The next day, Zoey hung around the office until the afternoon, as she had scheduled a meeting with a talent agent from another
entertainment firm. It was about a celebrity's job-hopping.
A leading star from this firm had his eye on hopping over to the Star Movie Group.
The actor in question was a seasoned vet, with a career that stretched back over a decade. His TV series roles had etched a
permanent spot in countless viewers' hearts. Online, the expiration of his contract had becthe subject of much speculation.
But what no one knew was that the star had already been in touch with Star Movie Group, which had agreed to offer him a hefty
signing bonus.
Still, this was a deal she needed to handle in person.
When the appointed hour arrived, Zoey grabbed her purse and headed out. John was already waiting at the hotel, mentioning that
Arthur was catching sZ's next door.
"Zoey, I've ordered stakeout for Arthur. Would you mind knocking on his door to wake him up? He had a night shoot
yesterday, but | told him you were coming. He should be up by now."
Prior to this, Zoey had already negotiated with his current company. Since she was offering a significant signing fee, plus they had
sdirt on them, the top brass were inclined to release him. Arthur was a pretty laid-back guy, not one for unnecessary .
Nearly twenty years in the spotlight, and his Twitter following was pushing eighty million - a true evergreen celebrity.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe hotel rendezvous had been chosen to dodge the paparazzi's prying lenses. The security at the hotel was top-notch, with nary a
pap successfully infiltrating.
Zoey rose and approached Arthur's door. He had just woken up, assuming it was his own agent, and answered the door in a
bathrobe.
Seeing Zoey, he paused, taken aback.
Zoey, equally startled, briefly halted her outstretched hand. Clearing her throat, she said, "Once you're up, con over. You and
your agent can go over the contract.”
Arthur ran a hand through his hair, quickly regaining his composure, "Alright."
Zoey got back next door. Good thing was the signing proceeded swiftly. John, representing the other company, fired off a couple of
sharp questions, all deftly parried by Zoey. With her lawyer arriving just in time, the deal was soon hammered out.
Arthur left without his own agent; John was still with the old company. So, Arthur hopped into Zoey's car, and they headed for Star
Movie Group to finalize his upcoming schedule with the execs.
As the three arrived outside the hotel, Arthur shook hands with John. After a collaborative stretch of four or five years, it was
unfortunate that their visions no longer aligned, necessitating a contract termination.
Once inside Zoey's car, Arthur exhaled a sigh of relief. Zoey glanced at him through the rearview mirror as she drove.
"Did you wrap up last night's shoot?"
"Yeah, it's done. I'm free of commitments, which is why | dared to make the switch."
"Don't worry; the company will have your next roles lined up in no time."
Arthur offered a wry smile. Despite an air of experience, he was still young, only thirty-two - prtfor a male actor's career to
take off.
However, his old company had wanted him to mentor their newcomers and had been hyping up a “couple” with him for half a year,
earning the ire of the internet.
Riding on Arthur's coattails, his old company had indeed propelled a few actresses to fame, sparking near-constant online warfare
between their fans and Arthur's.
Now, with his contract ending, his Twitter mentions had exploded past thirty thousand, all urging him to break free.
As the pair reached the company's entrance, Zoey's phone rang. It was Elvis.
"Zoey, where are you?"
"Just outside the company building. What's up?"
"Cup here."
Zoey had a feeling something was off. Once in the office, Elvis showed her the trending topics online.
The top trend was about Arthur.
"Breaking News, a Star Breaks Contract for a New Company's Exec?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAn entertainment journalist with massive followers had dropped the bombshell, and they were known for stirring the pot online.
This twas no different, with the release of a few photos. The first showed a male star answering the door in a robe, face
obscured, while the woman was fully visible; the second captured the woman leaving, her profile clear, with the male still
pixelated.
With fan's craziness nowadays, they could identify a star from the slightest glimpse. And in these photos, the male's chest muscles
were on full display.
[It's Arthur! Wasn't he negotiating with Yvonne?]
[Weren't they spotted together last week? She hinted at good news, did he cheat?]
[Check her live stream! She's crying, saying she's feeling down!]
