Chapter 357 Mysterious Mr. Hampson
The more Miriam thought about it, the more confused she became.
Soon they arrived at the first floor. They got into the car one after the other.
“Ms. Cisneros, where are you taking me?”
“Mr. Malpas, don’t worry. Since we have made an appointment, we are going to the appointed place. Mr. Malpas, do you have
anything else and perhaps have some more money?”
Amelie asked tentatively.
“Let’s talk about it then.”
Miriam was smart enough to leave the room.
Amelie could see it and didn’t break it down, but it was clear.
The car drove fast. Twenty minutes had passed, and they finally reached their destination.
Miriam glanced at the teahouse next to her and was filled with curiosity.
“Ms. Cisneros, who exactly is the person you are talking about? How come we have an appointment in the teahouse.”
“Mr. Malpas, don’t worry. He must be a capable person, otherwise, he wouldn’t be so intent on destroying the Aylward Group,
would he?”
“Ms. Cisneros, yes.”
Miriam hastily agreed and then got out of the car.
They walked into the teahouse and were taken by the waiter to a private room on the second floor.
As soon as they walked into the private room, Miriam saw the face of an old man.
She had never seen him before. But from the way he was dressed, it looked like his status should not be simple.
What’s more, the consumption level of the teahouse here was not low, and those who could come here should be some big
shots.
Thinking about this, Miriam was very happy.
If she could sell it for a good price, then wouldn’t she have nothing to worry about for the rest of her life?
When she thought of this, the corners of her mouth couldn’t help but rise slightly.
“Mr. Malpas, this is the buyer I told you about, the chairman of Apex Entertainment. When Prosperity Global Entertainment was
in its prime, it was second only to Apex Entertainment. It’s a pity that Apex Entertainment seems to be mediocre until now
because of some special reasons.
Nevertheless, over the years, Mr. Hampson should have accumulated a lot of money, right?”
Amelie said jokingly.
“Ms. Cisneros, you should not make fun of me. For so many years, Apex Entertainment has been steady and stable, naturally
not as powerful as Prosperity Global Entertainment when it was. But Apex Entertainment is not bad. But now I am depressed
that the Aylward Group directly monopolized the entertainment industry. It’s very difficult to make business in the film industry
nowadays. The Aylward Group doesn’t give us a chance to live, so we have no choice but to do so.”
Miriam listened to Mr. Hampson’s words and her doubts were dispelled.
“Hello, Mr. Hampson, I’m Miriam, I used to work for Prosperity Global Entertainment. I do know you. We haven’t met, but I’ve
heard of your name. You are a great person too.”
Miriam hurriedly introduced herself.
“Is that so? Then you are also in our camp. What kind of project document is it? Let me take a look.”
Mr. Hampson said directly, wanting to know the contents of the document.
But Miriam was a little hesitant.
She knew that Apex Entertainment had been struck by Prosperity Global Entertainment and had no way to regain its status, and
now there was no way back because of the monopoly of the Aylward Group.
What Mr. Hampson needed most now was the documents in her hands. Wouldn’t it be too little to
ask for 200,000 dollars at this time?
Thinking of this, Miriam made up her mind.
“Mr. Hampson, here’s the thing. I took a big risk when I took this document, so if you want it, this is the price.”
Miriam gestured.
“If you give me a million dollars, I will cooperate to the end, not only to give you the document but also to help you refine it. I will
make sure that the message will be of maximum use.”
“So you’re going to raise the price?”
Mr. Hampson’s tone suddenly turned bad, startling Miriam at the side.
Amelie listened and looked at Miriam in a hurry.
“Is it not appropriate for you to raise the price at this time? Didn’t we agree on 200,000 dollars?”
Miriam didn’t pay any attention.
“Mr. Hampson, I know you must be very angry, but there is no way. I am in a very difficult situation and I need a million dollars. If
not, I can hide this file for the rest of my life. But Apex Entertainment should never have a chance to stand out again.”
Miriam began to threaten.
Amelie listened to her expressionless face. She had already guessed that this would be the result.
She knew what kind of person Miriam was, and she knew her very well.
She had known Miriam’s character three years ago.
“A temporary price increases? That’s interesting. You are a veteran of Prosperity Global Entertainment, and you are good at
calculating. But you’re wrong this time. I could have done without this document, after all, Leila has already been sent to prison.
This kind of news is simply the best news for me, at least it will keep Willard from getting his composure for some time. So this
lady, you have the wrong plan.”
“Mr. Hampson, I know what you mean. But nothing is known yet, is it? You don’t have to make a decision so early now?”
“Oh? Are you so confident?”
Mr. Hampson looked at the woman in front of him with interest.
“Leila is not sure that she will go to jail yet. The trial hasn’t even started yet, so anything is possible.”
Miriam said firmly.
“An interesting woman. Very well, you know, a million dollars is just a small amount for me. But I don’t like people who betray
their word like you. Out of the goodness of my heart, I can give you a million dollars since you need it so much, but I also have a
request.”
Miriam was immediately excited at the chance to get a million dollars, and couldn’t hold herself back.
She looked at Mr. Hampson.
“Mr. Hampson, please go ahead.”
It’s very simple, and that is to come to work in my company.”
“Work? You’re not kidding, are you?”
“Of course not. You have given me the documents, but how should I use them? Do you not care? Or are you afraid of
something?”
“I’m not afraid.”
Miriam’s expression became unnatural. She didn’t want anyone to know she was afraid of Lamont.
Mr. Hampson, however, laughed.
“If you are not afraid, then why are you afraid to say yes? This should not be difficult for you, after all, you were once an assistant
of Prosperity Global Entertainment. You have experienced a lot.”
“Mr. Hampson, it’s really hard. After all, I haven’t worked in years, and it would be a problem for you...”
Miriam tried to find a way to refuse but to no avail.
“I’m not afraid of trouble. You just have to tell me yes or no. If no, I can choose not to take the risk, but I’m afraid that your
family...”
Miriam heard the word family and immediately lifted her head, looking at him in shock
