Chapter 251: Questioning The Old Man

Natalie was on the phone with Ella, who was informing her that Silvia’s contract with her previous company had ended, and she was now ready to sign with their company.

Natalie wasn’t surprised by this outcome. "Offer her the contract we’ve already prepared. If she has any minor demands, just agree to them."

"I also got the news that NovaFrame Studios wants to sign Victor and Silvia as the lead actors in their next movie. I think it’s because of their current popularity from our perfume launch and the statement they gave against Briena. Fans are shipping them together, saying they have great chemistry in real life too."

NovaFrame was the same production house that had signed Briena for one of their movie projects.

Natalie raised an eyebrow, her thoughts briefly lingering. It was good news for her company to have such a big project, but it was so sudden for her to believe quickly.

Since Natalie wasn’t in the office, she and Ella discussed a few more things before ending the call. As she put her phone down, her gaze shifted to the stairs leading to Justin’s study, where he had taken her grandfather earlier to talk without disturbing her call.

"What could they possibly be talking about for so long? It’s been over half an hour," she murmured, standing up from the sofa. She headed toward the staircase but paused at the first step.

Justin’s words echoed in her mind: "Do not dare climb the stairs on your own. Once you’re done with the call, wait for us in the drawing room."

’I’m feeling better now. I can manage a few stairs instead of making Grandpa come down,’ she thought to herself, deciding to proceed.
