Chapter 338
Jonathan knew Sophie didn’t want Mark and the others to know about the matter, so he still had their phones with him.
Thus, Jonathan didn’t know what to say when Sunny asked such a question.
Right now, the Public Relations Department is still handling the matter. It’s their first time dealing with such matters, so I wonder if they can handle it properly.
As the manager of The Wheelers, he was genuinely worried.
Even so, there was nothing he could do.
“Yeah, I’m here to see you guys. You’ve worked hard lately!” Sophie changed the topic.
Sunny walked to her side.
“Since you’re here to reward us, why didn’t you bring anything delicious for us? You should bring tasty food with you every time you come to see us!”
Something’s not right. Our album is selling like hotcakes right now, but she didn’t bring us anything tasty.
“Okay then. I’ll treat all of you to a nice meal later. What’s next on your schedule?” she asked Jonathan.
With that, Jonathan reported The Wheelers’ upcoming schedule to her.
“Okay. Please carry on.”
“Guys, wait for me. I have to talk to Ms. Tanner in private,” Jonathan said to the members of The Wheelers.
“Jonathan, what do you need to say to Sophie that we can’t know about? You’re our manager, aren’t you? So, what you do must have something to do with us,” said Sunny after sensing something was wrong.
Our career is going smoothly right now, but at the same time, I feel restless. How is it possible for Clayton to sit by without doing anything when we’re so successful? There’s no way he’ll let us off the hook so easily.
“What are you saying, Sunny? It’s nothing important. We’re on the top of the major music charts right now. You saw it yourself earlier, didn’t you?” Jonathan, panicking, spoke nervously.
Sunny didn’t know how to respond.
Yeah, he’s right. We topped the music charts this morning, so I guess I’m overthinking things. No matter what, Clayton is a big shot in the entertainment industry too. He won’t mess with our band on purpose, right?
Worried that they were going to find out soon, Jonathan could only say to Mark, “Mark, bring them to the car and wait for me there, okay?”
Mark nodded and left with the other four members.
Worry filled Jonathan’s face the moment The Wheelers left.
“Ms. Tanner, we can’t let this go on any longer. If we don’t do anything about it, things will really get out of hand!” Ms. Tanner’s still young, so there are a lot of things she doesn’t understand.
“Jonathan, I told you. All you need to do is take good care of them. I can handle this. Just trust me on this, will you?”
I’ve hired the best PR manager out there. Before we found out about this, my PR manager has already come up with a set of solutions to deal with it.
“I trust you, but I think you don’t understand what Clayton’s really like. Right now, the band from his company and our company have released an album at the same time. Besides, our band’s album is a bigger hit than his. Given how despicable he is, he will definitely not let this slide.”
Although he used to work for Sky Media in the past, he didn’t like Clayton since the latter was too ruthless.
They wouldn’t be able to deal with him at all.
“I get it. I’m going to see the manager of the PR department now. I assure you that all of this will be over tomorrow. Besides, the next few songs of The Wheelers will definitely be a hit too.”
Seeing how calm Sophie was despite everything that was going on, Jonathan didn’t know what else to say.
Am I really too timid?
However, he had been the manager of several celebrities. Therefore, he knew how bad the situation could get better than anyone else.
Nevertheless, when he saw the confidence in Sophie’s eyes, he couldn’t help believing that she could really do it.
“All you need to do now is to comfort every single one of them. They still don’t know about it yet. It’s best to keep it that way. But even if they did find out, I’m sure they can handle it.”
Since she had worked with The Wheelers for a long time, she understood their personality.
“Okay!”
Jonathan then went out to meet Mark and the others. When they saw him, they didn’t say anything. Only when Mark was alone with Jonathan did the former finally ask, “So, what exactly happened?”
Jonathan laughed it off. “Mark, you’re overthinking things. What can possibly happen? None of you have done anything you shouldn’t have, so no one can have anything against you.”
“Jonathan, I’m not a kid anymore. You’ve never taken our phones away from us before. Just tell me. No matter what happens, I can take it.”
Jonathan was at a loss for words.
Mark’s too smart. If he wasn’t a singer, I’m sure he’ll definitely become a scientist or something.
“Tell me. I won’t say anything to them.”
With that, Jonathan related the whole incident to him.
“That’s all. You don’t have to worry about it. Let’s leave it to the PR department to handle the rest.”
“Okay. You should bring them back and get some rest. I’ll go talk to Sophie.” No matter what, Mark was the leader of The Wheelers, so he had to help Sophie shoulder the responsibilities too.
He knew Sophie was having a meeting with the PR department when he got back to TS, so he waited outside.
Ysabelle saw him return. Seeing the expression on his face, she knew that he had heard about what happened.
“Don’t worry, Mark. Sophie said she knows what to do.”
It’s not a big deal. Even if Sophie can’t deal with it, I could always look for Uncle Tristan. He’ll surely help.
“I’m fine. Would you like a cup of coffee? I’ll go get one for you,” Mark offered. Ysabelle didn’t enter the conference room with Sophie, so she was waiting for Sophie too.
“No, no. I’ll go,” Ysabelle volunteered.
Without waiting for Mark to say anything, she dashed toward the pantry.
Mark was overwhelmed by guilt.
It’s all our fault. None of this would’ve happened to Sophie’s new company if it weren’t for us. She’s just a young lady. She didn’t need to bear any of this.
The meeting lasted for more than an hour.
“Don’t worry, Ms. Tanner. I’ll make sure to deal with this perfectly,” said Xandra Yandell, the manager of the PR department, smiling.
No matter what happened, Xandra always had a smile on her face.
“I trust you. If I didn’t, I wouldn’t have hired you.” No one other than the members of Sophie’s company knew that the manager of TS Entertainment’s PR department was Xandra, who had disappeared from the entertainment industry for three years.
In the past three years, countless entertainment companies tried scouting for her.
Sophie, on the other hand, effortlessly discovered Xandra and managed to get the latter to willingly work in TS Entertainment.
“Ms. Tanner, remember to prepare for a grand celebration dinner after this is over!” Xandra said confidently.
So what if the opponent’s Sky Media? Hah! They’re no match for me!
Sophie couldn’t help giggling when she saw Xandra’s carefree demeanor.
“Xandra, this is what I like about you!” Xandra had never let anything get to her.
“Likewise.” If it hadn’t been for Sophie, Xandra wouldn’t have reappeared in the entertainment industry.
