Chapter 327
“Yes, Ms. Scott,” Zayla replied, but there was hesitation in her voice.
Sensing her reluctance, Maeve asked, “is there something else?”
“Well, Ms. Scott, there’s one more thing” Zayla looked troubled. “Serena is now signed with Brooks Entertainment. They reached out today asking if she could do a magazine shoot with Bryce.”
“Did they contact Mirage Group or Scott Group?”
“Scott Group…”
The people in Brooks Group now had zero courage to work with Mirage Group directly.
However, despite Scott Group being a subsidiary of Mirage Group, it seemed the Brooks Group still hoped to leverage their relationship. Given Bryce’s status as a top–tier actor and celebrated film star with a massive fan base, collaborating with him would significantly elevate Serena’s profile.
“It seems like the Brooks Group wants Serena to reach the pinnacle of success right from the start,” Maeve remarked with a slight smile. Instant stardom wasn’t always a good thing.
“Should we agree to it, Ms. Scott?”
“Just ask Bryce. If he agrees, I have no objections.”
Zayla didn’t understand why Maeve would give Serena this opportunity. Elevating Serena’s status would benefit Brooks Group and negate their efforts to undermine it.
“Why? Are you questioning my decision?”
“No, I’ll ask him right away.” Zayla left the office.
Maeve gazed out the window. Brooks Group might want Serena to become their cash cow, but choosing Bryce? He might appear reserved and polite, but he’s just as cunning. Serena wouldn’t gain much from this.
On set, Zayla approached Bryce’s manager, who relayed Maeve’s request. Bryce smiled faintly and answered, “A collaboration? Sure.”
The manager was stunned. “But with the current situation between Brooks Group and Ms. Scott…”
“It’s fine. Just let Zayla know I’m in,” Bryce replied cheerfully, leaving his manager bewildered.
This decision seemed to contradict everything, aiding Brooks Group by promoting their new talent and going against their own boss. When Brooks Group and Scott Group finalized the collaboration, Sergio heard the news without much enthusiasm.
Larry reported, “Along with the cooperation agreement, Mrs. Brooks sent you a new divorce agreement.”
Without a glance, Sergio tore the papers in half. “Don’t bother showing me these again. Just trash them.” “Yes, Mr. Brooks.”
“And set up a press conference for the renewed partnership between Brooks Group and Scott Group.
“A press conference?” Larry frowned. “But this collaboration is minor and doesn’t warrant one-”
Sergio cut him off. “Organize a banquet. Invite the partners and the press. Bryce is a renowned film star who is collaborating with a new talent from our company. We should host them properly.”
Larry instantly grasped Sergio’s real intent. This wasn’t about the partnership at all–it was his ploy to see Maeve!
