Chapter 55

Heidi was very efficient in doing things and quickly made an appointment with Sandy’s company.

I told her to set the time for lunch. Discussions like this, especially the kind that required mental strength, were best done over food.

Seeing that it was almost noon, I took my bag and went to the restaurant that Heidi had booked in advance. Unexpectedly, they had arrived earlier. Sandy’s manager was also there

It seemed that the Grant Corporation was indeed a big business client, and they valued it very much.

The boss of Newlight Media, George Manson, was a very young boss with a dignified look. Many people said that he had entered the wrong line of work and should have become a scholar instead. They used to work together in the entertainment industry and knew each other.
