Chapter 252 No one knew what Winter's face would look like when she found out, but she was feeling great for now. She thought she would be set for success with Charles's support, so why worry about the future? Winter did not waste any time. She went straight to Ethan at Whitemoor Company to ask him to break her contract. Sure, Winter was not the star she used to be, but Whitemoor had spent a lot of tand money making her famous. They were not too happy about letting her walk away for nothing.
However, Winter had spowerful friends. The Shaw and Harris families knew she was close to Charles, who was a big deal in their circles. Thus, they decided to help Winter talk to the big boss at Whitemoor.

The Shaw and Harris families were ready to do whatever it took, even if it meant paying up. Just like that, Winter was free from Whitemoor Company. She immediately reached out to Ronald, hoping he could make the negative news go away. Ronald said they should meet face-to-face and talk it over, especially if Winter was ready to sign on with him.
Winter hurried back to the Royal Star Entertainment building without a second thought. Her mood was different now. She was ready for anything. Her reputation was not great, and she was without a contract, so she was eager to get the weighty support of Royal Star Entertainment.
When Ronald handed her the contract, Winter signed it before even reading it. Ronald was taken aback and chuckled. "Ms. Shaw, don't you want to read the contract before signing it?" Winter gave him a small, confident smile. "I trust you, Mr. Wells. You're willing to helpeven when times are tough. I believe in you!" Ronald did not feel sorry for her or desire her. He just thought she was not very smart. Charles usually had a good eye for people, and he was right about Winter. She might not be the sharpest, but she knew how to play the game.
Ronald touched his chin, pleased with what Winter had said. "We should keep things professional," he suggested. "Ms. Shaw, you might want to take a closer look at the contract. After all, we're going to be working together. If you run into any trouble later on, we'll be in it together with Royal Star Entertainment. Right, Ms. Shaw?" Ronald's words were not straightforward, but even Winter, who was not the sharpest knife in the drawer, felt that something was off. She frowned a little and opened the contract she had shut earlier. Just one glance at the page made her face turn white.

Winter looked through the contract, shocked. Her expression was one of regret.
After reading all the pages, Winter could not hide her upset feelings. "Mr. Wells, I trusted you so much, she said, her voice tight. "This contract...
it's completely against my favor. Why didn't you tellbefore?"
Ronald smiled slightly. "I thought I gave you a heads-up, Ms. Shaw You were quicker than I expected. I had sthings to say, so I thought we'd go over it together." X
