Midnight Bride The CEO's Temptation

Chapter 522 - 522: Vindictive Charlotte

Savannah remembered something.

"Did he call you for his engagement to Charlotte?" She asked, trying to ignore the pain in her trembling voice.

Jacob was a direct person, and he didn't know how to tell a lie in front of a girl. Under her careful glance, he sighed and nodded, "he asked me to be the best man at his engagement party...at the beginning of next month."

His words gave Savannah's heart a painful twinge. The color went off her face, and she didn't speak for a long time.

His marriage to Charlotte was not a joke. It was coming up.

"Savannah, what happened between you? Shall I go talk to him for you?" Jacob couldn't bear to see the heartbroken expression in Savannah's eyes.

"No. Thank you, Jacob." Savannah braced herself up and swallowed all the sadness.

Fortunately, there came a knock on the door.

"It should be Olivia. I have to go." She forced a smile.

The door opened, but instead of Olivia, it was Matt.

Matt took the bag from Savannah, greeted Jacob, and said to Savannah, "Olivia's tied up today and asked me to pick you up. Come on, Savannah."

Savannah composed herself, said goodbye to Jacob, and followed Matt out of the room.

"Didn't Olivia say she had no play today? What's the matter with her?" She asked casually.

Matt, however, looked like he was in a trance and didn't hear her. He made no answer but walked on.

"Matt?" Savannah looked at him, feeling strange.

"Huh? What did you say?" Matt came to his senses.

"I asked you what Olivia's doing. She told me she had no work today."

"She... Oh... maybe the cast temporarily added a scene and called her... So, she..." Matt stammered out a few words.

Savannah knew that Matt was not a good liar, and that was why Olivia liked him. He was obviously preoccupied today.

She stopped and asked him seriously, "Matt, is something wrong with Olivia?"

Matt froze and didn't answer for a long time.

Savannah understood immediately. Something really happened to Olivia. Otherwise, she wouldn't have let Matt pick her up. She took a breath and asked, "Matt, tell me, what's the matter with Olivia?"

Matt hesitated for a moment before he whispered, "Olivia's fine. It's just..."

"Just what?" Savannah demanded eagerly.

"The director of the crew she was working in told her this morning that her role had been cut. Some advertisements endorsed by her have also been canceled. She rushed to the agency this morning, but the agency didn't give her an answer. You know her temper. She's very stubborn, and she won't give up before she makes it clear. She's still in the company now, asking for an explanation. That's why she asked me to pick you up." Matt knitted his brows tightly.

"How did that happen? Is she shut out from her work?" Savannah stood there, surprised.

"Yes. I don't know why, but it looks as if she's offended, someone."

Savannah froze, and her brows wrinkled as though she had remembered something.

"Matt, let's go to Olivia's company."

Matt was also worried about Olivia. He nodded and left the hospital with Savannah.

When they arrived at Olivia's company, they headed upstairs to the artist management department. As soon as they approached the door, they heard Olivia arguing with someone.

"I just want a lucid explanation!"

"Olivia, why don't you go back home first? We'll talk to you about it later." The agent was obviously playing the fool.

"I need an explanation now. You have stopped all my work for no reason!" Olivia was quite annoyed.

Savannah pulled out her phone quietly, turned on the video, and faced it to Olivia and the agent.

The agent saw her movement and came to stop her busily. "Hey, hey, what are you doing? Who gave you permission to shoot?"

At the same time, Matt went up and pulled Olivia aside.

Savannah looked at the agent and said slowly, "nothing. I just want to post this on Olivia's Twitter and show Olivia's fans how their idol is shut out for no reason by her agent, and let everyone know how your company bullies its artists."

The agent's face changed. Finally, he sighed, "okay, fine, you want to know why? I can only tell you, it's not a decision from our company. Someone contacted our senior management and stopped your work. You must have offended someone. That person has a good background and is very familiar with our management."

"Is that person surnamed Rowe?" Savannah asked suddenly.

The agent paused and then nodded, "yes. All right, I told you the reason now. Don't spread this video around and ruin our company's reputation. Go out!"

It was Charlotte! Savannah exchanged glances with Olivia, whose face darkened, standing mute a great while.

Needless to say, it was Charlotte's revenge after Olivia went to the Sterling group to complain to Dylan.

It was a long time before Savannah murmured, "Olivia. I'm gonna intercede with your superior..."

"No, Savannah. Since Charlotte's familiar with the senior management, it's no use talking with them. Well, maybe the company will use me again after a time. After all, I can still make money for them." Olivia said so with forced calm.

Savannah's face became darker. She was well aware of how valuable an artist's first few years were. There were new artists every day. Olivia's career had just started, and she would lose too much to be treated like this.

She didn't expect Charlotte to be so vindictive!

Savannah clenched her fist, feeling guilty.

If it were not for her, Olivia wouldn't have been retaliated by Charlotte and suffered this unfair treatment!

Aware of Savannah's silence, Olivia grabbed her hand and forced a smile.

"It's all right. You know I've been working so hard these years, and I'm really tired... Now it's good to have a chance for a rest! Come on, Savannah, Matt, let's go eat!"

Savannah knew Olivia was consoling her, but she felt more uncomfortable. She said nothing and left the company with them in silence.
