Chapter 281 Are You Done?
While listening to Casey, Courtney saw a figure from the corner of her eyes. The once familiar figure looks so foreign now.
Isaac was standing at the corner of the banquet hall. His arm was wrapped around the waist of a petite young woman—she was most probably the female anchor whom Casey was talking about.
Shay saw the two of them as well, but he scowled deeply. “Isn’t that Eva Reed?”
“Do you know her?” Courtney asked.
“She is working in the same company as I am, but she is an online streamer. The company doesn’t seem to value her since they do not intend to provide her with any targeted training. Usually, employees like that will not have their contract renewed.”
“How long is her contract?” She asked out of curiosity.
“Ten years.”
“Wouldn’t she be wasting ten years of her youth?” Courtney was in shock. “Even if they refuse to renew her contract after ten years, she can’t possibly continue in the same industry, can she? They are clearly exploiting her!”
“The bully exploiting her is right here.” Shay pouted at Casey. “Artist contracts within the AW Group start at a minimum of ten years. The money that one has to compensate is exorbitant if they were to break the contract. Those who are underappreciated, like Eva Reed, would have no choice but to do everything they can to look for a patron. Otherwise, with the measly salary from the company and commission through online streaming, it is impossible for her to afford two purses.”
Courtney glanced at Casey when she heard that. Then, she turned to ask Shay, “Well, in that case, do you have to look for a patron if you are being underappreciated?”
Casey’s gaze immediately darkened.
She acted as though she had not noticed it. In fact, she shoved Alexander forward. “I’ll lend him to you when the time comes. He can be your patron—what do you think?”

She keeps tabs on my work—day and night; it is almost giving me a nervous breakdown. I met Eva in a bar when I was having a business meeting with a friend. I wasn’t in awe of her when I met her for the first time. In fact, she is nowhere as pretty as Vanessa. However, her eyes have entranced
