Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot

Chapter 639: 206: Numerous contract terminations, losses exceeding one billion! _3



Disbelief was written all over her face.

After all, Howard and Sawyer Thompson had been friends for many years. Originally, Howard didn’t want to take Edward under her wing. However, Sawyer intervened, and it was only then that Howard agreed to it.

But now…

Howard had actually dissolved her contract with Edward!

Could it be…

Could it be that the Thompson Clan really gave up on Edward?

After all, Edward was part of the Thompson bloodline!

Sylvia tried her best to calm herself down, and then said, “Little brother, don’t be too impulsive. Did you sign a contract?”

“Yeah, the contract dissolution has been signed.” Edward seemed completely unconcerned.

After all, in Edward’s view, he didn’t need to rely on the Thompson Clan’s power and Howard’s support anymore.

He had already come into his own.

His future career would only get better.

At this point, Edward did not realize the crisis ahead.

“What about the penalty fee?” Sylvia quickly asked.

Edward said, “The penalty fee is one billion.”

“One billion?”

Edward nodded slightly.

Although this amount of money seemed quite a lot at the moment, in reality, for celebrities like them with high incomes, it wasn’t much.

They could earn it back within a year.

So, Edward wasn’t worried at all.

Even though his savings were nearly exhausted.

Sylvia frowned slightly, “Little brother, do our parents know about your contract dissolution?”

“I’ve severed ties with them!” Edward followed up, “Sylvia, let’s talk about something more cheerful. I plan on starting my own studio.”

Sylvia smiled and said, “Great, little brother, I support you!”

Edward looked at Sylvia, disbelief etched on his face, “Sylvia, do you really support me?”

“Of course.” Sylvia nodded.

Detailing Edward’s many years of experience in the entertainment circle, his connections, and fame, setting up his own studio was not a difficult task.

Seeing Sylvia’s firm nod, Edward was very excited.

Sylvia was one of the few supporters he had.

Other industry friends discouraged him from dissolving the contract, with some even questioning his capabilities.

Edward was speechless.

When he first started his career, he got some big projects because of the Thompson Clan.

But now, he was no longer the inexperienced youngster of the past.

He had connections, fame, fans, and popularity. Couldn’t he sustain a studio?

Sylvia chuckled, “Little brother, in my heart, you are the best!”

“Thank you, Sylvia.”

Edward was deeply moved.

The bond between siblings was unchanging, no matter what happened

“Little brother, what are you saying! You are my big brother, so no matter what, I will always believe in you unwaveringly!”

Now, Sylvia only has Edward.

Thus, she must make good use of him.

Edward continued, “Get your things, we’re going home.”

“But if I move to your place…” Sylvia hesitated, “Isn’t it inappropriate?”

“There’s nothing inappropriate about it.” Edward’s gaze was firm, “We are siblings.”

Sylvia sighed, “I’m just worried about dragging you down.”

“It’s okay, little brother is not afraid.”

Edward believes that he now possesses enough capability to protect Sylvia and provide her with a stable and prosperous life.

After speaking, Edward continued, “Sylvia, rest assured, even if the Thompson Clan doesn’t want you, your brother does. I’ll ensure you return to a life of luxury, you’ll remain the irreplaceable Young Miss of the Thompson family!”

“Little brother, thank you.” Sylvia threw her arms around Edward, overcome with emotion.

However, in a corner where Edward couldn’t see, Sylvia’s eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a calculating look.

Fortunately, the Thompson Clan had such a gullible person like Edward.

If not, she would really be at a dead end!

With Edward’s capabilities, providing her a lavish lifestyle was no problem.

Considering this, a slight smile appeared at the corners of Sylvia’s mouth.

Just then, Edward seemed to remember something, pulled out a card, and handed it to Sylvia, “Sylvia, this is my secondary card, take it.”

Sylvia was clever, and she knew she couldn’t directly accept Edward’s money at this time.

“Little brother, I don’t need money for now.”

“Just take it.” Edward shoved the card directly into Sylvia’s hand.
