Chapter 94: Dazed
When William Scott arrived at the company on Monday, Xenia Lewis was the first to be in his office. She sat opposite him and narrowed her eyes. “After I left, did my sister say anything?”
“You didn’t ask her yourself?” William Scott asked with a grin.
“If I ask her myself, wouldn’t I look guilty?” Xenia Lewis rolled her eyes at him.
William Scott chuckled and said, “Nothing happened. We just discussed how to deal with the situation in the future.”
“What should I do? I’m also at a loss at how we can resolve this in the future. Do I have to share a bed with you every time I go to your house? Oh, she can do that, but I can’t pretend to be her anymore.”
“Your sister’s idea was to come to my house for dinner in the future, but as for staying… we’ll go back to her house or go out to get a room.”
“Pfft, so you guys have already… Yet, you’re still pretending to be innocent in front of me.” Xenia Lewis curled her lips with a look of disdain.
William Scott did not explain and smiled without saying anything.
Xenia Lewis touched her chin and immediately said happily, “But this is not too bad. I can still eat dinner at your place in the future and then use this excuse to slip away.”
“You seem to make a lot of sense.” William Scott couldn’t help but smile.
“It isn’t easy for me to find a place for nice food. I can’t give up so easily. Do you think it feels good to order food every day? By the way, what else did you say?”
“Her mother’s birthday is coming up next month. We have to go back.”
“Oh Aunt’s birthday? Then I’ll join you both as well. I don’t think I’ve ever celebrated Aunt’s birthday before.”
“Then let’s go back together,” William Scott replied with a smile.
“Sure, let’s do it.”
After chatting for a while, Xenia Lewis left. From today onwards, they would officially start filming short videos. She was a part-time director, so she had to do everything herself. She instantly became very busy.
William Scott called Yasmin Sun over.
Sitting opposite his desk, Yasmin Sun looked very nervous as she surveyed him.
William Scott quipped, “CEO Lewis and I have read your script. We feel that it’s quite interesting.”
Yasmin Sun’s eyes lit up.
William Scott changed the topic and added, “However, there are still some areas that are still lacking. You still need to further refine them. I’ve already added comments to the script for you. You can study them when you go back.”
“Thank you, CEO Scott! Thank you!” Yasmin Sun stood up excitedly and bowed to William Scott.
He smiled and said, “The company needs positive and motivated employees. You’re a girl with ideas and you’re very hardworking. Both of us are aware. I hope you’ll continue to work hard in the future. The company will definitely give you better opportunities.”
“Yes, yes! I’ll definitely work hard. I’ll go back and amend the script immediately.” Yasmin Sun turned around abruptly.
Clang! The chair fell to the floor.
She frantically lifted the chair and looked at William Scott nervously. She stammered, “CEO Scott, I…”
William Scott waved his hand and said, “It’s fine. Don’t be in such a hurry next time.”
“Yes, yes.” Seeing that William Scott was not angry, Yasmin Sun stuck out her tongue and carefully walked out.
From inside the house, he watched as she turned to leave. He immediately heard a suppressed exclamation followed by the sound of her footsteps.
This made William Scott smile. The impression Yasmin Sun gave him had always been very pure. He did not expect this girl to be that adorable as well.
He still had an important task and he had to contact the different social media platforms. He also planned to contact people who were popular on these platforms to discuss the possibility of future cooperation.
This matter really gave William Scott a headache. It was not just a matter of bargaining. Their company was still new, so apart from being doubted, they were also being snubbed by others. Sometimes, the words they said were really unpleasant.
This made him very unhappy, but he could only deal with these people patiently.
At noon, he ate with Xenia Lewis. The two of them ordered a set meal together.
Xenia Lewis first picked up a piece of meat and took a small bite. She chewed it and immediately exclaimed, “Oh, it’s yummy! The meat today is really delicious. Try it.” As she spoke, she offered him the remaining half of the meat to William Scott.
He also opened his mouth and ate it. He nodded and said, “It’s nice. You can come to this restaurant more often in the future.” Then, he suddenly realized that Xenia Lewis had suddenly stopped moving. He looked up at her and said, “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing.” She lowered her head and picked up another piece of food, but her eyes were darting around.
William Scott wasn’t bothered and quipped, “I received an invitation today. There’s an event on Wednesday organized by a social media platform. I feel that our company has to participate and we might have the opportunities to gain something.”
Xenia Lewis looked up and said, “We have to participate in this event. We’re lacking in resources now. We have to gather more resources to produce the videos. Otherwise, without enough promotion for the videos we filmed, it will be very difficult for us to make an impact.”
William Scott nodded and said, “Then I’ll attend the event.”
Xenia Lewis pondered for a moment and said, “Then I’ll go with you. This is important.”
He said, “Sure. After all, I’m still inexperienced. I don’t have much confidence even if I go.”
He had never thought that he could do everything. Every profession had its specialties. At the very least, he was a beginner in this industry. There were many things that he had to learn.
Xenia Lewis continued, “What’s the specific schedule? It’s easier for me to arrange mine.”
William Scott answered, “They have plans for Wednesday night. The event is Thursday morning. We’ll have to reach on Wednesday afternoon.”
“Sure, no problem. Oh right, if we are going together, do you want to report to my sister?”
“That won’t be necessary. I’ll just say I have an event.”
“Yes. Let’s not tell her about our company for the time being.”
“Actually, it would be more convenient if I tell her. Otherwise, if she finds out that we’re together, we’ll have to explain.”
“Don’t tell her!” Xenia Lewis raised her chin, but there was a strange glint in her eyes.
