"Do you think he can succeed?"
Stephen glanced at Raymond, who indifferently looked across at Alexander. "Fifty-fifty."
Stephen smiled. "You're quite optimistic about him."
Raymond withdrew his gaze. "Undeniably, he's not ugly."
"That makes sense."
However, Alexander was so regretful. Why was Scarlett here?
Scarlett had played a round and planned to rest. She tilted her head, seeing Alexander standing beside her.
"Hi, Scarlett."
Scarlett unscrewed the cap of the water bottle and took a sip before looking at him. "Mr. Smith, what a coincidence."
She sounded calm, obviously not wanting to bump into him.
Alexander looked back. Stephen and the others were far away from him so that he couldn't see their expressions, but he could guess.
No, he couldn't admit defeat!
"Did you come alone?"
Scarlett smiled faintly at him. "No. There is another person with me. Didn't you see?"
It's stupid to ask her while he knew the answer.
Scarlett had no patience with him.
Alexander smiled awkwardly. "Would you like to join u s?"
"No."
"Raymond is also here. Don't you want to greet him?"
Scarlett looked at Alexander and slightly raised an eyebrow. "Wouldn't it be better not to do that?"
"Well, we just saw you play golf very well. Can you teach Cindy?"
Scarlett glanced at the ball boy who came back with the ball, saying to him, "Thank you. Let's take a break."
After that, she looked at Alexander. "Thanks, but I don't know how to teach people. There are coaches here. I think Mr. James should know better than me."
Sunrigal just bought the rights to "Lost Youth" last Thursday. Alexander had thought no one knew about i t except for him and the copyright department manager.
It was not a small matter.
"We happened to have contacted the author, but she refused us no matter how much we offered."
Few people could refuse a good thing like money. The only possible reason was that the rights were already sold.
Alexander looked at Scarlett and had to admire her intelligence.
He gritted his teeth. "It is impossible, but if you help m e, I can sell you half of the rights."
Scarlett knew that she asked for too much. Alexander wouldn't be silly enough to agree.
She only wanted a share of the pie. It was generous of Alexander to sell her half of the rights. Sunrigal didn't lack money. It was a good deal for her.
"Deal?"
"Deal!"
Alexander did a double-take and reached out to shake hands with her.
