Chapter 20 she declined an appointment
Rachel took out her cell phone. It was from Clark?
"Hello?" With some doubts, Rachel answered the phone.
Clark indifferent voice came through to Rachel, "How is your work going? Do you need any help?"
Startled, Rachel quickly replied, "No, thanks. Everything goes well."
"Well? I heard that someone helped you." Clark's voice sounded strange.
Feeling that he might have misunderstood, Rachel explained, "I also just knew that Bill had explained the whole story in a press conference. He probably thinks it's necessary for him to explain it to everyone. In fact, we barely know each other."
Only after answering this did Rachel realize that something was wrong. Why should she explain this to him? She was not in a relationship with Clark.
After a pause, he asked, "Are you free this noon? I want to see you."
After thinking for a while, Rachel replied, "Let's talk about it later. If there's nothing important, I'll call you after work."
After hanging up the phone, Rachel breathed a sigh of relief. Why did Clark ask her out at noon?
Sitting aside, Nancy saw Rachel's absent-minded look and sneered, "What? Didn't you say that he wouldn't mind that? Didn't he just call you to query that?"
As soon as she saw Nancy, Rachel got angry and asked in a cold voice, "Nancy, what on earth do you want to do?"
Nancy raised her eyebrows and said, "What do you think? Of course, I want to act in this new movie!"
"What does it have to do with me that you want to act in the movie?" Rachel asked grumpily.
"Rachel, you are so forgetful, aren't you? You're my assistant. Acting in a movie is related to my work. How come it has nothing to do with you?" Nancy stated.
Stunned, Rachel finally realized she was still Nancy's assistant.
Thinking of this, she took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.
"Tell me, what do you want me to do?" After a while, Rachel asked in a cold voice.
Nancy handed a business card to Rachel and said calmly, "This is the business card of director Tristan Feng. It is said that Bob is in charge of finding investors for the movie, while Tristan is in charge of the filming. Therefore, in addition to Bob, Tristan can also decide what person to choose.
Even though Bob has rejected me, it doesn't mean Tristan won't like me. So what you should do now is to persuade Tristan Feng into letting me take over this role! I believe that he really appreciates me!" Nancy said confidently, as if it would be very easy for her to take off that role.
Staring at the business card in her hand, Rachel got not only director Tristan Feng's work address, but also his residence address, phone number and other information.
"You want me to go to director Tristan Feng's home?" With eyes wide open, Rachel stared at Nancy in disbelief.
A trace of light flashed through Nancy's eyes. "Yes, since you don't want to act in this movie, then you can go and recommend me to director Tristan Feng. I'm not inferior to you in terms of appearance and temperament. I'm absolutely capable of playing this role!"
Rachel said with a cold smile, "Nancy, you are really thinking highly of me! Are you so confident that I can get the role for you?"
"You are my assistant. I asked you to do this, so you must achieve this task!" Nancy was a little impatient and had to suppress Rachel with authority.
Frowning, Rachel asked, "Isn't that what your agent should do? Why don't you go to director Tristan Feng yourself since you really want this role?"
Nancy replied coldly, "If I could handle it myself, why should I ask you to do it?"
"But," Nancy added, "If you can help me to get that role, I can think of reducing the time for you to repay the favor!"
Hearing what she said, Rachel clenched her fists. The condition Nancy offered was very attractive, but she did not know director Tristan Feng. Why would he give that role to Nancy only because her?
Seeing that Rachel was hesitating, Nancy nodded and said, "Yes. If you can help me get this role successfully, I will discuss with my mother and let you end this life as soon as possible!"
With a sneer at the corners of her mouth, Rachel said in an extremely cold voice, "Nancy, do you treat me as a fool? I went to look for the director to be scolded? How can I be so shameless to let director Tristan directly give you the role?"
Not only didn't Nancy get angry, she held her arms and said with a wry smile, "Well, how do you know if you don't have a try? Or do you want to continue to live such a life? As long as you go for director Tristan, no matter what the result is, I will discuss with my mother to shorten your time of being my assistant. What do you think? "
Raising her eyebrows, Rachel asked, "I don't trust you are this kind."
"I have made it clear to you. You can do whatever you want. It's all up to you."
Although Rachel knew there must be a trap in Nancy's heart, what she offered was too tempting. Even if she knew there was a trap, she would still try her best.
"Okay! I will go!"
Nancy's face didn't change at all, as if she had already known the result. "Go ahead," she said with a smile, the corner of her mouth lifted.
Looking at Rachel's receding figure, a sly smile appeared on Nancy's face.
It should not be difficult for Rachel to get this role from director Tristan because of her beautiful appearance?
When she just walked out of the filming site, Rachel's phone rang again.
She took it out and found it was from Clark again.
"Hello?" Rachel said, trying to be patient.
"Is it time to get off work? I'm coming to pick you up," Clark said in a low voice.
With one hand on the phone and the other waving to the taxi, Rachel stood at the roadside. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
"I'm sorry. I'm very busy right now and have to visit director Tristan Feng. His house is very far away from here. I don't think I have time to have lunch with you."
"Director Tristan Feng?" After a pause, Clark asked, "Do you need me to drive you there?"
At this time, a taxi slowly stopped in front of Rachel.
"No, thanks. The taxi has arrived. I have to go!" After hanging up the phone, Rachel got on the taxi quickly and told the location of director Tristan Feng's house to the driver.
In the CEO Office of the Ji group.
Putting down his phone, Clark made an internal call to his assistant, "Get the car ready."
"Boss, there's an important meeting in ten minutes..."
The light in his eyes dimmed. After a while, Clark said in a cold voice, "Get the car ready. Don't let me say it again."
His assistant didn't dare to stop Clark. If he said it again, Clark would definitely fire him.
After more than an hour's drive, Rachel finally arrived at the door of director Tristan Feng's villa.
This place was too remote?
After rubbing her sore waist and numb butt, Rachel couldn't help sighing.
After some thoughts, Rachel decided to call director Tristan first.
"Hello, is this director Tristan Feng? I'm Nancy Yan's assistant. I'm waiting for you outside your door. May I see you, please?" Rachel said, trying to be as polite as possible.
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, and it seemed that he was trying to figure out who Nancy was. A mature male voice came after a dozen seconds, "What do you want to see me about?"
"Director Tristan, here is the thing. I heard that you are preparing a new movie. Nancy takes a fancy to the female supporting role, she hope you can give her an opportunity for audition..."
But she was interrupted before she finished her words. Tristan said, "Opportunity for audition? Then wait outside. I'll ask someone to open the door for you."
Rachel felt Tristan's words were meaningful, but she thought it was a good chance to meet him, so she immediately replied, "Okay, thank you, director Tristan!"
After a while, a servant ran out and opened the door. She led Rachel into the villa.
After entering the well decorated villa, Rachel felt a little uneasy and kept thinking about how to explain to director Tristan Feng?
The servant led her to the large living room and said respectfully, "Miss, here we are." Rachel raised her head and saw a fat middle-aged man sitting on the sofa.
Next to him, there were director Bob Chen and...... Clark.
Stunned by his gaze, Rachel wondered why he was here?
