Chapter 721 Terminating the Contract
When Daphne arrived at the studio, it was already 7.30PM. The online discussion regarding her and Theodore reached new heights probably due to the high traffic post-working hours. Thus, its popularity continued to climb without showing any signs of falling.

There were still many visitors in the studio, so she marched quickly toward Leanna's office with her mask on while pressing down on the brim of her cap. She knocked on the door, which quickly opened.

Leanna said, "Come in first."

Daphne took off her mask and exhaled. "What is it?"

Aidan, who was sitting on the couch, looked up at her. "Did you visit the Pearson Group?"

She didn't know what to say. How does he know that?

He seemed to have asked the question carelessly since he already knew the answer, so he went on, "What did they say to you?"

She settled opposite him slowly, not knowing where to start. After several seconds, she finally answered, "They've agreed to give back control of my account so I can personally clear up the rumors."

He made a noise of assent. "How are you going to do that?"

"The video that was published was only a few seconds long, so I just have to find the complete version."

"Are you sure that you can find it?"


Daphne was speechless. Truth was, she wasn't sure that she would be able to do that. It was clear that the Pearson Group would never help her deal with this, so she had to depend on herself. If she had admitted her weakness to Justin back then, she would have had to swallow down everything even if it hurt her. Besides, she was in the spotlight right now and the situation would become more disadvantageous for her if this went on.

She paused for a while. "There's video surveillance at the entrance which might have captured the event."

"If you can think of this, won't the publisher of the video consider that too?"

She froze and looked up abruptly. "Are you saying that the footage has been dealt with?"

Aidan crossed his long legs and drawled, "Of course."

She couldn't help but frown while pursing her lips tightly. She really hadn't thought that the Pearson Group would go to such lengths.

Aidan then added, "There's only one way to help you."

"What is it?" she asked.

"Officially ask the Pearson Group to terminate your contract."

Daphne was taken aback upon hearing that. "Terminate my contract?"

He pushed the laptop on the coffee table toward her. "The legal letter has been drafted, and the choice of whether or not to publish it lies with you."

She froze to the spot, not comprehending what Aidan was saying at all.

He went on, "You should know why you have been forced to take the spotlight with this. Once there's a first time, there will be a second and third time after that."

He didn't look like he was joking, so Daphne began to ponder it seriously as well. Back at the entrance of the president's office, the attitude and remarks of Justin's assistant had given her the urge to do so. Just terminate my contract, then; Do they think I can't survive without them?

However, she had been signed to the Pearson Group since her debut and had struggled during her journey up to now. Besides, they offered her good treatment as well, which made her somewhat unwilling to suddenly cancel her contract.

As if knowing what she was thinking, Aidan reminded her, "You should know that it was me who had signed you up and gave you all your resources, not the Pearson Group."

Daphne didn't know what to say to that. That's true, though. Having a bad boss once was enough to last her a lifetime and no matter what Justin was like, the actions of the Pearson Group made her feel nauseous. "I'll terminate the contract."

She took out her phone and keyed in the password the assistant had sent her to log on to Twitter.

After twenty minutes, the topic which exceeded the popularity of 'Daphne Shirley and Theodore Frost Suspected of Rekindling Their Old Flame' was 'Daphne Shirley Announcing Termination of Contract With the Pearson Group'.
