Chapter 46 Reluctant to Leave

Since Shannon came to Mood for Love, Jade destroyed her phone card to prevent her from getting in touch with the outside world, only leaving her a useless mobile phone.

However, fortunately, this phone was still useful.

For example, it could be used to record.

At this time, Jade smiled coldly and arrogantly, “You don’t know shit! The more famous they are, the more we can get leverage of them, because these celebrities pay most attention to their own images. As long as the police come and find Snow from his team, Ethan will be defeated. He, as a celebrity, will definitely make concessions and readily give us money to avoid troubles. Follow my orders, and I promise you to get a sum of money successfully. Anyway, I’ll get them paid whoever gets in my way to earn money, including Ethan!”

After Jade finished, there was a fierce gleam in her eyes.

‘Snow’ is the code name for the illigal drug Jade sold secretly.

According to Jade, the girls would hook up with Ethan’s public relations team staff, and then seize the opportunity to put those prohibited drugs in their stuffs. Celebrities would definitely get involved in a scandal once they took those drugs. After that, Jade would take the chance to blackmail them.

Shannon slightly frowned.

The girls didn’t dare to speak anything and they agreed bitterly.

“Shanny, you are with them. Hook up with the manager who is in charge of the rectification!” Jade ordered Shannon.

Shannon smiled and said, “I’m fine with your arrangements. But if Mr. X came to meet me, what should I do? Jade, you promised that I only served him alone. If you fail to keep your promise, Mr. X will definitely not come here again. If so, how come he spends money on me?”

Hearing it, Jade nodded, “Well, you stay here with me to wait for their good news.”

Shannon stopped talking. She was wondering how to smash Jade’s scheme.

She quietly walked out of the room as Jade was sleeping.

She wanted to go out and reveal the information to Ethan’s public relations team. She intended to tell them that once they were fooled, Jade would succeed in her plan.

Just out of the accommodation building, she was stopped by Vera.

“Where are you going?”

“Jade is asleep. I don’t want to bother her, so I just come out for a walk.” Shannon lied to her calmly.

Vera smiled coldly, staring at her hands behind her. Then she asked suspiciously, “What’s that in your hands? Show me.”

Shannon moved backwards to a trash can and quick-wittedly dropped the phone into it.

Vera approached her furtherly and tried to pull her hands out.

Shannon did not resist. She put her hands in front of Vera and spread out her palms with bits of paper.

“Shanny, did you secretly make contacts with the outside?” Vera questioned her severely and then gloated, “I’m telling Jade now. There will be consequences.”

Shannon answered calmly, “Yeah, I contacted Mr. X. This is his private number. As I saw you, I got the idea of tearing it into pieces. Because I know that you would definitely hook up with him after you get this number. At that time, I will be out of favor, so I would rather tear it up than give it to you.”

Hearing her words, Vera stamped her feet with anger and went to Jade’s room to tell on Shannon.

Knowing about the whole story, Jade did not blame Shannon. Instead, she laid the blame on Vera, “If I were Shannon, I would do exactly as she did. There is nothing for you to feel aggrieved. No one would give up a magnate to others willingly.”

Vera did not dare to refute Jade, so she sat alone to sulk.

Shannon could not help but breathe a sigh of relief. She was wise to throw the mobile phone into the trash can, otherwise, if it was discovered by Vera, she would tell Jade who would definitely destroy the recording.

At night, Shannon went to the trash can and rummaged through it to look for the discarded mobile phone. Fortunately, because of the rectification, the garbage outside the door hadn’t been thrown out yet.

Soon, Shannon found the phone. It was still there and the recordings were still intact.

Shannon held the phone and went back to her room quietly.

She planned to keep these recordings well. If Jade really tried to frame Ethan’s team with Snow, she would disclose her crime.

Shannon made up her mind determinedly. Looking at the moonlight shining through the window, she closed her eyes and fell asleep worriedly.

The next morning, Shannon got up and found that both Jade and Vera were not here.

Shannon’s heart jolted. She walked out of the room, only found nobody there. Everything seemed to be quiet.

Did Jade’s scheme work?

If so, at this time, she should be negotiating with the public relations team for the money. If the negotiation was not successful, Jade would definitely make things worse. Ethan’s reputation would be damaged by then.

Shannon stepped up to Mood for Love where the rectification was underway.

All the previous installations were demolished. The place was full of new decoration materials, which were selected to be high-grade and non-toxic. The workers were constructing inside.

Looking for a long time, Shannon did not see Ethan’s public relations team.

At this time, there was a commotion in the front. The construction workers stopped working and ran over there.

Shannon thought there was an incident, so she ran along the crowd to see it.

“Mr. Yates is coming to visit us. Let’s ask him for his signature!”

“Is it really Ethan, the “King of Music”?”

“Yeah, yeah. Are you too excited to believe it?”

The two workers took off their hats and rushed over.

Shannon slowed down and stood still there. She had no courage to move further.

“Hello, everyone! Thanks for your hard work! You have done a great job!” Ethan was surrounded by a bunch of workers. He was so amiable and approachable, without any air of famous stars.

He was dressed in simple casual clothes in black and white. He was tall and slender like a delicate and elegant bamboo. In addition, he not only was modest and mild, but also enjoyed a big reputation.

Through the crowd, he saw a female figure who was in low spirit, and then he fixed his smile slightly.

“Mr. Yates, please be assured. We will install it to secure your satisfaction.”

“Mr. Yates, can I take a photo with you?”

“Mr. Yates, can I get your signature?”

The demands came one after another. He did not refuse them and just patiently took group photos and signed names for them.

Shannon was hidden behind a large pillar, looking at the scene silently.

He was standing near, but it seemed that they were so far away from each other.

Ethan’s eyes swept towards the direction of Shannon. Shannon’s heart jolted. She turned away in a panic and retreated until she was out of Ethan’s sight.

Abruptly, Shannon found that she bumped into someone. She looked up and saw a tall man stand before her.

Shannon knew him, the manager of Ethan’s public relations team, Lincoln.

“Are you Shanny? One of Jade’s subordinates?” Lincoln asked with no complexion.

Shannon nodded, “Yes.”

She was not willing to admit that she was a female worker here, but she had to face up to this fact.

Lincoln said, “Follow me.”

Shannon followed Lincoln to the second floor of Mood for Love.

She wanted to ask something about Jade. She wondered if Jade threatened and framed Ethan through the girls and illegal drugs. However, Lincoln told her before she asked.

“The procuress, together with a bunch of women, was imprisoned. Only you are behaved, so I decide to allow you to work here.”

It turned out that they were failed to seduce the staff of Ethan’s public relations team. The staff members always were disciplined and rigorous. They could not be fooled at all. On the contrary, the girls were accused of illegal prostitution by the staff, and got arrested by the police instantly.

Jade was no reception.

Shannon did not participate in the scheme, so she exerted a good impression on the team.

She relaxed slightly, because Jade’s scheme was undoubtedly ruined and she could not frame Ethan as she planned. Meanwhile, Shannon herself was free from Jade as well.

However, Lincoln asked her to stay here to work...

“Sorry, sir, I am not a native. I have to go back to my hometown.” Shannon was not willing to work here. Even if Ethan had forgotten her, or regarded her as nothing, she just didn’t have the courage to work in a place so close to him.

He would despise her if he knew that she was doing that kind of dirty work in Mood for Love!

Lincoln frowned and thought for a moment, “Well, I will not force you. But today, we are short of hands. Can you help us for a day and leave tomorrow?”

Shannon hesitated and looked towards the direction of Ethan.

“Don’t worry. I will pay you surely. Just one day. In the twinkling of an eye.” Lincoln added.

“Okay.” Seeing that Ethan had gone far, she nodded slowly and agreed.

The things she moved were not heavy. They were locked boxes with silver-edge decorations. She didn’t know what were inside. Lincoln asked her to move the boxes into a storage room.

All the large and small boxes were piled up in the storage room. Shannon thought that these things must be the music equipment needed for the concert.

Touching the boxes, her heart palpitated slightly.

After today, she would leave here, and went to a place far from Fairburg.

When this place was known as Mood for Love, she could not wait to escape from here immediately. While, at present, it became the venue for Ethan’s video, and she was reluctant to leave here.

Shannon sucked her nose and adjusted her mood. Then she put down the box and left the storage room.

Lincoln said that he would pay her salary on the next morning when she was about to leave. Therefore, she had no choice but to return to her room for a night.

Alone in the room, she could clean up and throw away the things that Mr. X bought for her.

She wouldn’t accept the things exchanged with her body. Those expensive jewelry, necklaces and beautiful clothes were extremely dirty in her eyes.

Even if they were worth a lot, she wouldn’t wear them.

Shannon stuffed those things into several suitcases and prepared to throw them into the sea when she was on a cruise linear.

Suddenly, she felt that her waist was tightened by someone. Then she was surrounded by a strong male hormonal scent.

Shannon’s heart jolted. She tried to free herself from the hands circling her waist.
