Chapter 218
Clarissa was one of the few celebrities in the entertainment industry that had never had any scandals
since she debuted, nor had she ever shot any kissing or sex scenes. Coupled with her pure
appearance, she had always been the sweetheart of H Country. Even throughout Asia, she was a
popular star with tens of millions of fans, and the people who knew her were even hundreds of millions.
It could be said that she was a superstar, much more popular than Ashton, who was just a handsome
young star.
Because Clarissa was not only beautiful, but also very talented, with good acting skills, and a good
reputation in the circle. She was much better than Ashton and the like.
In other words, a celebrity like Ashton could be replaced at any time, but not Clarissa. She was an
actress with real talents.
She had always worked hard, so she especially looked down on the kind of people who had no talent,
but still liked to boast. Now in her opinion, Tom fell into this category. He was obviously just a bit-part
player, but arrogant and domineering, without any self-awareness. She looked down on such a person
the most.
"Tom..." Kili was about to cry.
Ashton was amused by Tom again. He laughed back angrily. "Hahaha, that's some tough talk! I've seen
some people, but I've never seen anyone like you. I think you're hallucinating. You think you're a big
shot, don't you?"
Director Chen was also extremely angry. He was already nervous about today's mission and needed to
shoot urgently. But now, he didn't even finish a shot. He was far behind the schedule. If this got to the
investor ZQ Media, then he would inevitably be scolded!
It was all because of this guy, Kili, who brought a psycho to his set!
Yes, in his eyes, Tom was a psychopath. If he wasn't a psychopath, he wouldn't have said such crazy
things.
If he had known this, he would have never promised Kili. Now he regretted it!
"Kili, take your man with you now and get out of here, as far as you can!" Director Chen was furious
and pointed at Kili, scolding.
"Director..." Kili's eyes went red.
"Get lost!" The director picked up the props next to him and threw them at Kili.
Kili gritted his teeth. He was now as depressed as if he had lost his mother and knew that his acting
career was over.
Originally, he had a dream of becoming a star, but now, it was shattered and destroyed by Tom.
For which, he could only breathe an enormous sigh. He didn't even have the strength to blame Tom, for
he was drowning in despair now.
He tugged at Tom and said feebly, "Let's go. We are officially finished."
However, how could Ashton let them go? He immediately stopped them and said with a gloomy
expression, "You don't get to leave until you kneel down to apologize to me. Otherwise, not a chance!"
Originally, Tom didn't plan to leave either. This Ashton was so arrogant. Not only was his acting bad,
but he was also showing off on the set, which brought down the whole crew. Most importantly, Ashton
insulted him and Kili, and it was even more impossible for him to let Ashton go easily.
"Kneel down and apologize?" When Tom heard this, he immediately laughed out loud.
Ashton cocked his head as if he was the God and everyone had to do as he said and then he Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.
demanded, "That's right! Both of you have to kneel down and apologize to me, or else you won't be
able to get away."
Kili shuddered and pleaded, "Ashton, we are sorry. You are a superstar. Why should you get angry with
small potatoes like us?"
Ashton saw that Kili had already pleaded in a panic, and his face was full of pride and arrogance.
"Spare me such nonsense. It's your stupid friend who dared to offend me! I'm not that patient. I will
count to three. If you don't kneel down by then, you will be sorry!"
After that, he began to count down. "One, two..."
There were many people present but no one dared to stand up and say a word. All of them succumbed
to Ashton's power. In fact, they didn't like Ashton's aggressive look either. To be fair, even if Tom had
offended Ashton first, Tom only said a few unpleasant words, and an apology should do. Now Ashton
wanted them to kneel down and apologize, which would be an insult to their dignity.
However, no matter how much they hated Ashton, they did not dare to disobey Ashton, so they all
looked at Tom and Kili sympathetically.
Kili was terrified. He pulled Tom and said in a panic, "Tom, we really messed up this time. It's better to
kneel down and apologize to him. Alas!"
Kili's eyes were red and he felt extremely aggrieved.
Tom looked at him very seriously. "Kili, don't worry. I said I wouldn't cause trouble for you and I meant it.
We don't have to kneel down. No matter who he is, he can't make us do it."
"But he's Ashton. He's a big star now! A word from him would put us out of jobs!" Kili was getting a little
angry now and glared at Tom.
Tom sneered and said, "So what if he is Ashton? He's just a small fish. I can force him out of the
business anytime I want with a phone call and let him fall from heaven to hell."
No one took Tom's words seriously. They all thought that Tom was really crazy to say such a thing at
this time.
"What? You stupid utility man. What did you just say? Did I hear you right?" Ashton laughed with a
exaggerated expression.
Then, he said provocatively and arrogantly, "Well, since you're so awesome, do it then!"
Tom glanced at him faintly. "Okay, as you wish."
Then, he took out his cell phone and made a call. "Elliot, which company does Ashton work for?"
Everyone saw that he really took out the phone and said it like it was the real deal. They all felt that he
was acting and talking to himself.
Ashton didn't seem to worry at all. He hugged his chest and looked at Tom with a playful expression as
if he was looking at a clown.
When Elliot heard the question, he was stunned and didn't dare to delay. He immediately said, "He is
an artist from HY Media, chairman. What's wrong?"
Tom said, "Call the boss of the HY Media right now. Tell him I want Ashton out of the picture. If he
doesn't agree, ZQ Media will terminate all cooperation with the HY Media from now on."
"This..." Elliot was shocked.
"Do as I say." Tom ordered coldly.
Elliot recognized the seriousness and a hint of anger in his words. He was shocked and immediately
said loudly, "Yes! Chairman, I'll call the boss of the HY Media right away!"
"Okay."
After Tom hung up the phone, no one believed him. They all thought that he was putting on a show. Did
he really think he is some big shot by asking HY Media to force Ashton out of the business?
Ashton was even more amused.
"Oh, I'm so scared. Are you scaring me with the HY Media? Do you know that I'm the pillar of the HY
Media now? What an idiot." Ashton was not afraid of Tom at all and ridiculed him with contempt.
Kili also felt that Tom was out of his mind, and his complaints about Tom were growing.
"Well, I don't have the patience to play with you, trash." Ashton was impatient and wanted to go for
Tom. However, at this moment, the phone of the assistant beside him rang and the assistant answered
the phone. After listening for a while, the assistant suddenly became frightened and said to Ashton in a
trembling tone, "Ashton, oh, no, it's not good..."
