Capítulo 1968: Chapter 1980: The Subject of the Rumor Is Skye Brown
“Hello, I’m looking for Mr. Wellington.”
“Do you have an appointment? Mr. Wellington is currently busy, and without an appointment, not just anyone can meet him.”
In the reception hall on the first floor of the Wellington building, Skye Brown took off her sunglasses, revealing a pair of exquisite, alluring almond-shaped eyes.
The front desk receptionist, responsible for welcoming guests, was slightly stunned upon seeing Skye Brown’s appearance, despite being accustomed to various supermodels and actresses coming to find Mr. Wellington.
However, this woman in front of her had a kind of indescribable charm that surpassed any other she had ever seen before.
Her previous tone wasn’t particularly friendly, but now, faced with Skye’s soft, bright almond-shaped eyes, she felt somewhat guilty.
She cleared her throat gently and explained, “Mr. Wellington is still in a meeting. If you don’t have an appointment, it’s best you call him personally and ask him to send someone down to escort you up. If you ask us, we can only follow protocol and go by appointment order.”
Skye recognized the goodwill in her suggestion, but her actual intention was to give Dylan Wellington an unexpected ‘surprise.’
Calling wasn’t convenient.
“It’s okay; going through the proper appointment process is fine. I’m the vice president of the Gray family, and this is my business card. I have a cooperation project to discuss with Mr. Wellington. If you could notify him for me, I’d appreciate it.”
With elegant poise, Skye took a business card from her bag and handed it over.
The receptionist was completely at a loss now.
Her right hand trembled slightly as she took the business card and looked at it—indeed, she was the vice president of the Gray family.
This was entirely different from what they originally thought—a celebrity from the industry trying to climb the social ladder. Get full chapters from N0v3l.Fiɾe.net
Knowing that Wellington was recently in collaboration with the Gray family, the receptionist did not dare to be careless. She invited Skye to sit and wait a moment before quickly picking up the phone to notify upstairs.
At the top floor of Wellington Entertainment, Dylan Wellington was in a meeting.
Several projects were progressing smoothly, and the company’s profits were considerable. Yet, Mr. Wellington, sitting at the head, had a forbidding demeanor.
Normally accustomed to Mr. Wellington’s lazy and carefree expressions, the sudden change to such a cold face left many senior executives unaccustomed.
Only at this time do they remember that their CEO, despite numerous tabloid stories and his seemingly carefree nature, is truly ruthless when it comes to business.
Several senior executives adjusted their posture, fearing that something was not done well enough and that Mr. Wellington might be displeased.
Unbeknownst to them, Dylan Wellington’s impatience and gloom were all due to another woman.
A woman who, since ‘jumping out of the car’ last night, had not proactively contacted him.
This was entirely unexpected for him.
He was waiting for her to call and apologize—because in Mr. Wellington’s view, the way Skye Brown looked at him clearly held hidden feelings.
Skye’s panicked escape from the car and her unusual anxiety over his dates indicated one thing—she cared about him more than she realized.
After having endured setbacks with Skye, Mr. Wellington naturally wouldn’t miss this opportunity to regain the upper hand.
Unfortunately, since last night until now, a full day had passed, and Skye hadn’t even called.
Dylan Wellington became increasingly impatient, his wicked, deep almond-shaped eyes glinting coldly. As he glanced over the senior executives, a palpable pressure ensued.
At this moment, Tom Nelson quietly entered: “Mr. Wellington, there’s been a problem with ‘The Harem,’ the collaboration with the Gray family. The male lead, Norman York, has been rumored to have an affair with someone on the staff. If it were any other rumor, we could spin it, but Norman is a fan-favorite lead, and such a situation would definitely affect the ratings. Norman’s fans are all boycotting now, the situation is getting out of control, and at this rate, it might impact our investment. Mr. Wellington, what do you think we should do now…”
Dylan Wellington raised an eyebrow, a hint of wickedness showing.
Already displeased, without a second thought, he frowned and said, “Do you really need to specially come in and ask me about this kind of thing? As per usual protocol, any woman who spreads rumors with the male lead with ulterior motives should be directly fired.”
Tom Nelson nodded in agreement, but thinking of Mr. Wellington’s previous pursuit of the rumored female lead, he hesitated briefly and couldn’t resist asking.
“Uh… Mr. Wellington… the staff rumored with Norman York is our film’s director, Miss Brown. The movie has been shooting for over two months, and we’re more than halfway done… Would it be not quite right to change directors at this point?”
