Chapter 256 Break Your Promise
Chapter 256 Break Your Promise
No one had expected that such a situation would happen in a competition. And in the eyes of outsiders,
after being insulted, Vana was still elegant and graceful, which made people like her.
At this time, Renee and other contestants were around Vana to comfort her. Vana nodded to express
her thanks. At last, all the people on the stage dispersed, and Vana bowed to the crowd again to
apologize.
Vana's behavior was very pleasing, and instantly countless people were attracted by her.
"What's her name? I think she is so beautiful!"
"Vana Gu. She is the person who has been on the trending of Micro-blog before."
"If my memory serves me right, there is someone whose name is exactly the same as hers. And there
was also a scandal, right?"
"No, she was the one who was involved in the scandal." NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
"How could it be possible? How could such a beautiful, kind and generous person like her have such a
scandal? Even if it was her, I think she was forced to do so. Moreover, the news of sex slave was a big
blow to her, but she, a weak woman, had to bear it. I suddenly felt that she was so miserable. And I feel
bad for her!"
"In fact, she was already very helpless when she encountered that kind of thing. And she was even
trolled on the Internet. I think that those trolls should be shot. They really don't know right from wrong."
Soon after, many people began to defend Vana. The situation on the scene was almost in favor of
Vana.
No one knew what was going on under the stage. After Wesley was taken away, the hostess shifted
everyone's attention and told everyone that the contestant, Halia, couldn't get the certificate on the
stage for some special reason, so the studio of Halia took the honor certificate on behalf of her.
The appearance of Renee made everyone excited. At the same time, they knew that Halia was very
well-connected. Halia was actually able to ask the boss of Song Studio to help her get the certificate. It
seemed that Halia was really important.
As the certificates of this round were issued, Vana and the other designers were asked to leave the
stage. Then a piece of music sounded on the stage. In less than ten minutes, Vana was called aside by
a man in a black suit.
Vana was confused, but the man in black suit was very serious. He took Vana aside and asked directly,
"Mr. Brandon asked me to ask you why you chose to retreat at this time."
Vana immediately realized that this man was sent by Brandon.
Vana held her arms and pretended to be angry, but her expression showed a hint of grievance. "You
saw it on the stage just now. Wesley took away my chance to speak and tried to stop me from carrying
out the plan. Then he attacked me with words when I made a comment, and forced me to shut up.
When I was about to ask Mr. Brandon for help, he pulled me down. It was true. I didn't mean for this to
happen."
The man in the suit thought for a while, and finally squinted at Vana. "I know what you are worried
about. Mr. Brandon also said that if you seize the opportunity later, he will not treat you shabbily.
Besides, the plan of your withdrawal will be carried out as usual. The next step is the voting time of the
investors. If you find an opportunity, you must take action, or there will be no chance."
Vana chuckled and continued to fold her arms to look at the man in suit. "But I'm not in a hurry now."
The man in the suit widened his eyes. "What do you mean?"
"As you can see, my design has been recognized by the public. If I don't quit the competition, I may
become the next Renee. The money that Mr. Brandon gave me can indeed stop me from achieving my
ambition, but now I feel that tens of thousands of dollars doesn't seem to be worth it, so..."
Vana didn't say anything more. The man in suit looked at her seriously for a while and finally said, "Wait
a minute. I'll call Mr. Brandon."
Vana nodded and saw the man in suit walking aside and quickly dialing a number.
Half of the ten minutes had passed, and Vana knew that Brandon would want to get this over with as
soon as possible, so this was the best time to extort money from Brandon, and also the best time for
Vana to collect evidence.
After a while, the man in suit came back with his phone in his hand. "Mr. Brandon has something to tell
you!"
Vana took the phone, but she was still wary of the other side, hoping not to be recorded. So she called
Mr. Brandon obsequiously.
Then, there was a low voice from the other end of the phone, "Vana, are you an ungrateful person? I
did this to make you and me a win-win situation. If you defeat Renee, you will have plenty of chances to
be famous. Okay?"
Speechless in the darkness, Vana rolled her eyes and said timidly, "Mr. Brandon, I know I have
promised you to do that. I have taken your money and should do it for you, but I regret it. Mrs. Renee
has such a great influence in H Country. I can't do anything that hurts the country. Mr. Brandon, please
don't push me, okay?"
"Fuck off, you son of a bitch! Walter just said that you wanted to demand an exorbitant price and you
wanted to threaten me. You want money? Well, I'll give you another fifty thousand dollars. I'll transfer
the money to you as soon as it's done."
Vana raised her eyebrow and muttered dismissively, "Fifty thousand? Mr. Brandon, do you really think
my ambition is worth so little money? Since Mr. Brandon has pointed it out, I won't play tricks. To tell
you the truth, with my current ability, it is possible for me to become the designer of SS Jewelry, and
the endorsement fee of SS Jewelry alone is five hundred thousand dollars. You should understand
what I mean!"
Brandon panicked at the other end of the phone. He suddenly couldn't find his voice and stuttered,
"You... What do you mean? You want me to compensate for your endorsement fee?"
"That's right. I gave up a great opportunity with Renee for you, so I should get something from you,
right?"
Obviously, Brandon was at a disadvantage. He continued to say guiltily, "But isn't it good for us to
defeat Renee together? In the future, the two names of us in H Country will be immortal, and there will
be more business cooperation. It is very promising, maybe more than 500 thousand dollars or 1 million
dollars you're getting now. How can you give up such a long-term return because of the current
interests? You should learn to be more ambitious from me."
Indeed, Vana was ambitious, but her ambition was in direct proportion to her conscience. She couldn't
go against her conscience because of her ambition. She couldn't do such a thing.
