Vania knocked Bryan on the head. "Watch your manners when you talk to me whenever we're in the film set in the future. You have to rely on your own efforts to win awards, understand?"
He scratched his head with a grin. "Got it. I'm starving. Let's hurry up and go grab a bite."
"All right."
The three walked side by side, and when Hanson arrived, he saw Bryan and Jennifer clinging onto each of Vania's side as they talked and laughed. His expression darkened in an instant. This was exactly what he had envisioned. Subsequently, he coughed lightly, signaling to them that he had arrived.
As a familiar voice suddenly appeared in the happy atmosphere, Bryan and Jennifer immediately let go of Vania's arms, terrified.
"Uh, good to see you, President Luke."
"H-Hey there, Hanson."
Hanson ignored the two who were stealing his wife away from him and said to Vania, "Darling, I'm here to pick you up for lunch."
Hearing that, Vania trotted over and took his hand in hers. "All right."
Then, she turned toward Bryan and Jennifer. "Let's go together. Since we don't have much time, we'll eat something simple."
Bryan and Jennifer exchanged glances, feeling as if they were a third wheel.
However, they still nodded without realizing anything. "All right."
A warning glint appeared in Hanson's eyes, but it was useless, and the two walked beside Vania as if nothing had happened.
"Darling, wasn't this film supposed to end in four months?" Hanson recalled.
Vania nodded. "Yes, we were supposed to submit this film for the awards in six months."
Hanson let out a long sigh. It was fortunate that it would only last four months, and it would end in no time. "The company opened a new branch in Studio City, so I'll be here these days. I can accompany you."
Just then, Larry spoke up. "President Luke, when did we open a branch here? Why didn't I know about it?"
"Go and open one now," Hanson said through gritted teeth, yearning to toss his prattling assistant into outer space.
Larry covered his mouth, realizing that he had accidentally revealed the truth. "I'll get to it immediately."
"Hurry up." Hanson felt angry just from looking at him.
Holding in her laughter, Vania hurriedly comforted her husband, "Darling, I like being with you the most."
Then, she even kissed his cheek affectionately.
In an instant, Hanson's displeasure evaporated.
As he trailed behind Hanson, Bryan thought to himself, We can run companies like this now? Got it.
During lunch, Bryan and Jennifer sat opposite each other, and they subconsciously huffed at the other.
"There's a competition in six months already. Doesn't that mean that I'm going to win an award soon?" Bryan asked, looking for a topic.
As an unknown actor had never won an award in their first role, Jennifer clearly didn't believe him. "Why are you boasting? Hurry and eat."
"Since when was I boasting? Vania was the one who said I'll be an award-winning actor." Bryan looked at Vania. "Am I right, Vania?"
She nodded. "Yes."
Hearing that, Jennifer immediately got jealous. "Then what about me?"
"I said a long time ago that you'll win a second Best Actress award in the future."
At Vania's words, Jennifer immediately looked at Bryan with a smug and gleeful expression.
"Eat," he instructed, imitating her.
"You two look like a couple." Vania shook her head exasperatedly
