Her Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 453

Chapter 453 Super High Salary for a Movie Appearance

Twenty thousand?

This is an amount that Veronica didn’t even dare dream of. But she knew one thing for sure—the reason she was promised such a high salary was because of Stephen and Larry’s blessing, and that she had good fighting skills.

“Mr. Director, you… don’t actually need to give me that much.” She was guilt-ridden at this point. “I will only be starring in this fight scene. You are giving me too much money. I feel bad about accepting it.”

Her words made Johansson raise his chin as he let out a hearty laugh. “With your ability, you are worth the price. Besides, I am looking forward to our future collaboration.”

Action actors were already as rare as they were. Most fight scenes relied on either bridge suspension cables or special effects, and neither could get Johansson the effect he wanted.

He would always pay attention to action actors as he appreciated them.

This was why he was willing to wait for Veronica the whole day.

Even though he seemed solemn just now, that was just his attitude toward work. He had never meant to put Veronica on the spot.

After all, he had come across a lot of beautiful women like her who people around them would honey their recommendation of these women, only for them to fall short of his expectations in all ways possible.

It was proven now that him waiting on Veronica was worth it.

“I look forward to working with you too.” She nodded with a smile on her face.

She was glad that she had signed a reasonable contract with Sean because she was Elizabeth’s granddaughter.

It was written in black and white that other than modeling, she would not get involved in doing anything beyond that, such as being an anchor, an actress and the like.

On top of that, the contract would only last for a year.

It was only after she joined Starshine that she learned that the minimum period for a model’s contract was three years.

Hers, however, was only a year.

They were talking about the contract after they had gotten more familiar with each other when Sean told her, “When we signed the contract with you, I didn’t think you would stay in our company for long after I knew that you were the god-granddaughter of Elizabeth Hutchinson. If I had known that the Madam wouldn’t interfere with your work, you would have had to sign a three-year contract like the rest of them as well.”

Most bluebloods didn’t like actors and actresses very much.

After all, actors would have to hug or kiss on screen.

It might just be another requirement of the occupation, but it wasn’t something notable families could accept.

It was normal for Sean to have reservations about this.

But what Veronica didn’t know was that Sean signing a one-year contract with her, and not interfering with anything else she did, was not Sean’s intention. It was Matthew who wanted this for her.

How would Sean have the courage to sign a long-term contract with her when Matthew had personally called him for a ‘friendly greeting’?

Maybe if he didn’t want Starshine anymore, that was!

“It’s rather late. You can go to the set tomorrow to film this scene.” After Johansson finished speaking, he suddenly remembered that Veronica had to work. “Do you have the time?” he added.

He had already asked her about the contract she signed with Starshine Media Agency after the long chat they had.

Naturally, he felt at ease about his collaboration with her after confirming that her contracted company would not interfere with her other matters. Not only that, she had even showered Starshine in praise, saying that it was a legitimate company.

“I have time tomorrow.” Veronica nodded quickly, unable to hide her excitement.

When everything was wrapped up, Larry and Stephen invited Veronica for a meal together again. The three then went to a sushi restaurant, where they found the most quiet corner to sit in.

Because they all wore masks and were dressed casually and kept a low profile, they didn’t attract any attention from the people around them.
