Just then, the producer saw Camille Strickland and Valda Theller and waved to them.
âCome on, letâs go and say hello,â Valda Theller said before taking her best friend by the hand and walking toward the producer.
Watching Valda Theller walking over, Raymond Bowman fell into a trance. She wore a long mint green dress today. Her long hair was tied up in a neat ponytail. She looked the way she did in school.
In particular, the faint dark eye circles under her eyes reminded him of the time when he often saw her with dark eye circles back then. When he asked her if she did not sleep well, she would yawn and say that she had been drawing comics and catching up on manuscripts.
âIs it necessary to work so hard on comics?â he had asked at the time.
âYou wonât find it hard if itâs what you like.â She gave a broad smile. Although she had dark eye circles, there was a sparkle in her eyes whenever she spoke about comics and the stories.
she created.
They looked so bright and beautiful.
âHere, let me introduce you to CEO Raymond Bowman, Mr.
Bowman is the one who made the additional investment in our film. With his investment, our film can become better,â the producer introduced with a laugh.
Valda Theller and Camille Strickland were shocked. Although they already knew that someone had made an additional investment in the film, they did not expect it to be Raymond Bowman.
Was it a coincidence, or was it Raymond Bowmanâs intention?
Valda Thellerâs eyes were instantly full of alarm as she looked at Raymond Bowman.
âThese twoâ¦â
The producer was about to introduce Valda Theller and Camille Strickland when Raymond Bowman said, âItâs alright. I know Valda and Camille. We used to go to the same school.â
The producer smiled. âWhat a coincidence. This is your reunion, then.â
âYeah, itâs not easy for us to be reunited.â Raymond Bowman chuckled.
Valda Theller maintained a friendly smile.
After a casual chat about some unimportant things, the producer left with several others, leaving only Raymond Bowman, Valda Theller, and Camille Strickland.
Camille Stricklandâs fake smile was gone immediately.
âRaymond Bowman, whatâs the meaning of this?â
âI donât know what you mean by that,â Raymond Bowman asked in reply.
âWhy did you invest in this film?â Camille Strickland asked.
âYou should thank me for investing. Otherwise, you wouldnât have been able to afford Gloriaâs salary at all,â said Raymond Bowman.
Camille Strickland did not know what to say for a moment.
âThank you for investing in the film, Mr. Bowman,â Valda Theller said indifferently. Then, she wanted to pull Camille Strickland and leave.
Raymond Bowman raised his hand to stop her and said, âI mean no harm in investing in this film. I only hope that the film based on your original work can be a success. I sincerely apologize for what happened.â
A/A Valda Theller said, âI told you. I accept your apology but that doesnât megh I forgive you Mr Bowman, investing in the film was your decision Whether you make or lisna money is alen your matter I donât need you to invest in anything because of 1. I donât think we have that kind of relationshipâ
Camille Strickland snorted and said. âA sincers apology? Why didnât you explain to the whole school why you hurt Valda like that, then? How dare you apologize now?â
Raymond Bowmanâs expression froze.
