Maia smiled at Mr. Welbeck. This smile was sweet and gentle, but it gave off a razor–sharp feeling.

As the president of Starlight Entertainment, she could never let an outsider embarrass her like this. Once word got out, it would damage the company’s reputation.

However, such behavior was truly unnecessary.

Welbeck looked at Maia and smiled, “Indeed, a friend of mine has an only son, but he’s quite at spendthrift. So, he’s considering hiring a good manager to plan for the future.”

Maia nodded with a smile, “Sure, I’ll have my assistant compile a list for you, and you can pass it on to your friend.”

“How can I trouble you with this?” Mr. Welbeck was polite in his response.

“Mr. Welbeck, firstly, you’re a senior in the business world. Secondly, when Elena marries Errol, we’ll be family. Just based on that, if you’re busy, I will help to the best of my ability,” Maia’s words were tactful and gentle, leaving no room for criticism.
