Chapter 435 Losses
Lucia frowned, and she immediately had a bad feeling about this.
Lion Media was just registered by Bishop not long ago, from site selection to recruitment, every step Bishop took was extremely high-profile, recruiting with great fanfare, and also invested a lot of money.
Seeing that Nicole wasn't moving, Bishop said nonchalantly, "What are you waiting for, Nicole?"
Nicole's body stiffened and immediately walked over.
Lucia took a deep breath, not understanding what was going on, she hurriedly followed, stopped Nicole, looked at Bishop and asked, "President Adams, Nicole also signed a contract with us, now she is our actress, she still has to stay here before the shooting ended."
Hearing her say that, Bishop hooked his lips, his eyes a flash of coldness appeared in his eyes.
"I wonder what Ms.Mitchell has got to keep her?"
Lucia didn't know what to say.She tried her best, and was about to come up with something to say.
That was when two black cars drove over.
The two cars parked at the front and back of the RV.
The door of the car was pushed open, a cold-faced man got off, and walked towards Lucia with his long legs.
He was wearing a black suit and was emitting a domineering aura.
At the same time, Burton and several subordinates in suits got off the car together.
They followed behind August.
The whole group walked towards Lucia domineeringly.
August walked up with wide steps, automatically ignoring the man in the wheelchair, and walked directly in front of Lucia and Nicole, asking in a light voice, "What's wrong?"
The man descended from the sky, like an angel, which made the originally somewhat panicked Lucia suddenly feel much more at ease.
She took a deep breath, warmth welled up in her heart, and she said softly, "This President Adams suddenly came over, saying that Nicole is his artist and wants to take her away, but Nicole had already signed a contract with us." This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
At that, August's face did not change.
He turned to look at Bishop sitting in the wheelchair, but said nothing.
The corner of Bishop's mouth curved into a smile.
He raised his hand and waved, the men next to him immediately presented a document and handed it to August.
Even Lucia could see the words written on the cover of the contract.It was contract between Nicole and Lion Media.
She took a look at August's lack of intention to take it, and hastily took the initiative to reach out her hand and took the contract, turning to the last signature, which was indeed Nicole's signature and a red fingerprint.
She turned her head to look at Nicole and asked, "Is this the contract you signed with them?"
Nicole nodded.
"Yes, after signing the contract, I didn't have anything to do when I signed the contract.That was when Mr.Black's assistant asked me to come over here to audition for a scene.He said it was to shoot a short film, and it can fill my gap, so I came."
Lucia smiled.
She understood what was going on, so she flicked through the document, quickly browsed through it, and then raised her head to look at Bishop.
"President Adams, there is no provision on this that does not allow its artists to take outside jobs, and Nicole has nothing to do at the moment, there should be no problem, right?"
Bishop laughed lightly.
"Who said that she has nothing to do, there is a drama and I appointed her as the female lead, her current behavior is accepting more than one job at one time."
Without waiting for Lucia to speak, Nicole next to her said in surprise, "Female lead, when did that happen?"
After she signed a contract with Lion Media, she had always been a nobody.
She didn't even get a supporting role, not to mention a female lead role.
Bishop said indifferently, "It happened this morning.I said so myself.Now you know?"
Hearing him say this, the crowd was a little surprised.
Bishop was obviously deliberately provoking, because Nicole came over to shoot a short film of public welfare by Lion Group, so he gave her a female lead role to make things difficult for Nicole.
He wanted to take Nicole away from them and also create some negative comments for Lion Group.
Lucia was a little annoyed.
"President Adams, what you're doing is unreasonable, right?"
Bishop laughed and said arrogantly, "What do you mean? She is my artist, I can decide when I give a role, right? Why do I have to report to you?"
Those words weren't nice, but there wasn't nothing Lucia could say to retort.
August's face was already dark and he looked at Bishop coldly.
"So, you did this on purpose, didn't you?"
Bishop said calmly, "The Lion Group is trying to steal my artist.
If you negotiate with me nicely, I might have agreed, but you're now forcing my artist to take more than one job at one time, I obviously won't agree with that."
It was clearly him forcing Nicole, but in the end Bishop made it seem that it was Lucia forcing Nicole.
Lucia had to admit, Bishop was really good at misleading people.
"I'm going to take my artist away.I won't use force if Lion Group doesn't agree.Let's have everyone be the judge on this matter."
As Bishop said that, he waved his hand.
Immediately, two reporters walked off the RV and began taking pictures.
Lucia was stunned.She obviously did not expect Bishop would come to such a play.
If the reporters took pictures and the media with ulterior motives exaggerated them, she was afraid that the online comments would be even more unfavorable to the Lion Group.
August knew what Bishop was planning as well.
His eyes darkened and the guards next to him immediately understood what August was thinking.
They quickly went over and detained the reporters.
In an instant, the atmosphere became tense.
Everyone felt on edge.
August stepped forward, his gaze was sullen and cold as he looked at Bishop.
He was emitting a cold aura.
"There is no need for this.I'll give you back your artist."
After saying that, August turned to look at Nicole.
Nicole hesitated for a moment, knowing that if she didn't go over, the situation would become even more complicated.She looked at Lucia and walked over to Nicole.
A victor's smile appeared on Bishop's face.
He tilted his head sideways slightly, and Bob behind him immediately understood and pushed his wheelchair away.
All the staff, plus August, Lucia, Director Brook watched them leave, but could not say anything.
The RV left, and the atmosphere at the shooting site was terribly sullen.
This time, in front of the public, August had lost to Bishop.
This defeat could be seen as humiliation in front of everyone in Austos City.
How could August not be angry? The man stood there, like a statue, finally, he turned around, his eyes permeated with coldness, swept through the crowd, finally he looked at Director Brook and Lucia, and said coldly, "Directors, come with me."
After saying those words, he stepped straight ahead and walked directly to the front.
Lucia and Director Brook looked at each other and followed.
The atmosphere was a little depressing.
When they came to a separate lounge, August sat straight on a chair in front of the sofa, raised his head to them and said, "Sit."
Since August gave the order, Lucia and Director Brook did as they were told.
They walked over and sat down.
"That Nicole, who picked her?"
Mentioning Nicole, Lucia's heart skipped a beat, not knowing what to say.
A problem occurred involving Nicole at this moment in time, and all of this was caused by Bishop setting August up as well.
It was normal that he couldn't just let things pass.
She took a deep breath, gritted her teeth and said, "I picked it."
After hearing those words, August furrowed his brows, and after a short pause, he said coldly, "Where did you choose her from?"
Nicole was mostly likely a secret weapon covered up by Bishop intentionally.
They didn't expect them to bump into her.
And now the most suspicious person would be the one who recruited Nicole in the first place.
