"Go ask her if she wants to join Royal Star Entertainment," Charles said in an icy voice. Xavier was taken aback. He did not expect Charles to make such an offer. "Charles, are you really going to sign Winter?""She'll need to come here to discuss it herself. If she's interested, she should see Ronald. He's the one in charge of everything at Royal Star Entertainment. If you come to me, all I can do is introduce you two," Charles explained."Got it. Thanks," Xavier said, understanding what he needed to do.Xavier left feeling a bit rattled. He had braced himself for a tough conversation, but Charles had been unexpectedly bold.Winter rushed over to Xavier as soon as she saw him. "Xavier, what happened? Did Charles say yes?"He nodded, and Winter hugged him tightly, beaming with joy. "Dear, I just knew it would work out! You're the best," she said and quickly kissed Xavier.Xavier, a bit overwhelmed by Winter's excitement, gently pushed her back. "Don't celebrate too soon. Charles

No one knew what Winter's face would look like when she found out, but she was feeling great for now. She thought she would be set for success with Charles's support, so why worry about the future?Winter did not waste any time. She went straight to Ethan at Whitemoor Company to ask him to break her contract. Sure, Winter was not the star she used to be, but Whitemoor had spent a lot of time and money making her famous. They were not too happy about letting her walk away for nothing.However, Winter had some powerful friends. The Shaw and Harris families knew she was close to Charles, who was a big deal in their circles. Thus, they decided to help Winter talk to the big boss at Whitemoor.The boss did not want to let Winter go at first, but he got a phone call in the middle of their discussion, and whatever he heard made him change his tune. He agreed to let Winter out of the contract, but Winter would have to pay to leave the company.The Shaw and Harris families were ready to do

"You..." Winter said angrily. "This contract is unfair and invalid!""Unfair and invalid? Ms. Shaw, a contract is valid from the moment you sign it. I'm pretty sure you know that, even if you're not a business whiz," Ronald said, tucking the contract away with a sly grin. "You think this deal's bad for you? You need to understand the kind of gamble Royal Star Entertainment is taking by stepping up despite the way things are going for you right now. If you don't want to follow through with it, sure, the deal's off. However, if you’re going to back out after agreeing... Well, you’d better think long and hard about that.""You..." Winter was totally blindsided by Ronald's bold move. "I'm related to Mr. Hoffman!""Who are you talking about?" Ronald teased with a smirk. "Royal Star Entertainment is mine to run now that Mr. Hoffman has handed it over. "Winter's face lost a bit of color. "Does Charles know you're doing this?""Mr. Hoffman's name isn't something just anybody can throw ar

Winter let out a huge sigh of relief when she saw that. The way Royal Star Entertainment handled things was truly impressive.As Jade walked by Winter's messy room, she grew worried something bad had happened. "Winter, what's going on? Is there a problem with Charles?""No, Mom. Charles said yes, and I've signed the contract. Don't worry!" Winter replied, remembering the contract she had signed but choosing not to mention the details to Jade. "I'm all good now. Mom, I really have to thank Xavier for helping out this time. If it wasn’t for him...""My dear, he's your fiance. Of course he's going to help you. But you've got to step up too. Remember what happened back then..." Jade let out a sigh. "Now that it's all sorted, just keep the past to yourself. Thankfully, Xavier didn't make a fuss. And make sure you keep Xavier's dad happy too!""I understand!" Winter's eyes sparkled as she remembered how Xavier had treated her that day, and she clenched her teeth. "Xavier really loves me,

Noelle had not been back to Frotconn since her incident. It seemed like Frotconn was just waiting for her to quit on her own, and Noelle knew it. However, she was not about to give up and resign. She had been hanging out at Phoenix Tree Residence lately.Charles had Ronald show Noelle how Royal Star Entertainment had been doing over the years.

"Who?" Charles asked, tapping on his desk."Winter's agent, Jane Gordon!" Ronald explained. "She used to work for Whitemoor Company, and she's not too happy with Winter. Now that Winter's cut ties with Whitemoor, Jane didn't stick with her!"Charles revealed a small smile and lifted an eyebrow, telling Ronald to go on. Ronald nodded and said, "The folks at Whitemoor Company found out that Royal Star Entertainment wants Winter, so they agreed to let Winter go. Whitemoor didn't say much about Jane. I figured that since she used to be Winter's agent, why not keep her on? She knows Winter better than anyone else!""Go ahead with handling these smaller matters," Charles said."Will do!" Ronald could tell Charles was happy with his plan. "Oh, and there's something else."Charles frowned and gestured for him to continue. "What is it?""It's about Madam's old place..." Ronald hesitated. "She never gave it up, so the landlord's been holding onto it. It wasn't a problem, but lately... Well

Ronald shook his head quickly. "Nope. I'm all done with my report!"Charles gave Ronald a look, and Ronald clamped his mouth shut, then blurted out, "Oh, I just remembered. I've got something else to do, Mr. Hoffman, Madam. I'll be on my way!""Um..." Noelle, noticing Ronald's rush, felt a bit puzzled. "I've cooked some food, Ronald. You can eat before you leave!"Ronald stopped for a second, feeling sharp eyes on him. He straightened up and let out a goofy laugh. "Madam, you're too kind, but I really have to run. I've got some urgent things to handle. Enjoy your dinner. I won't keep you!"Watching Ronald zoom off, Noelle paused, then turned to Charles and bit her lip. "Why did he rush off like that? Did you give him something urgent to do?"Charles narrowed his eyes in thought, then stood up and waved Noelle over. "What's up?" Noelle asked as she came closer. She glanced at the papers on the desk and raised her eyebrows. "Is this Winter's contract?"He nodded and handed her the

The anticipation seemed to speed up his recovery.Noelle had not been back to Frotconn since. She spent her days either at Phoenix Tree Residence or by Samuel's side in the hospital. One day, she ran into Jade in the hospital. Jade was already fuming at the sight of Noelle, especially angry that she had not been able to find Noelle at her home recently.

Don't you know how to greet your own mother?"Noelle's eyebrows pinched together as she looked at her arm in Jade's grip. It hurt a little, and she pulled away. "Mom!" she said, her voice strong and clear. Anyone listening could tell Noelle was not happy with Jade.Jad

Noelle's face grimaced as she touched her slapped cheek, but she went to help Samuel. "Grandpa, you should be resting. Let me help you back to bed."Samuel waved his hand and gently patted Noelle's hand. "Don't worry, I'm fine. I've been feeling better for quite some time!" he assured her. Then, he turned to Jade with a stern look. "I gave those shares to Noelle. They're hers now, and she can do what she wants with them. If you want to talk about outsiders, you should consider how you’re disgracing the family now, not Noelle.""Dad, how can you say that?" Jade gasped in shock. "You know we would never give away City Ring Corp.'s shares to strangers!""Is that so?" Samuel scoffed. "It seems to me like that's exactly what you're planning to do. Don't think I don't know what's going on just because I'm old. You're not fooling me." His sharp gaze made Jade uneasy, but she quickly replied, "Julian, Winter, and I are all Shaw family members. Our shares would never go to outsiders. Noelle

"He does!" Noelle blushed a little as she saw Samuel finish his bowl and quickly got him another. "Drink up, Grandpa!"Samuel was touched by how thoughtful Noelle was. Suddenly, something crossed his mind, and he looked at her curiously. "You've been coming around a lot lately. Aren't you still working?"Noelle's gaze darted away, and she told Samuel all about what had happened at Frotconn. His eyes, which were usually calm, suddenly sparkled with anger. "That Joseph treats my Noelle so badly!""It's okay," Noelle reassured him. "Even before all this happened, I was thinking about quitting. Things with Xavier are so awkward now, and Winter can't stand me. I didn't want to stay at Frotconn, but I never thought they'd let me go first."Noelle sounded a bit sad. She had been at Frotconn since she graduated, and she and Xavier had been so happy together once. back then, they even planned out their future. Joseph had liked her then and had given the relationship his blessing.Noelle ne
