**The Billionaire’s Last Obsession series 335**
**Chapter 335 Memo Entertainment**
Lillian stood at the edge of the room, her eyes narrowing as the tension in the air thickened. The unfolding drama was all too familiar, yet it never failed to spark a knot of anxiety in her stomach. She had known the head of Memo Entertainment for quite some time; their relationship had always been cordial, laced with the kind of familiarity that comes from shared experiences in the cutthroat world of entertainment. But today, the atmosphere felt charged, electric, as if a storm were brewing just beneath the surface.
Wayne’s demeanor had shifted dramatically, his usual calm façade replaced by a chilling coolness that sent shivers down her spine. His voice sliced through the air like a finely honed blade. “Oh, really? So Memo Entertainment is the name on everyone’s lips these days? My sincerest apologies, then; it appears that Skyreach Group is simply unworthy of your esteemed company. Please, spare me the niceties and make your exit.”
The abruptness of his words sent shockwaves through the room, leaving everyone momentarily speechless. It was a rare sight to see Wayne, typically so composed, unleash such unfiltered disdain.
Linda, ever the professional, stepped forward, her posture straight and her tone respectful. “Mr. Wayne, I’d like to introduce you to Memo Entertainment’s director, Ms. Rachel. She has come specifically to meet with you.”
“Ms. Rachel?” Wayne’s gaze, now as frigid as the winter wind, shifted toward the woman standing just a few feet away. “I’m afraid I don’t recall that name.”
Before Rachel could gather her thoughts to respond, a woman with an infectious smile emerged from the lounge area, her presence lighting up the dimly lit room.
“Mr. Wayne,” she began, her voice smooth and inviting, “it’s truly a privilege to finally make your acquaintance. I’m Lisa, representing Memo Entertainment. I’ve come to discuss the potential collaboration on our upcoming film project.” With a graceful flourish, she extended her delicate hand toward him, her poise unwavering.
Wayne’s eyes lingered on her hand for a heartbeat longer than necessary before his lips twisted into a smile that lacked warmth. “I must have been mistaken, then. Skyreach Group has no space for Memo Entertainment. Is there a problem with my accent, or are you simply not listening?”
Lisa’s smile remained intact, her composure unshaken by the biting exchange. With a fluid motion, she withdrew her hand, maintaining her elegance. “I apologize for any misunderstanding. My agent may have spoken out of turn earlier; her careless words were unrepresentative of our intentions. On her behalf, I sincerely apologize. I truly hope you won’t take this to heart. After all, a partnership between Memo and Skyreach could be beneficial for both parties, wouldn’t you agree?”
As Lillian observed Lisa, she couldn’t help but admire the woman’s adeptness. She was like a seasoned performer, bending and adapting to the pressures of the moment with an impressive grace. Even when faced with Wayne’s deliberate hostility, Lisa remained composed, her self-control a rare gem in this brutal industry.
Rachel, who had been standing quietly beside Lillian, took a step forward, her expression softening with a conciliatory smile. “I too am sorry, Mr. Wayne. I acted hastily and may have come across as disrespectful. I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me.”
In this ruthless industry, the game was one that everyone had to play, and Rachel was no exception. While she could command respect at the front desk, in the presence of someone like Wayne, her usual bravado was stripped away, leaving her vulnerable.
