Anything For Her

Chapter 339

Chapter 339

Ysabelle immediately stood up when she saw people coming out of the conference room.

However, there was no sight of Sophie.

“Oh dear, I hope she's all right. I must admit the problem at hand is rather tricky. If she can't settle it, I can always ask Uncle Tristan for help.” Worrying about Sophie, Ysabelle unknowingly babbled on and forgot that Mark was behind her.

Turning around and seeing Mark's emotionless face, she became a little embarrassed.

“Mark, I didn't mean anything else by that. It's just...” Ysabelle tried to explain herself but was stuck for words.

How should I say it? It just sounds wrong no matter how I put it!

“It's fine. You don't need to explain anything to me.” Mark's response was brief. His attitude toward people had always been aloof since he did not see the need to connect with them. Sophie was an exception.

Sophie spotted Mark as she exited the conference room.

He should know about it, right? Well, given his astuteness, it's very likely that he must have sensed something was amiss.

Sophie approached Mark.

Before she could say anything, Mark consoled her, “Sophie, if this is too tough, just let it go. It's our dream so we will work on it ourselves. There's no need for you to suffer for us.”

“Mark, I'm also a part of The Wheelers, all right? Moreover, since TS Entertainment is my company and now that the band is managed by us, how can I just leave you all in the lurch? Unless you don't trust me to be able to handle this matter?”

Mark never thought of it that way. It was not that he did not trust her; he was worried that she would be hurt fighting alone.

“I just don't want any one of us to cause you to have a difficult time,” Mark said concerningly.

Sophie laughed. “Don't worry! Nobody can hurt me. The pitiful one will be Clayton.” Sophie would not let anybody who dared to touch her people off easily.

“Well, you better go back now. They'll start to be suspicious if you're gone for too long. Don't let any of the members feel burdened.” Sophie did not want Mark to think too much and thus quickly ended the conversation.


“Okay.” Mark did not say anything more. Seeing how confident Sophie was, he did not want to sound too discouraging.

Meanwhile, The Wheelers were supposed to appear on a few music shows for publicity but had since been canceled due to the scandal.

Like a cat on hot bricks, Jonathan was extremely anxious.

Now that The Wheelers were denied publicity opportunities, were they really doomed this time?

“Mark, don't worry too much. Even if we fail this time, I'm sure there'll be another opportunity.” Jonathan tried to comfort Mark, although it sounded more like he was comforting himself.

Judging from the current situation, it was virtually impossible for them to turn the tables.

Leaning against the window, Mark stared blankly at the scenery outside. He had not spoken a word since parting with Sophie.

Having been in the entertainment industry for so many years, he had seen all sorts of stuff. As a result, he was not a person who would lose sleep over incidents like this.

The truth was, he was not afraid of failure.

But this time was different. Sophie was involved, and that spurred his desire for this project to be successful.

This was their first collaboration ever since Sophie left.

It would be a lie to say that Mark did not care about the project at all.

On the other hand, in comparison to the dire state The Wheelers were in, Freezewave was having a field day.

They participated in a few big music shows, and their album even climbed to the number one spot on the best-selling chart.

The Freezewave members were elated with how things were panning out for them.

“I was thinking about what was so great about The Wheelers and why everyone was fussing over them. Turns out they're not all that at all.”

“Yeah! It's all their fans' doing; they have over-immortalized them.”

“All right, you'd better shut your mouths. Just look at yourselves. You think you're any better than them?” As the conversation among the members went on, Clayton's face blackened. “All of you listen right up. Did you think you achieved all these results because of your abilities? No. All these were made possible because I used money. So you all better behave yourselves these few days and don't get into trouble.” Clayton directly bruised their ego.

I used money to manipulate the charts and they thought it was due to their own credit? Where did they even get the confidence? Freezewave is a bunch of freaking losers.

The Freezewave members were not happy with how Clayton talked them down.

Nonetheless, he was their financial backer; they could only swallow their displeasure in silence.

Clayton returned to the company to find Willow still waiting there.

“Clayton, what took you so long to come back? I've been waiting here for the whole afternoon,” Willow whined with a pitiful look in her eyes. Fearing that Clayton would come back any moment, she ordered delivery for dinner and did not dare to step away, not even to use the restroom.

Clayton furrowed his brows. Clearly, he did not want to deal with Willow right now. “Willow, as a student in your senior year, you should be studying now. Why did you even come here?”

“I'm sorry, Clayton. Am I bothering you?” Willow did not understand why there was a sudden change in his mood.

Clayton did not feel like responding to Willow. The past few days had been tough on him.

Earlier on, Clayton left with a group of people, leaving Willow to wait for a few hours there. Yet, instead of showing concern, all he did was question why she was at the company.
