Bring Your A Game, Mr novel Chapter 839

Chapter 839 I Told You to Scram

“Thank you for your compliment, Miss Jennings.” Knowing that Winona was thinking of her, Elise was glad. “Miss Jennings, Miss White, it’s getting late. It’s time for your makeup.” An assistant came forward to urge them.

Winona and Elise exchanged glances before they went on their own ways. Meanwhile, everything was ready for the director’s team, and they were already in the testing stage, ready to start broadcasting at any moment. As Blitzy Entertainment’s biggest live broadcast that year, the top person in charge, Anthony, personally came to the site.

Seeing that the guests were about to enter, Margaret barged in aggressively from the side door. “Mr. Lowry, I was looking for you everywhere!” Margaret said while closing in on Anthony. When the staff saw her with a murderous aura, they went forward to stop her.

“Let her come over.” Anthony waved his hand and stood up, leisurely straightening his jacket. “Miss Ainsley, what do you want from me?”

“Mr. Lowry, we’ve been working together for a long time. I don’t believe you don’t know that we’ve issued a blacklisting order against Anastasia in the entire industry, right?” Margaret asked sarcastically, her words suggesting that he was being unethical.

“I didn’t know.” Anthony played dumb and said, “I’ve heard about it a little, but you can assume that I know about it. So what?”

“So what? I should be asking you that. Mr. Lowry, are you implying that you want to go against me?”

“Don’t exaggerate things. I’m a businessman, so I’ll promote anyone who has commercial value. Besides, you know that the rumors about Anastasia and Alexander are all over the country, so there’s no reason for me not to seize such a good resource.” Anthony smiled slyly.

“How could you believe in a rumor like that? Anastasia has two children and has been married for a long time!” The more Margaret spoke, the more agitated she became. “She is deliberately clinging to Alexander so that you’d hire her. If you believe it, you’ll really be caught in her trap. She’s a difficult person to control, and if she ruins your show, it’ll be too late for you to regret it. So listen to me—swap her out for someone else while you still can!”

Anthony sneered meaningfully. “I’m afraid that won’t work. Anastasia is the one the investors want to see. If I replace her, won’t I offend them? Miss Ainsley, even if you have a problem with Anastasia, don’t stop me from getting rich.”

“Investors? Who are they?” Margaret was not convinced. “Between me, Edmond, and you, Mr. Lowry, the whole industry is in our hands, so what else is there to be afraid of?”

“We really can’t help but be afraid of this person.” Anthony had just finished speaking when he noticed that Alexander was standing behind Margaret. Immediately, his demeanor changed, and he began to curry favor with him. “Mr. Griffith! You’re here? Why didn’t you say so? I would’ve gone to pick you up myself!”

Margaret shivered with fear and turned around in shock, only to be instantly confronted with Alexander’s dark eyes.

“A-Alexander?” Her voice trembled as she asked, “You really want to promote Anastasia? Did you know that she—”

However, Alexander did not give her the opportunity to finish. “I don’t need to learn about the woman I like from someone else. I advise you not to speak out of line.”

Margaret silently swallowed, her chin slightly lifted up, and her eyes were full of fear.

There was no one in Tissote who didn’t know about Alexander’s reputation, but this was the first time she came into close contact with such a big shot, and even just one sentence from him was enough for her to feel his crushing presence. Clearly, she and Anthony were just clowns in front of magnates like Alexander.

What terrified her even more was that Alexander’s words undoubtedly confirmed the many speculations of the outside world—he was indeed going to pursue Anastasia. Hence, going against Anastasia now was tantamount to going against Alexander and the whole of Smith Co., which was equivalent to throwing straws against the wind.

Thinking of this, she desperately tried to keep herself calm and apologized, “I’m sorry, Mr. Griffith. I didn’t know about your relationship with Anastasia before. I hope you’ll be merciful and spare me for offending you this time.” Margaret squeezed her fist tight, ready to kneel down and beg for forgiveness.
