Chapter 325 Contract Termination

Nicole smiled and nodded before replying to them. “It went really well,” she said. Kylie and Joanna were stunned to hear this. Did she say that it went well?

They thought that they had managed to create the impression that they didn’t like Nicole when they last spoke to Sarah. It doesn’t make sense! Nicole tugged her lips into a lazy smirk when she saw the looks of surprise on the two women’s faces.

“I hired Alice Murphy as the ambassador. How does that sound to you guys?” Nicole asked. Joanna froze when she heard that Nicole had hired Alice as the ambassador. Alice and Sarah were on completely different levels—Alice was a celebrity who had won all sorts of acting awards.

Joanna frowned as she spoke. “Miss Lisa, I know you hope to promote the brand to the locals, and Alice is certainly a popular individual. However, her rates are extremely high, so she’ll definitely exceed our budget. I believe Sarah would be a better option.”

“Sarah’s attitude is bad. I don’t want her to tarnish the name of my brand,” Nicole didn’t bother to sugarcoat her words even when she saw the sincere gaze in Joanna’s eyes.

Joanna might not have expected Nicole to be so biased against Sarah, so she froze for a moment before speaking. “Are you going to make your decision based on your personal opinion? You’ve signed a contract, anyway. We’d have to pay if we don’t use Sarah.”

Nicole was aware of that, but she also knew that there was a line in the contract stating that the contract could be terminated if the artist were to engage in any form of misconduct.

The artist would even have to pay the company double the amount of money. “So what? One way or another, I can’t allow Sarah to be the ambassador for Ann.”

Joanna’s gaze darkened when she saw how stern Nicole was. If Nicole insists on this, the higher-ups in the Gardner Corporation might investigate this matter and get me to take responsibility for it. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Hence, Joanna pretended to speak in a nice tone. “Miss Lisa, why don’t you compromise this time? The company isn’t just going to pay for no reason, you know.”

Kylie couldn’t bear to listen to the conversation any longer, so she tugged on Joanna’s hand. “Just ignore her. If anything happens, she can bear the consequences on her own.”

Kylie had been thinking of ways to teach Nicole a lesson, and the latter so happened to cause this trouble. If Nicole insisted on terminating the contract with Sarah, the higher-ups in the Gardner Corporation were definitely going to be displeased about it.

Nicole tugged her lips into a smile. “I want you to prepare the same contract for Alice. I’ll go over to sign the contract with her in a few days’ time.”

Joanna seemed troubled at first, but she eventually spoke in a dejected tone. “I guess I shouldn’t reject your decision since you’re so firm about it. However, I’ll have you know that the Design Department isn’t responsible for what happens in the future.”

Joanna had intentionally raised her voice to make sure that everyone in the room could hear it. Most of the people there were afraid of the authorities, so they didn’t want to get involved when they heard that Joanna wanted to go against the rules.

Naturally, no one wanted to make a copy of the contract. “Fine. I can do it on my own.” Nicole glared at Joanna for a long while before she spoke.

Joanna scoffed as she thought to herself, Nicole is really too full of herself. She’s just the founder of a tiny brand. I can’t believe she’s so cocky! I’d like to see what the higher-ups say after she signs a

contract with Alice.

“Fine. You were the one who created Ann, so you have full authority over it.” Joanna smiled. Kylie seemed just as eager to support Nicole’s decision.

“I hope you don’t regret this. You’re sounding really arrogant now, but you better don’t go crying and begging Sarah not to terminate the contract after this!”

Nicole narrowed her eyes and stared at Kylie while smiling. “Who do you think you are? Does the Gardner Corporation need an outsider like you to comment on their marketing strategies?”

“How dare you!” Kylie’s expression turned dark. She had just wanted to gloat at Nicole, but she hadn’t expected Nicole to attack her in return.
