Chapter 273 ut nonsense and act recklessly y out there because of his good looks, it was just a matter of time before Lucas As someone who liked to spout ruined his own reputation.
Bryce knew Maeve had a backup plan when he heard that.
As expected, a scandal about Lucas broke out in less than three days.
Lucas couldnât get into trouble before the best actor evaluation. Despite being extra careful, Brooks Media couldnât stop the reporters.
In an instant, news about Lucas sleeping with prostitutes and fans and having a soâyearâold sugar mommy spread widely on the internet.
His scandals caused an uproar on the internet. Many victims stood out to testify about Lucasâ actions in the past. They even had photos as evidence, leaving no room for Lucas to defend himself.
This situation escalated for three days, and Lucas was eventually blacklisted in the industry.
Brooks Media instantly fell into a panic. They had spent so much money to build his image, and everything was in vain overnight.
Moreover, Lucas had to pay a hefty sum of money for breaching the contracts, and his company had to pay most of them.
Bryce ce was watching the news on his phone in Maeveâs office. He asked, âHave you known this already?â
âWhy would I send Lucas to Brooks Media then?â
âYouâve planned this for so long and already thought of this since that time.â
Bryce had to admit that he had taken Maeve lightly.
Looking at the news about the astronomical amount Brooks Media had to pay for breaching the contracts, Maeve mumbled, âI wonder how Sergio would deal with this now.â
Mirage Group had poached many companies who used to collaborate with Brooks Group. Brooks Groupâs projects also suffered a huge loss. Besides, they had fallen out with the Scott family. And now, Brooks Media had to pay a huge sum of money as compensation. Sergio must be having a hard time at this point.
At this moment, the higherâups from Brooks Group were having an emergency meeting.
Everything seemed to be targeting Brooks Group recently. They couldnât help but think if someone had done that on purpose.
The one targeting them could only be Mirage Group.
âMr. Brooks, we canât keep this going. Brooks Group canât make it through if this goes on!â
âMirage Group is too much! How could they pull these tricks behind our back?â
âBrooks Media said we need to pay at least five billion dollars for breaching the contracts! Lucas canât behave himself, but heâs dragging the entire Brooks Group down! Mr. Brooks, you have to think of a solution!â
The board of directors went on and on with their comments, causing a commotion in the meeting room.
Sergio was slightly tired as he massaged his forehead. âEnough! Get out. Iâll have someone handle this Hearing that from Sergio, the directors left one by one.
After everyone left, Sergio finally opened his eyes and said to Larry, âGet this resolved. Make Lucas pay back every single cent he has earned during this period.â
âMr. Brooks, do you mean...
A cold glint flitted across Sergioâs eyes. âYou know what I mean. Make sure not to leave any traces behind.â
âOkay, Mr. Brooks.â
Larry hurriedly left the room.
Just then, Sergioâs phone rang. He answered the call, and a staffâs voice came from the other end of the line. âIs It Mr. Brooks?
Weâve found the clothes worn by Mrs. Brooks when she fell into the sea that day. Please come to verify and collect them.â
