Chapter 142
‘Michael Austin?”
The manager thought carefully but couldn’t recall anyone by that name. He said, “Ms. Frazier, our hottest talent here is Se Chandler. Should I
call him over?”
Debra glanced at the manager, smiling outwardly but with no warmth in her eyes.
“You have half an hour to bring Michael to me,” Debra said, going straight upstairs.
The manager signaled to his subordinates before following Debral upstairs.
Downstairs, several employees exchanged puzzled looks.
‘Michael? That fresh graduate?‘
But since it was Debra’s order, they had to contact Michael immediately.
Debra glanced around the office. The manager, trying to impress, said, ” Madam, this office was left by the previous CEO. I had it renovated yesterday. Do you replace it satisfactory?”
“Not bad,” Debra replied, sitting down in the chair.
The manager persisted, “Sean is the pillar of our company now. Wouldn’t you reconsider meeting him?”
Debra smiled slyly, making the manager uneasy.
She knew things about Sean. He was nothing more than a B–list celebrity who gained fame through scandals. His acting skills were mediocre, and all he relied on was his pretty face.
But even so, in Frazier Entertainment, Sean was a big deal.

She remembered how Sean had used a wealthy woman to boost his career at Frazier Entertainment, only to lose popularity due to mistreating fans and staff behind the scenes. His downfall was quick.
Looking at the manager, Debra asked with interest, “Seems like you really favor Sean.”
“He brings considerable profits to the company every year. Naturally, I have high hopes for him,” replied the manager.
“Last year, despite the significant investment, his performance wasn’t outstanding. How much did you take from Sean to praise him so highly in front of me?”
Unexpectedly sharp, Debra’s words made the manager nervous. He gulped and stammered, “Ms. Frazier, you’ve misunderstood. I…”
“Let’s check the accounts,” Debra interrupted.
The manager’s nerves tightened further.
To promote Sean, they had spent a lot of company resources, yet he still couldn’t reach the top tier or bring proportional benefits to the company.
Seeing his hesitation, Debra leaned back in her chair.
Frazier Entertainment indeed harbored its share of dirt.
Outside the door, an employee timidly entered. “Ms. Frazier, we’ve contacted Michael, but he…”
“What’s wrong with him?”
“He doesn’t want to come.”
“Doesn’t want to?”
This caught Debra by surprise.

The employee nervously explained, “Michael said he won’t come unless the company terminates the contract with him.”
“Doesn’t he realize that’s a breach of contract?” Debra chuckled.
The employee kept her head down, afraid to speak.
No one knew what Michael was thinking.
The CEO wanted to see him, but he refused.
Debra stood up, declaring, “If he doesn’t want to come, I’ll go to see him.
