Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 154

Sophie's eyes shimmered with sincerity as she laid a bank card and two contracts in front of Reece. "This card has $500,000, a personal gift from me. One of these contracts is a new private agreement between us, and the other is your previous contract."

As she spoke, Sophie took Reece's old contract in her hands and, right in front of him, tore it in half.

Reece was stunned.

Sophie continued, "Take your time to look over the new contract. If you don't trust me, feel free to consult a law firm. But if you believe in me, I promise to make you the hottest star within a year."

Reece, studying the earnest expression on Sophie’s face, hesitated briefly. "Why not promote Corin?"

After all, Corin was the current star of Russell Entertainment.

"Corin will soon be out," Sophie stated plainly. But the time wasn't right just yet.

Reece fell silent for a moment, then asked, "What's your condition?"

"Condition?" Sophie looked puzzled as Reece spoke coolly, "Are you expecting me to charm female clients for you, or are you looking for something else?" Reece didn't finish his sentence, his gaze shifting away.

Sophie immediately grasped the implication of Reece's words, her face flushing with indignation. "That's not what I meant. I'm not asking you to handle female clients for me, nor am I looking to keep you."

Reece pursed his lips, then asked, "Then you…?"

"If there has to be a condition," Sophie slowly said, "it's that once you make it big, you can’t leave. You’ll always be my artist."

"In return, if I can't make you a star within a year, you're free to leave without owing me a dime in penalties."

Reece watched Sophie, trying to gauge the truth in her words.
