Chapter 534
“Not only are you treating me to dinner, but you also got me a gift, huh?” Paula poked Genevieve playfully with her finger.
After opening the gift box, Paula took out an oil painting.
The woman immediately handled the piece of art with much care when she noticed who the artist was.
Seeing how Paula’s eyes lit up, Genevieve could tell that the woman was pleased with the gift, even though Paula simply admired the painting in silence.
After she was done admiring the piece of art, Paula carefully kept it. “I love oil painting because it makes me feel calm whenever I do it. I also love David Rudd’s work, so it’s a shame I only have a few. Thank you for this lovely gift.”
“I’m glad you like it. I only got you this gift because I knew you’d appreciate it,” responded Genevieve with a smile.
“That’s very thoughtful of you.” Paula patted Genevieve gently on the hand.
Afterward, everyone chatted over dinner like close friends gathering after work.
When the evening was about to draw to a close, Genevieve leaned in to pour Paula some coffee. “Mrs. Hossler, I heard Warrick is getting ready to make The Twilight.”
“Yes, indeed.” Paula nodded in response.
“I’d like your help in the matter. Warrick can cast anyone as the female lead as long as it’s not Sylvie,” voiced Genevieve.
Upon hearing that, Paula tilted her head to look at Genevieve without saying anything.
Genevieve, too, remained silent until they were ready to leave.
Smiling gently, Paula held Genevieve’s hand. “Ms. Rachford, I’m afraid you’ll have to offer more than just the oil painting for that request. What do you say your company invests ten million in a film that a friend of mine is directing and has Bruce as the male lead?”
The corner of Genevieve’s lips twitched after listening to Paula, but knowing she had no other choice, she gritted her teeth while promising, “Okay. I’ll talk to him at the office tomorrow.”
To that, Genevieve nodded, “Yes. Thank you.”
“AU I did was introduce you to Mrs. Hosslcr. You’re the genius who figured out that she likes oil paintings.” Jan waved his hand embarrassedly with a polite smile. “Do you need a ride, Ms. Rachford?”
On her way to the restroom, Genevieve recalled her conversation with Paula. There‘s no doubt that Mrs. Hossler is the wife of a bigwig: She drove quite a hard bargain. Fortunately, it was still a good deal for me.
