In Greenfield, Zoey peered at her computer screen; dark circles had appeared down her eyes. As Elvis pushed open the door, his voice carried a hint of weariness too.
"Why so many galas lately? Can you handle it all?"
Rubbing her temples, Zoey cracked a smile, "I'm managing. You guys have been working hard these past few days."
She had just recovered from an illness and returned to work the day before. Elvis had been running things while she was out.
"Zoey, the meeting today might include a run-in with Fitch. The Haskins family is involved in this joint awards show we're working on, and they're footing the bill."
A star-studded awards ceremony meant big business. The celebs were basically walking billboards, with every accessory, even the pins on their lapels, serving as advertisements.
The Haskins family had thrown their latest car model into the mix, set for display at their dealership next month. The celebs would strut past this car on the red carpet, and with the Haskins family being the sole sponsor, the spotlight would be theirs.
Star Movie Group's talent had shone this year, with their leading stars nominated for awards. As the head honcho, Zoey needed to be there.
The Haskins family's car brand coveted the endorsement of A-listers like Wilma and Cornelia. Their every move by the car, every pose, had to be on point.
Zoey had dinner scheduled with the brand to hash out the red carpet details. But a CEO like Fitch wouldn't usually step into such a scene. After all, the Haskins family’s subsidiaries were vast, and car wasn’t their leading brand.
The most illustrious was electronics, but their top-secret was talents in weapon manufacturing, who had been conducting close cooperation with the higher-ups. Below this level, there were various electronics, including cars and smartphones, etc.
Word was they'd developed Windhelm's only chip. This year, the Haskins family business had developed exceedingly fast, with their new electric car release, which would come into the market this time.
Zoey, well-briefed, headed to dinner with Wilma in tow after making sure the appointment. Cornelia was out of town filming, returning only the day before the ceremony.
Their meeting was with a division president of the Haskins family. His eyes lit up at the sight of Zoey.

The readers' comments on the novel: Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja)
Author, would you story about Ryan settling down and another story on Eric regaining his body and memories back from Patrick, and Eric also settling down as I find it so disheartening for him to have gone through what he went through at the research institute, and I'll like for him to get his "golden boy" life back though, not at the detriment of Ian....
When will the author update to finish Beck's story? What about Dylan and Tyler's love lives? Also, I'll like the author to write on Wilma and Elvis ending up together as she was quite persistent in pursuing him. And Shawn's story, Cornelia Sullivan and Omar Casson. Also, a little write-up on Jeff (Ian's assistant) love life, too. Thanks, author for updating....
