Entertainment Circle 소설 & 이야기

" I might be at war with my father, but if real trouble hits, his men would be here in a blink—raining hell. Carter? He had no backup. If he died, that was it. No revenge. Just a grave. Carter maintained eye contact, processing everything. I continued, voice low. “Ever wonder why some wars never happen? Why do men vanish without a trace? That’s the Circle. They decide before blood hits the pavement.” Carter gave a grim smile, slipping his copy of the signed document into his briefcase. “Now you know what the Circle is. But knowing and surviving it? Two different things.” Andrew got up. Meeting over. Carter shook his hand before turning to me. "I’ll handle it. Clean, no mess. You have my word

She hesitated. “But what?” Eric pressed. Echo chewed her lip, her eyes flicking to Sonia before answering. “There’s chatter about families. Dynasties. People whose names never appear in headlines but who control the money behind the money.” She clicked on one highlighted entry. “The file tags them as The Circle of Nine.” Jason let out a low whistle. “Sounds like a damn cult.” “Maybe it is,” Echo said. “Or maybe it’s worse a network so old and entrenched that it doesn’t need publicity to survive.

Lucas butted in. “The secret was kept by her ancestors so even her Mom doesn't know. Do you guys remember The Circle?” Selene asked us. The Circle was an organization that our parents told us about as bedtime stories. The Circle was an organization of witch slayers that helped the Alpha to hunt down all witches. “Yeah. Why bring them up when the organization doesn’t exist anymore?” Lucas asked. “Who says they don’t? Vivian’s Ex-mate found out that Vivian is a witch and has told The Circle about it.

Victor answered simply. “Everything.” Doctor Hayes added, “The Circle isn’t just a business alliance.” She pointed to the data drive in the metal case. “It’s a network controlling banks, political figures, intelligence agencies, and private corporations across the world.” Daniel muttered under his breath. “That’s not a network.” He looked at Lewis. “That’s a shadow government.” Lewis still hadn’t moved. “My father knew this?” Victor nodded. “Yes.” Elizabeth asked carefully, “So your father tried to expose his own father?”

This was her exception, and she believed Charmine would appreciate it. “HollyOak Entertainment? Claire Eastly? Who?” Charmine squinted her eyes, trying hard to recall the name while asking the rest of them who were present. Every word stung, fueling the fire that burned inside Claire. Her face was red with suppressed rage. ‘How could she not even know about Claire Eastly and HollyOak Entertainment?’ “We’re the top company in the entertainment industry.

REGINA There wasn’t anything really special about Eric Circle, or maybe it was because I had experienced Sun Entertainment. As soon as I entered the building, I was met by a receptionist. “How may I help you?” She asked. “I would like to see Sir Damian. I was referred here by someone known as Frankenstein.” I replied. “Well, Sir Damian is currently busy conducting a private audition with some of the girls.
