Chapter 711 Miscalculation
It was a no-brainer. Lucas and Herman were both in jail and off the table, leaving just Finnian.
Finnian had this sly grin on his face.
Mindy's expression was all kinds of weird, her smile stuck like it was glued on. She'd been in touch with Herman's assistant, Dylan, who kept swearing up and down that Herman was fine. But now? What the heck was going on? Did Dylan lie to her?
Just as Mindy was losing her cool, one of the Howard Group's shareholders piped up, "Alright, everyone, chill out. Even though Lucas and Herman messed up, Dynamic Entertainment's actresses and actors won't be left hanging. After some serious thought, the Howard Group's top brass decided Finnian's gonna be the new president of Dynamic Entertainment."
Finnian got up. Everyone was shocked, except for Natalie.
After all, Finnian was always seen as a throwaway at Dynamic Entertainment. And now, he was the big boss.
With all eyes on him, Finnian gave a speech, basically saying he'd take Dynamic Entertainment Media to the next level and make sure none of the old crap happened again.
Then the Howard Group's shareholder dropped another bomb, "Karen and Heather are appointed as vice presidents of Dynamic Entertainment."
Mindy's eyes nearly popped out of her head. She thought for sure if Karen got one of the VP spots, the other would be hers. She had the experience and the track record to back it up.
Mindy never saw it coming that Heather would snag the other spot.
And it wasn't just Mindy. Most of the actors and actresses were floored, too.
Wendy was a bit taken aback. She glanced at Mindy, whose face was a shade of furious red.
Karen was over the moon; being a VP was good enough for her. But as for Heather, that was a shocker. It seemed like Natalie was someone she didn't want to mess with.
Heather, a young agent with no big wins or credentials at Dynamic Entertainment Media, was suddenly a VP. It was both a huge deal and a massive challenge.
Heather took a deep breath.
In the whole conference room, only Natalie clapped. Then Finnian joined in. Then a few newbies started clapping, too.
Mindy looked at Natalie, both shocked and pissed, her face turning beet red. This meeting was a slap in the face to her dignity.
But at the same time, Mindy felt a new kind of fear towards Natalie.
Natalie looked at Mindy with calm, unbothered eyes. Mindy was freaked out. She'd schemed a lot to become a VP, but she totally underestimated Natalie.
Who would've thought a mistress of Adrian could have such mad skills?
The meeting wrapped up.
In Natalie's lounge.
Mindy couldn't help but knock and walk in. "Natalie."
Mindy was way older than Natalie and had been in the entertainment game for years. Even though she lowered her head and softened her voice to say something nice, she still had that air of arrogance. "I think there might be some misunderstanding between us."
"What misunderstanding?" Natalie shot back.
Mindy wanted to give herself an out, but when Natalie threw that question at her, she was stumped for a moment.
Natalie stayed cool, took a sip of water, and then pulled a script out of her bag.
Mindy said, "I am your agent. Maybe I wasn't super attentive before, but from now on, I'll totally help you boost your career."
Natalie looked up, a smirk forming on her lips, saying, "My agent Heather is the VP of Dynamic Entertainment. So, what do I need your help for?"
