Chapter 366: Chapter 360 – It’s up to you to apologize or not (Part 2)

Anyway, it is only an advertisement. If Owen Things, being wealthy and carefree, does not care, then Nolan naturally doesn’t mind. Nolan simply called over his assistant director and assistant and started to explain some issues about the scenes and images. He stopped asking about this matter. Once it’s dealt with, he could just continue shooting. After all, it was only an advertisement. It does not matter if it takes an extra day or two.

Elsewhere, this man had already caught up with Elias, “Mr. Elias.” Once he had caught up with Elias, the man was not as polite anymore. Even though these soccer stars have endorsement contracts with Owen Things, Owen Things needn’t be overly cautious about them.

“Mr. Mason, what is the problem?” Elias turned back angrily and asked Mason.

“Of course, I hope that you can apologize to Miss Kay Lee.” Mason asked with a serious expression.

Elias paused, wondering why it seemed like his fame outweighed Kay Lee’s? “Mr. Mason, are you joking?” Elias’s agent directly stated on the side.

Mason glanced at Elias’s agent. Elias’s agent was also a famous agent in the circle, otherwise he would not have a superstar like Elias. Emery Finn, a master of more than three superstars, in addition to other first and second-tier soccer players, amounting in total to seven or eight.

“Mr. Emery, are you saying that Elias’s behaviour is appropriate?” Mason’s expression was stern.

Emery hesitated momentarily. Elias’s behaviour certainly wasn’t appropriate. If it was for the sake of the plot, it would be acceptable, as they were all professional actors. However, if Elias acted like this, even if the plot had been agreed upon, then it would count as an infringement. This is subjective behaviour, reflecting an individual’s actions. This has nothing to do with the scale of the behaviour.

If the female actress agrees, then even shooting actual bed scenes and intimate scenes is okay, because these are mutually agreed upon. But if she doesn’t agree, even a slight transgression counts as abuse or harassment. Be it in North Federation, Southern Federation, or any country, this is unacceptable.

The most important thing is, if Owen Things makes its stance clear, after all, it was a commercial that had been filmed, there were recorded video materials. And there were sound recording devices on the side. If this video is broadcasted, it would have a massive impact on Elias’s reputation. Elias is a superstar, no doubt, but a morally corrupted superstar would be rejected by everyone. His fan base would also greatly reduce.

A reduction in fans means a decrease in income. A decrease in income means less money for Emery. However, although these factors are worth considering, Elias had already been slapped by Kay Lee, a very hard slap. Given Elias’s current mood, he likely found it difficult to apologise.

“Mr. Mason, it is safe to say that Mr. Elias did not do this intentionally. After all, my player isn’t a professional actor. He had rehearsed the script so many times that it would be normal for him to confuse it once. Moreover, wasn’t the actress a bit too much? Even if Elias accidentally crossed the line, she should not have slapped him so hard. Also, among people in the entertainment industry, who is so pure…” Emery, as a veteran agent, quickly found an excuse and immediately began speaking.

However, before he could finish his statement, he was interrupted by Mason, “Mr. Emery, I hope that you will choose your words carefully.” Mason’s heart jumped, damn it. He almost fully understood what Emery wanted to continue saying but if these words were spoken, the consequences would be profoundly unpleasant. He didn’t know the young man, didn’t know who he was, but damn it, he had been strictly told by the upper management not to offend Kay Lee.

Although Mason was unsure about Kay Lee’s identity and background, he believed that if upper management seriously warned him about this matter, then it means Kay Lee has an unimaginable background. He was just a small character. Anyway, with the support from Owen Things, what’s there to be scared of? Even if there was a lawsuit, he would not have to pay for lawyers. Consequently, Mason directly stopped Emery from speaking out the remaining part of his sentence. If this statement were heard, the situation would definitely worsen.

Mason did not think that the young man, who looked impressive, was a good person to deal with.

“Mr. Mason, if your intentions are to have me apologize, then you don’t have to say it. I will not apologize, not now, not ever!” At this point, Elias had calmed down a bit. He knew that making a big deal of this wouldn’t benefit him, especially when he knew that he had crossed the line. If the news was leaked out by the media, he would be the one suffering in the end.

But if you think that he would apologize after being slapped by a woman, don’t even think about it! Saying that, Elias directly walked away. Mason didn’t bother to respond to Elias, he turned to speak to Emery directly: “Mr. Emery, if your athlete insists on being like this, then we, Owen Things, will consider terminating the endorsement contract. As for the specifics, a professional lawyer will speak with you. Also, one last thing, the gentleman asked me to leave a message with you: If you do not apologize now, you will regret it.”

Mason himself was unsure if he was being too arbitrary. Anyway, he did not know why he included the last sentence when he was speaking. And as he was coming over, Mason kept a secret trick up his sleeve. He turned on the recording function of his cell phone to avoid any disputes that could lead to troubles with the company.

Mason did this to protect himself. After all, the instructions from Owen Things were still fresh in his mind. The issue is that although they had given him instructions, and he had followed them, if the company still decided to blame him, he would have some proof.

Mason’s words seemed to have crossed the line, Emery paused for a moment before stating angrily: “If this is the case, then there’s nothing more to discuss. Let the lawyers handle it.” Emery immediately turned around and followed Elias. However, neither Emery nor Elias noticed the look of hesitation on the faces of their four bodyguards.

The four bodyguards glanced at one another before following. However, they were all apprehensive. Perhaps Elias and Emery did not understand what the situation meant. But they did. Mason’s last sentence might not have been a threat… but a statement of fact …

Watching their retreating figures, Mason shook his head. He took out his cell phone from his pocket, ended the recording, picked up the phone, and made a call. The four bodyguards following Elias and Emery exchanged a glance again. The one on the left made a few gestures with his hands, basically asking: “Should we tell them?”
