Please Come Back, Honey!

Please Come Back, Honey! Chapter 147

Joseph came into the office whistling that morning. Because Crystal had hired him to be the manager of the Film and Television Department, he was more or less a senior executive in Crystalite Entertainment.

Sometime earlier, Trevor had blocklisted him and his team, nearly forcing him to make a career change.

Later, Crystal came to him and said she was starting her own company and wanted to work with him. He took up her offer without another word. It didn’t matter if Crystal had the competence to manage a company; her father was wealthy anyway.

Crystal was Thomas’ only child, and he would definitely throw tons of cash into her company. By then, Joseph could bag good bonuses without making any real effort.

Voilà, he heard Thomas bought this opulent floor for his precious daughter. But not long after he sat in his office, Crystal’s assistant came to him, saying Crystal was lashing out in her office for some reason and that he should check it out.

A sense of foreboding immediately surged within Joseph. This doesn’t have anything to do with the script we gave Wilson, does it?

Could one blame Joseph for having premonitions like this? He was constantly conscience-stricken when he knew he had obviously done the wrong.

Thus, he rushed to Crystal’s office only to be rendered pale-faced after hearing Wilson’s words from Crystal.

Denunciation within the industry was no small issue. Hence, he instantly suggested, “We’ll just go and apologize to Emma then.”

“No way!” Crystal shrieked. “I will not apologize to Emma! Ever!”

“Do you have another option?” Joseph felt utterly troubled. “Or do you want to be denounced?”

Crystal said nothing in response, clamping down on her teeth.

Crystal refused to apologize to Emma. But then, after some thought, he still tried to persuade her. “No matter what grudges you have with Emma, things aren’t looking up for us at all.
