It Was You

Chapter 769 Treat You to Dinner

The corners of Cassandra's mouth twitched slightly, and she smiled awkwardly, "Well, you don't have to be so formal with me. You'd better call me Cassandra."

'Don't you think Miss Cassandra sounds weird?'

Hackett's heart beat faster and faster. He covered his chest with one hand and said as calmly as possible, "Okay, then... Can I help you? "

Cassandra touched her forehead and said, "Yes, I do have something to ask you for help."

A touch of disappointment flashed across Hackett's eyes, but it disappeared in a flash. He immediately asked, "What's the matter?"

Cassandra, "Here is the thing. You must have read the news that elder Auden is hospitalized because of his heart disease, haven't you?"

Hackett raised his head and glanced at the screen of the computer in front of him. He was a media man, and the media had a strong time effect. Therefore, as soon as the news that Auden was hospitalized came out, he immediately paid attention to it and arranged his subordinates to follow it up in real time. After all, Auden had a high position in the film and television entertainment industry, and had just cooperated with the Shen Group and announced that he would filming again.

At this critical moment, any news related to him, even some trivial details, would become a hot topic, and Hackett would naturally not miss it.

Hackett narrowed his eyes and asked, "Yes. Is there any problem?"

Cassandra immediately said, "I just heard from a friend that the reason why Auden agreed to filming this time is that Fiona, the lady of the Shen Group, has something on Crane, his only son. It is said that Crane was drugged in the club and lost his mind. He accidentally killed a bartender. At present, he has

been sent abroad by Auden, but he was arrested abroad for drunk driving. Elder Auden was so angry that he had a heart attack. "

Hackett's face changed dramatically. "You mean that Auden agreed to help the Shen Group because he was threatened by Fiona?"

Cassandra, "Yes, maybe it was a perfect plan from the beginning. But they didn't expect that Crane would be so disappointing. He made trouble as soon as he went abroad, which made Auden so angry that he had a heart attack and was sent to hospital."

Hackett frowned, "What do you want me to do?"

A hint of coldness flashed through Cassandra's eyes, and she said in a slightly cold voice, "If all these are true, the manipulator behind all this is Fiona. What we need to do is only to expose the truth."

Hackett, "Before making these news public, I will try my best to investigate it."

Cassandra smiled, "Of course. I heard it from my friend. I don't know if I can believe it or not. Please help me."

Hearing this, Hackett looked a little uncomfortable. He coughed slightly and said, "You don't have to be so polite to me. Can I invite you to dinner another day when you are free?"

They had met each other once since Cassandra made her identity public. In the past few days, Hackett had been recuperating in the hospital. He had tried many times, but he didn't have the courage to dial the number.

In the past few days, what Zed most said was "Forget her. I'll support you." the scene was very embarrassing.

Cassandra sighed, "You're too polite, Hackett. It's you who helped me this time. I should treat you for dinner, right? By the way, when will you leave the hospital?"

Hackett took a look at the plaster bandage on his foot and his face darkened. "It will take a few more days, but I'm fine now. I can go out."

Cassandra, "Then I'll treat you to dinner after you leave the hospital."

Hackett was stunned. Why did he say that it would take a few more days?

With a complicated look on his face, Hackett said, "Well, that's settled then."

Cassandra answered and hung up the phone. Anyway, this matter was temporarily solved. Next, she would wait for the report of Hackett, and then she would be able to expose the fake mask on Fiona's face.

Cassandra took a deep breath and went back to the set, preparing to shoot.

At the headquarter building of the GR Group.

In the CEO office.

Roger's face was extremely gloomy. Auden was hospitalized all of a sudden. The GR Group didn't have a substitute for the director of the same popularity at present. He agreed to cooperate with the Shen Group because of Auden, and he thought this time he could make a counterattack, but he didn't expect that this would happen all of sudden.

Damn!

Why did the old man, Auden, be sick now?

Standing in front of the desk, Vincent didn't even dare to breathe. His calfs trembled. He said carefully, "Mr. Roger, I've just asked Mr. Auden's assistant. He seems to be in a very serious condition this time. He hasn't come out of the operating room yet. What if... If something happens to Mr. Auden, then our movie... What should we do? "

The joint press conference of the Shen Group and the GR Group had just come to an end, and Auden fell ill at this time. Many online users were paying attention to the follow-up progress of the movie, and the outside world had all kinds of guesses that they would replace the director. However, with such a large investment, the new director might be compared with Auden at any time. Who would accept this hard and thankless offer?

Roger's face darkened as he snapped, "Keep an eye on Auden. Inform me immediately if anything happens. Besides, prepare a car for me."

Vincent was stunned, "Are you going out?"

Roger glanced at him coldly. Now that Auden was ill, if there was really an accident, the movie must be continued, and he had to find a substitute director to replace him as soon as possible.

Vincent felt a chill on his back and immediately said, "I... I'll arrange it right away!"

After Vincent left, the phone on Roger's desk rang. It was from Fiona.

It seemed that he was not the only one who was anxious this time. It was not a big deal for Fiona, who was rich, to invest one billion in a movie, but she couldn't make a mistake in this investment. Otherwise, she would lose face.

Therefore, no matter what happened, this movie should continue to be shot, and it should be made better than before.

A touch of disgust flitted across Roger's eyes, and he immediately picked up the phone, "Hello."

On the other side of the phone, Fiona's face turned livid. She stared at the tablet computer in front of her with gloomy eyes and tried to keep her voice as steady and elegant as usual. "Mr. Roger, I believe you have read the news this morning, haven't you?"

Roger's eyes darkened in an instant, but his expression did not change at all. He said, "The news that elder Auden is in hospital has been spread all over. No matter whether he can survive this or not, it is not good news for us."

"Yes, Mr. Roger, you are right. What are you going to do next?"

Roger kept silent for two seconds, "Mr. Auden has an extraordinary position in the film industry, and ordinary people can't compare with him at all. Therefore, we have to find a person with the same status as him to replace him. I have found the person."

"Oh? I wonder if you are talking about Lucian Dong from the Starry Entertainment Company."
