Purchased A Mr. Right -
Chapter 1978
...
After school in the evening, Desmond came to pick her up.
He came here directly from his company by a business car.
The car window was half-open. He beckoned her by curling his finger with his elbows against the car window. Mia quickly ran over.
Looking at her skillfully getting into the car, Aubree sighed with admiration.
At noon, her handsome brother came to see her, and at night, such a gorgeous husband came to pick her up.
She was the winner of life!
The driver and the secretary were there in the car.
After the secretary hung up the phone, his face was full of worry.
Desmond leaned over and asked lazily, "Did things go wrong?"
"Yes." The secretary nodded and sighed. "I've taken the initiative to contact Windy Cartoon many times, but I didn't get any positive response. Besides, their editor kept his lips buttoned, so I failed to get any inside news from him. He said that the personal information about the author was confidential according to the contract. I guess it's impossible for us to replace the author Twilight, let alone replace a way to persuade her to sell the copyright to us..."
In the end, he couldn't help complaining. "Alas, it's too difficult to deal with the author!"
Mia, hearing this, was speechless.
Desmond nodded.
Since Mia was still in the car, Desmond didn't want to talk about work anymore. He changed the topic and turned to poke the cartoon pendant hanging on her little bag.
He asked, "Where did this come from?"
The pendant was a palm-sized doll, the Pooh Bear.
He clearly remembered no pendant was hanging on her school bag when she left home this morning.
He answered with a smile, "It's from my brother. He came to see me at school at noon. We had a meal together. The clerk sent us a small gift when he paid the bill. Then he tied it onto my bag!" His eyes narrowed as he snorted. "So ugly!"
"Is that so?" She douted it because she thought it very cute.
His face darkened as he said in a disdainful tone, "I'll take this ugly thing!"
After that, he tore off the pendant.
All right. Mia had to accept the result.
The commercial car was some distance away from the school. Mia was a little hungry and was looking forward to having dinner. "What shall we eat for dinner?" Desmond said sourly, "Chaffy dish!"
In the end, they ate what he'd like to have.
When they returned home in the evening, it was still early. Mia went to the study with her laptop.
She planned to sort out the sketches on the computer. Besides, she had to deal with the coming exams before the winter holiday.
While she was busy dealing with her things, Desmond also entered the study.
Mia thought he was also here to work, but he didn't. Instead, he went straight to her, pushing the things on the desk aside and then placing her on it.
He kissed affectionately.
It was too late for her to put him away, so she simply accepted this kiss in a daze.
When they had dinner in the evening, she felt that he was a little strange. It seemed that he wanted to make love with her vehemently, like what he had done the day when Dan returned from abroad. His phone suddenly rang.
Desmond was a little irritated after being interrupted. He took out his phone, casually tossed the phone on the desk, and put it on speaker.
It was a strange number, and there came a female voice. "Mr. Chin-"
Mia felt it a little familiar.
He asked, "Who is it?"
"I'm Sonya." Hearing his indifferent tone, Sonya hesitated for a moment before answering him. After she introduced herself, she explained her purpose. "I heard that your company wanted to get the right of 'Magic Universe' and put it on screen. I have some personal connections with the author. If you agree to my terms, I'll help you..."
Desmond hung up before she could finish her words.
He was afraid that Sonya would call him again and disturb them, so he turned off the phone.
After that, Desmond focused on one thing.
The atmosphere in the study was electric and romantic.
Soon, the winter vacation came after the exam.
Since Mia didn't have to go to class every day, she spent most of her free time practicing violin at home or drawing.
She stayed up late last night. Of course, it was not because she was busy doing her work. Instead, she was nearly exhausted after having sex and failed to get up early.
By the time she woke up, Desmond had finished washing up.
Mia yawned as she watched him pick a yellow tie. "Are you going to talk about the copyright with Windy Cartoon today?"
He nodded. "Yes."
She gave him a big smile. "Don't worry. Everything will go well!"
He also smiled. "Thanks to your lucky words."
He looked down at Mia, who was lying under the quilt. There were some love-making marks on her white and round shoulders exposed in the air. The scene distracted him. He suddenly had an impulse to go to
back to the bed and do something
intimate with her.
However, she seemed to have learned what he thought from his eyes and shrank into the blanket.
Desmond let go of this idea.
It seemed that he also had the potential to be a fatuous and self-indulgent ruler.
After breakfast, the secretary came to pick up Desmond. Not long after they left, Mia also went upstairs, changed her clothes, and went out.
Mia entered the office building of Windy Cartoon and walked towards the elevator.
When a staff member saw her, he mmediately followed her and said, "Sorry, Miss, this elevator..."
She couldn't use this elevator.
Only the internal staff of Windy Cartoon could use it, so he came over to remind him.
But before he could finish his words, Mia had already entered the elevator. She took out a silver card from her bag, put it on the reading device, and pressed the number.
Mia was confused. "What's wrong?"
He was stunned and quickly said, "It's okay. Please!"
She went up to the 20th floor.
As soon as she came out, she met a familiar face.
Wearing a pair of large, black sunglasses, Sonya stood there with an air of a celebrity. When she saw her, she took off her eyes and muttered in shock and displeasure, "Mia? Why are you here?" Sonya had specially come here to wait for Twilight.
Knowing that Twilight would show up today, she wanted to curry favor with her.
Ever since E.M Entertainment ended
its contract with her, she had had a
tough time. For the sake of her career as a star, she had to keep a low profile. Then with the help of a rich man, she managed to open a formal studio so that she could stay in the entertainment industry.
It was just the rich man that she hooked up with was very old, far inferior to the elegant and handsome Desmond, which made her very disgusted.
Sonya was unwilling to give up on Desmond.
She was still thinking about him and wanted to replace an opportunity to return to E.M Entertainment.
She thought that Desmond fired her only because Mia forced him to do so.
The chief editor of Windy Cartoon
was her classmate, who had offered her a lot of internal news. Some time ago, Twilight contacted the chief editor in private and asked about the copyright. The chief then told Sonya that Twilight wanted to selkthe copyright.
Sonya learned that E.M Entertainment had been trying to obtain the copyright of Magical Universe recently, so she was determined to seize this opportunity.
According to her old classmate, the chief editor, Twilight wouldn't deal with anything except for handing in the works. Thus, he might deal with the copyright for Twilight and transfer the copyright to Sonya.
There was some romantic involvement between them when they were young. Besides, Sonya had promised him a lot of benefits. So, the editor readily agreed to help her.
At this moment, Sonya looked a little displeased.
She got fired because of Mia.
Therefore, when she saw her, her heart was full of resentment.
Mia smiled lightly and said in a soft voice, "You'll know why I'm here in a while."
