Chapter 23: A lame excuse
Chapter 23: A lame excuse
Kenny was in a rage, bellowing petulantly. “Get out of here!”
Gloria, who was standing outside the door, froze when she heard his words, and then left.
After a while, Kenny felt better.
Shi Ye knocked on the door, coming in with a stack of documents in his hand.
Kenny looked up, asking as if thinking of something. "Is Gloria back?"
Shi Ye silently put the documents on his desk, cleared his throat and said. "Madam came back a little while ago, she seeming to have come... for you......"
Then, Kenny remembered there was a woman knocking at the door just now.
The only woman living in this villa was Gloria.
Why would she come to him?
She couldn’t handle the news on the Internet, so she came to ask him for help?
With a gleam of interest in his dark eyes, Kenny leaned back in his chair, saying. "You call her here."
Shi Ye went out, soon coming over with Gloria.
Gloria opened the door, coming in, while Kenny was sitting in his executive chair behind his desk, just as he had been the last time.
She could see nothing but his arm on the arm rest and his head on the back of the chair.
Kenny asked her directly. "What do you want with me?"
That was what she should ask, wasn't it? Gloria thought.
As she came to him earlier, he just told her to get out, while now he asked her to come. Was he just asking her what she wanted?
Gloria wasn't embarrassed, either, and she just said what she was coming for. "I want to move out."
When she finished speaking, she saw that Kenny didn't respond, so she explained. "I have to go to work in a short time, and it's very inconvenient for me to go to work if I live here."
The man answered her concisely. "Well."
Well?
Did he agree or disagree?
Kenny was feeling terrible.
This ugly woman, who said so sweetly that she didn't mind his "poor health" yesterday , she actually wanted to move out of the villa today!!
She was daydreaming!
When Gloria saw that he was still silent, she said in a puzzled voice. "You..."
Kenny interrupted her coldly. "Do you think my place is like a vegetable market for you? You can come in and go out as you please."
Gloria heard the anger in his voice. Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
She didn't quite understand what she had done to make him angry.
Well, she couldn’t move, so she might as well stay.
On second thought, she thought she might have upset Kenny by asking to move out.
After all, for someone like Kenny who was "physically handicapped", he was very sensitive, and could be easily upset by others.
When Gloria thought that, her voice softened unconsciously. "I see. If you have nothing else to say, I will go out first."
It was the first time Kenny had ever heard her speak in such a soft voice.
After Kenny thought about the reason, Kenny's face darkened.
"Get out!"
Gloria thought to herself that Kenny really had a bad temper.
Kenny turning around, just threw the documents, which he hadn't put back, on his desk.
When Shi Ye saw his reaction, Shi Ye felt confused. The boss often lost his temper for no reason recently.
After a while, Kenny seemed to think of something, asking Shi Ye. "I remembered on Gloria's profile, Gloria graduated from film school?"
Shi Ye. "Yes, madam majored in drama, film and television literature."
A smile flashed over Kenny's face, while like a wild animal's triumph over its prey, he said in a deep voice. "So she works as a scriptwriter?"
Shi Ye froze for a moment, then nodded.
People thought Kenny was a loser with losing his sexual function, but no one knew that over the years, Kenny was also the behind-the-scenes boss of domestic's largest entertainment Group, Sheng Ding entertainment Group.
In just eight years, Sheng Ding entertainment Group had become the leading company of the film and television industry.
As Sheng Ding Group was a company that all film practitioners wanted to join, if Gloria really wanted to become a famous scriptwriter, she would definitely send out her resume to Sheng Ding Group.
Shi Ye understood the meaning of Kenny's words, nodding. "I'll do it now."
…
Gloria had sent out her resume to almost every film and television company in Huyang City.
However, she deliberately skipped Sheng Ding Group.
Why did she do it?
Sheng Ding Group and the film and television company that had signed with Edith, they were deadly foes.
And she certainly wouldn’t be hired.
Before waiting for news of her interview, she had to deal with the negative news that Anne had brought out.
She thought for a while before she dialed Anne's number.
"Tell me what you want." Anne's voice still sounded proud and triumphant.
Gloria pinched her nose, and her nasal voice sounded like she had been crying. "Sister, it was my fault, don't be mad at me, and shall we meet outside? Please don't hurt my mother."
"Do I have to come out to see you because you asked me to? Who do you think you are?"
Gloria knew Anne, so she spoke haltingly, begging. "Please."
"Speak up, I can't hear you."
"I beg you..."
"All right, then."
Gloria put down the phone, her eyes looking cold.
Anne, you must be very proud now.
But pretty soon, you couldn’t be proud anymore.
Before, Edith gave her not only the contact information of several marketing accounts, but also the contact information of several paparazzi.
The news that she "robbed" Anne's fiancé was still hot, so there's a lot of people out there who wanted to follow up on this and got good stories.
She intuitively picked one of the paparazzi, contacted him, sent him the address and time, and went out for the appointment.
As soon as Gloria left the house, Shi Ye went to the study, telling Kenny. "Madam has gone out."
Kenny looked up at Shi Ye, his eyes looking indifferent, which meant that "what does this have to do with me?"
Although Shi Ye was used to being stared at by Kenny with his cold eyes, Shi Ye still swallowed in fear.
"I suppose madam has something to do with Anne." He was a little curious about what madam was going to do with Anne, while he was sure the boss was just as curious as he was.
But Kenny only responded indifferently. "Well."
Shi Ye was confused, was he wrong?
The next minute, Kenny stood up, took his coat and walked out. "Since I haven't seen elder brother for a long time, I have to have a meal with him together."
Shi Ye. “ … ”
If he remembered correctly, Kenny’s elder brother had not returned from abroad.
The boss needed a reasonable excuse...
Even if Kenny's excuse was so lame, Shi Ye dared not directly debunking it.
…
Kenny driving the car, he followed Gloria to a restaurant.
He sitting in the car, watched Gloria enter the restaurant, and twenty minutes later, Anne arrived.
Then another man, dressing in ordinary clothes but acting suspiciously, entered the restaurant.
As the behind-the-scenes boss of the entertainment Group, Kenny was sure that the man following them was a paparazzo.
It was worth waiting in the car for so long, since it looked as if there would be a good show to see.
