Second Marriage novel Chapter 359

Hearing that, Alice didn’t get angry. Instead, she smiled with a raised eyebrow.

“Is that so? I thought your agent David hired me as a designer, not a servant or so. So this is all his fault. It seems that you are going to cancel this cooperation. David, as you were the one who signed the contract, please transfer the contract cancellation fees to my account in time.”

After saying it, she held Yanis’ hand and nodded greetings to Kate with a smile, “Then, thank you for your contract cancellation fees. Let’s go, Yanis.”

Yanis still had no idea what had been happening when Alice pulled her out of the door.

“What was going on?”

David was also shocked. He didn’t expect that Alice was so tough and didn’t seem to care about how her behavior affected her reputation at all.

He thought she would come personally and bow to apologize.

He was shocked by her reaction.

“Is she the designer you have found for me? You told me she was a top-class designer.”

“Sure she is. Alice is really a top designer and you can search for her works on the Internet. But she had a reputation of being unruly when she was abroad. So you should be kinder to her.”

“Excuse me. Who is she? I am an A-list actress. Why should I be kinder to her? I do not believe she can design any top-class works. So let her go.”

“But how about your gown at the release? There’s only a month left. If we look for another designer...”

“Just find another designer at abroad, or buy a ready-made gown. I will not wear whatever she designs. What’s more, I will sue her. Dare she be so arrogant in front of me!”

“Sue her?” David blinked.

“Yes. Didn’t she ask you to pay her the contract cancellation fees? We are taking her to court. So she must not dare to say that again.”

It took some time for Yanis to realize what had happened after she was pulled out of the door by Alice and said, “Alice!” She pulled Alice to stop and asked with staring eyes, “What were you doing just now?”

“As you have seen, I fell out with them.” Alice answered indifferently.

“But now we have offended Kate James. She is a popular actress in the country and she doesn’t look like an easy person to deal with. It seems that she just won’t pay the contract cancellation fees.”

“I know.”

“This is all my fault. I shouldn’t have been a minute late. Although I was angry with her, I don’t want you to suffer from this thing. I’ll apologize to her and make her to let it go.”

Saying that, Yanis shook off Alice’s hand and turned round and went towards the room.

Alice stood right where she was and said coldly with her arms crossed, “Are you going back? I just took you out of it.”

“Or what else can I do? This is our first order since we return from abroad. I fear that it will affect the development your business in the country.”

“Are you going to grovel to everyone who insults you just for the development of my business not being affected? Weren’t you angry when she said those insulting words to you?”

“Yes.” Yanis said angrily and sucked in her bottom lip, “But she gives a lot a money, Alice...”

“Let me ask you a question.” Alice sighed resignedly, “You were a minute late, right?”

Yanis nodded.

“Have you apologized to her?”

“Yes, I have. I said something nice but she ignored me.”

“It doesn’t matter. Anyway, I was late, even if it was a minute late. I realized my fault and apologized to her, but I didn’t expect...”

“You didn’t expect that she didn’t accept your apology and ignored you and called me to come and questioned me, right?”

“Yeah...Although I was angry, I didn’t dare to diss her in front of her. I only dare to complain about it in front of you.”

Hearing what Yanis said, Alice couldn’t help smiling resignedly. She stabbed her finger at Yanis’ forehead and said, “I have no fear to diss those people who insult us.”

“But the order...”

“You know how unruly I am, and it’s not a big loss. What’s more, she was so insulting. We haven’t to be so humble. Let’s go home as Jack is waiting for you at home.”

Saying that, Alice turned around and went ahead. Resignedly, Yanis had to follow her. But she still felt sorry and said, “I still think this is all my fault. I shouldn’t have called you and it has only made things worse.”

“Make yourself easy. Kate James is not an easy person to deal with. Even though you didn’t call me, things would still get worse.”

“Really?” Yanis said.

A man stopped Alice when they were going ahead.

Yanis remembered that he was the assistant director who had misregarded them as fans. She asked immediately, “Can we help you, Assistant Director?”

The assistant director set his sights at Alice’s face. This time he looked not so serious and stared at Alice with a smile.

“I’ve heard that you are a designer from abroad.”

Alice nodded with a raised eyebrow, “Nice to meet you.”

“You are too polite. You have a good image, so do you want to be an actress? I’m not satisfied with one of our supporting actresses. I think you are more suitable for that role. So do you want to try it?”

This was definitely a good chance for any actress. Almost every actress would agree with such an invitation.

However, Alice was not interested at all.

“Thank you for your invitation, but I’m not interested to be an actress.”

Hearing that, the assistant director was a little disappointed, but he quickly found his voice and said, “Aren’t you a designer? I know an actress who is looking for a designer. Do you have any interest in it?”
