Editor: Henyee Translations
"Why? Didn’t I say I could handle this?" Miranda turned to her manager as she listened to him.
"I just mentioned it. I didn’t ask President Owen for help. What are you anxious about? Besides, do you think you’re still the famous singer who was praised by everyone?" Miranda’s manager said anxiously.
Seeing that the atmosphere between the two of them was not right, Bruce coughed and said, "Miss Miranda, don’t be angry. This matter really started because of us. If the CEO hadn’t reported the investigation to you, maybe you wouldn’t have encountered such a thing, so if you need help, just let me know."
"Bruce, what are you talking about? I’m very grateful to President Owen for telling me the investigation report, so I don’t want to trouble you guys anymore," Miranda said to Bruce.
"Miranda, what are you talking about? Can you solve it yourself? He wants three million. Do you have that much money?" The manager couldn’t help but say.
"Didn’t you say you would think of a way? Why else would I want you as my manager?" Miranda said to her manager.
"You, you’re really..." Seeing Miranda act like this, the manager said with an unpleasant attitude and turned to sit in the car.
"I’m sorry, Bruce, to let you see this scene," Miranda said with a forced smile while looking at Bruce again.
"It’s nothing, Miss Miranda. You don’t have to feel bad about meeting someone like Eric. If you need help, you can tell me or the CEO," Bruce said while barely controlling his emotions.
To be honest, he had been shocked when he found out today that Eric had extorted three million from Miranda. He had not expected Eric to do such a thing. Immediately, he felt worried. He wanted to help Miranda resolve the matter immediately, but he was in no position to do so.
"Can you solve it?" Miranda listened to Bruce and looked up at him before continuing, "I’m sorry, I didn’t mean anything else. It’s just that this is really not a small matter. I don’t want you to get involved. Eric isn’t a good person. I’ll solve it myself."
When he heard Miranda’s words, Eric’s heart skipped another beat.
"I’ll get going first, Bruce. There’s a shoot in the afternoon," Miranda said quickly when she saw Bruce hesitate. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
"Well, goodbye, Miss Miranda," Bruce finally said while listening to Miranda.
After sending Miranda away, Bruce stood downstairs for a long time before going upstairs.
"Miss Miranda is gone?" Owen said when he saw Bruce standing in front of his seat while looking distracted.
"Yes, let’s go," Bruce said with a nod.
"What is it? Are you worried about the matter with Eric?" Seeing Bruce act like this, Owen said, "Don’t worry. If Miranda really can’t solve it, I’ll help her."
"Thank you, CEO," Bruce said with a smile as he listened to Owen.
"Well, there’s nothing much going on at the office today, so Anita and I will go home first," Owen said while glancing at Bruce again.
"Yes, okay." Bruce nodded and said nothing else. He sat in his seat and started working.
Before Owen left, he turned to look at Bruce again. Seeing that Bruce was busy and seemed fine, and since Anita was still waiting for him downstairs, he stopped worrying and turned to go downstairs.
When Owen left, Bruce’s expression changed again.
Actually, what he had just said wasn’t his true thoughts. He was indeed very worried about Miranda. He was afraid that Eric would do something else to hurt Miranda.
Although he didn’t have three million and couldn’t help Miranda get the copyright to the song, he could do something else. Bruce sat in his seat and thought about it in a daze. He just didn’t know what would happen if President Owen found out.
But he couldn’t care less. After thinking about it, he took out his phone.
When he was investigating Eric, the private detective he contacted could also do some other things, such as "threats, intimidation", as long as the money was paid.
Bruce was indeed quite fast. By about eight in the evening, the private detective had sent Eric’s address. He looked at the address on his phone and waited at the door with a few people.
Eric had been waiting for Miranda to reply to him for the past two days. He felt that things should be foolproof. After all, Miranda was probably afraid that the matter would be exposed and affect her reputation again. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
So he was completely relieved. He had been fooling around outside for the past few days. He had spent almost all of his money today, so he came back a little early.
He opened the door slowly, but was pressed to the ground before he could touch the light switch.
