The wall clock on the wall ticked at a constant speed.
Lionel's business had never stopped. When he finally had time to spare, he looked up and saw that it was already three o'clock in the afternoon.
He called Assistant Wale in, and handed him the stack of documents in his hand: "You will handle the follow-up work of these documents. Remember to send the minutes of today's meeting to my mailbox."
Assistant Wale responded, took the file, turned around to leave, hesitatingly turned back, looked at Lionel, as if he had something to say.
Lionel looked at his embarrassed face: "What's the matter? Anything else?"
"That..." Assistant Wale was very embarrassed, "I just want to tell you, Mr. Hamlet, Malvin Frank, are still waiting for you in the waiting room."
Lionel raised his eyebrows, and said in surprise: "He hasn't left yet?"
He deliberately left Malvin in the air and asked him to wait, just to let him retreat.
Unexpectedly, this rookie star has nothing else, but full of patience.
No wonder he could climb Owen.
"I haven't left," Assistant Wale was also helpless, his round face showing distressed folds, like a freshly baked pork bun with pleated, pitiful, "He and his agent just waited. I tried to persuade them a few times and it didn’t work, anyway they said they must see you."
Lionel snorted softly, took the cigarette from the side, and lit one: "In this case, give them ten minutes and let them come over."
Assistant Wale breathed a sigh of relief: "Well, well, I'll call them right away."
Lionel stood up from his seat with a somewhat exhausted body, with bright smoke between his fingers with distinct joints.
He walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, squinted, and looked at the bustling city outside.
"Mr, Mr. Hamlet——"
A young male voice sounded behind him.
Lionel turned his head to see, a man who was more refreshing and handsome than in the camera stood at the door of the office.
Lionel looked at him, "Come in."
"Thank you, Mr. Hamlet."
Malvin responded cautiously, with his agent, walked into Lionel's luxurious office, and stood dry.
Lionel did not respond to him immediately. Instead, he stood in front of the window and finished smoking the cigarette in his hand. Then he sighed and walked back to his seat with his long legs wrapped in suit pants and pinched the cigarette butts. Raised his eyes lazily: "Speak, why are you looking for me?"
Malvin didn't get Lionel's answer, so he didn't dare to sit down, so he could only stand honestly.
He slightly raised his head and glanced at Lionel. When he saw Lionel's handsome and mature face and felt the noble aura radiating from him, his heart suddenly tightened: "I'm here to admit my mistake."
Lionel's eyes were calm, and he tapped his fingers on the desk: "What did you admit to me?"
"I shouldn't meet Mr. Well secretly to watch movie behind you" Malvin lowered his head and was watching Lionel's eyes. He only felt that a great pressure was approaching, and his heart was pounding with tension." Knowing that Owen is always your boyfriend, but I didn't pay attention to avoiding suspicion..."
"Owen and I have already split up," Lionel shook his head, "I don't care about the previous things. If you just want to say this, then you can go, Wang He, see them off."
Assistant Wale raised his hand to send them out.
Malvin's agent hurriedly jumped out: "Mr. Hamlet, I have something to say."
Lionel motioned Assistant Wale not to move and let him finish.
"Mr. Hamlet, I know you are powerful enough. We can't fight you." The agent squeezed his fist. "This time Malvin did not do a good job. We are willing to be punished. However, you withdrew his resources. For the most part, shouldn’t it be time to calm down? You’re a businessman, and you’re doing too much things, it’s not good for you, right?"
Lionel stood up and pushed the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose: "Why is it not good?"
The agent bit his lip and couldn't think of it even if he wanted to break his mind. This kind of temporary change of roles is time-consuming, laborious and costly. What good can it do to Lionel!
"Isn't it the greatest benefit to be able to look at the person I hate, to be completely arrogant, and to stand in front of me begging for mercy?" Lionel snorted; his eyes full of shrewd light.
Malvin's heart trembled.
Lionel's words were too domineering, but he couldn't say a word of rebuttal.
The agent standing next to Malvin blushed with anger: "You...how can you be so arrogant!"
"The money I invested, how I love to spend it, and whoever I love to support." Lionel's gaze suddenly fell cold, "What right do you have to point fingers at me?"
The agent insisted: "Okay, then, I don't beg you for anything else. But I'll put my words here. You can't change the protagonist of the movie "Chasing the Wind", it must be Malvin!"
Lionel raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Reason?"
"Malvin’s temperament and appearance are most suitable for this role, and there is no actor at the similar age who has better acting skills than Malvin. Even Mr. Well is extremely in favor of Malvin as the protagonist. Listen well, even Mr. Well has accepted it! You can withdraw other resources at will, but this role must be Malvin! "
"You mean, this role, I will have to use Malvin?" Lionel exudes a dangerous aura.
Without realizing it, the agent raised his head proudly: "Yes, you must!"
He really doesn't believe it, no matter how rich Lionel is, can he reach the sky?
The director, producer, and Mr. Well all agreed to let Malvin play this role, and Mr. Well also took special care and said there was no more suitable person in the circle than Malvin. Can Lionel all come back and overthrow the whole thing with a word from him?
He didn't believe it!
Thinking of this, the agent showed a confident smile on his face, calmly looking at Lionel's frowning brows, as if waiting for him to retreat.
Lionel frowned, not knowing what he was thinking.
For a long time, he suddenly pointed to Assistant Wale: "Wale, a few days ago... What is the name of the male star who always texts me saying that he admires me and wants to have dinner with me?"
Assistant Wale raised his head and thought for a while: "Hudson Scott."
"Yes, him," Lionel said, "Change Malvin and let Hudson Scott come."
Malvin's face turned white for a moment: "Hudson Scott?"
The agent didn't wait for the result he had expected, his eyes suddenly widened: "Mr. Hamlet, are you crazy! Hudson Scott is a male vase who has no acting skills. He plays the protagonist?! No way!"
"I say okay so he is okay, you don't have to worry about anything else," Lionel sat back, crossing his legs at will, "Assistant Wale, help me get Hudson Scott out tonight, and I want to talk to him."
Assistant Wale was taken aback, and then quickly said: "Okay, I've written it down."
"You two," Lionel's eyes swept over Malvin and his agent, "You don't need to waste time with me anymore. If you have this spare time, you might as well go find Owen and show your misery. I'll take a look. You and Owen, do you have this ability to make me change my mouth!"
