Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot

Chapter 635: 214: Good and Evil Will Eventually Be Rewarded_6
Edward Thompson didn’t panic at all.

He could just take this opportunity to terminate the contract with Howard and set up his own studio.

As for Howard.

There would be nowhere for him to cry from regret later on.

Howard was too out of touch.

He was just like a parasitic vine that could only survive by relying on a large tree.

Once the vine left the tree, there was only one outcome.

Death.

The only path for him was death.

“Follow the procedure?” Howard didn’t expect Edward Thompson to have this attitude, and then said, “Bob, I advise you not to be impulsive.”

Howard had been married for many years and had no children. Over the years, he had treated Edward Thompson as his own son.

He didn’t want to see Edward Thompson regret it.

“I’m not impulsive,” Edward Thompson continued, “Howard, after all these years, you should know my character well.”

With that said, Edward Thompson added: “Don’t you just want to see me fail and regret it? Let me tell you, I never will! Because the person who really can’t see the situation clearly is you.”

Howard would be the one to regret it as well.

Howard frowned slightly, “Fine, since you’ve already made up your mind, I won’t say more, just come to the company tomorrow afternoon.”

“No need for tomorrow afternoon, let’s do it today; let’s go to the company right now.” Edward Thompson was very determined.

Initially, Howard had come to persuade Edward Thompson; he didn’t expect it to end up with the termination of the contract.

“As long as you don’t regret it.” Howard said.

Edward Thompson followed Howard’s footsteps.

How could he regret it!

He was even afraid that Howard would regret not wanting to terminate the contract.

After all, his status was clear here.

With his current status in the entertainment industry, he didn’t need a broker at all.

Having a company became a burden instead.

Soon, the two arrived at the company.

Howard asked the legal department to draft a contract termination agreement.

The legal department was very efficient.

In less than half an hour, the secretary came over with the contract, “Howard.”

As the secretary handed the contract to Howard, he looked up at Edward Thompson.

Howard glanced over the contract and said, “You still have three endorsements and two variety shows to shoot in the company recently.”

Edward Thompson said, “I am willing to pay the penalty.”

Since he had decided to terminate the contract, there was no need to care about the last bit of face.

He wanted to let Howard see.

If the company didn’t have him, it wouldn’t be able to operate.

Howard’s success today was entirely due to him!

It was he who had made Howard, not the other way around!

Hearing this, Howard frowned slightly. These three endorsements and two variety show endings were hard-won opportunities for Edward Thompson, but he would rather pay the penalty than shoot them.

He was simply ungrateful!

“Bob, fulfilling these endorsements and variety shows will only benefit you and not harm you.” Howard continued.

In fact, Howard knew Edward Thompson’s desire to go solo as well.

Going solo was never an easy thing.

Furthermore, Edward Thompson was now being suppressed by public opinion.

Edward Thompson didn’t think Howard was really looking out for him; in his view, Howard was trying to squeeze the last drop of blood out of him.

Because in the whole company, besides him, there was no second Emperor Thompson.

Once he left, no one could take his place.

That’s why Howard wanted him to continue this cooperation.

Unfortunately.

Howard had underestimated him in the end.

He wasn’t stupid.

Nor would he let others manipulate him!

With that thought, Edward Thompson turned to look at Howard and said, “Howard, actually, we both know the twists and turns in the middle. We’ve been cooperating for so long, and if we say everything, there’s no point. As long as everyone understands, that’s fine, right?”

“If that’s the case, I’ll follow the rules and regulations.” Howard said, looking at the secretary, “Go and have the legal department draft a new contract!”

“Alright.” The secretary nodded, “I’ll go right away.”

This time Howard was really angry. He didn’t leave any room for face, and in total, Edward Thompson had to compensate the company ten billion.

Seeing the penalty amount on the contract, Edward Thompson’s brow didn’t even furrow. Although the penalty was large, he didn’t care.

With his business capabilities, ten billion was just a small sum.

“I’ll transfer the money to the company’s account within three working days.” Edward Thompson signed the contract and looked at Howard.

“Okay.” Howard nodded, “I’ll have the finance department watch for it.”

Edward Thompson continued, “Howard, I wish you all the best in the future.”

However, it was obvious that without him, it would be very difficult for Howard to get better and better in the future.

Howard would know how foolish his decision today was!

“Thank you.”

Edward Thompson picked up his car keys, “I have something else to do, I have to go!”

Watching Edward Thompson’s back, there was an indescribable look in the depths of Howard’s eyes.

There was some regret.

No matter what, she had been Edward Thompson’s first agent.

Hopefully, Edward Thompson wouldn’t regret it in the future.

A moment later, Howard pressed his temples and looked at the secretary, then said, “Go and make a report to President Jun for me, saying that I want to take a two-month break.”

Since signing Edward Thompson, Howard hadn’t had a proper rest.

She needed to take advantage of this time to adjust herself properly.

The secretary nodded, “Alright.”

With that said, the secretary asked, “By the way, Howard, will Emperor Thompson really never come back?”

“Hmm.”

The secretary didn’t ask any more questions and left.

Howard was the company’s top agent; as long as she was willing to take someone on, there was no one who wouldn’t become popular. She proposed to take a break for a while, and President Jun would definitely agree. Moreover, President Jun also let the secretary convey to Howard that she could rest for as long as she wanted.

On the other side.

After making inquiries from various sources, James finally found Sylvia Thompson’s residence.

Today.

He had to catch Sylvia Thompson!

James looked at the picture of Sylvia Thompson on his phone and carefully observed every passing girl, afraid that he would miss Sylvia Thompson.

At this moment.

A young woman in a blue dress with a white bag approached him from a distance.

James looked at the photo on his phone and then at the young woman coming towards him, immediately recognizing that this was Sylvia Thompson!

James hurriedly walked forward and stopped Sylvia Thompson, grabbing her hand, “Daughter! My daughter! I finally found you!”

Sylvia Thompson was completely bewildered and looked at James with disgust, who was holding her hand, “You’ve got the wrong person, right?”

“Sophia! I’m your father!” James was unwilling to let go of Sylvia Thompson, clinging to her like a dog skin plaster, with tears and snot, “It’s all because of that bitch Nidya! She’s nothing but a low-class slut! If it wasn’t for her, you and I wouldn’t have been separated for so long!”

Sophia?

Nidya?

Sylvia Thompson’s face turned pale in an instant.
