Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Eau Amore has now declared that Violeta is their spokesperson, and Tracy has become the biggest laughingstocks in the domestic entertainment industry. Although no one openly voices their opinions, behind closed doors, everyone is mocking her.

It's absolutely ridiculous.

Since Evelina's arrival, and particularly following the global haute couture scandal, Tracy has felt mistreated by the company, which has never addressed the issue properly. Winnie remarked, "Given how things have turned out now..."

Tracy suddenly shouted in frustration, "I want to end my contract with the company!"

...

Winnie's voice abruptly cut off, and the assistant next to her was also taken aback.

"Tracy, what are you talking about?"

Tracy said with determination, "I've made my decision. I want to end my contract with the company."

Winnie responded, "Have you considered this carefully? You can't just act on impulse."

Tracy replied, "I've given it a lot of thought. Actually, this has been on my mind ever since Evelina started getting better projects."

Before, it was manageable for her to compete with Violeta.

Violeta's work had received numerous awards, making it hard for Tracy to measure up.

But now, with Evelina's projects continuously improving, the competition between their two teams had become fierce, leaving Tracy frequently drained.

However, she couldn't afford to take a break, fearing she might be overshadowed by Evelina.

At 29 years old, Tracy was nearing thirty.

She believed her future at Apex Entertainment had hit a dead end, with Violeta in front of her and Evelina close behind. If she couldn't surpass Violeta, Evelina would eventually overtake her. Given this situation, it seemed wiser to leave now.

Additionally, Davy is pushing her to begin the In Vitro Fertilization procedure. Tracy hesitated, aware that starting to conceive would likely reduce the intensity of her work.

It was only a matter of time before Evelina surpassed her.

Apex is focused on developing more A-list celebrities.

But Tracy can't continue any longer. She's finished with the game. She wants out.

This incident was the catalyst that triggered all the negative emotions she had built up over the years.

Years of accumulation had worn her out both physically and mentally, leading her to decide to end the contract.

Tracy had recently signed on for an additional five years.

Since the current term isn't over, ending the contract now would require her to pay a substantial penalty fee.

As a top company in the entertainment industry, Apex doesn't impose excessive penalty fee.

There's no need for outrageous

penalties to keep artists who have decided to leave, as it could harm relationships and harm the

swnovel

company's reputation. No one would want to join Apex in the future.

Apex's aim isn't to force artists to stay.

Apex's strength lies in its exceptional talent development skills.

With the support of a big company, they offer ample resources and stability.

As long as artists see that remaining with the company offers greater advantages than leaving, they are unlikely to depart easily.

Additionally, other places may not always be more favorable.

Moving from Apex to another big company might not guarantee an improvement.

Tracy is well aware of this, which is why deciding to end her contract with Apex was a necessary choice for her.

Tracy chose to leave the company.

Winnie's sole A-list artist was Tracy

If Tracy left, she would need to

again with

a new artist, essentially

starting from the beginning.

Reflecting on Lance's double standards, along with the argument she had with him in the office ...

There was a possibility that Lance might create difficulties for her in the future.

As a result, Winnie made a decisive choice. She planned to leave alongside Tracy.

"Tracy, once you leave the company, are you thinking of joining another company or starting your own studio?"

Tracy hasn't made any decisions yet.

Having experienced the environment

of a big company before, she prefers

not to be constrained by others, so

she's most likely to set up her own studio.

Her choice is reminiscent of Lydia's decision from back then.

"I'm not certain at the moment, but I'm leaning towards starting my own studio. Why do you ask, Winnie?"

"Tracy, let's leave together."

"Are you serious?"

After years of collaborating with Winnie, changing managers might not necessarily be the best fit.

If Winnie is willing to leave with her, that would be ideal.

She assumed that Winnie wouldn't want to leave the company.
