Chapter 75: Pressure from All Sides

As soon as Cecilia mentioned the matter, Sophia remembered what Susie had brought up.

She wordlessly repeated Susie’s project.

Cecilia couldn’t help but vent her frustration:

“They actually approached me with such a lousy play? How ridiculous! Does the young girl not know the importance of being down–to–earth? Does she think she can climb up by stepping on me?”

Sophia had said a few soothing words, but Cecilia hung up the phone before she had cooled down.

She could only talk to Brycen again, asking him to soothe Cecilia.

That afternoon.

Mike had called Sophia, asking her to go to the office.

This was the first time it was so serious.

Sophia knocked and entered.

Surprisingly, Colin and Susie were both in Mike’s office.

Mike reached out to greet her:

“Ms. Cruise, did you meet Mr. Hamilton?”

“Of course, we had met before.”

Sophia walked over with a smile and sat across from Mike.

Susie stood behind Colin, not sitting down.

A slight smirk played on Colin’s lips:

“This Ms. Cruise you’re looking for has quite a big ego, huh? I invited her over for tea and she refused. Such a temper, she must look down on me, this Mr. Hamilton!”

Mike chuckled, “If she doesn’t even fancy me, let alone you.”

Colin stiffened slightly, looking at him:

“Mr. Brant, after all these years of friendship, you’re still joking with me like this?”

“Alright, alright, just tell me, why did you have me call her over?”

Mike smoothed things over with a laugh.

Colin had a tense expression:

“Susie had a project that required an actor. Coincidentally, Ms. Cruise was quite familiar with this actor and wanted her to help. Unfortunately, she refused!”

“I guessed that Susie’s reputation wasn’t enough, so I thought adding you and me should make it sufficient!”

Mike’s hand paused slightly as he poured the tea, then he looked at Colin with suspicion, his smile fading away.

“Who was the actor you hired?”

“Are there still actors in the circle that we, Eagle Entertainment, can’t invite? Mr. Brant, can you just tell me if you can help with this?”

Colin wanted to humor him into agreeing to this matter first.
