Chapter 938 - Not That Great
That night, after Lilia finished feeding Lian, she went back to her room and fell asleep.
Jean was in his study and called Chris.
"What reality show will she star in?" The man immediately asked when Chris answered the phone.
On the other end of the phone, Chris was smoking and sitting in his office with his legs crossed on the table. "Oh, you already know?"
The man narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice, "In the ward, you asked Alex to be a guide for Lilia's wardrobe for some of the reality shows."
Chris blew out the smoke and smiled. "I think all your attention was on Lilia that time. What do you think if the name of the show is "Love in the House"?
"This reality show is a show recording the married lives of celebrities jointly launched by Gaia and a local television station. Jean, I'm planning to invite three other couples to this event. You and Lilia will be the main guests. Is it interesting enough?"
After the words fell, Chris heard a faint voice on the phone. "It's not a very good name."
He was suffocating from the smoke. Chris irritably twirled the cigarette butt in the ashtray, took a sip of tea from his cup, and forced himself to speak again. "The name is only temporary, not final yet! I let Harold explain the event to Lilia and invite her. How about you? Shouldn't you be showing some faces?"
After half a second of silence, a light voice came over the phone, and the person said in an even voice, "Okay, for my fee, come to my office and we'll discuss it."
"No, Jean ..."
Before Chris could speak, the phone was closed.
He looked up, frowned and threw his cell phone directly to the table in disgust.
They have a strong friendship, he just had to forget about paying a fee to his own friend!
Want to get the services of Jean Widjaya? Of course you have to pay for it!
Chris' face became sullen, his hands tapped on the handrails one after another. He wondered, should he immediately deduct Jean's fee from Lian's stock?!
After thinking about it for a long time, Chris gave up.
After another smoke, he picked up the phone again from the table, and after checking the time, he made an overseas call.
"Brother!"
Merry's sharp and lively voice sounded in his ears, and Chris' heart was refreshed.
He shook his overlapping toes and lay down on the chair lazily. "Are you awake?"
"Ah, yes, I'm awake!" Merry opened her eyes wide.
She gripped her cell phone and looked up at the clear sky outside the window.
She had been playing games all night, and she hadn't slept.
Don't let Chris know about this! Otherwise, she would be scolded!
Chris didn't see anything wrong, and after routinely inquiring about her academic progress, he said in a persuasive tone, "Have you contacted Lilia?"
Merry covered her mouth and said sadly, "I've called, but she still won't let me come back. She has given me a younger brother, and I don't know when I will see him."
Chris trembled when he heard the little girl's soft and flirtatious tone. So crunchy.
He suddenly remembered one thing, he was Lian's godfather, but this little girl thought of Lian as her brother.
What a strange relationship!
Chris then coaxed her with a few words, and said firmly, "You're not allowed to come back, you should focus on your studies now. But don't worry, you can see Lilia on TV again in three months at most."
If it wasn't for Jean and little Lian, Chris would definitely ask Lilia to do this reality show for Merry right away!
...
The next day, at 8.30am, Chris came to Jean's office with the contract draft.
Kenny gave him a cup of hot tea. As soon as he turned outside, he heard Chris speak behind him. "Kenny, how is your relationship with Maria?"
Hearing his voice, Kenny looked back and chuckled. "Fine!"
He's been chasing her for half a year, and he hasn't caught her yet!
Chris, who was sitting on the sofa, chuckled. His slender legs folded his ankles in front of him, then jokingly said. "Really? Then I might have heard wrong. Alex seemed to have said the wrong thing a while ago. He said that a young man was after her, did you know about this?"
Kenny's heart tightened, his expression stunned!
After seeing this, Chris casually put his arm on the back of the sofa chair and raised his eyebrows. "Don't you know? How about you check it out? Alex said that the young man is from a rich family!"
Kenny swallowed his fear as he pressed the doorknob, and after hastily thanking him, he turned and walked out quietly.
He had to go to the Van brand headquarters!!
He had chased Maria for so long, he would not let anyone else capture the heart of the woman he adored!
So what if his rival is rich? After all, he is half a generation rich!
In the office, Chris looked up comfortably and leaned against the back of the sofa, licking the corners of his mouth, and flashing a smile in his eyes.
Kenny had followed Jean for years.
He hadn't had a girlfriend in his 30s, and he'd been working all day.
Eventually, he fell in love with one of the directors in Alex's company. If the two of them could really be together, it would be considered a great relief!
Chris thought about it for a while, maybe the atmosphere in this office was too comfortable, and it didn't take him long to fall asleep in a daze.
...
At 9:30 in the morning, Jean came into his office. And as soon as he pushed open the door, he saw Chris asleep with his hands around his chest, and there was a folder next to the sofa.
The man's thin lips tilted slightly, and he walked over to his desk without bothering him, and plunged into his routine of work.
After about ten minutes, Chris seemed to be muttering in a dream. "Hug me..."
Jean's hand movements suddenly stopped.
He stared at Chris vaguely, his slightly narrowed eyes filled with pleasure.
After a few seconds, Chris woke up!
He still maintained his original posture, slowly opened his eyelids, and there was still a lingering smile visible on his thin lips.
"Already up?" The man's low voice floated through the air, and Chris immediately realized something was wrong.
He put his arm on his chest, rubbed his sleepy face, and when he turned he saw the man looking at him with a relaxed expression.
Chris was confused. "When did you come here?"
The man glanced at him and didn't speak. As he turned his head and continued gesturing, he asked in a deep voice. "Does Samuel still not know about you and Merry?"
"I don't know!" Chris then changed the subject as his thoughts ebb and flow. "I brought you the contract you wanted. You can take a look and give some suggestions! I didn't write down the amount of your fee, so write it yourself."
Chris said standing up, and as he walked over to the boss' desk with the file, he stretched his waist.
The man closed the document he was working on, took the folder Chris had handed him, and looked through it. "Is Gaia planning to enter the reality show field in the future?"
At this moment, Chris leaned against the window behind him and heard Jean's words. He answered the man's question.. "Interest in reality shows has increased in the last two years, and while it's still early days, my company also intends to get a share of the cake."
