“According to our agreement, in the event of a breach by either party, the defaulting party must pay double. That is a total of one million, and here is the money, Mr. Tanner. Please verify.”
Gina took out that amount of money to assert her firm stance.
There were hardly any decent film studios in the entire Yorksland, not to mention those newly built ones like Dynasty Studios. Countless production teams were waiting on the list to book their set.
Therefore, Gina was confident that Weston would not dare to accept the money.
If he took that money, his production team would be blacklisted by Dynasty Studios, and he would never be allowed to film there again.
Above all else, Weston broke the rule beforehand and even accepted the money later.
If he did it, it would worsen his relationship with not only the Dynasty Studios but also other film studios and peers in the industry.
Therefore, that one million was, in fact, hush money.
If Weston dared to accept it, his career as a rising director would come to an abrupt end.
“What's the matter, Mr. Tanner? I've already brought out the penalty money for the breach of contract. Don't you want it?”
Weston stood still. Meanwhile, Donald walked out from behind.
“Of course, we want this free money. It's just that you deliberately poured it on the ground. If we stoop down to pick them up, it will make us lose our faces.”
Donald looked at Gina and said, “Here's the deal. Why don't you pick up the money, bundle them up nicely, and hand it over to us again? Then we can discuss what happens next.”
After hearing Donald's words, Gina was stunned for a moment.
Really? Is he taking this money?
Gina looked at Donald as if he were a fool and said, “Who do you think you are? Do you think you have the right to speak here?”
“Mr. Tanner, does he have a say?” Gina asked.
Weston looked at Gina calmly and said, “His decision is my decision.”
