Chapter 53
A few days later, Hanzel went to the company.
He leaned against the door of Richard’s office, smiling. “I’ve met many female celebrities recently. None of them were a good fit or wanted to do the ad. Rick, I really don’t have anyone else in mind.”
Richard responded coldly, “It’s not like we must shoot this ad.”
His statement made Hanzel frown. “You can’t do that, Rick. You promised. Don’t go back on your word.”
“I’ll still pay you, but you don’t need to do the ad.”
Meanwhile, Pearl knocked on the door, wanting to clarify some terms. She overheard their conversation, and it left her with mixed feelings.
Spotting her, Hanzel said, “Pearl!” He immediately went to her and grinned. “I really can’t find anyone for the ad. Remember you said you’d do it if I couldn’t find anyone?”
Pearl’s l*ps twitched as she glanced at Richard, who seemed upset. She found herself lost for words.
“Don’t worry about Rick. He already agreed.”
However, Richard coldly refuted Hanzel. “I never said that.”
Pearl replied, “Why don’t we give it a try?”
She understood that Waldorf Enterprises needed the endorsement of a celebrity to establish a presence in the jewelry industry and gain an initial advantage in promoting their jewelry products.
So, she wasn’t willing to abandon the idea too quickly. She gave Richard a tentative look and continued when he stayed composed, “Ultimately, it’s for the good of Waldorf Enterprises. I believe this plan will work.”
After a long silence, Richard murmured, “Fine.”
Finally, with Richard’s approval, Hanzel and Pearl could work together on the ad.
Hanzel postponed filming the upcoming drama to focus on the ad. But the set was at a large outdoor field instead of Waldorf Enterprises.
During the shoot, Hanzel and Pearl acted intimately with each other, and they didn’t notice Richard’s livid face nearby.
After the first scene, Pearl went for a water break and heard Richard’s cold mockery. “You’re pretty good.”
Shocked, Pearl turned around and saw Richard, who was fuming with unspeakable emotions.
