The Return of the Disguised Princess

The Return of the Disguised Princess Chapter 246

Chapter 246 Hit the Jackpot?

Upon knowing this, Amelie’s heart sank to the depths.

“Really? Is it just a chance encounter?”

Erica asked tentatively.

“Yes, of course…”

Amelie said with a polite smile.

“Well, since that’s the case, I won’t gossip any further. It’s my honor to meet you today, Ms.

Mullen.”

Erica said with a smile. Then she got up and picked up the project proposal from the table.

“Here are some details about our cooperation this time. You can take a look.”

Amelie glanced at the large title on the document before reaching out to pick it up.

“Ms. Brennan, if I may ask, I am curious why you trust Mr. Evans’s suggestion so much.”

Amelie had concerns in her heart, so she asked.

“Mr. Evans and I have been friends for many years. My magazine company can have its current status mostly

thanks to his help, so he can be considered my discoverer.”

Erica didn’t hide anything and said calmly.

“Really?”

Amelie looked tentatively at the woman in front of her, but found that her expression remained

unchanged.

Her interaction with Mr. Evans wasn’t very deep, not as close as they thought it to be.

It was very strange that a man who met by chance would favor her so much and introduce her to

work many times.

Her doubts grew deeper and deeper.

Amelie thought that when she was in the ward before, this man mentioned to her that he wanted her to play the

leading actress, and now he introduced the shooting of this magazine to her. After much thought, she couldn’t ease

her doubts.

Ms. Mullen, are you hesitating? Do you think I’m lying to you?”

“Of course not, Ms. Brennan. I’m a little curious. It’s true that Mr. Evans and I met by chance, but he has helped me

many times. So I’d like to understand more clearly. What did he say about this

shoot?”

Upon hearing this, Erica smiled and made a look of sudden realization.

“Oh, are you worried that Mr. Evans has ulterior motives? Don’t worry too much. He is a big customer. He has

helped many other people, and many entertainers have become famous under his guidance. In my opinion, he

must have seen your talents and thought that you’re suitable for acting and the entertainment industry. That’s why

he helps you so much. Don’t overthink it. Just focus on your work.”

Amelie was slightly taken aback when she heard this. Although she still had concerns in her heart, she didn’t say

anything further.

After all, this was an opportunity, and it seemed to be genuine.

So she took a pen and signed the contract, and thus reached cooperation.

“Ms. Mullen, the shooting will be in two days. We originally planned to finish the shooting in two days. I believe there

must be no problem with you, right?”

Amelie nodded quickly.

“Ms. Brennan, no worry. There should be no problem.”

“OK, I’ll see you in two days. If you have any questions, feel free to call.”

Amelie left the office, and when she got downstairs, she still felt a little unreal.

“Amelie, what’s the matter? You are so preoccupied. Are you worried about this cooperation?”

“Yes, what do you think the purpose of Mr. Evans is? Is it true that, as Erica said, he simply believes that I have

talents, so he invests in me?”

“It’s quite possible, Amelie. Don’t forget that the entertainment industry is full of opportunistic people. Many

directors and producers are keen to promote newcomers or emerging entertainers who show immense potential. I

believe Mr. Evans’s actions are no different. He recognized your talent and treated you so favorably. Don’t worry,

we already have Mr. Byron supporting us.”

“Why are you mentioning him all of a sudden?”

Amelie’s expression immediately became somewhat unnatural.

“What’s wrong? Did I upset you by mentioning Mr. Byron? But from where I’m standing, you seem to be feeling

shy.”

Well, stop talking about it. Let’s go back to the company now. Lamont probably doesn’t know about this yet. I’ll tell

him and ask him to keep an eye out for Mr. Evans. Let’s see what kind of person Mr. Evans really is.”

“Amelie, you just told me not to mention Mr. Byron, but now you’re the one bringing him up.”

Belen said deliberately.

“Okay, stop teasing me. Let’s go.”

Then they got into the car.

Back to the company, Lamont was in a meeting.

Not wanting to disturb him, she went to the office and waited for him.

The sp*cious office was very quiet, and she was really bored, so she picked up a magazine and read

it.

About ten minutes later, the door of the office was opened.

She thought it was Lamont who had returned, so she quickly got up to greet him.

But it was Miriam standing at the door.

“What are you doing here?”

Miriam looked at Amelie and felt displeased.

“I’m here to see Mr. Byron.”

“Mr. Byron is in a meeting, and it will probably be very late. Why don’t you go back first?”

Miriam wanted to drive her away, but Amelie was no fool and could naturally sense the resentment

towards her.

“I’ll just wait here. We’re going out for dinner later.”

Amelie said this on purpose in order to annoy Miriam.

Sure enough, Miriam’s expression was very unpleasant. She put the document in her hand on the table, and glared

at her before closing the door and leaving.

Amelie shrugged indifferently, pretending that she didn’t see it all.

About half an hour passed before the meeting ended.

When Lamont saw Amelie sitting on the sofa, a smile appeared on his serious face.

“How did you come here?”

Of course I came to see you, and I have something to tell you.”

“What’s the matter?”

“You know, I went to the magazine company today. You would never guess who introduced me to the editor-in-

chief.”

Amelie put down the magazine, walked up to him, and looked at him mysteriously.

“Who is it?”

“It’s Mr. Evans. He is quite mysterious. I really can’t figure out why he would introduce me to Ms. Brennan and give

me such a good opportunity. So I’m a little worried and you have to investigate

him for me.”

Mr. Evans?

Lamont’s expression became very unpleasant. He leaned on the desk and his gaze turned somewhat

cold.

“What’s wrong? Did something happen between the two of you?”

Amelie was curious, looking at his reaction.

“No. It’s just that this Mr. Evans has always been mysterious. Now he always deliberately approaches you. He must

have other purposes.”

“Of course I know this. I originally wanted to refuse this cooperation, but now I don’t have any other work, so I

agreed after much deliberation. You won’t be angry with me, will you?”

Amelie took his hand and asked tentatively.

“Why would I be angry? It’s your job, and I’ll fully support you. As for Mr. Evans, I’ll help you investigate clearly. You

just need to keep a distance from him in the future, and leave the problems

to me.”
