Chapter 56
After the official update of the Lux International website, the business circle in the Y City was also in an uproar.
Meanwhile, Katherine was always in a good mood these days because she had the shares of Florence in her hands.
She also always slept well.
When the news about the change of the president of Lux International was officially released, she was on Alice's set to visit her.
Ever since everybody knew that Katherine was the boss of Silverlight Entertainment, even the director was polite to her every time she arrived on the set.
Silverlight Entertainment had invested in two movies this year, and the first thing Katherine did was expend tens of millions on the two.
She was too generous.
Who wouldn't want to have Silverlight Entertainment's investment in the film industry? Alice walked to Katherine with a heavy headdress when the set was on hold for a quick break.
"I heard the news.I am so jealous.Do you know how much your assets are right now?"
Katherine raised her left eyebrow and said, "I don't know.It's too much.If I let Celine handle it, it will be a waste of time.So, we didn't calculate it.’
These words sounded so arrogant in Alice's ears.
She couldn't help but grit her teeth.
"How did you change Florence's mind?" she curiously asked.
"To tell you the truth, I don't know.I'm just so happy that Florence chose me ‘’ Katherine honestly answered.
Alice scoffed.She couldn't believe that it would be that simple.So, she said, "Be honest, Katherine.We are best friends.We don't keep secrets from each other.Did you seduce Florence's son?"
Katherine glared at her.She was losing patience.
"Her son is only eighteen years old! For heaven's sake, Alice!"
"He's just seven or eight years younger.It's not that impossible, Katherine” Alice replied.
Katherine couldn't believe what her friend thought of her.
She was so angry that she sarcastically laughed and handed Alice the things in her hands.
"Luke asked me to bring it to you.I'm leaving ‘’ she coldly said.
Of course, she wouldn't go to the set if she had nothing to do there.
It wasn't just because of boredom.
It was just that yesterday, Future Technology was listed in the X city stock market.
Even though Katherine didn't want to show up, as one of the major shareholders of Luke's shares, she had to go to the gathering in the city with him.
However, Luke still had to socialize in X city for a day or two.
So, Katherine came back first and brought the bag Alice had asked her boyfriend to buy for her.
Florence would go overseas next week, and she probably would not come back.
Before leaving, she wanted to have a meal with Katherine.
Katherine was not fond of social interactions.
If it were someone else, she would not accept their invitation, but Florence was different.
She had high respect for the beautiful old lady.
After Katherine stormed out from Alice's set, she quickly drove to the restaurant to meet with Florence.
However, when she arrived, there was someone else occupying one of their table seats.
Katherine thought that maybe their meeting table number was different.
She might've remembered it wrong, so she didn't move for a while.
She asked the boy who was occupying one of their seats to be sure if she was mistaken.
"Hello, is this table 177"
The boy, who was busy playing with his phone, looked at her with a hint of impatience in his eyes.
When he saw Katherine's face, surprise flickered in his eyes.
"Are you Ms.Summer?" he quickly asked.
‘‘This is interesting” Katherine thought.
So, she smiled and sat down.
"Yes, I am.Are you Mrs.Sawyer's son?"
"Yes, hello, my name is Vincent; he politely answered.Vincent put down his phone, and his attitude completely changed.Right on timing, Florence came out of the bathroom and apologetically said, "Miss Wilson, I'm sorry.I just went to the bathroom."
Katherine smiled at the woman and muttered, "It doesn't matter.I just arrived as well."
Florence sat down beside her son.
"Miss Wilson, I'm sorry.This is my son, Vincent.I brought him with me today because I want to ask you a favor."
"Go on.How can I be of help, Mrs.Sawyer?" Katherine asked, still smiling.
Florence was so straightforward.
She directly said, "Miss Wilson, I know that you are aware that I am going overseas and probably might not come back.Vincent's custody was in his dad's before.Because of that, I cannot go abroad although there are lots of opportunities.I thought that when he was old enough, he was willing to go abroad with me, but he told me that he wanted to be an actor.I trust the Silverlight Entertainment management because it was under your name.So, this time I brought Vincent to see if you are willing to accept him as a talent?"
Florence poured Katherine a drink while she spoke.
"You don't have to give him special attention.He must climb the way up with his abilities.I will just feel better and assured if I will leave Vincent under your company's care.I have high regard and trust in your capabilities.I believe that I will never be worried about your company's management”
When Florence finished speaking, her son beside her was already sitting upright.RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
He was looking at Katherine with anticipation and apprehension in his eyes.
This was not a simple contract signing for Vincent.
Florence wanted him under her care so that if anything happened to him, Katherine would take responsibility for it.
Katherine was a very decisive person.
In a matter of seconds, she refused them because she didn't want trouble.
"Mrs.Sawyer, I understand what you mean.Thank you for having such trust in me.However, you know that I don't like trouble.This deal might be not good,’ she honestly declined.” Florence seemed to have expected this and had an answer prepared.
"You are thinking too much, Miss Wilson.I'll just let Vincent sign to your company.I know how the entertainment industry works.He is already an adult.Since he has chosen it himself, then he will do things on his own”
Florence then added, "Of course, I know you're not being unreasonable, Miss Wilson, so I brought the agreement.In the future, no matter what happens to Vincent, it has nothing to do with you.As a corresponding compensation, I will pay all the endorsement fees for Vincent in three years to your company.’’ Florence came prepared.
Katherine would surely profit with this deal, and three years were enough to have that.
She only needed to accept Vincent in her company, and she would not even need to spend resources on him for his endorsement.
This was very beneficial to her.
"Okay, because Mrs.Sawyer is persistent and straightforward, I will not refuse.Welcome to Silverlight Entertainment, Vincent” Katherine said with a smile.
She took the contract and signed it before she stared at Vincent.
"I will ask my agent to contact you later, Mr.Sawyer ‘’ she uttered.
"You can call me Vincent, Ms.Summer,'' he quickly replied.
Vincent looked upset.
It seemed like he disliked his surname.
Katherine raised her eyebrows and retorted, "Then Vincent should call me Katherine now.Only a few people in the Y City know that I am Summer”
"Okay, no problem, Katherine” Vincent said as he nodded.
Katherine didn't expect Florence's son to sign a contract with her own entertainment company after a meal.
Alice's word almost came true.
It was now almost close to the truth.
