Chapter 155
“Who’s the artist you’re talking about?” Pearl pretty much understood who he was referring to and felt
sorry
for him.
“Hah, that’s not important. What’s important is all of this… only happened because of you!”
The man had lost all sense of reason, consumed by his desire to capture Pearl and exact his revenge.
“You and Esther Sanders are both the root of evil and deserve to die!” He drew a knife and lunged at
Pearl, but she quickly grabbed his wrist, using her strength to push him aside and send him sprawling
to the floor.
“You b*tch!” The man wasn’t expecting Pearl to be so agile, so he was taken by surprise and forgot to
pick up his knife.

on us, but do you think killing us would make you feel better? People would come after you upon my
death, and your wife and children would be bullied. Is that what you want?”
Pearl’s rational words seemed to bring Clem back to his senses. “How do you know my name?”
Pearl held back a chuckle. “All I know is that the only star who rivaled Esther’s fame was Yvonne Fuller.
She gained her fame because of you. Unfortunately, she failed to appreciate you and terminated your
employment. I’m sure she’ll regret that decision.”
Clem was taken aback by Pearl’s unexpected revelation. Just moments ago, he had been attempting to
take
her life.
“Clem, if you don’t mind, I can refer you to a better company.”
Clem sounded defeated as he replied, “But Yvonne made sure I was blacklisted everywhere and left
me with no options. How could you change that?”
“What if I tell you I can introduce you to a decent managerial role for a talent agency under the
Cerubleu group?”
Clem’s eyes went wide. “You’re talking about… Brilliance Entertainment?”
Brilliance Entertainment was renowned in the entertainment industry, vastly superior to Polaris
Entertainment, which was under Lawson Enterprise. He had faced numerous challenges at Polaris,
failing to advance to a true managerial role due to his aversion to bootlicking.
However, Brilliance Entertainment was on a completely different level, and everyone recognized their
supremacy, even overshadowing Polaris.
“Yes, a lot of award-winning actors are signed with Brilliance. I will personally vouch for you, and you
can expect to join them by tomorrow.”
As Cerubleu’s president, Pearl had the influence to make such arrangements.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“R-Really?” Clem’s voice started shaking, astounded that this young woman possessed such power.
“Absolutely. I am Cerubleu’s vice president,” Pearl affirmed with a playful wink.
Clemn gave in. Would this really be the chance for him to start anew?

He almost thanked her, but he started looking cautious. “What if you’re just lying to me?”
H
“I never lie. Besides, I’ve set my phone to alert the police if I don’t find Esther within half an hour. You
have two choices: embrace a promising future as a manager at Brilliance and shine in the career you
love, or…’ Pearl trailed off, leaving the alternative unspoken.
It was a simple decision. Given their circumstances, he had only one path to choose.
“Your children need their father, don’t they, Mister Gutor?”
Pearl smiled, her straightforward question dismantling his remaining defenses.
