"Don't call the police yet."
Olivia Thompson's first reaction was to call Bertha Haines to confirm that she was really in trouble, then contact Mr. Howard for assistance. If it was just a misunderstanding, offending the brand wouldn't be a wise move.
The ringtone echoed again and again, but no one answered.
Olivia Thompson started to get anxious. Although unspoken rules existed everywhere in the industry, with some willingly submitting to them, others compromising after being crushed, or even being forced into situations against their will, she didn't want such things to happen to her own artists.
"Mr. Howard, Ivy might be in trouble."
Olivia Thompson ended up calling Marvin Howard.
"She went to dinner with Sacred Square's person in charge tonight, and since entering, she's lost contact, can't reach her by phone. Mia Collins said she thought she heard cries for help outside."
