Chapter 299: Chapter 299: I will not accept your unilateral breach of contract!
After the meeting ended, President Liu of the entertainment company immediately called Xia Yuge.
At that moment, Xia Yuge was on her way to promote her new book. When she received the call from President Liu asking her to come back, she refused and said she’d return after the promotion.
Usually, faced with Xia Yuge’s resistance, President Liu would have been furious, but today he was extraordinarily calm. This made Xia Yuge a little curious, but she didn’t think much of it and hung up the phone to go on with the book promotion.
It wasn’t until the promotion ended that her manager, with a troubled look, walked up to her and whispered a few words in her ear. Only then did Xia Yuge understand why President Liu was unusually calm today.
She hurried back to the company, and by then, President Liu had already prepared the termination paper waiting for her.
Seeing her storm into his office, President Liu gave her a slight smile, "Promotion over? Come, sit down."
He indicated the single sofa on the side.
Xia Yuge sat down on the single sofa, her gaze falling on the termination paper placed on the coffee table in front of her.
When she terminated her contract with her previous company, Van Shuo Entertainment Company paid a breach of contract fee of one million for her.
Later, when she signed with Van Shuo Entertainment Company, it was a five-year contract, clearly stating that if Xia Yuge breached the contract within five years, she would compensate Van Shuo Entertainment Company two million (repaying the one million they paid on her behalf plus a new one million breach fee). If Van Shuo Entertainment Company breached the contract, they wouldn’t need to pay Xia Yuge any breach fee (since they once paid a one million breach fee for her).
So today, if Van Shuo Entertainment Company terminated the contract with Xia Yuge, she wouldn’t receive a single cent.
"I believe you’ve already gotten the news, so I won’t beat around the bush. The proposal to terminate the contract with you was unanimously approved at the board meeting."
President Liu’s voice carried some sympathy. Over the years, the company had made Xia Yuge famous, and just when she was soaring at the peak, she was suddenly kicked off the cloud.
"No... that’s impossible. Yisen wouldn’t agree to it."
Xia Yuge stared at the termination paper in front of her, shaking her head in disbelief at President Liu’s words.
"The chairman also voted in favor."
However, President Liu’s words were like a sharp knife directly piercing Xia Yuge’s heart.
"No, I do not agree to the termination."
"I’m afraid that’s not for you to decide. The company can no longer accommodate you."
"No."
Xia Yuge shook her head, unable to believe what President Liu was saying to her, feeling that this must be a nightmare.
How could Yisen agree to terminate the contract with her? He definitely wouldn’t! He definitely wouldn’t!
Xia Yuge’s devastated demeanor made President Liu feel even more sympathetic towards her. In consideration of the friendship over the past three years, he kindly advised, "Yu Ge, the chairman supported you because he appreciated you. You can only blame yourself for repeatedly throwing tantrums, challenging his patience with you."
However, at this moment, with her mind in turmoil, she had no heart to listen to President Liu’s advice, only feeling that his words were ironic. She screamed angrily, "What do you know! Yisen supported me because he likes me! It must be that woman Qin Muni causing trouble!"
Her sharp voice was exceedingly grating, and her words were like a bucket of cold water, extinguishing President Liu’s original sympathy for her.
He turned cold, with a few traces of irony climbing onto his face, staring expressionlessly at Xia Yuge: "This is the termination paper. From this day on, you have no further relationship with Van Shuo Entertainment Company. You may leave now."
"No, I will not accept your unilateral termination! I will sue you!"
