Chapter 9 Pay a Visit to the Hughes Group
Suzy grumbled in her heart. She changed her clothes and did some simple makeup before getting ready to go out.
Coincidentally, she ran into Evan again.
Although Suzy was scolding Evan in her heart, she did not dare to ridicule him in front of his face. At this moment, she even greeted him with a smile.
“Are you going to the company? Mr. Hughes.”
Although Evan had only seen Suzy a few times, he knew something was wrong with her meaningful smile.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
As expected, Suzy glanced at the several cars parked in the parking lot. She blinked and said, “Since your car is available, why don’t you lend me one?” After the company’s acquisition, Suzy needed to consume money in all aspects. Suzy no longer had the spare money to buy a car, so Evan’s Maserati was rightly suitable for her.
Evan sneered. “Why should I lend it to you?”
Suzy crossed her arms and said discontentedly, “We are on the same side now. It’s just a car. Mr. Hughes…”
Suzy opened her little mouth and kept muttering while Evan had already gotten in another car and left.
As she was about to call him petty, Evan threw the car keys out of the window. Startled, she hurriedly caught the keys.
It was Maserati’s car key that she had taken a fancy to!
“Thank you, Mr. Hughes. Take care.”
Evan saw her smiling face through the rearview mirror.
It was very hypocritical.
Suzy drove that charming red Maserati to Starlight Pictures. Because of the declaration released by Carters Group, many artists left her company. The only artists left were Victor Ryan, Diana Jones, and Flora Krane.
Coincidentally, they were the three artists that Suzy had taken a liking to.
Suzy found Victor. He was still in college and was only twenty years old.
Victor wore a black T-shirt, and his face was fair and clean. He looked at Suzy and asked in confusion, “Miss Carters, do you want me to develop in singing?”
Suzy nodded.
“It is not that I am trying to discourage you. Victor, you are not suited to acting.”
In her previous life, Victor had filmed many lousy dramas. Two years later, he became popular, not because of his acting but because of his singing and dancing.
With a faint smile, Victor said, “All right, Miss Carters. I’ll listen to you.”
Suzy did not expect Victor to be convinced so easily. She blinked and continued, “This is a newly emerged variety show from Somo TV. Take a look; if possible, I will sign you up.”
The variety show was called “The Shining Youth.” This was the first domestic variety show. Suzy knew this variety show would be a big hit after the broadcast. She also believed that Victor could make use of this stage fire.
After Suzy finished negotiating with Victor, Victor said, “Miss Carters, it’s lunchtime. Shall we have lunch together?”
Suzy was about to agree when the phone in her handbag rang. It was an unknown number. She walked to the window to pick it up.
“Come to the Hughes Group right now.”
Suzy recognized Evan’s voice and frowned slightly. “Mr. Hughes, I’m very busy. What’s the matter?”
Evan, “Take a nap with me.”
Suzy was speechless.
He needed her to accompany him for a nap. Was he all right?
Suzy subconsciously wanted to refuse, but Evan’s voice rang out again.
“CIRA’s third-year banquet, you must want to go, right?”
CIRA was an upscale luxury brand of the Hughes Group. Presumably, there would be a lot of guests at the banquet, so Suzy naturally wanted to bring her artists along.
Suzy gritted her teeth, enduring her dissatisfaction as she said, “I’ll be right there.”
After hanging up the phone, Suzy and Victor indicated they still had something to do.
After they left the office, Victor looked at Suzy’s retreating. Under his thick eyebrows, his almond-shaped eyes were a bit attractive. He lightly smiled, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.
