The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 2814

"Why you! I—"

Cecil hung up on Claire before she could finish her sentence. Serena looked at her with a worried expression.

"What are we going to do? I've warned you countless times not to work with such a sneaky guy, but you just wouldn't listen. Now you're caught in the middle. Mister Sherman thinks this has nothing to do with you and is going after Cecil directly, but Cecil is pinning it all on you. What are we going to do?"

She paced anxiously, making Claire dizzy with her frantic energy.

"Can't you think of a solution instead of just creating anxiety? What use are you to me if you can't even handle this small matter?" She threw her phone down forcefully, making everyone in the room hold their breath.

"You need to come up with a solution fast! I'm doing this for the sake of the team. How can I pay all of your salaries if I don't have the publicity? We're all in the same boat, and we should be united, not against each other, right?"

Suddenly, Claire smiled and took Serena's hand. "I'm sorry, Serena. I was too impatient. I'm just worried about everyone's future. Let's quickly come up with a plan."

Serena could not help but want to pull her hand away from Claire's grip. From the moment she started working with her, she had watched her become increasingly unstable emotionally.

Serena hesitated but ultimately got to reassuring her. "Claire, we all know what you want to achieve. You want to make contemporary dance better, but we don't need to resort to such means. You're a dancer, and you shouldn't get involved in these worldly matters. Can you still dance on stage with a single-minded focus? Do you remember why I was so determined to sign you when we first met?"

Claire nodded. "Of course I remember. At that time, I was just an unknown dancer trying to make it abroad, and no stage was willing to hire me. It was you who saw the passion in me. I'm very grateful to you. If it weren't for you, I might still be dancing in some unknown place. But I have to be honest, Serene… Since we returned to the country, you must've noticed how rapidly the outside world is changing, especially with the help of the Internet.

"You may be famous today, but you could disappear from the public eye tomorrow. I want to promote contemporary dance, and the best way to do that is to ride the online wave. I hope you can join me, broaden your horizons, and not always be confined to the small dance theaters of the past. Okay?"
