Chapter 88
“May I know which artist you are referring to?” Elspeth could tell he was a pitiful man after listening to what he said.
“It doesn’t matter whom I’m referring to. The point is… you are the cause of my misery!” The man almost lost his mind. At that moment, the only thing he could think of was to grab onto Elspeth and torture her to release his pent-up rage.
“Both you and Yelena are the cause of my misery! Both of you should die!” With that, he charged at them with a dagger in his hand. The quick-witted Elspeth was able to dodge his attack by grabbing his wrist and pushing him onto the ground.
“You!” The startled man looked at her as if he never expected that she could respond that quickly. He even forgot to pick up his dagger from the ground.
“Timothy. I know how upset you feel after being fired, which is why you are venting out your anger at us, but do you think that you’ll feel better after killing us? If I’m dead, there will be numerous people going after you, your wife, and your children. Is that what you want?”
Her firm tone of voice finally made Timothy come to his senses. “How do you know my name?”
“I know that among the female stars who are Yelena’s rivals, Fiona is the most arrogant and well-known. Her popularity is almost on par with Yelena’s and her achievements are all thanks to you, Timothy. Unfortunately. she didn’t cherish it and instead drove you away. I’m sure she’ll regret it in the future.”
Timothy never expected her to utter such words as he was just about to kill her earlier…
“Timothy, if you don’t mind, I can refer you for a decent job.”
“What decent job could you offer me? Fiona made the entire internet blacklist me. She never thought of giving me a way out.” He sounded unsure.
“If I say that I can refer you to the position of director in one of the most famous management companies under Azure Corporation?”
“Are you referring to… Luminous?
Luminous Entertainment was regarded as the most profitable entertainment as of now. Timothy had previously had a hard time in Gleam Entertainment under the Alphascape Group. Although he had popularized countless celebrities under the company, he couldn’t make it to a director since he did not concern himself with the gift- giving culture and came off as someone morally lofty.
But Luminous! Everyone knew how robust it was! Even Gleam Entertainment wasn’t its competitor.
As the President of Azure Corporation, offering someone a job there was a piece of cake.
“D-do you mean it?” Timothy asked in a quavering voice. He never expected that the accomplished lady standing in front of him was that capable.
“Of course. I know Azure’s vice president.” Elspeth winked at him cheekily. Seeing that made Timothy’s heart waver as he wasn’t sure whether he’d be given a second chance in his career.
Before he could thank her, he suddenly looked at her cautiously. “What if you are lying to me?”
“I’ve never lied to anyone. One more thing. I set up my phone before coming here. It will automatically make a report to the police if I couldn’t locate Yelena within half an hour. The choice is yours. You either get a be the director at Luminous and thrive in your career or…” Elspeth glanced at him and paused as if she was implying something.
The options were simple: he could either choose to have a bright future or a dim one where he had to spend his life in hiding. Moreover, he knew that there was no chance he could win against Elspeth in a fight and doing so would be a dead end.
