Chapter 159 Give Me Five Minutes Gerald took Adrianaâs child to Sacramento General Hospital. Because Adriana was injured, Gerald made an emergency appointment for her child and the child was quickly taken to treatment. Then Gerald accompanied Adriana to simply bandage her wound.
Fortunately, Adriana was not badly hurt. After the doctor bound up her forehead, she put on a mask and sunglasses.
Anyway, Adriana was still a star. In order not to cause chaos, she covered her face.
After dressing up, she quickly walked to her childâs ward. Seeing that her child was transfusing and the condition was stabilized, she was relieved.
Adriana stood up, glanced at Gerald, and said, âThank you very much!â
âNever mind. Cassidy is too arrogant. I didnât want to see her bully you, so I helped you,â Gerald waved his hand and said, âCassidy will definitely ask you to compensate her, and the compensation will be huge. Youâd better be prepared.â
Adriana looked terrible. âHow much do you think Cassidy will ask me to pay for it?â
âMore than 160 thousand dollars,â Gerald said.
For stars, especially those who had been popular, the money was nothing at all.
However, Gerald was surprised that when Adriana heard this, she trembled slightly and said, âWhat? The money was too much.â
âDonât you have enough money?â Gerald asked in surprise.
âI...â Adriana sighed and said, âIn the past, money was nothing to me. But I really do not have much money now... More than 160 thousand dollars...â
While Adriana and Gerald were talking, a voice sounded from the door of the ward. âExcuse me, who is Ms.
Maycock?â
Adriana quickly stood up, took off her sunglasses, and said, âI am!â
The doctor rolled her eyes at Adriana. Then she looked outside and said politely, âThey are here!â
Soon, Gerald saw a tall figure walking over. Behind the woman, Fisher followed her and he brought many bodyguards with him.
They walked into the ward and Cassidy took off her sunglasses. When she saw Gerald, she was a little surprised.
Cassidy looked at Gerald and asked, âMr. Kenneth, I heard from the people of Universe Group that you are Mr. Hansonâs assistant. He asked you to bid 8.3 million dollars for the painting at the auction last time, right?â
Gerald frowned slightly.
Obviously, Cassidy might know some senior executives of Universe Group and asked them about Geraldâs background just now.
Gerald touched his nose and said, âSomewhat. Whatâs wrong?â
âNothing,â Cassidy glanced at Gerald and said, âI just want to tell you that donât participate in things that have nothing to do with you, or you will lose your job. Although your father is the vice president of Universe Group, he has no real power and canât protect you!â
Gerald raised his eyebrows slightly.
Cassidy is threatening me!
She is snobbish. Before she investigated my background, she was very polite to me. But now, her tone is completely different.
She talks to me arrogantly and disdainfully!
Then Cassidy stretched out a hand and Fisher quickly handed her a list. She held the list and placed it in front of Adriana.
Cassidy said indifferently, âThe police said you should take full responsibility for the accident. I have taken my car to the 4S shop for maintenance. I know you donât have much money, so you only need to pay me 320 thousand dollars. You should have enough money, right?â
Adriana looked terrible. She looked at Cassidy with a bitter smile and said, âI donât have that much money.
Can I ask the insurance company to compensate...â
âI donât have the time to do this! You have been in the entertainment industry for so many years and you used to be famous. I donât believe you donât even have 320 thousand dollars,â Cassidy asked.
Gerald frowned. âWhy not follow the due process? Her car is insured, and the accident was...â
âIt has nothing to do with you!â Cassidy said differently, âI just reminded you. By the way, your boss is my friend. Recently, Universe Group has asked me to endorse its products. At the same time, we may have cooperation in film and television. You are just an assistant president. If I want to fire you, I just need to make a phone call.â
âOK,â Gerald smiled and said, âIf I guess correctly, you deliberately caused this accident. You drove in front and found that Adriana was driving behind you, so you deliberately accelerated and decelerated. Then, when she was in a hurry to overtake you, you caused this accident, right?â
âNonsense!â Cassidy was shocked!
Gerald smiled and said, âWhy not concede an inch? Itâs not easy for Adriana to take care of the child alone.
You shouldnât hold her accountable.â
âWhy must I do this?â Cassidy chuckled. She looked at Gerald with disdain and said, âWhen you bid the painting, I thought you were a big shot and I could hold Adriana accountable for you. After all, 320 thousand dollars is nothing to me. I can earn it by singing one or two songs on the stage. However, you are just an assistant.â
Then Cassidy looked at Adriana, who was panicked. âAdriana, if you kneel to me and apologize to me, maybe I can let you go.â
When Adriana heard this, she frowned!
Gerald didnât know what happened between Adriana and Cassidy. Cassidy pretended to be kind, but in fact, she was very mean, which made him sick.
Gerald said indifferently, âYou really are a good actor. Although Iâm not a big shot, I can make Universe Group refuse to cooperate with you!â
Cassidy said disdainfully, âThatâs ridiculous! You are just an assistant president!â
Gerald chuckled, took out his phone, and found Leandroâs phone number.
At this time, Cassidy also took out her phone. She looked at Gerald and said, âYouâll be fired!â
Almost at the same time, Cassidy and Gerald made a call.
Soon, Cassidy dialed the phone. She said in a delicate tone, âMr. Hawthorne, do you remember Gerald? asked you to investigate him before. He is Mr. Hansonâs assistant. He is always targeting me. We are about to become partners, and he still treats me like this, which makes me unhappy.â
âWell, just fire him!â Cassidy looked at Gerald and sneered, âIf you do this, I can reduce the endorsement fee!â
âOkay!â Then she hung up the phone and looked at Gerald provocatively. âYou are over!â
When Adriana heard this, she looked terrible. Gerald had saved her child. If he lost his job because of this, Adriana would feel guilty.
âI will kneel to you...â
Gerald stopped Adriana and then asked the person who answered his call, âWhy did you take so long to answer my call!â
âIâm dealing with the Kenneth family. Caspian is begging me,â Leandro said happily, âWhatâs up?â
âWill Cassidy endorse the companyâs products?â Gerald asked.
âYes. She will endorse our companyâs jewelry. We will invest in a big movie recently, and let her be the heroine. She is popular and beautiful and has many fans. Why do you ask this? Do you like her? If you like her, I will let her have sex with you,â Leandro said vulgarly.
Gerald was speechless.
Then he looked at Cassidyâs enchanting figure and chuckled, âNo need. If the company has not signed a contract with Cassidy, then donât cooperate with her!â
âWhat?â Leandro was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, âOkay, Iâll deal with it! Give me five minutes!*
Then Gerald hung up the phone!
Cassidy looked at Gerald and said, âThatâs ridiculous! Youâre nothing!â
Gerald smiled at her and said, âJust give me five minutes!â
