Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 583 The Power of Rich Women

Lance smiled awkwardly, "Hehe, Ms. Fleur, you have a unique taste."

Clara replied, "Violeta is unavailable, so there's no need for us to continue. I'll discuss this further in our meeting when I return." Lance nodded. "Sure, sure."

Out of courtesy, Clara had her assistant take the stack of celebrities' profiles with them as they left.

Even though she had her preferences, she couldn't be too dismissive of the other celebrities-it would be too rude.

Lance walked Clara out himself.

Lance stopped mid-motion while opening the office door and gave Eugene an annoyed look. "Do you ever do anything? You startled me!"

Eugene shrugged. "What else can I do? My actress is busy with shoots, and I've got nothing to do. I've been so bored lately, I figured I'd come hang out with you." Lance went into the office.

Eugene breezed in and flopped onto the sofa, lounging like he owned the place.
