The second morning, Shirley was awakened by the bird's singing outside the window. Last night, she cried and got tired. She didn't know when she fell asleep. When she got up and washed up, she found that her eyes were swollen. She had no choice but to wear sunglasses all day long. After crying so hard yesterday, she felt better.
But when she arrived at the company, she heard a bad news. The manager of the financial department came to report the work to Shirley, telling her that even if she sold all her property, there were still many problems with the company's assets. It was known to all that screening TV series was a big and expensive project, and hiring actors, clothing, props and other aspects all needed a lot of money. At present, the reason why the new drama could be filmed smoothly was that it had just begun. But as time went by, it would cost more and more. If they wanted to achieve good results, they had to spend a lot of money into it.
However, Shirley had lost everything. Therefore, she had borrowed some debts from the bank and there would be interest. But Shirley was confident that the drama would definitely attract the attention of the audience.
Samuel had been observing the situation of Shirley all the time, and he had planted more spies in the Xia Film Company in order to find out what kind of person Shirley was. Therefore, Samuel was the first one to know that she borrowed money.
Samuel thought, 'this woman is really brave. She dares to take risks.' He had always thought that a woman would definitely shrink back when she came to manage a company, but Shirley had tried every means, not giving up, even if she would gone bankrupt. But now, he was a little worried about Shirley. She even borrowed money. Had she ever thought about what she would face if she failed? If she just sold her property and the new drama didn't have much audience rating, the worst result was that her company went bankrupt and she had nothing. She could stay at home all the time and Samuel could raise her. After all, she was his legal wife. However, once she borrowed money, it was not a big deal if she succeeded. But if she failed, she would have to pay a lot of debt. Was this woman so confident that she wouldn't fail?
But Samuel didn't know what else Shirley could do to go over the crisis. Once this path started, she had to go on. In Shirley's eyes, she had never given up halfway, so she would hold out until the last. Maybe it was because although she was the CEO of a company now, she was indeed a fresh graduate student. There was a saying that a newborn calf was not afraid of a tiger, wasn't it? It might be Shirley.
Soon, Shirley raised enough money and the filming went smoothly. Because she didn't have to worry about the financial problem anymore, everything was going in an orderly way.
However, someone didn't want to see Shirley live a good life, and that was Karla. Because she was filming her play in the same place with Shirley, she could easily know how the shooting of Shirley's crew was going on.
Recently, she heard that Shirley's new drama went well, so she was very unhappy.
When she came back home from the shooting, Damon had already got off work and waited for her to have dinner with him. She knew that after she had been slapped last time, though she said that she didn't want Damon to get even with Shirley and he also agreed, Karla knew him well and he would never let it go, so he must have looked for Shirley and taught her a hard lesson. Therefore, she felt that she was the one Damon loved the most in the world. She could not help but feel a little proud. She believed that as long as she asked, Damon would definitely agree to her request.
When the two of them were having dinner, Karla asked Damon tentatively.
"Damon, I heard that Shirley's new play goes well recently."
"Yes, I know. What's wrong?" Damon answered casually. Seeing that he didn't have much reaction, she continued.
"Can you put more pressure on her company?" It was the first time that Karla had made such a request to Damon. Although Damon knew that the two of them didn't get along well with each other, he thought it was a one-sided problem of Shirley and she had been bullying Karla. But since that was the case, why did Karla make such a request? Karla was not such a girl. Damon didn't understand.
"Why? Why did you make such a request?" Damon looked at Karla and asked.
Karla was so complacent that she thought Damon would agree to her request without hesitation. However, Damon was not a fool. Although he loved Karla very much, he would not do whatever she said. He had his own thoughts and ideas.
Being stared at by Damon, Karla felt guilty and a little regretful for what she had just said, but Damon had heard it, so she had to go on.
"Damon, in fact, there are some things I haven't told you all the time." Karla lowered her head and showed a pitiful look. Her index fingers kept moving, as if it was very difficult to tell.
