Chapter 273 Mr. Vittorio's Dominance
Terminate her contract?
If he remembered correctly, Anna really enjoyed her work in live streaming, and she was indeed capable.
The last time she live streamed, she had put in a lot of effort and even told him herself that she wanted to make a career for herself, but now she was talking about terminating her contract?
His large hand returned to normal after signing his name on the document, then he asked, "What is her reason?"
Sure enough, Mr. Vittorio had indeed recognized Miss Stefanelli when he went to inspect the company.
Little Tony lowered his head, "The person in charge said there said she gave no reason; he only stated that Miss Stefanelli seemed very determined. She's waiting at the company now and said she was ready to leave tonight."
Leave tonight?
Giorgio raised an eyebrow as his eyes darkened in thought.
He and Anna had already drawn a clear line, so her leaving had nothing to do with him. It was just...
Charlie still needed her and Penny.
Yes, she couldn't leave temporarily.
"Tell her that the company currently doesn't allow any artists to terminate their contracts."
Hmm...
‘Is Mr. Vittorio being a little too overbearing with this approach?’ Little Tony thought to himself since he couldn’t didn't dare say it out loud.
He could only nod, "Alright. I'll inform the person in charge."
Meanwhile, in the office.
Anna and Sara sat on the sofa, anxiously waiting feedback.
Before making the decision to leave, she felt reluctant and hesitant.
But once she actually mentioned leaving, she became eager to do so. She seemed to finally see her situation clearly.
Only by leaving could she finally return to square one and restore peace to her life.
Ringing...
The phone on the desk rang.
The person in charge picked up the phone, "Hello. Oh? Okay... Alright..."
"Okay, understood."
After a brief conversation, the call was quickly ended.
Anxious, Anna asked, "So? Was that a call from the higher ups? What did the boss say?"
The person in charge looked at her, speaking crisply, "The boss said, for now, no artist is allowed to terminate their contract. You can go now."
What?
No artist was allowed to terminate their contract? What kind of rule was that?
"I can compensate the company with twenty million! Why can't I terminate my contract?" Anna stood up, her face showing a mix of anxiety and confusion.
The person in charge shrugged, "I don't know why. If you have any objections, you can go ask the boss yourself."
Ask the boss?
She didn't even know who the boss was.
Anna was angry.
Sara held her back and said to the person in charge, "The terms in the contract are clearly stated. If you disagree, we can still terminate forcibly, or we can even get a lawyer involved. I believe a big company like DuoNyx Entertainment wouldn't want any disputes that could tarnish its image, right?"
Her calm response made perfect sense.
Upon hearing this, Anna finally found her confidence, "Yes, we can sue."
The person in charge spoke slowly, "Miss Nana, Assistant Sara, you can proceed and get a lawyer involved if you want, but let me kindly remind you, the company has the final say in how the contract is interpretated."
This one sentence could imply so much; it gave the company freedom to do whatever they pleased in such situations.
This... was just a shady company!
Anna was both angry and speechless.
Why didn't she carefully read the contract before signing with such a tyrannical company?
"What should we do now? Since we can't terminate my contract, should we continue to stay in the company?” Anna asked.
Even if she agreed, Katherine wouldn't agree.
Sara was contemplating what they should do next to.
Suddenly, Sara walked directly to the person in charge, grabbed his arm, and softened her expression, "Sir, it was my fault before. Please forgive, forget, and be magnanimous. Don't hold it against me.
Actually... Nana wants to terminate her contract because of reasons beyond her control."
"Huh? What reasons?" The person in charge asked curiously.
Sara sniffed and began a melodramatic performance, "Nana... her first love is coming back home.
Four years ago, she and her first love were deeply in love, but a sudden accident separated them. She was lying in the hospital, unaware of his departure. They didn't even get to see each other for the last time.
For the next four years, they didn't meet and didn’t hear a word from each other. Our Nana is a person of deep feelings and loyalty. For the past few years, day and night, she has been thinking about him, unable to eat or sleep well. Look at how thin she is, all because she misses her first love."
At this point, she deliberately pulled Anna over, gestured to Anna's slender arms, and then continued sorrowfully, "Now, her first love is finally coming back! They finally have a chance to continue their relationship.
Unfortunately, the tragedy is, his family has arranged for him to get married! If Nana doesn't show up, he will marry another girl!
Please, you are a good person; let her go home and see that boy; otherwise I'm afraid she will miss out again and have to jump from the rooftop of DuoNyx Entertainment..."
Tears and emotions filled the air.
Even the air seemed desolate.
The person in charge sympathetically said, "That is indeed pitiful; it's the 21st century, and people are still experiencing such melodramatic soap opera plots."
Seeing an opportunity, Sara immediately looked at him expectantly, "Exactly, please, be kind and fulfill her wish. It's in the contract."
Unexpectedly, the person in charge's expression changed, "I can't make that decision. I simply expressed sympathy; I’m not necessarily agreeing to terminate her contract."
Sara and Anna were stunned.
If that was the case, what was the point of Sara’s performance?
They immediately stopped their 'touching' performance, got up, and left.
"What should we do?" Back in the room, Sara looked troubled.
Thinking for a moment, she suddenly said, "Katherine is so capable; she can definitely solve this! Besides, if she wants you to leave, she must have a way."
Katherine understood this logic and had also thought about it.
But that would expose her live streaming account, which would not be beneficial for future earnings. That was something she didn't want.
"I don't want her to know about my live streaming, let's think of another way."
"Well... how about finding Mr. Vittorio? For Charlie's sake, he would help; it's easy for him too."
Anna least wanted to see Giorgio. What would be the point of her avoiding him if she then actively sought him out?
Seeing her silence, Sara understood the answer and said, "If all else fails, just go see Mr. Dalio. It's also a simple matter for Mr. Dalio."
As she finished speaking.
'Ding dong ding~~'
The phone rang.
It was Simon.
Excitedly, Sara said, "He's arrived just in time. Anna, you answer."
As she spoke, she had already clicked answer and placed the phone on Anna's ear.
Anna didn't want to answer.
Reluctantly, she pursed her lips and squeezed out, "Hello, Mr. Dalio."
There was a few seconds of silence on the other end of the phone.
Three full seconds passed before a voice came through.
But, it wasn't Simon's voice, it was — Mirlinda's.
"Come over to Gulfview Residences, now."
What? What?
Come over?
Come over for what?
