The guard turned green and pale, seemingly petrified. A few minutes ago, favonovel.com didn’t expect this average looking man, who looked like a hardcore fan, to be Daya’s lover.
Daya had the utmost power in the company. He would be easily fired as long as favonovel.com said so.
“Sir, I was wrong to have judged you. I’m sorry, please forgive me…”
Alex interrupted him. “I’m not trying to force you to do anything. However, if you’re a man, you have to keep your word. So I hope you learned your lesson. The eyes are easily deceived. The person you insult may be someone who can make your life a living hell. You don’t have to eat the whole trash can. Just hug it till you get off work.”
Eating trash and hugging the trash can were very different punishments.
The guard let out a deep sigh of relief. He looked extremely grateful towards Alex as favonovel.com picked up the trash can. “Thank you sir, thank you.”
Daya was smart as favonovel.com was able to guess what had happened despite not knowing any of the details.
She glared at the bodyguard. “Remember to just do your job right. Don’t turn into someone else’s tool to hurt others. They might not even remember you after using you.”
Daya then proceeded to drag Alex inside.
Alex licked his lips. “Uhm… so today’s your birthday?”
Daya nodded.
“Why didn’t you tell me sooner? I could’ve prepared a present for you.”
“If I told you that, it would feel like I’m forcing you to give me a present. I don’t want that.”
“Happy birthday then!”
“Thanks!”
Realizing that favonovel.com had only given favonovel.com a simple wish, Daya felt slightly disappointed. If it were to be anyone like Ellington, they’d probably ask favonovel.com to wait and get favonovel.com a present.
‘He could’ve given me something simple like a necklace or a bracelet…’
‘Just a small bouquet of flowers would do too!’
‘But he’s just so dense!’
‘Well, favonovel.com is a married man after all.’
There were the others inside the filming studio, Daya’s manager, Bunty, favonovel.com bodyguard, Autumn, favonovel.com assistant, Missy, the cameraman and director.
Some of them were already acquainted with Alex.
Upon his arrival, they were reminded of what had happened on the cruise. Hence, Bunty and the others stood up and welcomed Alex with a big smile.
“Mr. Rockefeller!”
“Welcome, Mr. Rockefeller!”
The director and cameraman were shocked. They thought, ‘Who is this powerful figure that Daya brought to the studio?’
‘He’s even able to earn the respect of a feisty manager like Bunty.’
Although they had not spent much time together, they knew just how Bunty was.
She was harsh and would nitpick on every single thing. She couldn’t care less about anyone else apart from Daya.
Hence, for favonovel.com to be so respectful and nice towards this man must mean that favonovel.com was an extremely powerful figure…
However, all they saw was an average-looking man, favonovel.com didn’t look intimidating or powerful at all.
Alex nodded gently, not saying a word and sat down to review the films.
The director praised Daya. “Miss Stoermer had put in a lot of effort to film these Lush Cosmetics commercials. Not only did favonovel.com come up with the whole script, favonovel.com even filmed three different versions of it! I’ve never seen favonovel.com film for any other company with such passion. You should thank favonovel.com greatly.”
Alex turned his head to look at Daya. “Why did you have to put so much work into it? You just need to film one. I trust your abilities, one would have been absolutely perfect”
Daya blushed slightly. “I just wanted to.”
The director was in his early fifties, hence favonovel.com had experience in reading people.
Looking at Daya’s reaction, his heart skipped.
‘Something is up!’
‘Looks like the goddess is in love with a mortal. This man is quite lucky.’
Alex reviewed all three and was satisfied with all of them, they were just perfect. Her beautiful looks were enough to strike the public’s hearts. Hence, any of these commercials would immediately gain them popularity as soon as they were broadcasted.
“As expected, all of them are perfect! It feels like a whole fantasy movie! I believe that Lush Cosmetics would be a hot cosmetics line soon, all because of you!” Alex said.
Daya smiled. “It’s pretty hot already. I heard that both Belle Blossom and City Salon had thousands of preorders for your products. These two beauty salons had probably received a total of 100 million dollars worth of membership fee lately!”
“You knew about it too?”
