Oliver sat on the couch with a dark expression, playing a game. His manager, Robin, was pacing the room anxiously.

“Boss, you’ve signed the contract. Do you know how big of an impact it will have if you refuse to act now?”

Oliver let out a cold laugh. He executed a perfect move in the game, defeating his opponent, before speaking, “It’s just a breach of contract fee, right? It’s not like I don’t have the money. I’ll pay them. No matter what you say, I’m not doing this show.”

Robin frantically grabbed his hair and nearly knelt in front of him. “Boss, it’s not just about the money. We’ve already negotiated with Mr. Hawkins. If you back out now, our reputation will be ruined in the industry. You know how connected Mr. Hawkins is. If he gets annoyed with us, do you think you can still make it here?”

“Ha.” Oliver sneered, “You think I’m scared?”

“You might not be scared, but I am, okay?” Robin pleaded.

Robin couldn’t believe his bad luck for landing such a boss.

He had been totally captivated by this guy’s looks–handsome and refined, the type girls loved. He signed. him immediately. And, to be fair, his instincts were spot–on. Oliver became an instant sensation, with countless adoring fans.

Just when Robin thought he could rely on this cash cow for a lifetime of comfort, Oliver completely defied expectations.

First, he didn’t care if a role could win awards or if it was any good. What mattered was that he looked handsome! If the director could hang a sign saying “Handsome” on his head, he’d do the role for free.

Secondly, he was totally uncontrollable, like a pig escaping from its pen.

Once, he saw a director getting cosy with an actress and spent the entire night outside their door with a loudspeaker, playing a song that went, “Daddy’s daddy is grandpa…” It was said that the director ended up being taken away by the police that night.
