The Protector III

Part 87

Chapter 487

Zoey shook with rage in front of the television.

She was on the verge of tears.

She didn't think that Horace and Maurice would pull such a trick.

Oriental Star Group has become public enemy number one.

Just the public's opinion is enough to put the pressure on Oriental, not to mention

if all the huge corporations decides to close in on us.

"Don't be mad anymore, honey," Levi assured her as he pulled her into his arms.

"Let him sit on that high horse of his for now. I'll make it clear to them that it's just

as easy for them to hit rock bottom as it is to be loved by everyone!"

"Do you have a plan in mind, Darling?" asked Zoey.

"Not at the moment, but remember the saying, the heavens are always

watching!" Levi replied with a smile.

The charity gala was a success.

Horace achieved two of his goals.

One, to bring fame and fortune to Triple Group.

Two, to send Oriental Star Group into chaos.

The next day, Zoey arrived at work and noticed how gloomy the atmosphere was.

Gerry Wade and the others hadn't slept all night, so their eyes were extremely

puffy.

Everyone turned to Zoey for help.

Evidently, the current situation was beyond their control. There was no way they

could handle what was happening.

"Mr. Shawn Timmons and a few screenwriters are here to see you, Ms. Lopez,"

the assistant said to Zoey.

"Let them in."

Zoey knew what was about to happen.

Shawn Timmons walked into the office with over thirty other people following

closely behind.

"Sorry, Ms. Lopez. We'd like to resign. We can't carry on working for Oriental Star

Group after what happened," he explained.

Everyone else lowered their heads, feeling rather awkward.

Zoey smiled. "It's fine. You have every right to leave. I accept your resignation."

Shawn and the others were stunned.

They didn't think she would let them go so easily.

Over thirty directors, screenwriters and producers had just given in their

resignation notice.

These individuals were the foundation of Oriental Star Group.

Aside from actors, they were the most important crew members when it came to

making a film.

That was right.

Shawn and the rest had been bought over by Maurice Lorraine.

In fact, Horace had offered Shawn thirty million to get everyone else to leave the

company.

Shawn stopped by the special effects studio before leaving.

"Come with us, James. There's no point staying here with Oriental Star!"

Shawn tried to convince the special effects team to join him.

The head of the special effects department, James Wood, responded with a

smile, "I'm good. You guys go on ahead! I'm indebted to Oriental. I've worked for

many companies, but this is the only one that has ever treated the special effects

team with respect and taken us seriously. I'll never leave, no matter what."

"You're just a stubborn old fart who refuses to change!" Shawn raged at him. "You

won't have it easy!"

He then walked away with his group.

"Come join us, Helena. You're famous now, so you shouldn't stay here anymore!"

The man tried to recruit Helena Engler too.

With this, Horace would have to give me at least three million.

However, Helena turned him down. "I won't leave. I'll always stay with Ms.

Lopez!"

"Fine. You can keep giving yourself airs then. You'll only starve if you keep up

with that attitude!" Shawn sneered.

Zoey was touched to see everyone who stayed.

"This crisis will be over real soon. Please trust me on this!" she declared.

She believed in Levi.

If Levi said he could solve this, there was no doubt he could.

After all, he had the mysterious owner of Morris Group backing him.

He's omnipotent!

If the man could easily deal with Scott Yates and Sebastian Lopez of South City,

whatever Oriental Star Group was facing right now would be a piece of cake.
