Gerald was agonizing in his office, knowing that telling Josephine it was Xavier’s decision to replace her as director would be a huge blow.
But he had to tell her; there was no avoiding it.
After hesitating for a moment, he picked up his phone and called Josephine.
After listening, Josephine replied in an emotionless voice, “Really? It was Xavier’s idea? Is he treating me like an enemy, trying to destroy my dream of being a director?”
Gerald thought to himself, she’s really devastated. He said, “Josie, you’re Xavier’s savior, not his enemy. It’s his fault.”
“How about this, you make a new movie. I’ll invest in it, okay?”
Josephine let out a dry laugh. “You’ll invest?
You’re a lawyer. Do you have that kind of money to invest in a movie?”
“I don’t, but my family does. I’ll talk to my brother later and suggest his company get into the film industry too.”
Josephine suddenly wondered if Gerald was an idiot or if he had a crush on her, to actually offer to fund her movie.
“Can your brother’s company also come up with a billion to fund my movie?”
Gerald was speechless for a moment, then said, “Well, maybe not that much, but one or two hundred million should be possible.”
Josephine said flatly, “I’m making a blockbuster. One or two hundred million probably isn’t enough.”
“If that’s not enough, I can come up with a few tens of millions myself.”
Josephine was annoyed and sighed, “Alright, Gerald, I won’t bother you anymore. I’m hanging up.”
“Josie, you…”

Gerald frowned, but then he remembered he would see her at the court hearing this afternoon, so he could have a proper talk with her then.
After hearing what Gerald said from Josephine, Courtney’s face turned grim. “Xavier’s move is ruthless. He won’t let the three hundred million go to waste, and he gets to kick you off the film
Josephine’s face was filled with rage. “Mom, I’m going to The Croft Tower to confront Xavier. I saved him, why is he treating me like this?”
Courtney patted her shoulder. “You have a court hearing this afternoon. Let’s deal with this
tomorrow.”
“You need to be like your mother. No matter what setbacks you face, you have to stay calm. Only when you’re calm can you think of a solution and get through the hardship.”
In the Executive Office of the, Amy walked up to Ryan’s desk and asked, “Is Mr. Beltran alone?”
Ryan nodded. “Yes, Mr. Beltran is in there by himself.”
Amy turned and knocked on the door.
Ryan glanced over but said nothing, because he knew that Amy could enter and leave Mr. Beltran’s office as she pleased.
Hearing Mr. Beltran call her in, Amy opened the door, went inside, and walked to the desk.
“Mr. Beltran, Eric says she has photos. You might be able to identify the person who met with the director back then from the pictures.”
Xavier looked at Amy. “Did she get a picture of the person who made the director arrange the illegal blood donation at the hospital?”
Amy replied, “Eric said that on that day, the director called her into the office to talk about the blood donation. She saw a tall man in a black suit walking out of the director’s office, but he was wearing a mask, and she was standing some distance away, so she could only remember a vague outline.”
“But a few days later, she saw that man again in the hospital. Although he was still wearing a mask, she recognized him as the same person at a glance.”
“She only managed to take a picture of his back and the car he got into, which was a black business van.”

“She said she got the license plate number, but she insists on meeting you in person before she gives you the photos. Also, she’s demanding twenty million.”
“She said her parents are old, and her mother has this illness and needs a caregiver, which is very expensive, so she needs that much money.”
Xavier said calmly, “So, she doesn’t know who ordered the director to break the rules, but she suspects it was this man?”
“Yes, Mr. Beltran. She said it must have been that person who ordered the director to break the rules.”
Xavier lowered his eyes, tapping his fingers on the desk in thought. After a moment, he used the intercom to call Ryan in and asked:

When is the novel ending? It’s so unnecessarily long… not a single intimacy or connection just fighting and bickering from the beginning to end...
