune with a mine too, but it was a coal


    mine.”


    Hubert then continued, rather proudly as he said, “My worth is around fifty billion at the moment. I


    invested and established Fortune Entertainment, a leading entertainmentpany in the country. Do


    you know the famous singer fromst year, Xander... something? And the famous singer, Nevil


    something...? They’re all signed by mypany!”


    The name of thepany seemed to ring a bell. She remembered Eric mentioning it to him, something


    along the lines of HollyOak Entertainment ranking the first and Fortune Entertainment ranking the


    second. HollyOak was good at packaging the image of the celebrity, while Fortune was good a t


    throwing money to make the celebrity famous.” Of course, by giving out money, they expected the


    celebrities t o bring back handsome profits. They would arrange many private activities for their


    celebrities, and rumor had it that some female actresses earned eight figures in a night. Lesser known


    rumors included Hubert‘s main goal in establishing thispany was to pick up girls...


    Hubert took Charmine‘s silence as a non–verbal consideration. He patted her shoulder with smiling


    eyes. “Charmine, if you sign with us, I‘ll give you all of the best resources in thepany. You‘ll be able


    to pick any resource that you fancy, and we can also negotiate the dividends. Just give me a number!”


    Charmine spared a disinterested nce at the hand on her shoulder. Unfazed, she said calmly, “Mr.


    Zane is very convincing, but what can I do? I bumped into ire Eastly earlier, the manager of public


    rtions at HollyOak Entertainment. She wanted to sign me and said what you‘ve said too. I‘m now in


    a difficult situation.”


    This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.


    “What? ire Eastly is here? Where‘s she?” Hubert scowled instantly. Fortune and HollyOwk were


    enemies whopeted fiercely for resources and prizes. HollyOak signed someone Fortune wanted to


    have under them, and now it was Charmine?


    Charmine pointed toward the restroom. “There. She even said herpany is the best in the industry,


    that Fortune was nowhere close to them, things like that.”


    “Damn it! Wait for me here, I need to sort this out.” Hubert strode toward the direction she pointed


    at. ire was still standing at the same spot sending a message to Kelly Mn. Suddenly, she heard


    someone yelling, “ire Eastly, what‘s wrong with you?!”
