Returning from the Dead Chapter 1970
Blushing hard, Vivian pushed him aside.
It didn’t take long before the two of them left the school’s premises. They didn’t go on a date or anything, though. Instead, they went to the production company Vivian founded because she recently received a new script and needed to discuss the matter with the other managers.
Kurt drove steadily to the office.
Vivian said, “The script involved is a documentary that highlights rural traditions all around the world, so it will be more challenging.”
“Traditions?”
Kurt turned to her.
“Does that mean you’ll have to travel to shoot the video?”
“If everything goes smoothly, then probably. The industry had never done something similar before, so I think I will come up with some events and competitions for everyone to bond in. That way, we can add a modern twist to the show, then broadcast it over several episodes. My guess is that It will be rather incredible,” said Vivian with a hopeful smile on her as she read through the content.
She was undeniably talented. It was just an ordinary documentary, but she managed to find a way to turn it into a highly profitable project. If her dad was there, he would certainly compliment her on it.
Kurt, however, frowned deeply after hearing that plan.
If the footage had to be shot in different locations all over the world, then that meant Vivian wouldn’t be staying put in one place. She would have to travel the world as well. She will travel to foreign, faraway countries all by herself…
The thought of it soured Kurt’s mood, which had just gotten better.
It was as he guessed. When they reached the office, Vivian led her team into the conference room to discuss the matter. Kurt waited for about two hours, but she was still occupied.
/ guess their discussion is getting heated.
Kurt got up. He was going to head out to get some fresh air.
“Huh? Mr. Lopez, are you leaving? Is something wrong?”
An assistant working in Vivian’s office bumped into him when he left the room, so she asked in a concerned tone.
Kurt glanced at her.
“Nothing is wrong. I’m just heading out for some fresh air.”
“I see. It’s because Ms. Hayes’ meeting ran long again, isn’t it? It’s fine. A cafe was recently opened in the mall located right next door. Would you like to go for a cup of coffee? I can keep you company”
Even as an assistant, she was too nice to her boss’ boyfriend.
Kurt hadn’t even replied before someone from the administration department mercilessly dissed, “That doesn’t sound right, Amy. Why would Mr. Lopez need your company to go get coffee?”
“Uh…”
“Besides, you’re the boss’ assistant, so shouldn’t you go to that cafe and buy Mr. Lopez a cup? Why would you make him walk with you?”
Those words hit the bull’s eye.
Amy blushed red immediately. She didn’t even have the guts to say another word before she kept her head down and left.
Kurt was speechless.
“Mr. Lopez, what kind of beverage would you like? I’ll go buy It for you. I’m sure Ms. Hayes’ meeting will end soon. Please be patient just a little longer.”
The person who chased the assistant away hurried to Kurt’s side and asked him to wait a little longer. He even offered to buy him some refreshments.
Vivian truly is amazing. She founded an incredible company, and these people… they might be her employees on paper, but they love her and protect her.
Kurt smiled.
“There’s no need for that. I am simply stepping out to make a call. Please proceed with your work and just ignore me.”
“Ah, I see. Okay, then I’ll get back to my desk. If you need anything at all, please let me know,” said the manager from the administration department before chuckling and leaving.
I need to keep an eye out. It’s obvious that the boss and her boyfriend have been arguing. She has always been cheery, but she clocked in lately with a scowl on her face. The boyfriend who had always followed her around was nowhere to be seen as well.
Those were the common thoughts that everyone in the office had.
That was also why Amy, the malicious assistant from earlier, tried to get in between them and cause trouble.
The manager returned to his desk soon after.
Kurt made his way to the exit as well. He fished his phone out of his pocket because someone had actually been calling him.
“Hello?”
“Hello, Mr. Lopez. Are you free now? Ms. Mikaela Weasley is here in Atlantius, so would you mind dropping by and talking to her?”
No one could’ve imagined it, but the call actually came from the best construction company in the world, PCT Development. The Ms. Mikaela Weasley mentioned was one of the best architects out there.
Kurt was stunned in place.
“She is here?”
“Yes. She truly admires your work and was pleasantly surprised when she collaborated with you on the museum project in Gronga. Hence, she specifically came here to discuss the matter in detail with you. Please grant her this wish.”
The most famous architect in the world had used the word “please” and referred to the meeting as a wish.
All that showed just how much she wanted to work with him.
Unfortunately, Kurt heard some noise from the conference room and guessed that the meeting was ending, so he turned her down.
“I am so sorry. Please thank Ms. Weasley for extending the invitation, but I won’t be able to make it. Goodbye.”
Kurt hung up soon after. He turned around and entered the office.
