Noble Pampering: Demon CEO's Relentless Entanglement-Chapter 923 - 919: Someone Wants to Act with Her (Part 2)
The director was stalling for quite a while; Daniel Hughes was already getting impatient.
"Are we shooting this scene or not?" Daniel Hughes just kept yelling, really acting like a big shot.
The director was inwardly filled with complaints.
He pondered for a moment, and suddenly a light bulb went off—aha, he had an idea.
"Alright, Young Master Hughes, don’t worry, I’ll speak to Sophie Smith right now." The director slinked away from Daniel Hughes’ sight.
He didn’t go directly to find Sophie Smith, but first stepped into the adjacent lounge, pulled out his phone, and dialed the secretary’s office of the Golden Era Consortium.
The only solution now was to find Asher Land.
Daniel Hughes insisted on filming a bed scene with Sophie Smith, and since Daniel Hughes’ father was an investor in this film, the director couldn’t openly defy Daniel Hughes. But if Asher Land were called here, things might take a dramatic turn.
If Asher Land rushed over, Daniel Hughes might not dare to pursue Sophie Smith. Even if he did, it would be a battle between Daniel Hughes and Asher Land, and the director could wash his hands of it.
Hmm, he suddenly felt like a genius. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎
The secretary’s office quickly answered the call.
But the director, having neither official business with Asher Land nor an appointment, struggled with how to explain to the secretary.
"Hello, this is the secretary’s office of Golden Era Consortium. May I ask what your business is?"
Seeing that no one was speaking, the secretary prompted again.
"Oh, it’s like this..." the director hesitantly began, "this is Sophie Smith’s film crew. Uh, I’m looking for President Land because of something concerning Miss Smith..."
The director wasn’t sure if that explanation would work.
Of course, to the secretary, hearing the name Sophie Smith was incredibly exciting.
Lately, the big boss had been particularly temperamental and fiery. The secretaries were all reluctant to deliver documents, and no one dared to enter Asher Land’s office. According to the secretaries’ speculations, this matter was most likely related to Sophie Smith.
The only one capable of handling their big boss might just be Sophie Smith.
"Please hold on for a moment, I’ll connect you to President Land’s direct line right away."
Soon, the call went through.
"What is it?"
Upon hearing Asher Land’s extremely cold voice, even over the phone, the director couldn’t help but shiver.
"Oh, President Land, I’m the director of Sophie Smith’s new film crew..."
Sophie Smith?
Upon hearing that name, the pen Asher Land held snapped in two from excessive force.
He held his breath, his entire body tensing up.
"President Land..."
Asher Land didn’t respond, leaving the director feeling uneasy.
"Speak."
With just one word coming from the other end, the director felt something was amiss.
Despite feeling a bit anxious inside, the director shakily started to explain the situation with Daniel Hughes.
As soon as Asher Land heard, he was instantly engulfed in fury, almost exploding with rage. Who was this person who dared to covet his woman?
He dropped the phone on the desk and stormed out of the office.
"President Land..." The secretary was about to go in to deliver documents, but when Asher Land burst out, she was so startled that she nearly fell over, saving herself only by holding onto the doorframe.
Asher Land practically ran to the parking lot to get his car. He floored the gas pedal, heading straight for the filming location the director mentioned.
