�Let�s go.� Xavier inadvertently glanced at Leia before he turned and left.

Since he wasn�t talking to Leia, he was curious to see how long she could hold on. Xavier, Shirley, and her team walked toward the president�s office.

Leia pretended to be indifferent as she walked into the elevator.

�Hmph! He can talk to anyone he wants! It has nothing to do with me. I don�t care at all!�

Xavier watched the elevator door close and realized that Leia didn�t want to fix things. He clenched his fists unhappily.

�Fine, Leia, if that�s how you want it. Your man is about to be snatched away by another woman but you couldn�t care less. Am I not important to you?�

�Wait here. Xavier wants to talk to me alone,� Shirley said to her agent and assistant.

�It�s fine, let them come in. They should know about this too,� Xavier said cryptically.

Xavier put one hand in his pocket, his posture cold as he walked into his office. He then casually dropped onto the sofa, uncaring about his image now.

�Umm� It�s fine. Mr. Stuart, you can talk to Shirley alone and she can brief us later. If we go in, we�ll only be in your way,� the agent explained quickly. Of course, she hoped that Shirley could win Xavier�s heart back.

After all, Shirley would fall from grace in less than half a year without a sponsor given her lack of skills. She would lose both her net worth and her huge fanbase, and it would be tough for her to make a comeback again.

�Just come in. As her team, you should be involved in her future plans, right?� Xavier frowned impatiently, burning with anger.

Leia�s indifference earlier had annoyed him, and now, these women were trying to scheme against him.

�Well� This�� Both the agent and assistant glanced at Shirley, waiting for her order.

They were loyal to Shirley, so they always obeyed her.

�It�s fine, just come in since he asked you to.

I guess the company has come up with a new plan for my development, so we should all hear about it together," Shirley said finally, a strained smile on her face.

They all walked into the president�s office and closed the door behind them. Xavier put his elbows on the table, his fingers crossed under his chin.

He appeared relaxed, but exuded the power and confidence typical of a successful man. His calculative gaze seemed like it could see through any hidden intentions.

�I won�t beat around the bush. The current market likes tough women, so Shirley�s image isn�t compatible with it. The board of directors suggested withdrawing some of Shirley�s resources, so we�ve decided to send Shirley to Korshach to study for a year. We won�t accept any new jobs for her,� Xavier said bluntly, revealing the company�s plan.

�What?!� The agent was shocked.

After a while, she asked hesitantly, �Is the company going to suspend Shirley?�

�No, she�s going to study abroad.�

�But Shirley is a star who gains her fame through exposure, so it�s practically

suspension if she doesn�t have jobs for a year! Please reconsider � It was hard for her to get this far after so many years. If she goes off the grid, it�ll be a gigantic loss for both Shirley and the company,� the agent begged shamelessly. JrNovels.com
