A Wound that Never Heals

Chapter 147 Stay Here With Me

Gustave looked troubled. “I’ve already promised Mr. Mullen. And I don’t need more investment in my film and television company for the time being.

“I accepted a little investment from Mr. Mullen because he has excellent directors in hand. If Mr. Mullen brings those directors over, the newcomers in my film company might be made popular.”

Braylen slapped the table and sat down beside Gustave. “Gustave, you are not seeing me as your friend. There are also some great directors in my company. If Mr. Mullen can bring some directors to your place, I can as well.

“Besides, Mr. Mullen doesn’t necessarily have to invest in this. I just want to try something new and invest in the booming film and television industry. Mr. Mullen, how about giving this chance to me?”

Kadin looked surprised. “Well… Why did you suddenly become interested in the film. industry, Mr. Swale? Isn’t this a little far from the Swale family’s line of business?”

Braylen replied, “I just want to give it a try. Businessmen do whatever is profitable. You and Gustave have both made a fortune in the film and television industry. Why don’t you let me in to get a share, Mr. Mullen?”

Gustave pretended not to make a concession. “That doesn’t make sense. You can invest in some other company. I have already made a deal with Mr. Mullen. How can I go back on my word?”

Braylen immediately went to Kadin with a glass of wine. “How about it? Let me have it, Mr. Mullen. If you want to make an investment, you can invest in companies under the Swale family. I will guarantee that you will make a good profit.

“If you’re short of money and need some investment, I’ll have my assistant talk to you about investing in your company.”

Kadin was a little stunned by Braylen’s words. There was no way Kadin dared to not give

Braylen any face. After hearing Braylen’s flattering and having several toasts from Braylen, Kadin finally agreed to give Braylen the opportunity to invest.

After settling the deal with Kadin, Braylen turned back to Gustave. “Gustave, let’s make a deal, OK? I’m taking a 20% stake in your film and television company.”

Gustave raised his finger and knocked on the contract on the table. He was not in a

hurry to agree. “It’s not the norm. Your Swale family doesn’t do this line of work. If I suddenly accept your investment, I’m afraid it won’t be easy to explain it to the shareholders.”

Braylen was a little impatient. “Doesn’t that film company belong to you alone? It’s not under the Walpole Group. It’s up to you to decide.”

As Braylen spoke, he looked at the contract on the table. It was the one the Gallard Group had broken.

Braylen reached out and took the contract away. “I suddenly found it was pretty good cooperation. There is no need to think about it anymore. Let’s sign the contract.
