Winnie said, "If I haven't terminated my contract with the company, this matter is really difficult to deal
with because the endorsement fee has to go through the company, but now the company is gone,
whatever I say goes, so what else is wrong? "
Sherry asked, "Does this mean we can pay in installments?"
Winnie was at a loss for words.
She then leaned back on the couch and said slowly, "Anyway, I don't have much work lately, and I'm
bored staying at home, so I'll consider it as re-employment. I don't need any endorsement fee."
Stella and Sherry exchanged glances.
Stella pursed her lips, "No, we still have to follow the rules. Let's sign a contract, and we'll pay you
monthly."
Sherry also nodded, "Yes, no matter what, we can't let you bear this loss. We can't afford to pay the fee
now, but in the future..."
"I didn't suffer any loss, alright?" Seeing their resolute attitude, Winnie thought for a while before
saying, "How about this? I've been working for so many years, and I still have some savings in my
hand. Would you guys…consider making me your shareholder?"
"Shareholder?"
The voices of both Stella and Sherry rang out at the same time, with a hint of doubt.
Winnie replied, "Yes, it just so happens that I recently had the idea of making investment. And here
comes an opportunity! As a shareholder, endorsement is naturally part of my responsibility, no matter
how much you earn, you just need to give me the dividends."
Stella still felt that they were taking advantage of Winnie and was a little hesitant, "But..."
"Or do you guys have no confidence and think that the future earnings of the studio won't be as much
as my endorsement fee?"
Sherry immediately slapped her thigh and said, "That's it, deal!"
Speaking of which, Sherry looked at Stella, "Stella, I think she has a point, we have plans to expand
our scale. Relying on our own strength is not sufficient, and now that Winnie wants to be our
shareholder, isn't this a perfect timing?"
After a moment, Stella looked at Winnie and smiled. "Thank you for your trust in me, you won't lose
anything by partnering with us, I promise you."
Winnie smiled back, "Then I'll wait for the dividends."
Sherry added, "Since our collaboration was decided, I still need to contact..."
Winnie said, "Leave the endorsement affairs to me. Although my work team didn't follow me out of the
company, I still have some connections, so there's no problem with any publicity and promotion."
Sherry said, "All right, I'll look for a shooting spot, we can't shoot in this small studio anymore."
After talking about the business, Stella asked Winnie, "Did Chassell come to harass you recently?"
Winnie shook her head, "I heard Cha...I heard that he's guilty as a cat in a fish bowl, but he has run
away, and I'm not sure if he has been found."
When Sherry heard these words, she frowned and couldn't help but roasted, "This bastard doesn't stop
stirring up troubles even when his number is up. You must be careful, lest he play any tricks on you
again."
Winnie said, "Don't worry, he can't get into our neighborhood, the security guards recognize him."
Sherry was confused, "Why?"
When the words reached the tip of her tongue, Winnie felt a little embarrassed to spit them out, then
she laughed dryly and took two sips of water.
Stella and Sherry got the message and both of them didn't ask any further questions.
Winnie stayed until almost seven o'clock before she left, and after seeing her off, Sherry stretched
herself lazily. "This problem is finally resolved. That's a weight off my mind."
Stella replied, "Let's go back, I've nothing to do today, I'll cook for you."
At these words, Sherry hesitated for a moment and seemed to be stumped.
Before Stella had a chance to ask why, a male voice came from behind her, "Sherry, Ms. Radomil."
It was Brandon Chang.
Stella turned her head and greeted him, "Mr. Chang."
Brandon said, "Since Ms. Radomil is Sherry's friend, there is no need to be so polite, just call me
Brandon."
Stella replied with a smile, "Then Mr. Chang, you can call me by my name as well."
Looking at Stella and Brandon exchanging pleasantries, Sherry said to Brandon, "Sorry, I forgot to tell
you that Stella is back, maybe you should go back tonight...?"
Brandon said gracefully, "How about this? Miss... Stella, if you don't mind, I'd like to treat you to a meal
to thank you for taking care of Sherry all this time."
Stella glanced at Sherry, who quietly spat her tongue at her.
Stella then looked toward Brandon and said with a smile, "It's nothing. Actually it's Sherry who takes
care of me most of the time..."
Halfway through the sentence, she paused and continued, "Excuse me, I'd like to make a phone call."
Brandon made a gentlemanly gesture to Stella, signaling her to go ahead.
Stella turned around and walked towards the office.
Sherry said to Brandon, "Find yourself a place to sit for a while, I'll be right out."
Brandon smiled gently. "Okay, there's no rush."
Sherry followed Stella into the office, and saw she was reaching for her phone, so she closed the door
and whispered, "Stella, I forgot to tell you that recently, he came to pick me up every day, and I would
have dinner with him in the night."
Stella asked, "How do you feel?"
Sherry thought for a while and replied, "It's hard to say, but all in all, it's much better than the very
beginning. I'm not so repulsed by him anymore. He's really quite nice."
Stella said to her, "Wait, I'll call Clarence."
"Well, take your time, I'll go pack up my stuff first."
"All right."
When the call was answered, Stella said, "Are you coming back for dinner tonight?"
Clarence said, "It's been a busy day. You go back first, no need to wait for me."
Stella said, "Sherry's...blind date came to pick her up and wanted to invite me to have dinner with them.
If you don't come back, then I'll join them."
Clarence flipped through the documents in front of him, only concerned about someone inviting her to
dinner, so he asked offhandedly, "A man or a woman?"
You tell me.
She said without good humor, "Sherry's blind date! You do the math."
Clarence pressed his tongue against his teeth, chuckled soundlessly, closed the file and pinched his
brow. "Why did he invite you to dinner?"
"Maybe he just wants to get to know the friends around Sherry, so he can get closer to her or whatever.
Sherry keeps saying he's nice, and I feel like figuring it out."
"Got it, you have to go home right after dinner."
Stella agreed as she wasn't going to be the third wheel either.
Before hanging up, she asked again, "Will you be home late?"
Clarence said, "There's another video conference, and I'll go back after it's over."
Stella tsked, "All right, I'll leave you to it".
She had expected that Clarence could take a well-deserved break after leaving the Conrad Group.
But after just a month or two, he was caught up in the hectic pace of work again.
After hanging up, Stella put away her phone, grabbed her bag and left the
office.
