Chapter 97
Scarlett was in a good mood today, but she didn't expect to meet Raymond when she was about to leave. What's more, it was unexpected that he would say such narcissistic words.
It had been more than seven months since she divorced Raymond. After the divorce, her life was very comfortable. When she sometimes thought of Raymond, she was more annoyed at the mistakes she had made 3 years ago.
She never thought that she would remarry him.
"Hilla, help me turn on the tub tap."
She was in a bad mood, so she had to take a scented bath to relax herself.
Scarlett didn't sleep well that night, probably because she met Raymond at the door of the clubhouse.
She dreamed of many things which happened after getting married.
As soon as the alarm went off, she opened her eyes.
She didn't sleep well, so Scarlett was in a bad mood.
It was still dark outside, and the dawn broke very late in the winter of Juanton City.
Scarlett put a coat on, and then went to wash up.
While she was making breakfast, Katherine called her.
Scarlett answered the phone, "Good morning, Secretary Lawrence."
"Good morning, Ms. Reed. I have sent the key points to be discussed in the meeting today to your e-mail."
"Thank you."
There was a meeting at ten o'clock. They had to decide on whether to pursue the second round of funding for a company. Scarlett, as the largest shareholder, had to attend.
After she had breakfast, it was around nine o'clock. Then, Scarlett drove to Mornet Corporation.
The meeting lasted for an hour and a half. After a comprehensive evaluation of all aspects, the follow-up vote was continued with unanimous votes.
As soon as the meeting ended, Scarlett left the company directly.
After she drove away from the company, Scarlett received an unexpected call.
The call was from Alexander. She thought it was a harassing call at first, so she just hung up. If Alexander had not called again, Scarlett wouldn't answer the phone. "Scarlett, it's me, Alexander."
He was one of Raymond's good friends.
She didn't sleep well because of the thing that happened last night, so she was unhappy. Alexander was an unlucky dog because he called her now, "What can I do for you, Mr. Smith?"
Alexander frowned because he knew that Scarlett was unhappy after hearing her words, "I heard that you had won the copyright of Flute Wind."
Scarlett stopped the car because of the red light and raised her eyebrow, "You got the news faster than I thought."
"I heard that you planned to invest in filming yourself."
"Yeah, what's the problem?"
"No. I just want to tell you that it is easy to lose money in the movie market now. Haven't you thought about pulling some investment to reduce the risk?"
Alexander had been interested in the copyright of Flute Wind for a long time, and he had already asked people to contact the owner of copyright. However, the other party insisted that the copyright was worth 3 million. The Sunrigal Corporation was willing to spend 2 million on it. According to the film market, it was obvious that the Sunrigal Corporation was sincere and generous.
Alexander originally wanted to let them consider for a few days, then he could win the adaptation rights at a price of 2.5 million.
However, things changed so quickly.
The Slooworld Corporation won the copyright of People in the Island because of Mornet's intervention several months ago, and this thing had made Alexander annoyed and embarrassed.
Now, Scarlett won the copyright of Flute Wind, which made Alexander more annoyed.
Then, he called Scarlett as soon as he got the news.
In fact, when he heard Scarlett's words, he knew she would refuse his suggestion. However, he stuck to saying the suggestion out just because he didn't want to give it up.
If someone could win the copyright of a good IP, he must earn a lot. It was not easy for him to find a good one, and someone else won it. He should be happy because someone had the same vision as him. However, he felt very disappointed because he lost it.
