Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me

Chapter 196

sophistication that was beyond her years.Having nothing to hide from her, Timothy explained frankly, “I’m looking for a screenplay for Blake, but there isn’t a suitable one.”Elspeth wasn’t worried about that at all. How could Blake have trouble landing a role in film or on TV with his handsome looks? A lead male protagonist with Blake’s looks would easily win the hearts of countless girls with just a wink. “Is the problem about the lead actress?”Timothy nodded. “Yeah, the lead actresses are no good. I can’t find a lead actress that’d make a great couple with him.”Upon hearing this, Elspeth decisively dragged Yelena in front of him from behind her. “In that case, what about her?”Having kidnapped the lady last time, Timothy had to admit he was rather embarrassed at seeing Yelena right now. However, having spent a long time in the workplace, he had learned to know which side his bread was buttered on, so he soon regained his composure. “Yelena, huh… She’s not one of our company’s artists, no? Wouldn’t it be a waste of time and energy to negotiate with her agency to sign her on for the script?” Thinking from Luminous Entertainment’s perspective, he thought it wasn’t worthwhile doing so.Elspeth shook her head. “Yelena’s contract with her agency has ended already, so I’m going to sign her with Luminous Entertainment. What do you think?”A bad feeling suddenly crossed Timothy’s mind. “Don’t tell me… you want me to be her talent agent?”Elspeth snapped her fingers with a smile. “Bingo! That’s exactly what I want you to do.”Timothy immediately objected, “I already have enough headache acting as a talent agent for Blake alone, and now you want me to be Yelena’s talent agent as well? Why don’t you kill me right away instead?” He really didn’t want to manage two talents at once. If this were to go on, he’d definitely have his lifespan shortened. “I’ll double your salary.”Timothy hesitated for a moment. “But—”“Triple.”Hearing the word ‘triple,’ Timothy suddenly thought it was every employee’s duty to give their all for their company, so he shouldn’t shirk his duty. “I got it. I’ll work hard as her talent agent.” He eyed Yelena up and down; the young lady’s pretty and innocent looks were simply made for teen romance dramas. “I have eyes on a TV show that’s calling for a lead actor and a lead actress, and I suggest that we buy the rights to the show. Trust me; the show will definitely be a big hit!” He was very confident in his judgment.Elspeth trusted him, too. She replied with a nod, “I got it. If there’s anything you want to do right now, just go to the Finance Department for funding. There’s no need to go out of your way to come to me anymore.”This was the first time someone trusted Timothy so much, so he would be lying if he were to say he wasn’t touched. At this moment, he was full of zeal and couldn’t wait to start showing his capabilities immediately.Elspeth turned to smile at Yelena. “Alright, now that your place isn’t safe anymore, why don’t you stay here for the time being? There are hotel suites on the third floor. Just let Timothy pick the suite you like so that it’s convenient for you to come to work,” she said. Then, she said to Timothy, “As for the contract, Timothy, can you help print it out? The stamp is in the safe in my office; the passcode is six eights in a row.” With that, she left the room and returned home, leaving Yelena and Timothy in complete bewilderment in the office. Can the passcode… be disclosed to anyone?Elspeth didn’t go to the Winthrop Group in the afternoon. When she returned home and saw Callum, she was startled for a moment and almost unable to come to her senses. It’s not time to get off work yet, yet Callum is already at home. Something is amiss, no?“Where have you been?”Elspeth noticed that Callum seemed to have heaved a sigh of relief the instant he saw her. “What’s the matter? Only now do you know to come to me of your own accord, huh?”Callum looked away impassively. “I only came home to fetch some
