Chapter 97
Chapter 97
Katherine was in a good mood today, but she had not expected to run into Zack before leaving.
She was not expecting him to utter anything so cocky and selfish, yet he did! She and Zack had been divorced for almost seven months.
Her life was pleasant and comfortable after the divorce.
She was more outraged by her foolishness in the past three years when she thought about him, to be honest.
She did not think of turning her back once before! "Alexa, fill the bathtub with water; Katherine said to the Al assistant.
She could only relax while bathing in lavender-soaked water when she was in a terrible mood.
Katherine could not sleep well that night, most likely because she met Zack at the venue of Alice's birthday.
She had frequent dreams about incidents during her three years of marriage to Zack.
Just as when her alarm was about to ring, she opened her eyes up.
Because she did not get enough sleep, Katherine's mood was terrible.
It was still dark outside since the sun peeked over the horizon late every morning in winter.
Katherine snatched the coat beside her and put it on before getting out of bed to clean up.
Then, Celine called her while she was making breakfast.
"Good morning, Secretary Curtis” Katherine said as she picked up the phone.
"Good morning, Miss Wilson.I have emailed you the agenda for today's meeting."
"Thank you for your hard work.’’ At ten o'clock, there was a meeting.
It was a question of whether or not to vote for a Series B round of funding.
Katherine, as the largest stakeholder, was required to attend.
At around nine o'clock, after Katherine had breakfast, she drove to Future Technology.
The meeting lasted for about an hour and a half.
After a thorough examination of all the factors, all the votes passed the second vote.
As soon as the meeting ended, Katherine immediately left the company.
It was not that long after Katherine started driving that she received an unexpected call from someone.
Sean was the one who called.
She first mistook the call for a nuisance call and immediately hung up.
She would have never answered if Sean had not called her again.
"Hello, this is Katherine speaking.’ She answered.
"Katherine, this is Sean."
‘‘Oh, one of Zack's bastard friends” she thought.
She could not get a good night's sleep because of what had occurred the night before.
Katherine restrained her rage for the entire morning until Sean called her.
She could only conclude that she had been unfortunate.
"Is there a problem, Mr.Lewis?"
Sean scowled on the other end of the line.
Even though he could not see her, he could still hear Katherine's words that were filled with anger and irony.
"I heard you already bought the film rights to Transverse Wind." This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.
Katherine stopped the car when the traffic light in front turned red.
"Mr.Lewis’, you're more well-informed on the news than I thought.’
"I heard that you are planning to invest in the film yourself?” Sean said.
"Yes, are there any problems?" Katherine asked him.
"I don't think there is a problem.It is very easy to lose money in the film business.Have you considered pulling some investment to manage the risk?" Sean suggested.
Sean had already taken an interest in the copyrights of Transverse Wind and had dispatched personnel to inquire about them.
However, the opposing side had insisted on three million dollars.
The two-million-dollar price in the second round of funding was already extremely pricey, what more could they want?! Both sides, however, refused to move an inch.
Sean had intended to leave them alone for a few days before stepping back.
Finally, he was granted the authority to fix them for the sum of two million and five hundred thousand dollars.
However, the dream was beautiful but the reality was cruel.
Global Circle had previously grabbed the copyright of The People of Island movie due to Future Technology's involvement.
Sean had already eaten a mouthful of nonsense and defeat because of that! It had only been a few months, and he had just developed an interest in Transverse Wind.
But then, Silverlight Entertainment had appeared in the middle of nowhere and stole it again! Sean almost passed out because of shock when he received the news yesterday.
He called Katherine right after the meeting today.
However, as soon as he heard Katherine speak, he realized that this was undoubtedly a cold case.
He was unable to give up now that he had asked this question.
It was like gold-fishing in the sea with this beautiful IP. Getting a dark horse was not simple for him.
If someone shared the same vision as him, logically, he should be delighted.
On the other hand, Sean was not pleased to see the filming rights to this movie being taken away by someone else.The rights should have been his!
