Predestined Marriage
Chapter 444 Set a Trap for Her

Summer checked the comments and found that most of them were urging her to write the second part of 'Lost City'.

Some anti-fans were immediately reprimanded as soon as they posted malicious comments.

Summer turned off her phone and tidied up the tableware. She planned to call Leonardo later and ask him about Rosie's situation.

Just as she put away the cutlery, her phone rang.

A string of unfamiliar phone numbers flashed up on the screen.

Many strangers called her recently. Summer only took a glance and answered the phone. "Hello."

On the other end of the phone came a slightly familiar female voice. "Is that Summer?"

When Summer heard this voice, she paused for a moment and asked, "Eliza?"

"Is that really you?" Eliza couldn't conceal the surprise in her tone. "Recently you have been in a blaze of publicity. I think it is just a gimmick. To my surprise, it is you!" Eliza was optimistic about Summer's script.

When Lost City finished, Eliza wanted to ask Summer to participate in the wrap-up banquet. But she couldn't replace Summer at that time.

Summer didn't attend the banquet. Later, the viewing rate of 'Lost City' went up like a rocket. But Eliza couldn't contact Summer.

Summer had disappeared, and nothing was heard of her.

During these three years, Eliza had been paying attention to Summer's news. When she found that a new post was shared on Summer's Twitter, Eliza didn't believe Summer posted it herself. That was why Eliza waited for a few days. After confirming that it was really Summer, she called Summer.

Summer felt a sense of kinship with Eliza. She smiled, "It's me. I've been back for a while."

"Then let's meet sometime," Eliza said.

"Sure. Anyway, I am not busy lately."

Eliza was a person of action. Hearing Summer's answer, she directly said, "If you're free, how about meeting me today?"

Summer agreed. "Okay."

Summer and Eliza had an appointment at a high-end restaurant.

This restaurant was run by someone from the entertainment industry. Many insiders frequently patronized it.

Eliza looked even more capable and beautiful than three years ago.

As soon as she saw Summer, she hurriedly walked over and examined Summer. "It seems like you are the same."

Summer returned sincerely, "You are more beautiful."

"I'm tired of such praises. To my surprise, you are so hypocritical that you praise me the moment you see me," Eliza said with a look of disgust.

After she finished, she asked Summer to sit down.

They began to chat.

"Where have you been in the past three years? You just disappeared, and I heard nothing of you." Eliza couldn't help but shake her head when she remembered she couldn't replace Summer anywhere.

"I had an accident and I've been lying on bed for three years." Summer explained with studied understatement.

Eliza rounded her eyes wide. "You've been lying on bed for three years? Are you curious?" Summer raised her eyebrows and looked at her. "But I won't tell you what happened."

Eliza snorted and changed the topic. "Do you know that 'Lost City' has become a smash hit? Fans are looking forward to the second series. What do you think?" Eliza asked. Summer shook the cup in front of her and returned with a smile, "I have no idea."

Eliza stared at Summer for a few seconds and continued, "Tell me, how many percentages do you want?" Her voice carried a hint of compromise.

Previously, when Eliza bought Summer's script, she knew that Summer wouldn't put herself in a disadvantaged situation.

Summer was a very thoughtful person.

'Lost City' was a hit movie. It had been on fans' mind two years after it was broadcast.

Eliza was the producer and Summer was the scriptwriter. Both wanted to take advantage of its popularity to make more money.

Summer said that she had no ideas. In fact, she was just waiting for Eliza to ask first.

Summer smiled, appearing especially gentle. "It depends on how generous you are."

Eliza was surprised that Summer set a trap for her.

Summer did not say how much money she wanted but wait for Eliza to ask. Summer had seized the initiative.

Eliza used to think Summer was a cunning person. Now, she felt that Summer had become even more shrewd.

"I suspect you haven't been hospitalized for the past three years but have been improving yourself. You are getting more and shrewder." Eliza said angrily.

Summer slightly pursed her lips and replied, "I'll treat this as a compliment."

Eliza pouted her lips. Immediately, she became serious. "In order to show my sincerity, I can give you this for the last series of 'Lost City'."

As Eliza spoke, she raised her hand.

Remaining her composure, Summer asked with uncertainty, "How much?"

Eliza raised her chin slightly and said with a serious expression, "Five million."

Summer's hand, which was rested on the cup, paused slightly.

Five million was beyond her expectations.

Eliza earned a lot of money from 'Lost City'. But she signed a contract with Summer back then, and paid one million to buy out the copyright.

Eliza was willing to give Summer another five million for the copyright of the second series of 'Lost City'.

Eliza showed her good faith.

Summer did not respond immediately, and Eliza was not sure what Summer meant.

Summer was several years younger than Eliza. In front of Eliza, Summer was a rookie. But Eliza sometimes felt that she couldn't see through Summer, for the latter was a deep one. However, sincerity was one of Summer's virtues.

Because of this, Eliza did not beat around the bush with her and directly showed the greatest sincerity she could offer.

They looked at each other for a few seconds. Then Eliza said first, "This is my offer. You can consider it."

Summer did not answer her question directly. She only asked, "How do you plan to sign the contract with me for the second part of 'Lost City'?"

Eliza smiled, "As long as you are willing to sell it to me, everything will be negotiable."

Summer also smiled and nodded. "Alright."

Eliza did her work in a careful manner, and Summer had never thought of selling the script of next 'Lost City' series to anyone else.

Even though other people might offer a higher price than Eliza, they might not do a better job than Eliza's team.

At the very least, Summer could make money by selling it to Eliza.

Summer and Eliza discussed the plot of 'Lost City', and separated after lunch.

That afternoon, Eliza transferred five million to Summer's card.

After Summer received the money, she began to study the plot of the next series. She immediately searched for 'Lost City' online and intended to watch it.00000
