Chapter 359:.
Hearing that, Alice didn’t get angry. Instead, she smiled with a raised eyebrow.
“Is that so? I thought your agent David hired me as a designer, not a maid or something. So this is all his fault. It looks like he’s going to cancel this cooperation. David, since you were the one who signed the contract, please transfer the contract cancellation fees to my account in time.”
After saying so, he took Yanis’ hand and greeted Kate with a smile, “Then, thank you for the contract cancellation fees. Come on, Yanis.”
Yanis still had no idea what had happened when Alice pulled her out the door.
“What was going on?”
David was also surprised. He hadn’t expected Alice to be so harsh and not seem to care at all about how her behavior affected his reputation.
He thought she would come personally and bend over to apologize.
He was surprised by her reaction.
“Is she the designer you found for me? You told me she was a first class designer.”
“Of course she is. Alice really is a top designer and you can look up her work on the Internet. But she had a reputation for being unruly when she was overseas. You should be nicer to her.”
“Excuse me. Who is she? I’m a top actress, why should I be nicer to her? I don’t think I can design anything top-notch. So let her go.”
“But what about her dress at the launch? There’s only a month left. If we hit on another designer…”
“Just find another designer overseas, or buy a ready-made dress. I won’t wear whatever she designs. What’s more, I’ll sue her. For daring to be so arrogant in front of me!”
“Sue her?” David blinked.
“Yes. Hasn’t she asked you to pay her contract cancellation fees? We’re taking her to court. So she won’t dare say that again.”
Yanis was slow to realize what had happened after Alice pulled her out of the door and said, “Alice!”. He pulled Alice to a halt and asked with a steady gaze, “What were you doing a moment ago?”
“As you saw, I got into a fight with them.” Alice replied indifferently.
“But now we have offended Kate James. She’s a popular actress in the country and doesn’t seem like an easy person to deal with. She doesn’t seem to want to pay the contract cancellation fees.”
“I know.”
“This is all my fault. I shouldn’t have been even a minute late. Even though I was angry with her, I don’t want you to suffer for this. I’ll apologize to her and make her let it go.”
Saying this, Yanis shook off Alice’s hand, turned around and headed toward the bedroom.
Alice stayed where she was and said coldly with her arms folded, “Are you coming back? I just got you out of there.”
“Or what else can I do? This is our first order since returning from overseas. I’m afraid it will affect the development of your business in the country.”
“Are you going to grovel before all those who insult you just so that the development of my business won’t be affected? Weren’t you angry when he said those insulting words to you?”
“Yes.” Yanis said angrily and sucked his lower lip, “But she gives a lot of money, Alice…”
“I ask you a question.” Alice sighed resignedly, “You’re a minute late, aren’t you.” Yanis nodded.
“Have you apologized to her?”
“Yes, I have. I said something nice to her but she ignored me.
Never mind. Anyway, I was late, even if I was a minute late. I realized my guilt and apologized to her, but I didn’t expect…”
“You didn’t expect her not to accept your apology and ignore you and call me to come and question me, did you?”
“Yes… although I was angry, I didn’t dare to disrespect you in front of her. I only dare to complain in front of you.”
Hearing what Yanis said, Alice couldn’t help but smile resignedly. She pointed her finger at Yanis’ forehead and said, “I’m not afraid to disagree with those people who insult us.”
“But the order…”
“You know how unruly I am, and it’s no great loss. What’s more, it was very insulting.
We don’t have to be so humble. Let’s go home, as Jack is waiting for you at home.”
Saying this, Alice turned and walked forward. With resignation, Yanis had to follow her. But she still felt sorry and said, “I still think this is all my fault. I shouldn’t have called you and it’s only made things worse.”
“Calm down. Kate James is not an easy person to deal with. Even if you didn’t call me, things would still get worse.”
“Really?” Yanis said.
A man stopped Alice as they walked ahead.
Yanis remembered it was the assistant manager who had mistaken them for fans. He immediately asked, “Can we help you, assistant director?”
The assistant director fixed his gaze on Alice’s face. This time he didn’t look so serious and stared at Alice with a smile.
“I hear you are a foreign designer.”
Alice nodded with a raised eyebrow, “Nice to meet you.”
“You are too polite. You have a good image, do you want to be an actress? I’m not satisfied with one of our supporting actresses. I think you are more suitable for that role. So, do you want to try?”
This was certainly a good opportunity for any actress. Almost all actresses would agree to such an invitation.
However, Alice was not interested at all.
“Thank you for your invitation, but I’m not interested in being an actress.”
Hearing that, the assistant director was a little disappointed, but quickly thought of something and said, “Aren’t you a designer? I know an actress who is looking for a designer, do you have any interest in her?”.
