Chapter 34
Chapter 34 Good Boss
Then this time, Starry Sea Entertainment would have to amaze the entire world.
Sylvia couldn’t pull herself together no matter how hard she tried. Because she was only a nobody, she
only earned a ce in Prosperity Global because of her beautiful voice.
This time, she had spared no effort to get a spot in the talent show. She knew that Le, due to
nepotism, would definitely make things difficult for people who were better than her. Therefore, Sylvia
had beenying, low and never dared to steal Le’s thunder.
If not for the fact that Le was forced to leave the show by Lamont, Sylvia definitely wouldn’t have
taken this contest seriously.
Now that she had finally gotten into the final round, but….
All her efforts suddenly became pointless at thest minute, and all her cautiousness now turned into
grievances and resentment.
Although Sylvia wasn’t her employee, Amelie felt distressed when she saw Sylvia like this. She had an
inexplicable urge to do something for Sylvia.
Just as Amelie was lost in thought, Sylvia got up.
People that had nothing were the bravest.
At this time, Sylvia was fearless. She wrapped the shawl around herself tightly, and her voice was small
but firm.
“Mr. Byron, Ms. Aylward, I want to resign. From now on, I am no longer an artist of yourpany. So
you no longer
have to worry that I will seduce you. Is it OK?”
Le, who was pushed to the ground by Lamont, had a smug look on her face. She was about to open
her mouth and say yes, but Lamont spoke first.
“No.”

“Why?” Le and Sylvia said at the same time, but the former was angry, while thetter was tired and
desperate.
“Sylvia, you haven’t forgotten the contract you signed before joining thepany, have you?”
The contract!
Sylvia’s pupils suddenly constricted.
Prosperity Global was famous for its overly unfair contracts. Those who passed all their tests had to
work unconditionally for thepany for an agreed period of time. The artists who left thepany
before the contract expired had to pay a sky–high penalty.
Generally, the artists would not choose to break the contract unless they really couldn’t stand it any
longer.
There were two reasons. Prosperity Global was a bigpany in the show biz. It had top–notch
resources and offered the best training. No one was willing to give up on such a good opportunity.
Secondly, and most importantly… In fact, the pay that the artists could get was terribly little.
The split was usually 30/70 between the artist and thepany. And the 30 percent had been
deducted a lot by others before they got to the artists. In addition, mostpanies did not allow artists
to have side jobs, so it was impossible to make extra cash.
The artists needed to take all these things into consideration. The money an artist made in ten years
might be less Chapter 34 Soad Boss
than that an ordinary white–cor worker earned in five years.
Because she was too emotional just now, Sylvia suddenly forgot about the penalty thing
At this time, her bubble suddenly burst, and her spirits drooped like a deted ball.
“Ha, you look destitute and certainly can’t afford the penalty…” Le wanted to say something more,
but she shut her mouth after being red at by Lamont. However, she did not forget to shoot Sylvia a
fierce nce.
It was as it Le was warning Sylvia that she had plenty of ways to “fix” her in the remaining time.
Amelie saw clearly that Le hadn’t changed at all and was sick as ever.
“Sylvia, do you want to join ourpany?”
When these words came out, not only Sylvia but even Lamont was also stunned.
“What do you mean by this?”
Lamont put himself between Sylvia and Amelie. “She is ours. Are you trying to poach her from us?”
Amelie was really bold. She was not content with half of his wealth, and now she was actually poaching
his people in front of him?
She was getting more and more repulsive.
However, Amelie was not afraid of his gaze at all and stared straight at him.
Although she had not slept for the whole night, she still looked stunning.
“That’s right. I’m poaching your people,” Amelie smiled brightly. Her wide smile made Lamont’s heart
skip a beat. “A capable man deserves a good boss. Sylvia should not be trapped by your unfair
contract. She deserves a better future.”
“Ha, what about her penalty? Do you think Starry Sea Entertainment can afford it? You’re making a fool
of yourself.”
Le would not miss any opportunity to mock Amelie.
“I will pay for it.”
Amelie replied calmly, “Starry Sea Entertainment will pay the penalty that Sylvia owes you. I just want
her.”
“Ms. Mullen…” Sylvia could not believe her ears. She had only worked for Prosperity Global for three
years and was seven years away from the expiry date. The penalty must be unimaginably high. But
now, Amelie was actually willing to pay it for her.
As if Amelie knew what Sylvia was going to say, Amelie turned around and gave Sylvia a faint smile.
“You are very outstanding and are worth me investing in you.”
In the semi–final and the matches before it, Amelie had noticed this unprepossessing girl.
Whether it was together or solo, Sylvia performed with great ease. What surprised Amelie the most
was that Sylvia’s voice was of the same style as Rohan’s. If the two could work together, they would
definitely be able to create better work.
At that time, Amelie felt a little pitiful that Sylvia was Prosperity Global’s artist. If it was some other
company, Amelie would give anything to make this hidden talent hers. Luckily, she got her chance
today.
Lamont looked at her coldly. Amelie was more dazzling than before both in terms of temperament and
ability.
He could not help but think back to the days when he was so sick of her.
Why did he hate her at that time? Maybe it was because she was too unambitious or because she was
too obedient and could never give him surprises.
He wouldn’t like such a boring woman.
“Alright, I’ll contact the finance department right now and see how much money you’ll have to pay for
her.” As he spoke, he took out his phone.
Le panicked. She still had a bit of resentment to take out on Sylvia. How could they let her go so
easily?
“Lamont, you aren’t really going to let her go, are you?”
She tugged at Lamont’s sleeve like a spoiled child but was shaken off.
“Don’t touch me.”
His expression seemed to tell that she was a piece of dog shit.
In fact, he felt somewhat sorry for Sylvia. If he hadn’t barged into Sylvia’s room, Le wouldn’t have
misjudged their rtionship and hit Sylvia like a shrew.
