Terminating the Contract
When Daphne arrived at the studio, it was already 7.30PM. The online discussion regarding her and
Theodore reached new heights probably due to the high traffic post-working hours. Thus, its popularity
continued to climb without showing any signs of falling.
There were still many visitors in the studio, so she marched quickly toward Leanna’s office with her
mask on while pressing down on the brim of her cap. She knocked on the door, which quickly opened.
Leanna said, “Come in first.”
Daphne took off her mask and exhaled. “What is it?”
Aidan, who was sitting on the couch, looked up at her. “Did you visit the Pearson Group?”
She didn’t know what to say. How does he know that?
He seemed to have asked the question carelessly since he already knew the answer, so he went on,
“What did they say to you?”
She settled opposite him slowly, not knowing where to start. After several seconds, she finally
answered, “They’ve agreed to give back control of my account so I can personally clear up the rumors.”
He made a noise of assent. “How are you going to do that?”
“The video that was published was only a few seconds long, so I just have to find the complete
version.”
“Are you sure that you can find it?”
Daphne was speechless. Truth was, she wasn’t sure that she would be able to do that. It was clear that
the Pearson Group would never help her deal with this, so she had to depend on herself. If she had
admitted her weakness to Justin back then, she would have had to swallow down everything even if it
hurt her. Besides, she was in the spotlight right now and the situation would become more
disadvantageous for her if this went on. She paused for a while. “There’s video surveillance at the
entrance which might have captured the event.” “If you can think of this, won’t the publisher of the video
consider that too?” She froze and looked up abruptly. “Are you saying that the footage has been dealt
with?” Aidan crossed his long legs and drawled, “Of course.” She couldn’t help but frown while pursing
her lips tightly. She really hadn’t thought that the Pearson Group would go to such lengths. Aidan then
added, “There’s only one way to help you.” “What is it?” she asked. “Officially ask the Pearson Group to
terminate your contract.” Daphne was taken aback upon hearing that. “Terminate my contract?” He
pushed the laptop on the coffee table toward her. “The legal letter has been drafted, and the choice of
whether or not to publish it lies with you.”
She froze to the spot, not comprehending what Aidan was saying at all.
He went on, “You should know why you have been forced to take the spotlight with this. Once there’s a
first time, there will be a second and third time after that.”
He didn’t look like he was joking, so Daphne began to ponder it seriously as well. Back at the entrance
of the president’s office, the attitude and remarks of Justin’s assistant had given her the urge to do so.
Just terminate my contract, then; Do they think I can’t survive without them?
However, she had been signed to the Pearson Group since her debut and had struggled during her
journey up to now. Besides, they offered her good treatment as well, which made her somewhat
unwilling to suddenly cancel her contract.
As if knowing what she was thinking, Aidan reminded her, “You should know that it was me who had
signed you up and gave you all your resources, not the Pearson Group.”
Daphne didn’t know what to say to that. That’s true, though. Having a bad boss once was enough to
last her a lifetime and no matter what Justin was like, the actions of the Pearson Group made her feel
nauseous. “I’ll terminate the contract.”
She took out her phone and keyed in the password the assistant had sent her to log on to Twitter.
After twenty minutes, the topic which exceeded the popularity of ‘Daphne Shirley and Theodore Frost
Suspected of Rekindling Their Old Flame’ was ‘Daphne Shirley Announcing Termination of Contract
With the Pearson Group’.
The topic immediately caused the internet to explode. There had been online analysis from those who
suspected the issue had been used as a shield for the Pearson Group. Daphne hadn’t even cleared up
the rumors regarding her and Theodore but immediately announced her wish to terminate her contract,
which proved the truth of the analysis.
Some felt that it was dishonest of the Pearson Group to do so, but others felt that the video was still
real whether or not the company had done it deliberately. Daphne’s announcement was just her way of
ignoring the most important topic at hand and distracting the public’s attention.
Her fans disagreed with that at once and immediately replied, ‘Please use your brains. Which is more
important? Those rumors or the termination of her contract with the Pearson Group?’
‘Exactly! Besides, she is the top star of the Pearson Group. If she terminates her contract now, she
may have to pay a large sum of money as compensation. It’s not what you all claim it to be! She’s
fighting for her dignity!’
‘In other words, her current move was caused by her dissatisfaction with what the Pearson Group did.
Do you know how many people she has offended by doing this? She may end up being boycotted and
forced into retirement!’
‘Oh, please. There needs to be a limit to your gossip. You will say she’s guilty if she doesn’t say
anything but once she does, you claim that she’s distracting the public’s attention. You just want to
cover your bases.’
There were noises of dissent as well.
‘Judging by the current circumstances, she probably isn’t far from retirement even if she didn’t
announce the termination of her contract with the Pearson Group. This whole debacle is just to trick
fans like you, yet people fell for it.’
‘She’s brave enough to tell them to terminate her contract but not brave enough to explain her
relationship with Theodore. It’s funny that you think she isn’t guilty.’
‘Only her fans would believe dumb theories like that. Her public reputation is destroyed now. I’m not
going to watch any of her shows or use any of the products she endorses!’
Just as both sides were quarreling, Highside Daily posted another tweet containing the full video of
what happened between Daphne and Theodore. It clearly showed that she had been dragged forcefully
by him while several guards came forward to warn him into leaving. She looked afraid and conflicted
the entire time, and there was no sign of them rekindling their romance as the tabloids had claimed.
Everyone had thought things would end by then. However, there were still many who tweeted angrily in
reply to the official tweet from the daily, claiming that it had helped clear things up for Daphne before
this too by saying she hadn’t destroyed Theodore’s relationship with his family, and it was now taking
her side too. Some even jumped to the conclusion that the daily had been paid by Daphne to excuse
her actions.
At the same time, Highside Daily refused to take it lying down and immediately posted a tweet in
response.
‘We’ve always aimed to keep investigating in pursuit of the truth and honest facts. If the truth is now
claimed to be an excuse for someone else’s actions, what’s the use of reporting the news? What are
the victims going to say to that?’
