Rural Belle & Three Heirs

"This director has no professional ethics and no manners. How did he manage to become a renowned director in the industry?" Chloe said angrily, her tone full of incredulous rage.

"I've met a few people in the entertainment industry, and they were all very well- mannered and humble, nothing like him," Chloe continued, unwilling to let it go. Comparing him to those she had met before, their politeness and humility made her even more unable to comprehend this director's behavior.

Zara looked at Chloe's expression and quickly comforted her, "Chloe, don't be mad. Although this kind of person is pretentious, he is indeed influential and respected in the industry. Our small company really needs this chance to get off the ground. Let's bear with it for now."

Chloe took a deep breath upon hearing this, trying to calm her emotions. She knew Zara was right; there was no need to let momentary anger affect the company's future plans.

Philip stood by Chloe's side. Although he strongly disliked Travis, as Chloe's employee, he refrained from expressing any opinions. Floyd, on the other hand, was more interested in the actors recording the show and was completely absorbed in watching them.

Seeing Chloe calm down, Zara suggested, "Chloe, should we go talk to Mr. Larson again?"

"Talk about what? We don't have millions. If we go back, won't he just humiliate us again?" Chloe's words made sense.

Zara sighed and didn't say anything more. She also felt that Travis was being unreasonable. Who would ask for millions before even starting negotiations? That's not how business was done.

"Let's go, this is pointless," Chloe said, signaling Zara and Philip to leave. But Floyd was still engrossed in watching the show.

"Floyd, we're leaving," Chloe called out.

Hearing Chloe, Floyd finally responded and followed them out.

Back at the office of Summit Media Solutions, Zara kept sighing. Summit Media Solutions had been open for a week, yet they hadn't secured a single piece of business. This situation made Zara extremely anxious and weighed heavily on her mind.

If no business comes in soon, the employees and the newly signed actors in the company probably won't get paid, and everyone might end up struggling to make ends meet. This would be a huge blow to a company that was just starting.

'The most pressing issue now is to get business going; we can't continue like this,' Zara thought to herself.

"Chloe, what should we do?" Zara asked helplessly.

Chloe heard Zara's words, pondered for a moment, and then replied, "What else can we do? We have to develop steadily. We can't just focus on one director. Although Travis has a significant influence, I don't believe that without him, we have no way of doing business."

Zara, do you remember that person named Jessica I introduced you to?"

Chloe mentioned Jessica, recalling a small gathering at the Martin Family mansion where she had introduced Jessica to Zara before things went south due to Lucy's interference.

Zara nodded, "Yeah, I remember. I even added her on Facebook."

"Contact her and tell her our company wants to expand. Ask her to introduce us to some reliable directors. I refuse to believe we can't find anyone better than that money-grubbing director," Chloe instructed.

Hearing Jessica's name, Zara got excited. She slapped her forehead and said, "What was I thinking? How could I have forgotten about such an important contact like Jessica? She's a veteran actress in the industry, and even Michael treats her with the utmost respect. Asking her to introduce us to a reliable director should be no problem at all!"

Zara took out her phone to contact Jessica, but before she could find her on Facebook, her uncle Brian called.

"Zara, Travis just called me. He said he had a great conversation with you and is very satisfied with your company. He wants to have dinner with you tonight. Discuss with Chloe and decide on a suitable place. You're the first small company he's shown such interest in."

Zara was stunned.

"This is a rare opportunity. I'll send you Travis's number. Contact him yourselves," Brian said before hanging up.

Zara looked at her phone in disbelief and then at Chloe. "Chloe, what's going on? This morning he kicked us out, and now he says he had a great conversation with us?"

"I don't get it either. I was pretty blunt with him," Chloe said, shrugging.

Philip chimed in, "Maybe Travis has a masochistic streak. Your bluntness might have made him feel good, so now he wants to work with us."noveldrama

Philip's analysis was baffling, but it was the only explanation they could think of.

Floyd, who had been silent, finally spoke up, "Hey, it's already a big deal that he wants to work with us. You guys should prepare and get the contract signed. I think the show they produced is really fun. I can't wait to join them."

Chloe rolled her eyes at Floyd. A doctor who didn't focus on his surgeries but wanted to dabble in acting? It seemed unprofessional.

Regardless, Travis's dinner invitation was an opportunity. Chloe and Zara decided to seize it.

Zara quickly arranged a restaurant, while Chloe drafted a cooperation plan in her office, determined to discuss the collaboration thoroughly with Travis that evening.

As she was writing, Grant sent her a message on Facebook.

Grant: [Dinner tonight after work?]

Chloe immediately declined: [I can't, I have a client meeting tonight.]

Grant: [Tell me the location. I'll pick you up afterward.]

His concern for Chloe was growing; he even wanted to be with her all the time.

Chloe agreed without hesitation: [Okay, I'll send you the address once it's set.]

Feeling sweet inside, Chloe decided to send Grant a kiss emoji as a token of her appreciation.
