He Clings to Me Every Night - Chapter 764

Chapter 764: Chapter 764: A Single Word Worth Nine Tripods

In an instant, the female artiste was dumbfounded.

She stared blankly for a few seconds before coming to her senses, begging for mercy hurriedly, “Olivia, I was just joking, please show mercy and let me off!”

Olivia Jenkins’s exquisite features exuded an intimidating aura as she casually replied, “I’m not joking, my word is my bond!”

Immediately, the other newcomers panicked, realizing their mistake and trying to salvage the situation, apologizing one after another.

Olivia Jenkins spoke decisively, “It’s too late. I adamantly refuse to use artists who lack moral character. From now on, all collaborations with Jenkins Group will cease.”

What now?

The artists were left with no choice but to call their agents or apologize to David Jefferson, pleading with him to intervene on their behalf.

…

Olivia Jenkins consulted Miss Winter, who fully supported her approach.

Unscrupulous artists who’ve not yet made it big definitely need to be let go. Miss Winter would handle negotiations with the artists’ agents, and find new talents for Olivia. They need to support their own signees for easier management.

They would need to reshoot some scenes, but they’re short-staffed and would have to wait a day to regroup, so the entire crew was put on standby.

Even though no one from the crew voiced it outright, gossip continued behind the scenes, with everyone still convinced that Olivia and David were having an affair.

The dismissed artists (feeling wronged) began sharing cryptic messages on social media. In just a short while, rumours of a romantic affiliation between Olivia and David Jefferson began trending.

Olivia, uncompromising, and unyielding to wrongdoing, directly tagged the artists on social media, stating publicly that she won’t work with them anymore and announcing Jenkins Group’s decision to blacklist them across the board.

A few seconds later, unexpected by everyone, Daniel Marshall’s spokesperson released a video in support of Mrs. Olivia Marshall’s decision, with Light Media completely blacklisting the artists as well.

Suddenly, the onlookers were left baffled, but they quickly figured it out – this was Chief Daniel Marshall’s ideal way to debunk rumors. He supported his wife’s decision, whatever it might be. What his wife says is right, and what his wife does is also right!

In an instant, the artists’ social media accounts were besieged by a wave of criticism.

Valerie Howard shared the sequence of events and also uploaded a short video as evidence while voicing her support for Olivia on social media, exposing the distasteful conduct of those troublemaking artists.

As a result, the artists quickly became social pariahs, with everyone frowning upon their actions. They received no support and were instead put on hiatus by their company, ending their contracts as well.

Following this commotion, the crew members became more cautious about gossiping.

What astounded everyone was seeing Chief Daniel Marshall arriving at Discovery County, travel-weary, expressly to find Mrs. Olivia Marshall, making clear that he was there to support her – any rumors would be promptly shut down!

Despite Daniel’s overture, Olivia didn’t appreciate it. She ordered that anyone not part of the crew was not allowed on set.

Upon hearing Olivia’s remarks, Valerie had no option but to ask her big brother and Daniel to leave graciously.

Simon Howard was unhappy and glared at Valerie, “Why are you siding with Olivia Jenkins? We traveled all this way to help, and not only are you ungrateful, you’re asking us to leave. You can’t treat your benefactors like this.”

With a look of disdain, Valerie glanced at her big brother and Daniel, “We never asked for your help, we can manage on our own. Please leave. Spare Olivia the disturbance, we don’t welcome you, and quit trying to curry favor, it just comes off as hypocritical!”

“Valerie, how can you talk like this? Daniel has always treated us well.”
