The Beauty and the Brain by Natalie Jones novel Chapter 149

Chapter 149 

Cullen nodded, “Ms. Aubree Berry has lived in Bordeaux for many years.” 

Marie followed Dennis onto the plane without speaking. If she remembered correctly, Carly had been sent to Bordeaux by Asher. Edward had been controlling her money according to the standard living expenses of an ordinary university student. Marie wondered how Carly had been doing that 

year. 

When the plane landed in Bordeaux, it was already 10PM. The hotel had arranged a car to pick them up. This time, Cullen couldn’t come because he 

was busy with work in America. 

After returning to the hotel and cleaning up, Marie couldn’t fall asleep as she tossed and turned. She was a bit excited, thinking that if they could secure the copyrights to make a movie, Sasha’s fame wouldn’t be limited to a small film. like The Earthquake. They could even send the movie abroad for award 

nominations. 

The next day, Marie woke up early, waiting for Dennis to take her to meet 

Aubree. 

Dennis drove her to a mansion and said, “This is the place.” 

Marie laughed, “I’ll go by myself, you just wait here for me.” 

Dennis said helplessly, “Marie, this matter isn’t that easy.” 

Marie laughed brightly, “I know, if it were easy, someone would have beaten me to the draw already. It’s the challenge that makes it interesting!” 

Dennis reached out and touched her hair, saying, “Go ahead, good luck.” 

Marie got out of the car and rang the doorbell. Before long, a housekeeper came out and opened the door. Speaking in French, she asked, “Who are you looking for?” 

“I’m looking for Ms. Aubree Berry, is she at home?” Marie asked. 

The housekeeper nodded, went in and said something, then came out and 

opened the door, inviting her in. 

Marie looked back at Dennis, flashed him a peace sign, and then followed the 

housekeeper into the mansion. 

The mansion was very spacious, and its interior design featured a typical European-style. Marie followed the housekeeper inside, and after several 

twists and turns, they arrived at the outdoor garden. 

It was summer, and beautiful roses were blooming in the garden. A woman 

with long hair and a blue dress was standing in the garden, watering the 

plants. The sunlight cast a shadow on her back, making her look serene and 

gentle. 

The housekeeper walked over and said something. The woman turned around, 

looked at Marie, suddenly paused, and the watering can in her hand dropped to 

the ground with a clang. 

Marie walked over, picked up the watering can, and handed it to the housekeeper. She then turned and asked, “Are you alright?” 

The woman shook her head, realizing her lapse in composure, adjusted her 

expression, and smiled as she said, “It’s fine. May I ask what this young lady 

needs from me?” 

Aubree should be in her forties this year, but she took great care of herself. 

Her skin was smooth and fair, her long hair cascaded like a waterfall, and she exuded elegance. If it weren’t for the faint fine lines around her eyes, Marie 

would have believed her to be in her twenties. 

“Hello Ms. Berry, my name is Marie Spence, and I came here to discuss Double Sided with you.” Marie looked at Aubree nervously, afraid that she would be 

rejected immediately. 

Get Borut 

Aubree chuckled and looked at Marie, “Oh? Ms. Spence, do you work in film and television?” 

Marie nodded, “Yes, I read Old Mr. Berry’s book and thought that turning it into a movie would definitely be a huge success, so I specifically came to Bordeaux to visit you.” 

Aubree greeted Marie with a smile and invited her to sit down, saying, “Ms. Spence, there’s no need to be nervous, let’s just have a casual chat.” 

Marie followed Aubree and sat down on the wicker chairs in the garden. The housekeeper brought refreshments and offered her a morning snack. Marie took a sip of coffee, and the rich aroma of roses filled her nostrils, fragrant. 

and natural. 

“Ms. Spence, why would you think that if I gave you the copyrights, you could make this movie well?” Aubree asked. 

Marie put down her coffee mug and said, “It’s because I have the best 

production team resources, can hire the best director, and can find the most 

suitable actors.” 

Aubree laughed and seemed very happy, “Ms. Spence, you seem very confident. In that case, let’s talk again when you find the suitable actors.” 

Marie was about to say that she already had someone in mind when Aubree 

stood up and said, “I’m tired, Ms. Spence, you go ahead.” 

Before Marie could respond, a housekeeper had already rushed over to help Aubree back to rest. Marie sat awkwardly alone in the garden and could only get up and leave. On her way out, she grabbed two pieces of finger food. 

Back in the car, Dennis asked, “How did it go?” 

Marie shook her head, then nodded, furrowing her brow in confusion, and said, “I don’t know, it seems like Ms. Aubree Berry isn’t as opposed to transferring copyrights as the rumors suggest, and our conversation was quite 

natural and gentle, but I also feel like she’s leading me on.” 

Marie frowned, thinking about Aubree’s appearance just now, and said, “Let’s try again tomorrow.”
